DePIN Testnet FAQs
GeneralTestnet FAQs
What is the Naoris Protocol Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet?
The Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet is an experimental version of the Naoris Protocol network where users can test various security functions as part of a Browser Security Node Extension. This allows the Naoris Protocol team to test the network live with global users, and for users to participate in a secure ecosystem and earn Testnet points, that will later be converted into $NAORIS tokens during the community airdrop at the Token Generation Event (TGE).
How do I participate in the DePIN Testnet?
To participate, visit the official Naoris Protocol Testnet Website, navigate to the ‘How It Works’Testnet section, and select the appropriate download process for the Wallet and Browser Security Node software, install it on your computer, and start running the node. You'll earn Testnet points for your participation straight away. You can get further information about the DePIN Testnet in the Documents and Guides
