From Testnet Dreams to #1 Validator: Our Journey Together
As we raise a glass to 2026, we can't help but reflect on what an incredible year 2025 has been for our community. When Qubetics mainnet launched on June 30th, everything changed from promising potential to real-world impact. What started as a group of early believers has grown into a 700+ strong community that trusted us to secure their TICS tokens.
The journey hasn't always been smooth. We've watched the price swing from presale excitement through airdrop volatility, but our community held strong. Together, we've staked over 53 million TICS and earned our position as the #1 validator on the network while maintaining 99.9% uptime. Our Telegram community has grown to 600+ members who share insights, ask thoughtful questions, and help newcomers navigate this space.
Behind the scenes, we've been building too. The jblfg.dev platform continues to evolve, CertiK's audit has reached 85% completion with no critical vulnerabilities found, and partnerships with 1inch, SWFT, Blazpay, Analog, and others are bringing real utility to the ecosystem.
Looking ahead to 2026, we're excited about what's coming. BitcoinCAP and dVPN are moving from testnet to mainnet launch, DAO governance will give our community real decision-making power, and the asset tokenization marketplace will open new possibilities. The Chain Abstraction Protocol promises to make cross-chain interactions seamless, while solver node opportunities will let committed community members level up their involvement.
To every delegator who chose to stake with STRONGHOLD, every community member who contributed to discussions, and everyone who held through the volatility - thank you. You made this possible, and this is just the beginning of what we'll build together.
Here's to 2026 and the continued growth of our STRONGHOLD. Join us in our Telegram community and let's make the new year even stronger.

What is validator uptime and why does it matter for TICS staking?
Validator uptime measures how consistently a node stays online validating blocks. Low uptime risks jailing (1% slashing penalty) and stops reward generation. JBs LFG STRONGHOLD maintains 99.9%+ uptime, meaning minimal risk of downtime penalties for delegators.
How are Qubetics validator commissions calculated?
Validators set commission rates between 5% and 100% of delegator rewards. If your validator earns 1,000 TICS in rewards with 5% commission, they keep 50 TICS and distribute 950 TICS proportionally to delegators based on stake size. JBs LFG STRONGHOLD charges 5% permanently.
How do I stake TICS tokens with JBs LFG STRONGHOLD?
Visit jblfg.dev and connect your wallet (MetaMask, Keplr, Leap, or Cosmostation). Select JBs LFG STRONGHOLD from the validator list, enter your stake amount (minimum 1 TICS), and confirm the transaction. You'll start earning rewards immediately through our integrated staking platform.
What APY can I earn staking TICS with Qubetics validators?
Qubetics offers up to 30% APY on staked TICS, with rewards accumulating continuously. Actual returns depend on network participation and your validator's commission rate. JBs LFG STRONGHOLD charges just 5% commission (permanently fixed) while delivering 99.9%+ uptime.
How long does it take to unstake TICS tokens?
Qubetics has a 14-day unbonding period. During this time, your tokens don't earn rewards and can't be transferred. At jblfg.dev, we offer a cancel unbonding feature not available on the official dashboard, giving you flexibility if you change your mind.
