On May 24th, ALIENX Chain officially launched the HAL testnet and introduced a 3-week interactive airdrop campaign. ALIENX is a staking public chain driven by AI nodes and compatible with the EVM. Its aim is to solve the data security and privacy issues of traditional AI projects by combining AI technology with the decentralized nature of blockchain. It also seeks to achieve mass adoption of AI Dapps, NFTs, and GameFi. ALIENX has raised $17 million in funding from institutions such as OKX Ventures, C2 Ventures, and Next Leader Capital, with a valuation of $200 million in its latest funding round.
The release of the ALIENX HAL testnet signifies that the development of its mainnet is nearing completion. The testnet airdrop campaign will last for 3 weeks, and after its conclusion, ALIENX will release its mainnet and introduce its native token $AIX at the end of June.

II. ALIENX HAL Testnet Airdrop
The testnet of ALIENX Chain is named HAL, which is derived from the HAL 9000 artificial intelligence computer in the science fiction novel “2001: A Space Odyssey.” HAL represents the beginning of AI and also the beginning of ALIENX AI CHAIN. Any user can participate in the HAL testnet, and ALIENX will provide a faucet for users to claim and participate in various testing activities on the HAL testnet.
The campaign is divided into basic tasks and ecosystem project interaction tasks. Users who complete the tasks will receive $ALIEN test tokens, which are important credentials for participating in the testnet. The rewards earned from participating in the HAL testnet will be exchanged for $AIX tokens on the mainnet at a certain ratio.
III. Preparations for Testnet Interaction
ALIENX’s technical architecture is based on Arbitrum Orbit, and there are some preparations to be done before interacting with the testnet. Before starting the process, users need to prepare an EVM wallet, such as MetaMask or OKX Wallet, and connect the wallet to the HAL Network testnet by installing the wallet extension on Chrome and logging into the website.
