Akash Networks

This repository contains network information for the various Akash networks.

In general, there will be three networks available at any given time:

Network	Status	Network version (binary version)	Description
mainnet	✔️	v0.36.0 (0.36.0)	Akash Network mainnet network.
sandbox	✔️	v0.36.0 (0.36.0)	Akash Network sandbox playground network.
testnet-02	❌	N/A	Akash Network testnet-02 test network.
stagenet	❌	N/A	Akash Network stagenet test network. (Copy of sandbox)
edgenet	❌	N/A	Akash Network bleeding edge test network.

Each network has a corresponding directory (linked to above) containing network information. Each directory includes, at a minimum:

File	Description
version.txt	The Akash version used to participate in the network.
chain-id.txt	The "chain-id" of the network.
genesis.json	The genesis file for the network
seed-nodes.txt	A list of seed node addresses for the network.

The following files may also be present:

File	Description
peer-nodes.txt	A list of peer node addresses for the network.
rpc-nodes.txt	A list of RPC node addresses for the network.
api-nodes.txt	A list of API (LCD) node addresses for the network.
faucet-url.txt	The url of a faucet server for the network.
explorer-url.txt	The url of a explorer UI for the network.

Usage

The information in this repo may be used to automate tasks when deploying or configuring Akash software.

The format is standardized across the networks so that you can use the same method to fetch the information for all of them - just change the base URL
