Exactly one year ago, on 11 November 2024, the Fone Network launched its custom-built mobile blockchain, and today we proudly celebrate its first anniversary. What a year it has been! A year of innovation, expansion, breakthroughs, community growth, and non-stop building toward a robust decentralized ecosystem.
Legacy Account Migration Is Now Officially Closed
As of today, the migration window for all legacy accounts across all apps and games has officially ended.
Management will now begin a complete calculation and reconciliation phase to determine the total amount of FONE that was not migrated. Once the final numbers are confirmed, we will proceed with a burn event to remove the unmigrated supply from circulation.
A detailed announcement will follow once the calculations are complete.
SDK Hackathon Momentum Is Incredible
We are thrilled to share that the SDK Hackathon is in full force!
Participating teams have already started sending us access to their internal builds, and what we’re seeing is nothing short of amazing.
From games, tools, utilities, and integrations — the creativity, quality, and ambition behind these projects is unbelievable. Watching these ideas come to life on the Fone Network is proof that our developer community is powerful and growing.
Thank you to every developer, validator, community member, and player who helped push the Fone Network forward over the past year.
This is only the beginning. The next 12 months will be even bigger.
The registration period for the Fone Network SDK has officially concluded!
Over 10 project teams reached out with exciting ideas to integrate FONE into innovative apps and platforms.
Some teams did not have active developers to bring their concepts to life, others are working on larger projects that require more than a month to complete, and a few decided to continue developing privately until the public SDK release.
After careful review, we’ve selected the Top 3 projects that will officially compete in this SDK Challenge and bring their MVPs to life:
⸻
1. Crypto NeoGenesis
A hybrid mini-game ecosystem where players collect puzzle pieces to unlock unique monsters, each offering gameplay boosts like increased XP, Gold, or FONE rewards.
Users can play games such as Flappy Bird, Wordle, Blackjack, and more, earning in-game currency and tokens — all powered by the Fone Network for a fun, rewarding experience.
⸻
2. Eco-Verify
A Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Protocol (DePIN) that rewards users with FONE for completing real-world “green verification” missions, like validating recycling points or solar panels.
By staking and validating each other’s submissions, participants ensure data integrity, transparency, and environmental impact through blockchain-backed verification.
⸻
3. SmartWear Commerce
An e-commerce platform dedicated to selling next-generation Smart Glasses and Smart Bracelets that seamlessly connect to the Fone Network ecosystem.
Customers will be able to explore, purchase, and later integrate their wearable data with FONE-powered applications, bridging physical products with digital rewards.
⸻
SDK Access & Security
The selected teams now receive exclusive access to the Fone Network SDK, enabling direct interaction with the Fone blockchain.
Sharing your private key or SDK credentials is strictly prohibited.
Any detected sharing or misuse will result in immediate revocation of access.
⸻

This marks an important step toward empowering creators to build with FONE, expand the ecosystem, and bring real-world utility to the blockchain.
Stay tuned for more exciting news and updates soon!
Community Update – Dubai, SDK Schedule, Migrations & BEP-20 Deposits
The event in Dubai was fantastic and full of high-quality conversations and a ton of potential opportunities for Fone Network and 3TV. Over the next two weeks, our team will meet with everyone who showed deeper interest to explore partnerships and next steps. We’ll share more updates later this month once those meetings wrap.
SDK timeline – shifted by one week
Due to a hectic investor week around October 10 in Dubai (and to ensure we speak with all Hackathon participants), the SDK milestones shift by one week. Thank you to all already-approved projects for your patience.
New schedule:
– October 1 to October 17 – Developers email contact@fone.dev to request participation.
– October 20 – Official participants announced, along with exclusive access to the API-based Fone Network SDK.
– October 20 – November 21 – 30 days to deliver at least a Minimum Viable Product – MVP released on the Web, Google Play, or the Apple App Store written in a preferred programming language.
Weekly Updates – Every Friday until the final due date.
– November 21 – Final submission deadline.
– November 24 – 28 – Community voting to decide the winners.
Legacy account migrations – final reminder
Legacy account migrations end on November 11, 2025 (exactly one year after the Fone mainnet launch).
Please complete your migration before November 11. Once the window closes, migrations will no longer be available.
Important for holders of FONE (BEP-20 on BSC)
To make our restructuring as smooth and accurate as possible, all FONE on Binance Smart Chain (BEP-20) must be deposited into your Fone Wallet. Consolidating balances inside the Fone ecosystem greatly simplifies the process. For FONE on MEXC, you need to go to the withdrawal section to see it as it is no longer listed in the balance section.
Stay tuned for more exciting news and announcements soon.
We are delighted to announce that Fone Network is moving to the next level.
If you have not seen the latest Livestream, the Founder and CEO Ivan Likov did a few days ago, we highly encourage you to watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2q2CQ3vi_4
During recent travels to Dubai to establish a new partnership between Fone Network and 3TV Dubai, Ivan met with a Holding company that operates in the same domain as Fone, with technology, legal and advisory departments that specialize in structuring and administration.
After numerous meetings and countless hours spent, we have built trust and signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to partner together to bring Fone to new horizons.
We are finalizing the structure and exploring the best way to proceed in accordance with the UAE regulatory and standards.
During this process, trading on Probit Global is paused. Since MEXC does not have a pausing practice, we have requested to be delisted, with the opportunity to list again after the process is complete.
This is a standard practice and typically takes between one and three months; however, we will strive to be ready as soon as possible.
The moment we gain access to the UAE regulatory requirements, we will have access to more liquidity and use cases, which will help us grow the project and expand our business with additional opportunities.
Stay tuned for more details and updates regarding the upgrade soon.
We are thrilled to announce that the Fone Network WEB3 Hackathon begins today.
Developers can request to participate by emailing contact@fone.dev.
Our CEO, Ivan Likov, will personally reach out to schedule a call to discuss your project idea or existing application that could integrate FONE.

