We are excited to introduce the Blockspace Race, Celestia's incentivized testnet program! The Blockspace Race is the largest ever testnet to support data availability sampling, with 700+ sampling light nodes.
We want to give a brief update on our upcoming Incentivized Testnet. We have now sent out emails to all participants selected for the Incentivized Testnet. The emails provide next steps for selected participants to confirm their eligibility for the program. It is possible some emails ended up in spam, so please make sure to check there too.
We received an incredible amount of interest. Over 20,000 community members sent in an application. Unfortunately, we were not able to accommodate everyone who applied, but we really appreciate everyone who submitted an application and for the interest in Celestia. We assure you that there will be other ways to get involved in the project.
We look forward to kicking off testnet and working with our innovative community to build modular ๐งฑ!
