The LikeCoin v3 upgrade, first proposed early last year, is now ready after 18 months of building community consensus and technical development. It is set to officially launch next Monday, November 3, 2025.
To celebrate and provide explanations, we will host a LikeCoin v3 Launch Party in sync with our November community meeting. The Party will primarily be in Mandarin.
Date: Monday, November 3, 2025
Time: 18:30 (GMT+8)

Immediately after the launch party, the token migration program will be available, allowing Likers to upgrade their LikeCoin v2 tokens to the new v3 version.
The migration program will be open for 90 days, from November 3, 2025, until early morning (GMT+8) on February 3, 2026.
Important: Starting February 3, 2026, users will no longer be able to migrate v2 tokens. Please be sure to take action within this 90-day window.
Users who have previously created or purchased Writing NFTs or NFT books should also upgrade them to v3 before February 2, 2026. The relevant upgrade program for these has been available since June.
Once the migration is complete, Likers can use v3’s two core functions: Deposit (存倉) and Stake (質押).
Similar to v2, by locking LikeCoin, you can earn rewards while simultaneously participating in voting on community proposals.
Migration Bonus: To encourage users to upgrade early, the community has approved a 10,000,000 LIKE reward pool to be distributed over the 90 days starting November 3. As long as you upgrade your LikeCoin and deposit it, you can share these rewards proportionally. The earlier you upgrade, the earlier you start earning rewards.
Governance Power: Depositing LikeCoin will also grant you veLIKE tokens at a 1:1 ratio. This represents your voting power in the LikeCoin DAO, used for voting on community proposals.
The LikeCoin v3 protocol introduces a unique “decentralized curation” feature, allowing Likers to support works while sharing in the book’s revenue. This is achieved by Likers staking LikeCoin to the books they support, enabling community-driven book selection.
Staking as Endorsement: Unlike traditional bookstores, book curation on 3ook.com is community-led. A book’s ranking in categories and on charts is determined by the total LikeCoin staked to it. In other words, staking determines visibility, allowing the books and authors you love to be seen by more people.
Become a Stakeholder: Staking also upgrades readers into stakeholders. For every book sale on 3ook.com, 5% of the sales revenue will be proportionally distributed to the Likers who have staked on that specific book.
Although LikeCoin v3’s features are enhanced, it is simpler to operate than before. If you don’t believe it, please join the November 3rd launch party to witness it. We will demonstrate the upgrade, deposit, and stake processes, and will publish detailed tutorials afterward.
Before then, if you’re on pins and needles like me, feel free to get these preparations done first:
Register on 3ook.com.
Upgrade your v2 NFT books and Writing NFTs.
Mark the November 3rd launch party on your calendar.
Finally, the day is almost here. Somehow, it feels almost unreal.
POLL: The LikeCoin v3 feature I’m most looking forward to is…
Staking as endorsement: support works and become a stakeholder
Depositing & voting: earn rewards and have a voice
Returning to Ethereum, interoperability with various dApps
I’m not looking forward to it 🤷♂️
None of the above, I’ll tell you in the comments
p.s. I quietly started a podcast a while ago called “Alice 與 Bob 談 Crypto” (Alice and Bob Talk Crypto). It’s experimental for now (=”just for fun”) and only in Mandarin, so I’ve never promoted it, and almost no one knows it exists. Of course, for an introvert (“i-person”) who doesn’t even use Instagram, maybe not many people would know even if I did promote it hard. But since I’ve already produced ten episodes, it must be time to invite everyone to listen: available on RSS, Spotify, and Apple Podcast.
