ZK Chain Launched with Tremendous Community Support The Elastic Chain Improves Web3 Gaming ZKcandy Voyage Public Testnet: What You Need to Know Voyager Pass NFT Giveaway How to Get A Voyager Pass NFT How to get Candy Points Games for Campaign Participation Quests Referral Program Campaign Timeline Joining the Voyage Stay ConnectedSingapore, Singapore, September 9th, 2024, Chainwire
ZKCandy is excited to announce the launch of the ZKcandy Voyage public testnet, a major milestone in ZKcandy’s mission to create a fast, low gas fee, and vibrant gaming ecosystem utilizing cutting-edge zero-knowledge proof technology, powered by ZKsync.
The public testnet launch comes off the back of a very successful closed testnet campaign called the ZKcandy OG Voyage that ran for 2 weeks prior.
ZKcandy is among the first ZK Chains to be up and running with a publicly available testnet. ZK Chains are an interoperable network of Layer 2 blockchains built on ZK Stack that make up the Elastic Chain ecosystem pioneered by ZKsync.
The community’s support and engagement were instrumental in making the testnet a tremendous success. The ZKcandy team expected only 500 users to sign up for the closed testnet campaign but more than 16,830 users signed up within 24 hours of ZKcandy announcing its closed testnet.
In order not to disappoint the community, the ZKcandy team admitted as many users as possible for the closed testnet. Users of the closed testnet played the one game featured with lots of enthusiasm and helped ZKcandy test out its testnet. Additionally, more than 45,000 registered users played the first game featured on ZKcandy, BTFD Arcade. Full stats of the closed testnet are shared below.
ZKcandy will become one of many ZK Chains built to meet the unique needs of ZKcandy gamers. This will make it easy for developers on ZKcandy to build games that are able to take full advantage of all that the ZKsync technology enables. By being part of the Elastic Chain ecosystem of fully interoperable ZK Chains, the entirety of the ZKsync user base — from ZKsync Era and any other ZK Chain — will be able to seamlessly enter the ZKcandy ecosystem and take part in the growing gaming community.
The ZKcandy team is now ready to take the next big step with so much encouragement from the community.
The ZKcandy Voyage Public Testnet is designed to stress-test our system with the help of our community over a four-week period, running from Septemeber 9, 2024, to October 9, 2024, to ensure a smooth and robust mainnet launch.
The community’s participation will play a crucial role in refining the ZKcandy platform. Additionally, we seek gamers to play some of our featured games to validate all features and functionalities, allowing the ZKcandy team to fine-tune its gaming ecosystem, and by engaging a broad user base it can identify and rectify potential vulnerabilities.
Participants will be rewarded with exclusive Candy Points and Voyager Pass NFTs for their contributions. These NFTs will not only offer a multiplier effect on calming tokens upon the Token Generation Event (TGE) but also grant 10,000 Candy Points.
To help incentivise the community the ZKcandy team is giving away 8,888 exclusive Voyager Pass NFTs to early participants. These NFTs come with unique benefits, including:
