Step-by-Step Guide to K2 Testnet: From Acorns to Matchsticks on Camp’s Onchain Hub

I’ve been testing out @campnetworkxyz’s K2 Testnet, and honestly, this is how an incentivized testnet should feel.

Instead of mindless tasks or generic faucets, Camp has turned its first #onchain hub on BaseCAMP into an actual exploration. Here’s what stood out to me so far 👇🏻

1/ The climb has purpose

They call it “Climb to the Summit,” and it’s not just branding. K2 (named after the Himalayan peak) is a multi-week journey where each quest unlocks new partners, apps, games, and #DeFi tools built on Camp.

Every stop teaches you something real about what’s being built.

2/ You earn as you go: Matchsticks

Quests reward you with “Matchsticks” (Camp’s onchain points on BaseCAMP).

– 1 for social tasks

– 2 for easy onchain steps

– 3 for deeper or multi-step quests

Your progress is tracked across zones like Social Sparks and your leaderboard ranking updates live.

3/ Acorn OGs didn’t get left behind

If you joined the old social-only hub, your Acorns were converted to Matchsticks at 100:1.

Now everything is onchain, and progress actually matters. That’s a big upgrade in how testnets reward early community effort.

I’ve minted #NFTs, explored AI games, interacted with onchain art, and even predicted outcomes on some social prediction dApps.

Each quest feels like you're helping test something with real intention, not just clicking buttons for airdrops.

What I like most is that Camp isn’t just building a testnet, it’s building a story.
