Testing is the best way to contribute to #Ethereum. We are starting a new program to get the community involved in testing the merge.
If you want to do your part in getting Ethereum to Proof of Stake as soon as possible and save the environment, #dm me
Can someone turn this into a readable document for getting users connected to the devnet? I'm formulating a document and it would be great to have some starting resources for people to connect to the devnet hackmd.io/dFzKxB3ISWO8ju… #TestingTheMerge
A bit overwhelmed by everything right now :D 129 people in my DMs already! Great to see so many people invested in this
So many great people already! I would love to have a conversation with each and every one of you, feel pretty bad that I can't onboard every one individually. Will try my best to get to know y'all over the next couple of weeks/months!

Program start out great already, we have over 150 participants. And first docs have been written already! Thanks to @parithosh_j for providing the docker and @lakshmansankar for the MacOS section in the "How to join the devnet" document: hackmd.io/dFzKxB3ISWO8ju… #TestingTheMerge
Missing part of this document: Instructions for windows and other EL's and CL's. Also looking for someone to write an explanation on how to connect metamask to your local node, get some money from the faucet and send transactions on the devnet.
Adding a new network to met@mask:
Go to the bottom, click on `add Network`
Name: Devnet-1
RPC-URL: http://localhost:8545
Chain-ID: 1337402
Now you can get some funds from the faucet: faucet.merge-devnet-1.wenmerge.dev
(Looking for someone to turn this into a nice looking blog post)
So twitter's spam protection kicked in and I can not answer all the people who contacted me about #TestingTheMerge, so I need to publish the message I'm sending everyone here:
Hey,
Great that you're interested in joining the testing efforts.
I'm a bit overwhelmed with the amount of responses I got, so I'm currently thinking about how to onboard so many new people to get them started as smoothly as possible.
I'll try to create three different classes of tasks; for users/non-technical testers, for technical testing and for testers that are very familiar with the inner workings of ethereum.
