Community, we’re extremely grateful for your activity, support, and patience: it’s been an amazing testnet journey with over 2,000,000+ unique wallets fueling Prom and 20,000,000+ transactions already hit.
We are happy to announce that we’re almost ready to move to the second stage of the testnet that will be shortly followed with a mainnet launch.
In this article you will learn all the key points regarding the updates we’re preparing, the inclusion of V1 testnet points into the updated version, and reward distribution.
Key Details & FAQ
The V2 of the Testnet will be launched on September 9th, 10:00 UTC and you can access the testnet dashboard using the same link as previously using your regular testnet wallet. The V2 will have the same logic and mechanics as V1: you will be able to proceed with the list of tasks and earn achievements for the overall point boost.
However, for everyone to have a smooth onboarding experience and quickly get a grip of all the updates, let’s go through the list of possible questions you might have regarding the Testnet V2.
Q: How Do I Connect to Testnet V2?
A: Make sure you connect to Prom Testnet V2 by using “Add to Metamask” button on prom.io interface or adding the chain manually with the following network information:
Please note that the network information for V2 has changed since V1. For the correct testnet participation make sure you re-connect to Prom Network by using the details above.
Q: I’ve been a testnet participant for a long time and want to check if my progress from V1 is saved. Do I need to take any additional steps?
A: No, you don’t need to take any additional steps to restore your progress. Connect to the network and access the dashboard with the previously used address. Your testnet points will be automatically visible on the dashboard. The points you get during the V2 stage will be included into your individual overall point count and both influence your total campaign reward.
Q: What about achievements: do I need to go through them once again or is my multiplier saved from V1?
A: Same as with overall point count, your achievements from V1 are saved and you don’t need to restore your multiplier manually. Testnet V2 will include some new achievements to get though, so we welcome all participants to increase their multipliers by completing new tasks (we will highlight them further in the article).
Q: What about testnet balances?
A: Testnet balances from V1 are, unfortunately, won’t be restored. However, you can claim testnet PROM in the same manner as during V1 by using Prom Testnet Faucet. The testnet points for claiming PROM through faucet are saved.
Q: How do I access the Testnet Explorer for tracking V2 transactions and overall progress?
A: The link for accessing Explorer has not changed, you can enter testnet.promscan.io to get detailed information.
Q: Are there any changes in products related to the testnet: Prom Forge, Marketplace, Prom Button Game?
A: You can access all the related products by using the same links as before. Good news, you can start afresh with the Prom Button Game: with the launch of V2 you start with 10 attempts to earn PROM and hit the last button to get a grand prize of 100 PROM.
Q: Are there any changes to the DAO Validator Campaign due to the re-launch of the testnet?
A: The Validator campaign is ongoing and hasn’t changed: we continue to review your content entries and all of the leaderboard positions are maintained. Same with the number of testnet achievements you get from completing social tasks on Zealy: they are restored on testnet V2 and you don’t need to complete them all over again.
Achievements and Missions Updates
Main twist: we’re breaking the borders of the testnet and adding new ways of interacting with our network.
Testnet V2 will include 5 completely new achievements related to 2 new products built on Prom and an updated task for trading volume. As usual, achievements will work as multipliers.
If you’re following our announcements, you are already familiar with V60, the first DEX on Prom, and the first new product you will explore via testnet. Quick recap: V60 is a fully decentralized AMM-powered DEX leveraging capabilities of Prom L2 solutions to ensure the lightning speed and lower transaction costs. Participants will be welcome to test out the trading features of the platform and get additional achievement for activity.
Second product is a completely new one, yet to be fully revealed. Just to give you a hint for now, you will be able to explore Rektme, the first platform for launching and exploring memecoins on Prom with multiple options for token customization and keeping your meme path transparent, and user-friendly. Your Rektme journey will also be diversified with testing out the platform’s mini app on Telegram and getting special REKT points. More products = more fun.
We will gradually update you with more info on the products for a smooth onboarding.
Reward Distribution
One of the most asked questions among our testnet participants: the reward distribution for both Delegate Campaign and Validator Campaign will start alongside with the Governance Portal launch, approximately two weeks after the mainnet launch. A quick recap: the Governance Portal will gear up the Prom DAO functioning, uniting Delegates and Validators in a decentralized decision making.
The reward distribution mechanics have not changed, you can learn more about the process in the core articles dedicated to the ongoing campaigns: Delegate Campaign and Validator Campaign.

Exploring what stands behind one of the main terms associated with Layer 2 solutions and what it means for the modern blockchain landscape.
📍Core Description:
Blockchain interoperability refers to the ability of different networks to communicate and seamlessly interact with each other.
Interoperability enables diverse blockchains to transfer assets, data, and information across one another.
📍Why It Matters:
Interoperability enhances liquidity by allowing assets to move freely between different networks and fosters innovation by enabling developers to leverage functionalities from multiple networks.
This connectivity reduces fragmentation, allowing users to benefit from the strengths of various networks without being locked into one.
📍Role of L2 Solutions:
L2 solutions play a crucial role in enhancing blockchain interoperability. They alleviate congestion on the main blockchain and often include mechanisms for cross-chain communication, helping bridge different L1.
This increases scalability and efficiency and supports interoperability by facilitating smoother, faster, and more cost-effective exchanges between blockchains.
