Introducing the live Taiko ZK-EVM Alpha-3 testnet, named "Grímsvötn"! This milestone follows the successful Taiko Alpha-1 & Alpha-2 Testnets, marking a significant advancement in scaling Ethereum as the Mainnet launch nears. The Alpha-3 Testnet encourages participants to test the new protocol economics design, observing rational behavior in a mainnet-like environment with fees and rewards in mind.
Taiko is a fully decentralized ZK-Rollup that scales Ethereum in a way that closely mirrors the Ethereum network, supporting all ZK-EVM opcodes in a secure, permissionless, and decentralized layer-2 architecture. The development of Taiko has been praised by Vitalik Buterin as a key advancement in the Ethereum ecosystem.

About Taiko Alpha-3 Testnet
Introducing "Grímsvötn" - the latest advancement in Ethereum scaling! The Alpha-3 testnet follows the successful Taiko Alpha-1 & Taiko Alpha-2 testnets, playing a crucial role in testing network components as the Mainnet launch nears. This Ethereum-equivalent ZK-Rollup allows for scalable Ethereum transactions while maintaining technical and non-technical similarities to Ethereum. Taiko, as a Type-1 ZK-EVM, emphasizes perfect EVM/Ethereum equivalence over ZK-proof generation speed.
Step-by-step guide
Configure your Metamask wallet with both the Ethereum Sepolia Testnet and Taiko Alpha-3 Testnet networks. Go to the Sepolia Goerli Faucet and request $ETH test coins. Switch your wallet to Taiko Alpha-3 Testnet and Add custom tokens (HORSE, BLL, and TTKO) using the provided configuration. Navigate to the Taiko bridge interface, switch your wallet to Sepolia Goerli, select “HORSE” from the dropdown and click “Faucet“. Repeat the same step for “BLL” tokens. * Note that $TKO will not be distributed at the launch of Alpha-3, but will be shortly after. Now, Bridge ETH, HORSE, and/or BLL from Sepolia to Taiko. You can also try manually claiming the transfer yourself by clicking the “Claim” button under the “Transactions” tab. * Note that the Txs will intentionally fail 50% of the time as part of the testing process. Run a Taiko node, enable a Prover/Proposer, deploy a contract and verify its functionality, and build a ÐApp on top of Taiko. Report any bugs you encounter during testing and provide feedback.
