Session, the encrypted messaging app, has introduced a testnet incentive program as it prepares to launch its new utility token, the ‘Session Token’.

—

This program invites loyal community members to test the new Session Network, now transitioning from the Oxen blockchain to the Arbitrum blockchain, and help identify and fix any issues before the Session Token’s public release. The next-generation Session Network is designed to enhance the functionality and security of Session’s decentralized messaging platform.

Starting July 16, eligible community members can stake testnet Session Nodes using test tokens in the Staking Portal. Only community members are eligible to participate in this phase, and rewards will be based on on-chain activity rather than the size of the stakes.

The most active and meaningful contributors will receive more points. Tokens will be distributed to participants at the Token Generation Event.