We have a vital announcement to make regarding Green Karma.
Green Karma was launched back in 2020 as a partnership between Fone Network and the CO2 Cards company. Fone Network built the game and assisted in the continued development based on CO2 Cards’ requests and needs.
Today, we are pleased to announce that our partnership has evolved. Fone Network has acquired the intellectual property of the game and is relaunching it under the main account on Google Play. CO2 Cards will continue to be the partner when offsetting carbon emissions. Having said that, the game is now available as a new app on Google Play, allowing everyone to log in to their legacy accounts and migrate them to the latest version.
The game is now fully updated and running on the Fone Network blockchain, featuring built-in wallet creation and import functionality.
Open boosters and gather project cards. Collect 50 and redeem them for great rewards, while offsetting 500g CO2 and supporting real-life environmental projects.
We are also preparing the game for its initial release on iOS as soon as the legacy account migration ends.
Thank you for your continued support. Stay tuned for more exciting news and announcements soon!

By entering, participants agree to grant FONE Network full ownership rights to their submitted mascot, including but not limited to the use of the artwork, name, and likeness in all branding, promotional, commercial, and community materials. Participants acknowledge that submission of an entry constitutes a complete transfer of rights to FONE Network, and no additional compensation will be owed beyond the contest rewards, which will be distributed to the winner in exchange for the NFT being transferred to the Official Fone Network Wallet.

Introducing the all-new Cloud Earning!
We have rebuilt the one feature everyone loves from the ground up!
Activate up to three Cloud Earning sessions daily and earn FONE pegged to the current price on exchanges.
Unlike previous versions, this time the sessions will be backed by FONE purchases made directly from exchanges by the team. To celebrate the new release, enjoy a special 1:1 earning rate until October 15th!
Stay tuned for more exciting news and announcements soon!
2. On September 8, 2025, make one single deposit transaction of all your purchased FONE into your Fone Wallet.
3. We will identify the Top 5 by the largest single deposits, reward them, and announce the winners on Sept 9.
🔒 Fair Event Rules
• To ensure fairness, the FONE Bridge will remain closed until the event ends. This prevents users from depositing FONE from outside sources (like their Fone Wallet) to try and claim rewards.
• Winners must provide proof of purchase (exchange order history / ProBit Global trade record). Deposits originating from other exchanges (e.g., MEXC) will not be eligible.
• Only ProBit Global purchases count toward this event.
• Multiple deposits will not be combined — only one single transaction on Sept 8 will be considered.
• Bonuses are paid in FONE directly to your Fone Wallet after verification.
• Fraudulent activity (wash trading, self-dealing, etc.) will result in disqualification.
Stack your FONE, secure your spot, and aim for the top!
You can now track the live price of FONE directly from the MEXC Exchange, along with a 30-day price chart to help you stay on top of market trends.
All USD values shown across the app are now calculated based on the real-time FONE price from MEXC.
By popular demand, the Cloud Validator program has returned! You now have the option to choose between 5 different validator tiers, with earning potential ranging from 500 FONE to 60,000 FONE.
Please Note:
The amount of FONE earned through Cloud Validators is not tied to the current exchange price, as it factors in multiple internal metrics.
Given the recent high volatility and sell pressure, these validator packages are being offered at a higher internal valuation to discourage short-term flips and help support long-term price health.
Thank you for your continued support and for helping build the future of decentralized mobile finance.
Stay tuned for more exciting news and updates soon!
