Just did the ethereum:0x467bccd9d29f223bce8043b84e8c8b282827790f update on both metamask and through the @telcoin wallet. Metamask took 30 seconds maybe? Telcoin wallet was less than 10 seconds. No issues. Just plain worked. The way things need to when your becoming an actual business. Good job guys!

There's nothing to take back, it's literally what i meant and said we'll see. You still have not answer the question i asked in this post regarding the reports.
The bank loan was in AUG 2025, why is it just now getting publish? was it an annual or quarterly report & will it be public or just council? "Revenue association can use to build out, faster the network grows, the more token will appreciate" lol ok, launch first & we'll see.

(sigh) the bank just started operations officially this year Literally 1...2....3 months ago... like a quarter of a year...like they are supposed to report every quarter... up until then what was there to report.. and we just finished up ok'ing the format for the update and investor letter... telco.in/en/newsroom/2026-06…

Just fyi; I didnt say the network growth wont appreciate token value incase you misinterpret it. All hypotheticals and speculation, i'm just saying, we'll know when it's launched. Right now the network still getting polished.

but how? What does this 2% stake in #telcoin bank entail for $tel holders precisely? "WE" is likely not token holders. Does the community get quarterly progress reports from the bank? When does 5% annual yield SAFE notes from the 5 billion TEL loan get converted into shares?

There are quarterly financial report that are provided to the councils…that format has been finalized and I believe the first one is due at the middle of next month So the SAFE notes are converted over into shares during their next series A raise …we get ALL the tokens back at the end of 2027 or the series A …whichever comes first It’s basically yet another avenue of revenue that the association can use to build out ….distribute rewards and basically grow the ecosystem The faster the network grows… the more the token will appreciate in value since it is the gas token of the network

I affirm this analysis
🚨 Telcoin mainnet watch: things are getting interesting. A few notable developments have landed over the past couple of days: 🔹 The remaining Adiri forks are now armed Telcoin merged the changes activating the remaining protocol upgrades on Adiri, including: • Governance Safe migration • Leader-seeded ordering • Multi-worker support • PREVRANDAO PR: github.com/Telcoin-Associati…⁠ 🔹 Validator/mainnet hardening is getting very specific Recent testing has focused on multi-validator operation, cold-genesis startup, validator recovery and network behaviour under heavy load — exactly the kind of operational edge cases you would expect to see tested as a network approaches production readiness. Cold-genesis PR: github.com/Telcoin-Associati…⁠ 🔹 TEL v3 migration begins September 24 The TEL upgrade is particularly relevant because the upgraded TEL is designed to become the native gas token of Telcoin Network. Telcoin has previously stated that this upgrade is required before the network can launch. Official info: tel3.telcoin.network⁠ 🔹 Mainnet infrastructure already exists in the deployment tooling Telcoin’s node deployment tooling already contains explicit support for mainnet, including mainnet genesis, committee and network parameter configuration. Repo: github.com/Telcoin-Associati…⁠ None of this confirms a launch date. But TEL v3 + the remaining Adiri forks + genesis/validator hardening + existing mainnet deployment infrastructure make this a very interesting period to watch. The next major signals I’m watching for: mainnet genesis finalization → production binaries/release tag → production endpoints → validator/MNO onboarding. $TEL 👀

🚨 $TEL : les signaux autour du mainnet deviennent de plus en plus difficiles à ignorer. TEL v3 démarre sa migration aujourd’hui, le nouveau $TEL est conçu pour devenir le gas natif de Telcoin Network, et les derniers upgrades du protocole Adiri sont programmés. En parallèle : hardening des validateurs, genesis, infrastructure de déploiement et préparation opérationnelle. ⚠️ Aucune date de lancement officielle confirmée. Mais la séquence est claire : TEL v3 → upgrades protocole → validators → genesis → production. $TEL 📈✅

Yeah it’s kind of maddening …if people would think a bit A. These tokens are meant to be spent to get the ecosystem moving B. We have 5 billion more in escrow that will be released at eoy 2027 and we will have roughly 2% stake in the bank The real question people need to rattle around in their noggins is Why was there a need for an increase in developer resources?

The concern here for @telcoin #telcoin $TEL is that money approved for exchange integration was used instead to pay Telcoin Inc.’s overdue August invoice for network work! then the community is being asked for another 137.5 million TEL to refill that same pot while the token upgrade is already live and CEX agreements are still only “in review.” That sequence looks like restricted treasury funds were diverted to cover a related party cash flow gap, after which token holders are asked to restock the budget before the original listings work is finished.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ What makes this more than a routine budget tweak is the timing and the conflict of roles. The upgrade is already live, so exchange support is the thing holders need most right now, yet the cash reserved for those deals was used to settle an overdue bill from Telcoin Inc. the same commercial entity whose work is being paid through Association treasuries that TAO itself administers. Asking for another 137.5 million TEL after the fact means the community is funding both the original development invoice and a replacement listings budget, while CEX conversion is still unsigned. That pattern raises a governance issue: if designated funds can be reassigned to pay a related vendor and then topped up with a new token allocation, treasury earmarks stop being binding and token holders absorb both the delay and the extra issuance.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ What does this do? self custody and Telcoin Wallet can move to new TEL today, exchange books cannot, which means two versions, thinning old TEL liquidity, and holders stuck choosing between waiting indefinitely or withdrawing to a wallet and doing the migration themselves. The $165k that was supposed to pay for those integrations was spent on Telcoin Inc.’s invoice instead, so the delay is not just slow paperwork, the exact work the treasury already funded and then redirected. Until listings and conversions are live, the token upgrade is live for the project and incomplete for a large share of users.
So the token upgrade is already here, yet the exchange agreements apparently still “remain in review.” The original $165k for exchange integration is now being used to pay @telcoin Inc.’s overdue August invoice, and another 137.5M $tel is being requested to refill the pot.

I’m really not sure where that is all derived from. The exchanges are going to support the token but they are each coming up with their own plans to do so because since it is a live asset there has to be some back and forth of “send me new tokens and we’ll send you old” type of stuff going on. The moving of funds is simply to balance out old invoices as we implement some more stringent controls….basically stuff that has to be done before the games begin…there’s nothing nefarious going on …they merely just got their books all together Why it took so long …Hell I don’t know …it’s accountants and blockchain probably not the best mix …but now they are straightened out going forward. So people need to not be surprised that there are more things that will be paid for as things need to be built out…the network is one piece of it. If you think that the network is it…you’d be wrong If you think the Telcoin Holdings wallet is THE only wallet…you’d be wrong There’s just a lot more that gets built onto a layer 1 than “just the chain” ethereum:0x467bccd9d29f223bce8043b84e8c8b282827790f

It’s basically baselining the associations books here before going ahead with new controls on services processes. Basically, the Storm financial people have gotten all the books reconciled …we’ve had some things to tighten up before other things can happen… There’s a lotta stuff that will be coming online here soon ethereum:0x467bccd9d29f223bce8043b84e8c8b282827790f
