Testnet1 is a cutting edge highly breakable in-flux testnet we use to test new features. If you do join, please take the time to report any bugs.
Joining Nimbus Testnet 1
Before following the instructions below, please make sure you have Go installed. Follow official instructions and make sure it’s above version 1.12. This is required because we build the Libp2p Go daemon. You also need git-lfs installed - on Windows that’s a command documented below, on other operating systems it can be installed using your system’s package manager (e.g. sudo apt-get install git-lfs).
