FUEL Testnet Guide - Step by step

Fuel v1 began as a layer-2 (L2) scalability technology for a monolithic Ethereum. It was the first optimistic rollup on mainnet Ethereum, deployed at the end of 2020. Today, Fuel is the fastest modular execution layer. Fuel delivers the highest security and flexible throughput, with a focus on a superior developer experience.

Here’s how we do it:

• Parallel transaction execution;
• Fuel Virtual Machine (FuelVM);
• Developer tooling with Sway Language and Forc.

Expanding on the features of beta-1, the beta-2 testnet is launching with a bridge to Ethereum’s Goerli test network. Now, developers will be able to build and test cross-chain dapps, laying the foundations for projects building on Fuel to tap into Ethereum’s massive liquidity and existing user base.

Please note that beta-2 is not an incentivized testnet. There will be no direct rewards for participation in this network.

Even if the project team has officially announced that participation in the testnet is not rewarded, this does not mean that in the future early testers will not be given any privileges, we recommend that you take some time and perform the simple steps in our guide.
