In the midst of touring ISLE, period 5 of the Testnet Incentives Program has come to an end,
| Criteria | Pass | Fail | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1: In the active set | 42 | 0 | |
| 2: Validators all consumer chains | 42 | 0 | |
| 3: Unjailed for entire period | 35 | 6 | |
| 4: Participated in all events | 30 | 12 | |
| 5: Running mainnet-grade infra | 41 | 1 | |
| Eligible for payment | 29 | 13 |
This is our highest number of eligible validators yet – practice makes perfect and many of these validators have been with us since before TIP was even happening!
We’ve paid out the entirety of our remaining 1596 ATOM from AADAO this period. Due to a low ATOM price, it unfortunately meant that validators only received about 85% of the expected amount.
TIP has been renewed by AADAO with different eligibility criteria for ongoing use, so I’ll be back on the forum to report on our findings from this pilot period, our new criteria, and what the Hub’s ICS testnet will look like going forward.
Right now, we are still running the Interchain Security Lightning Experiment 
on the testnet and it’s not too late to join and earn incentives for testing and training on ICS 2.0!
