ConsenSys has been whitelisting more users to its testnet.
Here's a step-by-step thread on how to bridge from Goerli to zkEVM, using Hop.
Will zkEVM have a token? 🧵👇

✅ About zkEVM
• ConsenSys is a private blockchain software technology company, which owns MetaMask, Infura, zkEVM, and several other products
• One of the things they are working on: their own zkEVM rollup, Ethereum scalability using ZK Proofs.

Recently, Infura endpoints to access ConsenSys zkEVM became available to a closed group of early registrants
To become one of the testers, you should sign up for the waitlist.
(If you signed & didn't get an email, don't forget they are sending beta invitations in batches)

For those who are whitelisted: how to test the product?
STEP 1: Go to faucetlink.to/goerli & request Goerli ETH
STEP 2: Login into your Infura account app.infura.io/login
STEP 3: Create a new key and select network Web3 API.

STEP 4: Select the ConsenSys zkEVM Testnet endpoint (screenshot below)

STEP 5: Go to goerli.zkevm.consensys.net
STEP 6: Add zkEVM Testnet RPC to your MetaMask
STEP 7: Bridge from Goerli to zkEVM using Hop Protocol: goerli.hop.exchange
STEP 8: Test the zkEVM - play around app.dexchange.live
(bridge, swap, provide LP)

Is there any $INFURA information?
• On the 1st screenshot, the Team said they are "discussing ways to reward those who help test". This does not necessarily means $INFURA, but it means rewards
• On the 2nd screenshot, the Team said that no token will be launched

Why should we care?
• ConsenSys is a company that owns MetaMask
• Joseph Lubin already confirmed that MetaMask will have a token (check the thread below)
• Infura is actively thinking about rewarding its token holders for the contribution

💡 Didn't receive their email yet?
The registration for zkEVM private testnet is closed at the moment.
If you missed the registration period, don't worry! The next phase will be a permissionless testnet. We will have more communications on this to come, stay tuned.
