| Testnet | Stable releases | An "alternate universe" network that acts as a testing ground for software built on the XRP Ledger, without impacting production XRP Ledger users and without risking real money. The [amendment status](known-amendments.html) of the Testnet is intended to closely mirror the Mainnet, although slight variations in timing may occur due to the unpredictable nature of decentralized systems. |

| Devnet | Beta releases | A preview of coming attractions, where unstable changes to the core XRP Ledger software may be tested out. Developers can use this altnet to interact with and learn about planned new XRP Ledger features and amendments that are not yet enabled on the Mainnet. |

Each altnet has its own separate supply of test XRP, which is [given away for free](xrp-testnet-faucet.html) to parties interested in experimenting with the XRP Ledger and developing applications and integrations. Test XRP does not have real-world value and is lost when the network is reset.

An issuing chain is an independent ledger with its own consensus algorithm and transaction types and rules. A wrapped version of the digital asset is minted and burned, depending on if an asset is received or sent from the locking chain.

**Note:** Bridges utilize special _door accounts_ when moving assets cross-chain. The door account on a locking chain is used to put assets into trust, and the door account on an issuing chain used to issue wrapped assets.

Both the locking and issuing chains operate as parallel networks with independent nodes and validators. They rely on independent [witness servers](witness-servers.html) to watch transactions between the two chains and attest that assets have moved into specifically designated accounts.

Sidechains can customize the XRP Ledger protocol to the needs of a specific use case or project and run it as its own blockchain. Some examples include:
|
||||
|
||||
* Adding a smart contract layer, powered by an engine compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), web assembly, or a Move VM. For an example, see: [Hooks](https://hooks-testnet.xrpl-labs.com/).
|
||||
* Adding a smart contract layer. See: [Xahau](https://xahau.network/)
|
||||
* Adding Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatibility. See: [EVM Sidechain](https://opensource.ripple.com/docs/evm-sidechain/intro-to-evm-sidechain/).
|
||||
* Building your own algorithmic stable coin with customised ledger types and transaction rules.
|
||||
* Building permissioned or nearly permissionless, centralized or largely decentralized ledgers whose assets can be traded on the Mainnet [decentralized exchange](decentralized-exchange.html).
