Insufficient funds on bscTestnet when running migrate function on Truffle despite having .5 BNB in the contract account

Question

The test.net transaction is not going through. Do I need to adjust the gas or add more BNB?

I didn't think I have to convert BNB but to ETH but the output I get says that the contract address has 0 wei. I ran truffle migrate --reset -.network bscTes.net. I configured the truffle-js file and it doesn't show any errors.

Answer 1

I figured it out. The tes.net URL in the truffle-config.js file should have been:

https://data-seed-prebsc-1-s1.binance.org:8545/ To view the current balance on Metamask I added the "tBNB" symbol and it worked fine. The newer https://data-seed-prebsc-2-s3.binance.org:8545/ was not needed.
