Why this runs on Preprod, and what that means for you
Everything here is on Cardano's Preprod test network. Test ADA has no market value. Nothing on this site is deployed to mainnet. · 3 min read
Test network, test value
Preprod is Cardano's pre-production test network. The tADA used here is free from a faucet and cannot be sold. Deposits, yields and balances on this site are real transactions with unreal money.
Why we are still here
The contracts, the fee arithmetic, the governance flow and the reference scripts are the same code that a mainnet deployment would use. Running them publicly on Preprod, with real issuers filing real evidence, is how the pipeline earns the right to hold real capital.
The gate to mainnet
The app refuses to resolve mainnet configuration at all — this is enforced in code, not policy. Moving requires an audited release, published reference scripts and a deliberate change, documented on the security page.
