We launched season 1 of our community testing program on January 15, 2024. and it was a huge success! We had an amazing level of participation with over 200,000 contributors just two weeks into Season 1. Our program included five awesome Dapps: Tethys, Hummus, Midas Games, Netswap, and LeagueTech.
Season 2 started on February 6, 2024, and lasted for two weeks until February 18. The season introduced two exciting new features: "Spin The Wheel", where users could earn points by purchasing spins, and Enki, a Metis-native Liquid Staking Tokens (LST) platform. By the end of the season, more than 301,000 people had participated, with over 11 million transactions made on the testnet. The community testing efforts helped to accumulate an impressive total of 4.6 billion points.
During the past community testing phases, the main objective was to enhance user engagement with participating Dapps on the Sepolia Testnet. This initiative was of great help to the Metis developers as it enabled them to conduct comprehensive stress tests on the Decentralized Sequencer while also rewarding community testers for their valuable contributions.
