Ethereum's Testnets Ropsten, Rinkeby and Kiln Deprecated
Ethereum Foundation announced that the Kiln, Rinkeby and Ropsten testnets are now being deprecated. Kiln testnet will be shut down shortly after the Ethereum mainnet's transition to proof-of-stake. Ropsten testnet has transitioned to proof-of-stake and will be shut down in Q4 2022. Rinkeby testnet will not transition to proof-of-stake and will be shut down in Q2/Q3 2023. Ethereum Foundation encourages users and developers to migrate ASAP to Goerli or Sepolia testnets to test Ethereum in a post-merge context.
