Heize, to decide testnet launch date early next week... development network operation smooth

Flop Labs CEO Arthur Hayes said the project’s development network is running smoothly and that the team will set a testnet launch date early next week, according to Foresight News. Hayes said the team is still adjusting and optimizing parts of the protocol and urged users to use an agent to review changes in the yellow paper’s Git repository. The development network is used to build and check features, while the testnet is the stage before a full service launch; the announcement concerns setting a launch date, not the testnet going live. The timing matters because it marks the next public milestone for Hayes’s project after last month’s update, with the exact testnet date now the key item to watch.
