Well the problem is that we have historic smart contract infrastructure that was deployed to Rinkeby by our QA team over several years.
Moving Sepolia and Goerli is not an option to us.
What we will probably need to do is keep Rinkeby running at least for us internally. If someone else is interesting in continuing Rinkeby to run please let me know.
What are the blockers to redeploying this on another testnet? Would be curious to better understand and see if other projects are in the same situation.
One note re: Rinkeby is that it won’t be run through The Merge (or future forks), so as of The Merge, it won’t be a good staging environment for mainnet.
Our QA team is having lots of problems getting testeth for Goerlie. May be ETH foundation starts charging a little for it ? At the moment there seems to be hardly any way to get a significant amount of it.
Sepolia should not have the same long-term supply issues as Goerli because it uses an ERC20 token for the beacon chain, and therefore can mint more testnet ETH. @kladkogex if you need a short term “transition” amount of GoETH, let me know your address and roughly how much. Thanks!
