Daily snapshots for the persistent testnet can be found at [https://snapshots.tempoxyz.dev](https://snapshots.tempoxyz.dev). You can extract them either using
`tempo download --url <snapshot_url>` or downloading them manually and extracting them using `curl <snapshot_url> | lz4 -d | tar -xzf -`.

> **⚠️ Important: Testnet Configuration**
>
> When using a snapshot for the **Testnet** (Chain ID 42429), you must start the node with the `--chain testnet` flag.
>
> If you omit this flag, the node will default to Mainnet configuration, causing a `genesis hash mismatch` panic.
>
> **Correct usage:**
> ```bash
> tempo node --chain testnet --follow ...
> ```
