Mantis is in the final stages of internal testing for a fully implemented 'Sagano' testnet, which will be publicly available externally in the coming weeks. This testnet highlights Mantis' and IOG's commitment to push innovation within the ETC ecosystem.
The Sagano testnet is a safe environment provided by the Mantis team to allow developers to
- Deploy and test their smart contracts
- Test IOHK Ethereum Classic Improvment Proposals (ECIPs) when they are deployed
It also allows wallet users to interact with test ETC tokens obtained from a faucet.

The two initial features the Sagano testnet will feature are [Checkpointing](#) and [Proto-Treasury](#).
All new ETC features from the Input Output Group will be deployed first on the Sagano network.

[Contact us](mailto:mantis@iohk.io) for further information on how to participate and join the testnet.
To join Sagano with Mantis, use the `sagano` network definition:

## Sagano Faucet & Explorer
```
./bin/mantis-launcher sagano
```
If you are using the wallet, you can also select the Sagano network from the splash screen on startup. After startup, you can change the network from the Settings menu.

The Sagano Faucet and Explorer are key tools needed to use the Sagano testnet correctly.

## Sagano Faucet

[Sagano Faucet](https://mantis-testnet-faucet-web.mantis.ws/)
The Sagano Faucet supplies test ETC to make it easy for developers and users to run transactions in test mode.
To obtain a coin, you provide your testnet address.
You can claim a maximum of one coin every 24 hours.
The test ETC has no value; no one can spend coins dispensed by the faucet on any network other than Sagano.

## Sagano Roadmap
## Sagano Explorer

[Sagano Explorer](https://mantis-testnet-explorer.mantis.ws/)
This lightweight, browser-based explorer allows users to monitor activity on the testnet. The explorer shows detailed transaction activity as well as labeling which blocks are checkpointing blocks.
