Thanks to everyone who attended and blessed our LikeCoin v3 launch party on Monday, the live demo was a success. For us, who were still scrambling to make changes just fifteen minutes before the party, it was a huge relief.

For those who couldn’t attend, you can watch the YouTube recording, which includes a live demonstration of the upgrade. Advanced users can find all relevant LikeCoin v3 links on the official website, like.co.

At the risk of repeating ourselves: LikeCoin v3 is officially launched, and the upgrade program has been open since Monday. Users must upgrade their LikeCoin by February 2, 2026. Starting February 3, 2026, users will no longer be able to upgrade, and v2 tokens will lose all value.

The following is the upgrade tutorial.

If your LikeCoin is currently staked with a validator, please unstake it first.

• For users managing their accounts with Keplr, please visit wallet.keplr.app, log in to the corresponding account, and unstake all your staked LikeCoin.

• For users who log in via email, please go to stake.like.co, log in, and unstake all your staked LikeCoin.

• Unstaking requires a 21-day period.

If your LikeCoin is in an Osmosis liquidity pool, please withdraw it all first.

If you are unsure whether you have ever joined a liquidity pool, you can log in to Osmosis and check the following pools to see if your account is participating:

• app.osmosis.zone/pool/553

• app.osmosis.zone/pool/555

• app.osmosis.zone/pool/1242

There is currently still over 10,000 USD in assets across these three pools. Please retrieve your assets as soon as possible to avoid any losses.

If you have LikeCoin stored on Osmosis, or if you just withdrew assets from a liquidity pool in the previous step, please use Keplr’s IBC function to move the assets back to the LikeCoin chain. If you are unfamiliar with this process, please refer to this tutorial.

Once you have completed the above steps, or if none of the above three situations apply to you, you can proceed to the next step to upgrade your LikeCoin.

1. Visit the upgrade application. We recommend using a desktop computer and browser.

2. Read the introduction and click “Confirm.”

3. In Step 2, under the v2 section on the left, click “Connect LikeCoin Wallet.”

   • Users who originally managed their LikeCoin v2 account with Keplr, please select Keplr to log in.

   • Otherwise, please select the Email/Social option.

4. Under the v3 section on the right, click “Connect LikeCoin Wallet.”

   • For general users, logging in with Email is recommended.

   • Users familiar with Ethereum can choose to log in with a wallet like MetaMask, Rabby, etc.

5. In Step 3, sign and confirm to transfer all LikeCoin from your original wallet to the upgrade program.

6. Watch the progress bar in Step 4. Under normal circumstances, it should complete within one minute.

1. If you encounter any special issues, please use the chat bubble in the bottom-right corner to contact us, and we will reply as soon as possible.

2. Click the “Deposit” button in Step 5 to log in to the LikeCoin dApp, which is 3ook.com. On your account page, deposit the LikeCoin you just upgraded to join the 90-day upgrade event and share the 10,000,000 LIKE incentive pool with the community.

At this point, the upgrade is complete, but the applications are just getting started.

We’ll wait for everyone to finish upgrading, and then we’ll be back to introduce the various features of LikeCoin v3 and how it achieves decentralized publishing.

p.s. Lately, things have been piling up—everything everywhere all at once. It’s been overwhelming. I was certain that my tradition of sending out the newsletter the night before publication was going to be broken. In the end, I managed to barely keep it alive with this short upgrade tutorial. If there are any mistakes or omissions, please don’t be polite—leave a comment and let me know.
