First run solana-test-validator in a separate terminal before running solana airdrop

If you'd like to switch to devnet, run solana config set --url devnet or solana config set -u d. Note on devnet you can only request to airdrop 2 sol at a time.

If at any time you'd like to check what cluster you're on, run solana config get

  • I think testnet is generally used by validators, so airdropping might be disabled? docs.solana.com/clusters#testnet
