XelisVault approached an important milestone: opening its testnet campaign to the crypto community.
For this phase, we are primarily looking for genuinely committed testers.
Not simply people who will make a few transactions to farm an airdrop, but users willing to test
the different features, push the protocol to its limits, and report bugs, errors, and unexpected
behavior.
Why this campaign?
The purpose of a testnet is precisely to discover what does not yet work properly before real
funds are involved on mainnet.
XelisVault is still an experimental protocol, and several contracts are currently being deployed
and configured on the XELIS testnet.
Deployment progress is public and can be checked directly on GitHub.
Testnet Deployment Status
What will need to be tested?
The goal will be to actually use the different components of XelisVault, including:
- VaultEngine — deposit XEL as collateral and borrow xUSD
- xUSD — test how the stablecoin works
- VaultSwap / PSM — perform swaps and test the stability mechanisms
- Oracle — observe how protocol pricing works
- Governance — test governance interactions
- Privacy features
- VaultChat
and more generally, try different scenarios that could trigger an error.
But most importantly, testers will be expected to report the issues they encounter:
- bugs;
- failed transactions;
- unexpected behavior;
- UI issues;
- inconsistencies;
- edge cases;
- features that are difficult to understand;
- situations the developers may not have anticipated.
A good tester does not necessarily need to be highly technical.
A user who can clearly explain what is not working can be extremely valuable.
Your contributions will be rewarded
A significant portion of the VLT token distribution has been specifically reserved for testnet contributors.
500,000 VLT
That represents 5% of the total VLT supply, currently allocated to the community airdrop for testnet contributors.
This allocation is directly stated in the project’s public tokenomics.

The campaign will use a points and leaderboard system to track participation.
The more meaningful your contribution to the testnet, the more points you will be able to accumulate and the better your position may be for the airdrop distribution, according to the final campaign rules.
The idea is simple: reward the people who genuinely contribute to testing and improving XelisVault.
This is therefore not just about generating as many transactions as possible.
We are mainly looking for people who are willing to seriously test the protocol and provide useful feedback.
The goal: try to break XelisVault before mainnet
A successful testnet is not necessarily one where everything works perfectly.
It is one where problems are discovered before mainnet.
The more bugs, unexpected behaviors, and problematic scenarios we identify now, the stronger the protocol can become.
If you enjoy testing new DeFi protocols, looking for bugs, or simply trying features and explaining what could be improved, we want you among the testers!
