The Ethereum Foundation developers have launched the Spadina testnet. The network with a three-day lifecycle will be the "dress rehearsal" for the launch of Ethereum 2.0.
Spadina will allow the network rollout and deposit contract processes to be re-run. The network will operate in parallel with the existing Medalla testnet. After 3 days, the developers will stop supporting it.
At the time of writing, the validator participation rate is estimated at 40.3%. For staking, 2,856 validators contributed 91,392 test ETH.
As a reminder, the developers launched the final Medalla testnet on August 4. Ten days later, there was an outage that Prysmatic Labs developer Raoul Jordan called a good lesson "to prevent this from happening on the mainnet."
In September, developer Evan Van Ness said that the bill before the launch of Ethereum 2.0 "runs for weeks."
