Tea Protocol Announces Incentivized Testnet Launch, Setting a New Paradigm in Open-Source Software

January 29, 2024 – San Juan, Puerto Rico

The Tea Protocol has announced the launch of its highly anticipated incentivized testnet on February 21, 2024.

The Tea Protocol seamlessly bridges Web 2.0 open-source codebases to Web 3.0 to enhance their sustainability and provide fair rewards to open-source developers.

Additionally, Tea provides developers access to its incentivized community of vulnerability reporters and is cross-compatible with major package managers including Homebrew, Npm, APT, Crate, PyPI, RubyGems and Pkgx.

Beginning February 21, any open-source developer can interact with the Tea Protocol and begin earning rewards for their contributions.

All community members – including non-developers – will also be encouraged to access the Tea Protocol via a series of incentivized activities on the blockchain.

This critical step towards the launch of the Tea Protocol will allow all participants to immerse themselves into the fully composable open-source ecosystem created by the Tea Protocol.

The incentivized testnet – a stepping stone to mainnet success

The upcoming incentivized testnet marks a significant step in the Tea Protocol’s journey toward launching a robust mainnet on the Base blockchain.

This testnet phase is crucial for ensuring a thriving, efficient and secure network for all participants.

Five key features of the incentivized testnet to explore on tea.xyz

• Waitlist availability – The waitlist for the incentivized testnet, launching on February 21, offers a limited opportunity for interested users.
• Insight into TEA tokenomics – The economic model driving the protocol is detailed, offering clarity and depth of understanding.
• Comprehensive documentation access – Extensive resources are available, providing a thorough understanding of the protocol.
• Insight into ‘TeaRank’ for projects – Projects can ascertain their position within the open-source ecosystem and understand their eligibility for rewards.
• Tea points accumulation – The ITN presents opportunities for both developers and non-developers to engage in challenges and quests, facilitating the accumulation of Tea points.

Joining the incentivized testnet and exploring tea.xyz offers an opportunity to be part of a pioneering movement in open-source software.

It’s a chance to engage with a forward-thinking community, understand Tea’s tokenomics and utilize the TeaRank system for project visibility and rewards.
