# Safenet Beta

> Current status of the Safenet Beta network - what is live, what is being tested, and how to observe network activity.

Safenet Beta is the first live deployment of the Safenet protocol. It runs with a permissioned Validator set and focuses on core consensus, transaction attestation, and SAFE token staking.

## What is live in Beta

* Validator coordination and threshold signing (FROST)
* SAFE token staking and open delegation
* Transaction proposal and attestation flow
* Static transaction security checks
* Public explorer for network activity

## Beta goals

Safenet Beta is designed to validate the protocol's core assumptions under real-world conditions:

* Can the Validator network reliably process transaction checks at scale?
* Can Validator participation be measured and enforced through reward eligibility?
* Can SAFE staking and delegation bootstrap meaningful economic security?

Beta staking rewards are subsidized for an initial period. Long-term, rewards will be funded by transaction fees paid by users and integrators.

## Validator set

The Beta Validator set consists of Validators run by independent organizations, selected by the Safe Ecosystem Foundation. All Validators must maintain a minimum self-stake of 3,500,000 SAFE.

Validator coordination is handled via contracts on Gnosis Chain. Deployment info:

* Consensus contract: `0x223624cBF099e5a8f8cD5aF22aFa424a1d1acEE9`
* Coordinator contract: `0xaE27021CEB45316f1efe69D8E362aC07ED3Bd7E4`

Safenet Beta uses the following permissioned Validator set:

| Validator          | Address                                      |
| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------- |
| Gnosis             | `0x3D58a5475c1336b0A755c3aBd298CeB9b7BB9CDe` |
| Greenfield         | `0x7B0A8EFA45dE81F11F2846EC28259B62155a2b37` |

A JSON with validator stats is published at [safe-fndn/safebet-beta-data](https://github.com/safe-fndn/safenet-beta-data/blob/main/assets/validator-info.json).

## Transaction checks

In Safenet Beta, Validators attest to a fixed set of static security checks. These checks are fully deterministic: given the same transaction data, every honest Validator reaches the same conclusion.

[Current checks applied to every proposed Safe transaction:](https://github.com/safe-research/safenet/tree/beta/validator/src/consensus/verify/safeTx/checks)

* No unexpected delegatecalls
* Upgrade only to trusted Safe Singletons
* Only allow adding trusted Safe Modules
* Only trusted Safe Fallback Handlers can be set
* Only trusted Safe Guards can be set

Advanced, context-specific checks (transfer volume analysis, allow/deny lists, actively exploited contracts) are planned for later phases. See the [Roadmap](/safenet/overview/roadmap).

## Scope and limitations

Safenet Beta is a deliberate starting point:

* **Safe transactions on EVM chains only**
* **Permissioned Validator set**: Validators are selected by the Safe Ecosystem Foundation
* **Static security checks only**: no open Transaction Checker market yet
* **No slashing**: stake is not at risk of being slashed in Beta

See the [Roadmap](/safenet/overview/roadmap) for what comes after Beta.

## Explorer

The Beta Explorer is a public tool for viewing transactions proposed and checked by the Safenet Validator set. See the [FAQ](/safenet/resources/faq) for details.
