"Bence Mina testnet'i diğer testnetlerle kıyaslandığında çok kolay ulaşılabilir. Yapılması gerekenlerle ilgili herşey adım adım bilgi dokumanlarında paylaşılıyor. ve bu özellikle benim gibi teknik uzman olmayanlar için çok önemli."

"Bir Mina nodeu çalıştırmaya başlamak için gereksinimler çok az ve çok teknik bilgi sahibi olmanız gerekmiyor. Birçok kişi sadece 10 dakika içerisinde mevcut bilgi dokumanlarını inceleyerek başlayabilir."

My measure of a project isn't the quality of the tech. It’s the quality of the community. I wouldn't have been able to spin my node up if it weren't for the insanely great members that helped me. And that's something special.
