Available Koii Clusters

Koii maintains several different clusters with different purposes.

Before you begin make sure you have first installed the Koii command line tools

Explorer:

Devnet​

  • Devnet serves as a playground for anyone who wants to take Koii for a test drive, as a user, token holder, app developer, or validator.

  • Application developers should target Devnet.

  • Potential validators should first target Devnet.

  • Key differences between Devnet and Mainnet:

    • Devnet tokens are not real
    • Devnet includes a token faucet for airdrops for application testing
    • Devnet may be subject to ledger resets
    • Devnet typically runs the same software release branch version as Mainnet, but may run a newer minor release version than Mainnet.
  • Gossip entrypoint for Devnet: entrypoint.devnet.koii.network:8001

  • RPC URL for Devnet: https://devnet.koii.network

The --known-validators are operated by Koii Labs

Testnet​

  • Testnet is where the Koii core contributors stress test recent release features on a live cluster, particularly focused on network performance, stability and validator behavior.

  • Testnet tokens at time of snapshot will be converted to mainnet tokens at a 1:1 ratio.

  • Testnet tokens after snapshot are not real

  • Testnet may be subject to ledger resets.

  • Testnet includes a token faucet for airdrops for application testing

  • Testnet typically runs a newer software release branch than Devnet

  • Gossip entrypoint for Testnet: entrypoint.testnet.koii.network:8001

  • RPC URL for Testnet: https://testnet.koii.network
