䷐ Taiko Alpha-2 Testnet is Live | Incentivized Testnet for node runner $TKO 🪂”

“The current $ARB airdrop is bringing joy to many individuals and why not? It’s a $1000+ airdrop 💸. It’s essential not to miss out on another airdrop that could occur in the next 2–3 months.”

• What is Taiko ?

Taiko is a decentralized Ethereum-equivalent ZK-Rollup.

It enables easy deployment of dApps on its network while maintaining security levels similar to Ethereum and offering lower transaction fees than on the L1 chain.

Taiko is a community-driven that operates in a decentralized and permissionless manner. It relies solely on Ethereum public data and allows anyone to run a node, and any proposer or prover can participate.

As a Type 1 ZK-EVM, Taiko is built on the Privacy & Scaling Explorations team’s work at the Ethereum Foundation, specifically on ZK-EVM circuits.

Here is first a bit of background on how Taiko works:

Taiko is co-founded by Daniel Wang, who is the founder and former CEO of Loopring.

And there is no information about funding but team said they are “well funded”

• Testnet

In February Taiko give a POAP as a reward to Alpha-1 testnet users

and now Taiko Alpha-2 is live, user again able to do certain task +++ anyone can run Taiko node

• Reward

On the alpha-2 testnet, the Taiko protocol will allocate and distribute proof rewards in $TTKO tokens to the prover. At the end of the testnet reward period, these $TTKO tokens can be redeemed for USDC.

The reward budget for provers is set at up to 50,000 USDC,

⎘ “We already did this type of task in Aleo and ironfish incentivised testnet now time for Taiko…..”

• What to do now ?

Configure your wallet:

⏤ Go to : https://chainid.network

⏤ Add “Sepolia” and Taiko (Askja testnet) to wallet

⎘ “Connect your wallet search above network click “Add chain”.”

• Receive testnet tokens from the faucet

⏤ Request sepETH faucet ‘Alchemy’ : https://sepoliafaucet.com

⎘”other faucets provider in sepolia are pk910, RockX,Quecknode etc. just search sepolia faucet on google for more”

⏤ Connect your wallet to https://bridge.a2.taiko.xyz/

⏤ now select $HORSE from the dropdown, and click “Faucet”.

⏤ and do same for $BULL token

⏤ Bridge $ETH sepolia to Taiko A2

⏤ And also bridge $BULL and $HORSE

⏤ Connect your wallet to https://swap.a2.taiko.xyz/#/swap

⏤ swap $bull to $horse and vice verse….

⏤ Add liquidity to pool

⏤Providing feedback or share any bugs you come across on this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdD9J8_dl2spOg7kHPAyzRSrfityz80WKtZ0APCNjq-dO8PTg/viewform

⎘ “Above task is not incentivised, if you want to join a incentivised testnet you have to run a node”

• Run a Taiko node in Phase-2

Before you dive into this check minimum system requirements:

⎘ “I’m using digitalOcean vps for free (need credit card or PayPal) or you can use vultr (it’s also give you free credit but only credit card is accepted)”

⏤ Create another Droplet (DigitalOcean)

⏤ Choose Region and Ubuntu as image

⏤ Create root password

⏤ Inter Hostname then “create droplet

⏤ open console “Access Console”

⏤ Click “Launch Droplet console” to access it

⎘ “After successfully assess console, past code one by one, for all different VPS users… ”

⏤ update if required sudo apt update

⏤ install and setup Docker:

curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh

sudo sh get-docker.sh

⏤ install docker Compose :

sudo curl -L “https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)” -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

⏤ Clone Taiko file git clone https://github.com/taikoxyz/simple-taiko-node.git

⏤ Create new Screen screen -S taiko

⏤ change directory cd simple-taiko-node

⏤ Configure your node:

cp .env.sample .env

vim .env

⎘ “if your screen like that ?”

⎘ “Now we need Sepolia L1 endpoint and Websockets, for that…”

⏤ Create Account on Alchemy : http://alchemy.com/?r=3292de2320f

⏤ Go to Dashboard Click on “Apps” dropdown and then “Create app”

⏤ Select Ethereum and sepolia Testnet and “create app”

⏤ Open app and click on “View Kays”

⏤ Copy your HTTPS and WEBSOCKETS and save it in notepad

⏤ Again open console

⎘ “if you are not in Configure process open your screen screen -r taiko

⏤ inter your HTTPS and Websocket that I did in image (For do this hit “i” in kayboard to insert)

past your HTTPS after L1_ENDPOINT_HTTP=and WEBSOCKET after L1_ENDPOINT_WS=

⏤ Enable Prover Replace false to true in ENABLE_PROVER=

⏤ And finally inter PROVER_PRIVATE_KEY (your meta#mast private kay) for that create now wallet 👇

  • Create new burner wallet

⏤ Open wallet click “create account”

⏤ name it and click on “create”

⏤ Click on three dot then “account details”

⏤ Export private key and copy it

⏤ Open Console again and past your private key after : L1_PROVER_PRIVATE_KEY=

🗒 Note : your private keys will be different for every account but seed phrase will be same in meta#mask wallet

⏤ hit “esc” escape to exit insert mode

⏤ Inter :wq! To save and quite this

⏤ start node docker compose up -d

⎘ “After this process, it will install and start synchronizing.”

You can view your node logs by docker compose logs -f

and view the prover image’s logs

docker compose logs -f taiko_client_prover_relayer
