Although you can’t safely use taproot before block 709,632 on mainnet, you can use taproot today with either testnet or signet. Compared to creating a local test network with Bitcoin Core’s regtest mode, as done in the Optech taproot workbooks, using testnet or signet makes it easier to test how your wallet interacts with other people’s wallets.
