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.
