Join the Witnet Testnet Incentive Program now and earn your share of $10,000 USD in DAI!Witnet - the Decentralized Oracle Network (
https://witnet.io) is moving to Mainnet at the end of this quarter. With the transition imminent, we're glad to announce the launch of the Witnet Testnet Incentive Program.
For Phase 1, we’re looking for 15–20 highly technical node operators in the community to stress-test the network, provide valuable feedback, and break things. We’ve allocated $10,000 worth of DAI for this 1st Phase (including $500 to each of the 5 most active node operators) to make sure that everyone involved is generously rewarded:
- The top 5 most active node operators (between now and Mainnet) will each receive a bounty of $500 USD worth of DAI.
- The remaining $7500 will be USD worth of DAI will be distributed to engaged operators on a discretionary basis. The more engaged someone is, the more of this pie you’ll receive.
In addition to the financial incentive, these node operators will also:
- Have their own Vanity Address inserted into Witnet’s genesis block, there as a public and permanent plaque.
- Learn the ins-and-outs of the Witnet protocol whilst getting rewarded, putting you ahead of the competition when we reach Witnet Mainnet.
- Get acknowledged through our newsletters and social media channels.
To participate, node operators will be required to :
- Run a Witnet node with a publicly routable and static IP address from now until Witnet Mainnet launch, and be mostly online.
- Test, and generally play around with the node. The more feedback you provide, the more things you break or uncover on the network, the more you’ll be rewarded.
- Be an active and engaged participant in the Witnet Telegram and Discord communities.
- Complete a short questionnaire.
The details for Phase 2 are still being hashed out. If you wish to have your say on how it’s run or have any questions, head to the Community Discord (
https://discord.gg/QKEa5gU) and join the conversation.
