The Ocean Protocol v0.9 (Trilobite) Testnet is an Ethereum [Proof-of-Authority (PoA) network](https://wiki.parity.io/Proof-of-Authority-Chains) where all the nodes (Keeper nodes) are running [Parity Ethereum](https://www.parity.io/ethereum/). The Nile Testnet is an Ethereum [Proof-of-Authority (PoA) network](https://wiki.parity.io/Proof-of-Authority-Chains) where all the nodes (Keeper nodes) are running [Parity Ethereum](https://www.parity.io/ethereum/).
There are two kinds of Keeper nodes in the Trilobite Testnet: authority nodes (voting nodes) and user nodes (non-voting nodes). There are two kinds of Keeper nodes in the Nile Testnet: authority nodes (voting nodes) and user nodes (non-voting nodes).
Authority nodes have a say in determining which transactions are valid. _In the Trilobite Testnet_, the authority nodes are run by BigchainDB GmbH and its partners. If you're interested in running an authority node in the Trilobite Testnet, then email <a href="mailto:info@oceanprotocol.com">info@oceanprotocol.com</a>.

Anyone can run a user node. It will stay in sync with the other nodes in the Trilobite Testnet, it just won't have a say on whether transactions are valid. Anyone can run a user node.

If you want to interact with a testnet, then you'll eventually need Ether or Ocean Tokens _for that testnet_. (Every Ethereum-based network has its own Ether and its own Ocean Tokens, and you can't use those in other networks, or at least it wasn't possible when we wrote this.)

At the time of writing, there were two public testnets you could use to test an Ocean Protocol application: the Kovan Testnet and the Ocean Testnet. For more information about those, see the page about [testnets](/concepts/testnets/). You could also run a local testnet (i.e. on your local machine).
