We proudly announce that **our PanGu Testnet is now live!**

It's a ZK-Validium Layer 2 built using the [Polygon CDK](https://docs.polygon.technology/cdk/) stack.

**PanGu** is a public-good Testnet, providing a playground for developers and teams to test their ideas entirely FREE before launching on the Mainnet.

### How to connect **PanGu Testnet**?

Here are the instructions to get started:

1.  Acquire Sepolia ETH.
    
2.  Visit [https://pangu.bridge.snapcha.in](https://pangu.bridge.snapcha.in).
    
3.  Click '**Add to MetaMask**' to add the network.
    
4.  Click '**Connect a wallet**'.
    
5.  Bridge some Sepolia ETH to the PanGu testnet.
