## Testnet Ocean Tokens ## Testnet Ocean Tokens
There are Ocean Tokens in several testnets, including the Kovan testnet and Nile testnet. They are just testnet Ocean Tokens (i.e. for testing purposes only) and they aren't interchangeable with Mainnet Ocean Tokens.

If you acquired Ocean Tokens in the initial circulating supply, they will be sent to the address you provided. If you acquired Ocean Tokens in the initial circulating supply, they should have been, or will be, sent to the address you provided, in the Ethereum Mainnet.
In the future, the Ocean Mainnet will be launched and later it will become possible to move Ocean Tokens from the Ethereum Mainnet to the Ocean Mainnet. In the future, the [Ocean Production Network](/concepts/production-network/) will be launched and later it will become possible to move Ocean Tokens from the Ethereum Mainnet to the Ocean Production Network.
It _won't_ be possible to use Mainnet Ocean Tokens for Ocean Protocol tasks (such as consuming assets) in the Ethereum Mainnet. It _will_ be possible to use Mainnet Ocean Tokens for Ocean Protocol tasks in the Ocean Mainnet. At the time of writing, Ethereum Mainnet Ocean Tokens could not be used for Ocean Protocol tasks (such as purchasing a data set) in the Ethereum Mainnet.

title: The Ocean Production Network
description: An introduction to the Ocean Production Network.

**At the time of writing, there was no live, running, publicly-available Ocean Production Network.**
Ocean Protocol makes use of several EVM networks, including:
- the Ethereum Mainnet (also called the Main Ethereum Network),
- various [testnets](/concepts/testnets/), and
- in the future, the Ocean Production Network.
The Ocean Production Network will be an EVM network of nodes ("keepers") running [Parity Ethereum](https://www.parity.io/ethereum/) software. Various Ocean Protocol smart contracts ("keeper contracts") will be deployed to it. It will be used for production use cases. It is also known by other names, including:
- The Main Ocean Network
- The Ocean Mainnet
- The Ocean Live Network
- (among the internal dev team) The Ocean Pacific Network, or just Pacific
"Network" is sometimes shortened to just "Net."
[Ocean Tokens](/concepts/ocean-tokens/) can, in principle, live in any EVM network. The ones sold in the Ocean Protocol token sale were in the Ethereum Mainnet (and still were, at the time of writing). For more information, see [the page about Ocean Tokens](/concepts/ocean-tokens/).
TODO: search in files for all references to the Ocean Mainnet etc.
