Celo announced via X on Sunday that the Dango Layer 2 testnet is now live on its network. cLabs, the development team behind the Celo blockchain, successfully launched the fork of Alfajores testnet and is inviting developers to start testing the updated code.
Dango will operate alongside Alfajores as core infrastructure providers familiarize themselves with the L2 codebase. All historical data (smart contracts, accounts, & balances) from Alfajores are preserved and migrated to Dango, making the transition as simple as updating the RPC URL.
