Season 1 Testnet is officially complete! Final points are in, and we’re excited to share the results from Season 1!
During Season 1, the community helped build, break, improve, and shape the network — and will be remembered as the network’s very first Founding Members.
A total pool of up to 30,000,000 tokens is currently planned to be made available to 123 Season 1 participants.*
</aside>
◦ 10M+ transactions ◦ 100+ mobile nodes ◦ 50+ usernode mobile app releases ◦ 8 hackathon apps ◦ 1,300+ merged PRs for community apps
This season also pushed the vision forward. We didn’t just test a mobile-run blockchain — we expanded what user ownership means.
Apps on our network are built with users, not just for them. We see a clear gap in this new wave of AI where creating apps is becoming easier than ever, but most are still shaped by one person or company. Our network creates more user-aligned apps where its users can suggest changes, improve what gets shipped, and be recognized for the value they contribute.
Here is a more detailed Season 1 retrospective and community survey results.
Now we’re focused on turning everything we learned into a simpler, clearer, stronger Season 2.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll enter a code freeze and upgrade period. During this time, parts of the test app and testnet chain may not function as usual while we prepare for Season 2.
Before Season 2, we’ll focus on:
◦ Smoother UX/UI and mobile node operation (battery, background running, monitoring) ◦ Better iOS onboarding, delegation testing, and challenge tracking ◦ Stronger dApp tooling: debugging, logs, staging clarity, agent feedback ◦ Deeper Usernode-native wallet and on-chain integration
No action is needed from you right now. One quick but important note: Your allocation is indicative and based on your Season 1 contributions. Any future distribution is conditional on mainnet network launch, eligibility verification, and the Usernode Testnet Program Terms, which you’ll be asked to review and accept before viewing your allocation.
We’ll share clear instructions closer to mainnet launch. To see your indicative allocation for Season 1:
◦ Upgrade to the latest of the app: version: 0.3.3 / build: 1215. Android/ iOS ◦ Open the Usernode app and go to your Profile page from the top-left corner ◦ Tap Reveal to view your indicative token allocation calculated for you based on your Season 1 contributions.
Is my allocation guaranteed? No. Allocations are indicative only. Any future distribution depends on mainnet launch (which is not guaranteed) and on the Usernode Testnet Program Terms, and amounts, methodology, and eligibility may change.
Do the tokens exist today? No. No tokens will be created or distributed unless and until mainnet launches.
Can I transfer or sell my allocation? No. Indicative allocations are personal, non-transferable, and non-assignable.
Is everyone eligible? Eligibility is subject to verification and applicable law. Persons in certain jurisdictions may not be able to participate in any future distribution.
What about taxes? You are responsible for your own tax consequences. Nothing in this announcement is financial, tax, or legal advice.
When will unlock or vesting details be shared? Unlock and vesting details have not been set yet. Any details will be shared closer to mainnet launch and will be subject to the terms.
Thank you to everyone who participated. Whether you ran a node, tested dApps, submitted feedback, opened issues, built apps, joined townhalls, voted, reviewed PRs, or helped others in Discord — you helped shape the first version of this network. Season 1 Founding Members are officially part of our history. Season 2 is coming soon.
