Good morning everyone and good night to you who is reading the article at night. We have got some updates about great project which we follow for long. Taiko has announced its third testnet in alpha. We can try out the network by interacting bridge and installing node.

Let me help you on interacting with bridge.

First, you need to get some ETH on Sepolia network.

You can use one of these faucets to get some ETH.
