Goerli

From CryptoWiki
  • Testnet of Ethereum. Launched in 2019, Goerli is one of several Ethereum testnets that lets developers safely test their code before deploying them on the Ethereum mainnet.
  • Became tradable after LayerZero enabled trading between mainnet and Goerli (2-2023). Ethereum developers, such as Tim Beiko, are proposing a new testnet called Holli, which aims to make it easier for developers to acquire testnet ETH and reduce the need for a secondary market. The plan is to slowly phase out Goerli while moving users to the Sepolia testnet—which is already running but as a permissioned chain and not yet open for anyone to run a validator node.
