FAQ:

Q: Do I need to update my wallet?
A: You only need to update your wallet if you plan on trying out the testnet asset layer. The wallet will work for the mainnet as well.

Q: What is a testnet?
A: A testnet is a completely separate blockchain from the main Ravencoin chain. It is meant for testing purposes only, and Ravencoins mined or sent on this chain have no value.

Q: Why don't I see any asset stuff on the testnet GUI?
A: Asset layer will be activated on the testnet using the BIP9 protocol. It will activate when 65% of the mined blocks in a 2016 retargeting period are mined by the new version. Asset layer GUI is hidden until the asset functionality is active. Read more about the process (which will be similar with the mainnet hardfork on October 31) here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RxRokp_P9Iu7eqKdfR7wj2D7bqMwqnd_l3R1yjq633k/
