Wococo is a bridge testnet. General users can obtain WOOK by posting `!drip <WOCOCO_ADDRESS>` in the
Matrix chatroom [#wococo-faucet:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/#wococo-faucet:matrix.org).

## Running a validator on a testnet

To verify your validator set up, it is possible to run it against a PoS test network such as Westend
or Wococo. However, validator slots are intentionally limited on Westend to ensure the stability and
availability of the testnet for the Polkadot release process. As such it is advised for node
operators wishing to run testnet validators to join the Wococo network. You can obtain WOOK tokens
[here](../learn/learn-DOT.md#getting-tokens-on-the-wococo-testnet).

Here is a small comparison of each network characteristics as relevant to validators:

| epoch | 4h | 1h | 10m |
| era | 1d | 6h | 1h |

### Wococo Test Network
### Wococo Test Network (inactive)

Wococo is a test network of Polkadot built for bridges. The native token of this network (WOOK)
holds no economic value.

Run the Polkadot binary and specify `rococo` as the chain:

```bash
polkadot --chain=wococo
```

and you will connect and start syncing to Wococo.

#### Wococo Faucet

Follow the instruction [here](../learn/learn-DOT.md#getting-tokens-on-the-wococo-testnet) to get
WOOKs tokens.
Wococo used to be a Polkadot test network for testing bridges. The network was shut down following
the bridge between Westend and Rococo deployment.
