The IDOS Token will launch mid
Q1 2026

Let’s get straight to the point: we are moving the IDOS Token launch to mid Q1 2026. We are talking about weeks, not several months.

‍

Until last week, we had a concrete plan to launch the token in Q4 2025, as we originally communicated. However, we believe that moving the launch forward a few more weeks will be better for everyone involved in the project.

Remember: the team has the same incentives to launch the token that any other participant in the project has, with the only obvious difference being that we have much longer vestings. We are here to make idOS work for the long term, and we believe a few weeks now can make a very positive difference.

‍

Let’s break down why:

‍

1. First of all, this change has nothing to do with internal constraints. We have received offers from almost all top-tier exchanges (which we will share as soon as we are able to) - and have already signed agreements for Q1, the idOS Token and Economy smart contracts are published and audited, our integrations and commercial agreements with clients are proceeding as planned, we have completed the key regulatory steps, and the team has been working relentlessly towards the token and network launch for months.
2. We have been in close discussions with listing venues for several months. Conversations with two top-tier listing venues did not go as planned. One of them (now signed) had to move the launch window for idOS from December to Q1 because of internal operational reasons. Negotiations on terms with another venue took longer than expected. They insisted on requirements such as revising unlocks and vestings, that we strongly believe don’t align with the interests of our backers and community. We are reevaluating the terms, and hopefully reaching a conclusion soon. In any case, we believe we have already secured good alternatives.
3. The market in Q4 has not performed as well as most people expected. Although we reached the contribution goal, launching the community sale a few weeks ago in an “Extreme Fear” market was clear validation that market conditions now are not the best, and they highly influence demand. We can’t know if this will change in a few weeks, but the additional weeks certainly help us structure the launch in a way that fits the current market dynamics and includes more listing venues.
   
   

What’s going to happen next:

‍

1. It’s not fair to the community to just extend our ongoing campaigns. Epoch II in the idOS App and Wallchain will end this Sunday, December 21st, 11:59 PM UTC. Epoch Ω (Omega) will start right away, and will go until TDE. Details on incentives will be shared soon, but community sale participants will have a multiplier on both points in the idOS App and the Wallchain platform.
2. The TDE exact date will be shared as soon as we can. We are coordinating the final timing with our partner exchanges.
3. Do you have more questions? Join us for an AMA this Wednesday, December 17. We will try to answer all the community questions transparently.

‍

We are moving the launch a few weeks because we are convinced it is the best for idOS. We have been building in the decentralized identity space since 2017. We have been specifically building idOS for 3 years. We have strong indications of demand for our solution and a clear path to PMF from the market. The team would love to launch tomorrow, but we decided to stay disciplined for a few more weeks to optimize for years of idOS to come.

Thank you for your support,

The idOS team
