Introducing the Prodigy Dual Investment Testnet

Welcome to Prodigy! We’re very excited to have you participate in our development process as we prepare to launch the first product on our platform, Dual Investment. The Dual Investment Testnet presents an incredible opportunity for users to help us get our dual investment product ready for mainnet by being part of building the protocol.

While we will begin with Dual Investment on Polygon, later this year we look forward to the testnet and launch of our Perpetual Futures product.
