Enter the Testnet Arena
Stress-test Aztec's decentralized future. Slash bad actors.
Propose, attest, and govern — the training wheels are coming off.
Fully Decentralized From Day 1
Aztec is bringing programmable end-to-end privacy to Ethereum, powered by a fully decentralized, permisionless network of sequencers and provers. The testnet is designed to test all the decentralization mechanisms to ensure the network is fully in the hands of the community.
Slashing
Slashing on Aztec is a critical security mechanism that allows sequencers to penalizes others who fail to stay online or attempt malicious activity. For the testnet, all the slashing mechanisms are being tested to prepare them for real-world conditions and ensure unreliable sequencers are removed quickly and fairly.
Governance
Aztec's decentralized governance system is being put to the test—where sequencers take full control of proposing, voting on, and executing network upgrades. Testing of the full governance system ensures that the community can steer the protocol's future and is ready to launch the first fully decentralized L2 on Ethereum.
