Glue's AlphaNet is deployed for everyone to have an opportunity to dive into a world where possibilities are limitless and learning is key. Whether you're a seasoned trader or just starting out in crypto, Glue's AlphaNet gives everyone a chance to trade, transact, and learn, all while preparing for the launch of Glue mainnet.

### **What to Expect**

This is a AlphaNet. While the network is stable and continues to receive updates, it remains a testing environment and users may experience occasional instability or reduced performance.

As with any AlphaNet, glitches and bugs may arise, some known and some unknown. Giving feedback and telling us about your experience, or a bug you might find is very important to us. It allows Glue to improve the right way and benefit from the collective wisdom of the community.

So make sure you get in touch to let us know what you think and what you found. We have a form for [reporting bugs](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSequ6cF8h_dp9UnHDyOpodI3eZsJBoeAlyV909sNtfcU2iUKA/viewform) and a form for [feedback](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScqnpfhQdFb3ETYiSfME9aHcQ1CW0hXLHGm3c5QZTTTkOObEQ/viewform).&#x20;
