Test Pilot V2 Training Program
Introduction
Dear Secured Finance Community,
Welcome back! Since the launch of our Secured Finance Protocol webapp in March 2023, we’ve achieved remarkable milestones. We transitioned to the Sepolia testnet, and provided a handy guide on obtaining ETH for Sepolia. Our Head of Markets, Kenji Mitsusada, shed light on how Secured Finance is revolutionizing DeFi, and we successfully launched our new Orderbook with a Maturity Date of 27th Jun 2025 at the end of last quarter.
Now, we’re thrilled to invite you to the Test Pilot V2 Training Program from July 14th, complete with step-by-step guides. In V1, users learned the essentials, from interacting with smart contracts on the blockchain through our webapp to practicing collateral management and lending/borrowing using a simple user interface. V2 takes it a step further, guiding users on providing liquidity, placing limit orders, and delving into the functions that make trading on Secured Finance seamless.
Our mission at Secured Finance is to democratize the interbank-grade market, offering fixed-income markets to the DeFi space. We’re dedicated to empowering users, from novices to experts, with the knowledge and skills to trade effectively against institutional investors. Dive into the Secured Finance Protocol with us and unlock your trading potential in an accessible and engaging manner.
On-Chain Achievement Token (OAT) Campaign
We’re thrilled to build on the success of our V1 OAT campaign, where an impressive 7,810 NFTs were minted. Alongside this, we celebrated reaching 10,000 active testnet users.

Excitingly, we’re launching a new OAT campaign from 14th July to end of September for V2, so follow the guides below, complete the Test Pilot V2 Training Program, and get your OAT!
