Today is the DAY! 🥕 We’re super excited to announce that we’re entering our Public Whitelist Testnet phase: Kakarot Sepolia! WTF is @KakarotZkEvm, and how to ape 🧵 Kakarot is an EVM-compatible ZK-Rollup built on the Cairo stack! On Testnet, Kakarot is a Ethereum Sepolia Layer 2, meaning that you just need to change your RPC to interact on Kakarot!
