InterLink Makes Big Mainnet Promise

Chairman Pledges No Token Sales During Mainnet Rollout

InterLink (@inter_link) Chairman KV (@kv_interlink) announced that the project is entering the first stage of its Private Mainnet rollout, marking a significant step forward for the human-centric blockchain network. In the same statement, KV pledged that the foundation will not sell $ITLG or ITL tokens during the Private Mainnet phase and said the project has enough funding to sustain operations for at least five years.

The announcement arrives at a sensitive moment for the community, with ongoing debate around token verification delays, funding transparency, and the broader direction of the ecosystem. The no-sell commitment appears designed to address those concerns directly and reassure users ahead of a major technical milestone.

What InterLink Is Building

InterLink is a human-centric blockchain project building what it describes as the world's largest verified human network, using a dual-token model: ITLG for utility and governance, and ITL for institutional access. Its Proof of Personhood consensus mechanism is designed to ensure only verified humans can participate in mining, governance, and network validation, eliminating bot manipulation and fake accounts.

The InterLink mainnet is designed as a payment-ready Layer-1 blockchain, optimised for high transaction throughput and real-world usage rather than experimental activity. The project has already launched several products, including Interlink QR Payment, ITLX DeFi, and the Interlink Visa Card, with the private Interlink Chain L1 still upcoming.

ITLG serves as the genesis token, earned exclusively through mining by verified humans, and governs the InterLink DAO while playing a central role in expanding the human network. The planned Token Generation Event will use a linear vesting model tied to token holdings, with lock-ups lasting up to 180 months, a deliberate move to reduce sell pressure and promote long-term alignment.

InterLink had previously confirmed that its airdrop distribution and Token Generation Event would take place in Q1 2026, though the team stated that the timeline remains flexible and further updates would be provided if scheduling adjustments were required. The Private Mainnet announcement suggests the project is now actively progressing through those planned milestones, though no confirmed listing date has been announced.

The foundation's five-year funding runway claim has not been independently verified. Community members and prospective participants should monitor official InterLink channels for further disclosures on funding and the mainnet timeline.
