Serenity and Halo Testnet are activated
For those who want to join and interact with the Aura Network's outstanding features in its early stages of development, Serenity Testnet is the genuine recommendation for you. It is a stable environment for users and developers to try out Aura Network's features as our team and selected partners are the validators.
About Halo Testnet, it is an open and experimental environment just for validators to come and play with the Cosmos modules! Client testing, security and performance benchmarking are the key activities you can examine with Halo Testnet. We don't recommend you run applications on Halo Testnet because it will be reset regularly.
These Testnets are very exciting as they pave the way for our next significant milestone of launching the Staging Network (Euphoria), where Aura Network will unlock more features and use cases!
