Could you elaborate on the concept of a TESTNET bitcoin? I'm curious to understand how it differs from the main Bitcoin network. Is it a separate network used for testing purposes? If so, how does it mimic the real-world transactions and behavior of bitcoin? What are the key benefits of utilizing a TESTNET for bitcoin developers and enthusiasts? Furthermore, is the currency used on a TESTNET interchangeable with real bitcoin, or are they entirely separate entities? Clarifying these points would greatly assist in my comprehension of the TESTNET bitcoin concept.
