For enhanced asset security on the Bool Network, we are implementing adjustments to node deployment after thorough consideration.

With the imminent launch of the Alpha Testnet, it’s crucial to highlight key features for optimal performance.

  • To ensure node stability, exchanging tBOL with USDT at a 10:1 ratio is mandatory.
  • The USDT used for this exchange is refundable upon Testnet completion, with tBOL returned to the team.
  • Please note that the official wallet address for tBOL conversion within the Alpha Testnet is 0x2000b83c88dc238b66a9e72e1b62c446d39ceef7
  • In the event of a node remaining offline over 10 minutes, a penalty of 10 tBOL will be incurred per count.
  • If you retain the option to exit your node, refund is available when testnet is complete.

The aim of this guide is to help you configure the network and get tBOL test tokens to participate in the node deployment process on Alpha Testnet. The aforementioned process currently supports mobile and website setup, here we are going to assume website setup for the rest of the guide. To start Alpha Testnet on Bool Network, you will firstly need to configure Alpha Testnet Network on your Metamask wallet and exchange for some tBOL tokens. Let’s get started!
