What is the Testnet?

The Testnet is where we try out all of Nimiq’s new features before they are released.

This way, we test them thoroughly in a realistic environment to make sure they work properly. As we use it to test the security of new apps and features, you can also use it to try out crypto for yourself, no strings attached.

In short, the Testnet is the place to try and break things before going to the Mainnet.
