# Appendix III: Using Bitcoin Regtest
|
|
|
|
The majority of this course presumes that you will either use the Mainnet or Testnet. However, those aren't the only choices. While developing Bitcoin applications, you might want to keep your applications isolated from these public blockchains. You can create a Blockchain from scratch using the Regtest, which has one other major advantage over Testnet: you choose when to create new blocks, so you have complete control over the environment.
