State of the Network
Jalapeno Mainnet - Default network
Right now, Lit Protocol is in an alpha mainnet state (the "Jalapeno Mainnet") and we are running all the nodes. It is unaudited and the nodes are not distributed yet. There are various security improvements to be made, and cryptoeconomic guarantees as a result of staking are not in place yet. Data is persistent and we plan to support this network in perpetuity. We are in the active process of decentralizing and working towards a decentralized mainnet release. The Jalapeno network is the default. You can also specify this network via the litNetwork: "jalapeno"
option in your LitNodeClient
config.

Serrano Developer Preview
The Lit Actions and PKP network (the "Serrano Testnet") is in a developer preview state.
The data on the Serrano Testnet is not persistent and may be erased at any time. Therefore, we do not recommend storing anything of value on the Serrano Testnet. You may use the Serrano testnet by installing the latest @lit-protocol/lit-node-client
package and specifying litNetwork: "serrano"
in your LitNodeClient
config. You can find more info in the Lit Actions sections of the docs.
