# Guide on participating in the ropsten tBTC to KEEP exchange program As per the recent team announcement, > This program will be a separate pool of KEEP rewards from Playing for Keeps, our monthly incentivized testnet. In addition to the 2M KEEP rewarded tomorrow for June's submissions, we'll announce bug bounties tiers this week, as well as a testnet TBTC to mainnet KEEP exchange program.
