The Blockspace Race is the largest test network ever created for data availability sampling, with more than 700 sampling light nodes. The Blockspace Race will consist of five phases over a total of nine weeks. During this time, this document will be updated with relevant information provided by validators and participants in the testnet, for review and to help you through the process.

Here are some of the resources that the validators have shared with us:
