Testnet

Aztec Testnet network

Aztec's public testnet on Sepolia, where sequencers and staking providers run each release before mainnet. Sequencer set, epochs, committee, governance and slashing.

Network

Updated
Next epoch in
A period of 32 slots (about 38 minutes). Each epoch gets a newly picked committee.
19m 29s Epoch #609 Slot 16 / 32
Health
The share of slots that got a checkpoint over the last 4 completed epochs. Healthy at 85% or more, Degraded from 70% to under 85%, Unhealthy below 70%.
Healthy
100.0% · 128 of 128 slots had a checkpoint in epochs #605–#608
Active sequencers
Aztec's word for a validator. Sequencers order transactions, propose checkpoints and attest to each other's work.
507
Total stake
Tokens locked up to back a validator. Total stake includes tokens delegated by others.
101.4M STK
Committee size
The sequencers picked at random to attest to (vote on) checkpoints for one epoch. A new committee is drawn each epoch from all active sequencers.
48
Picks 9.5% of active sequencers each epoch
Checkpoint height
The number of the latest checkpoint Aztec has posted to Ethereum.
19,252
Proven checkpoint
The latest checkpoint whose validity proof is verified on Ethereum. Proofs arrive in batches, so this number can stand still for a while and then jump.

Attestation rate
Of the attestations this sequencer owed while on a committee, the share an Aztec node saw it send, over the peer-to-peer network or in the checkpoint on Ethereum. Only slots with a valid checkpoint proposal count: when nobody proposed, nobody owed a vote. It is one node's view, so a vote that never reached that node counts as missed. Ethereum alone can't tell: a checkpoint carries only the 33 signatures of its quorum, out of 48.

BitNordic

Why is this here?

BitNordic doesn't run a sequencer on Aztec Testnet.

Networks BitNordic runs

Governance
How the protocol gets upgraded. Sequencers signal for a payload (a proposed change) in rounds; a payload with enough signals becomes a proposal that is voted on.

Updated
Signalling round
A fixed stretch of slots in which sequencers signal support for a payload (a proposed change). Rounds are numbered from the start of the rollup.

Slashing
Taking part of a sequencer's stake as a penalty, for example for being offline. On Aztec, slashing is proposed and voted on by sequencers.
