$TEL David Palmer, the Telcoin Association’s new Strategic Telecom Advisor, joins Parker Spann in an X Space.

Parker, founder of the Telcoin Association, spearheaded the initiative to bring David on as Strategic Telecom Advisor.

“You’ve been working with David for some time now. Why David, and why now?”

Parker answers:

“Generally, with the GSMA and the standards bodies, they are not going to respond as well to vendors as they are going to respond to peers… You don’t find someone with this deep telecom background who’s also very much a blockchain advocate, with over a decade of experience in that, 25 years in the telecom business, and on a first-name basis with every decision-maker in the world for our target segment… It’s a perfect match made in heaven.”

$TEL David Palmer, the Telcoin Association’s new Strategic Telecom Advisor, explains how Telcoin can help power the AI economy through digital identity, stablecoin infrastructure, and systems of record.

“We are moving into the AI economy, regardless of whether we like it or not… Actually, our agents will need wallets. They will need connectivity and act on our behalf… And the key ingredient for Telcoin is they could be the system of records… They can provide the stablecoin infrastructure for this… the telco digital identity that’s already there.”

$TEL David Palmer, the Telcoin Association’s new Strategic Telecom Advisor, explains why Telcoin is well positioned to help mobile network operators enter the next frontier of digital money.

“The link between telecommunications, payments, and money…This is where I think Telcoin is very well positioned…Telcoin, being a blockchain, a mobile operator, and a bank that issues stablecoins, has the key infrastructure needed for mobile operators to enter this digital frontier of digital money and stablecoins.”

$TEL David Palmer, the Telcoin Association’s new Strategic Telecom Advisor, answers these questions:

Why Should Mobile Network Operators Care About How Money Moves?

How money moves today is broken? Why should a mobile network operator care? Those may seem like two very distinct things, but in some parts of the world, they coincide significantly.

“I am really excited to have joined Telcoin as a strategic advisor. The telecoms industry is having to evolve quickly to provide value as part of the new digital infrastructure to support the new digital world, which includes connectivity, Fintech Web3, and AI.

$TEL Telcoin Association Names David Palmer as Strategic Telecom Advisor

“The industry that standardized GSM, SMS, and roaming is built to coordinate a global standard for money,” said Parker Spann, Founder of the Telcoin Association. “Telcoin Network gives operators that standard to own and govern together.”

“Mobile operators already run the world’s most trusted networks for communication. Telcoin Network lets them extend that trust to money, on a standard they own rather than rent,” said Palmer. “There are over 8 billion mobile phones and more than 20 billion machines connected by mobile operators around the world.”

Palmer and Spann will discuss his work and take questions from the community in an X Space on Thursday, October 15, at 6:00 PM UK / 7:00 PM CET / 12:00 PM CT, hosted on @telcoinTAO: Telcoin Association (@TelcoinTAO) / X.

$TEL TEL Token Upgrade — Action Required

Everyone will need to upgrade their old TEL tokens to the new TEL tokens.

New TEL is the only version supported on Telcoin Network. Old TEL is being retired.

The upgrade period lasts 24 months, divided into two windows:

• Months 1 to 12 (Primary Window):

Full 1:1 upgrade for everyone. This is the simple, certain path, and the one we encourage everyone to take.

• Months 12 to 24 (Extended Window):

1:1 upgrades continue from the remaining reserve, first come first served, until month 24 or the reserve runs out.

• After Month 24: Upgrade support ends; any remaining reserve moves to the Treasury via the governed close out process.

This applies whether your TEL is in the Telcoin Wallet, DeFi Wallet, Exchange, Hardware Wallet or in a liquidity pool or TELx position.

Check the Current New TEL Exchange (CEX) Status

If it is in discussion, do not upgrade yet.

$TEL TELx: Swap Stablecoins at 1:1 — Without Slippage

Imagine swapping one stablecoin for another at a 1:1 rate.

TELx enables users to swap USDC for eUSD at the bank’s peg-stability vault on Ethereum, Polygon, and Base.

Most of the time, swapping between digital currencies can mean the amount you receive shifts with market conditions.

A little slippage. A difference in price. Small changes that affect the outcome.

The eUSD Vault offers a 1:1 conversion between USDC and eUSD, designed to avoid slippage and price impact.

And the story doesn’t end at conversion.

eUSD can be used in TEL/eUSD Uniswap v4 pools on Polygon, Base, and Ethereum, as well as the eUSD/eMXN pool on Polygon.

Your digital dollar doesn’t stop at the swap. It can move into markets where you can trade or provide liquidity.

New TELx Feature: eUSD Vault Swaps with USDC!

$TEL Telcoin Network Stage 2: One less round trip. 5,434 transactions per second. A validator goes offline. The chain keeps committing.

Picture two validators: one in London, the other in Seoul.

Thousands of miles apart, they must exchange messages to reach agreement on the blockchain. Every extra round trip adds time.

Stage 2 targeted one of those delays.

Previously, a vote request required an extra round trip to negotiate the communication protocol before the request could be sent.

The update changed that. The vote request now goes out with the protocol proposal, rather than waiting for a confirmation round trip first.

One less round trip before the vote request goes out.

In the initial latency re-check, the time from a validator’s own proposal to reaching its own quorum fell by roughly half:

London: 560 → 286 milliseconds.

Seoul: 264 → 138 milliseconds.

The Netherlands: 582 → 296 milliseconds.

The idle consensus round fell from 530 to 313 milliseconds.

Next came the 40-minute stress test. After the latency re-check, the minimum header delay was adjusted from 250 to 350 milliseconds to accommodate the slowest validator’s measured timing.

Ten validators. Ten regions: Los Angeles, Montréal, London, the Netherlands, Mumbai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Seoul and Sydney.

5,433.9 transactions per second average chain throughput, compared with 3,890 in the previous run — approximately 40% higher.

6,909.7 transactions per second during the best 60-second window.

2.44 seconds median time for a transaction to land, down from 3.38 seconds.

The generators submitted 14.36 million transactions. 99.7% landed.

Then came the outage test.

https://benchmark.telcoin.network/runs/r20261007-0316/

$TEL A payment is not finished when it is sent. It is finished when it has been received.

That is the standard a network has to meet if it is going to carry Digital Cash.

The latest benchmark sustained about 5,400 transactions a second across 10 global validators: Los Angeles, Montréal, London, the Netherlands, Mumbai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Seoul, and Sydney. A mobile operator can run one validator.

Telcoin Network’s first block is being prepared, the Genesis block. The GSMA mobile network operator validators are being tested.

Speed is a feature. Settlement is a promise. The number is not the point. The number tells us the point can be carried.
