⛩ Torii Incentivized Testnet: Recap & Winners
As highlighted last week, the Torii incentivized testnet program was a resounding success! We saw a phenomenal turnout from the community, the builders showed up in full force, and the network itself held strong at 100% uptime throughout.
In all, there were thousands of challenge submissions and some incredible contributions built atop the protocol — dapps, block explorers, staking and governance UIs, rewards dashboards, monitoring tools, load generator scripts, and tons more.
Core teams have been busy poring over and evaluating every last submission, and are thrilled to share details on the outcomes for this phase…

What About the Winners…?

For those eligible winners, we will be reaching out directly via email on June 8 with details and instructions on how to proceed with completing identity verification and the subsequent next steps for claiming rewards.

A few important points worth reiterating:
