From Taylor:

Regretfully I need to inform the community of a technical development that hard stops vForge at this time.

The devs have been working with a framework and were comfortable with progress but got to a point where it wasn't possible to leverage the framework for multi-tenant support. This means that the framework, like most others available, only supports a single user for a single install. While we were optimistic and moving forward, this is unfortunately a showstopper for the original agreed scope for vForge.

We currently don't have a short-term solution to solving this despite best efforts during the past 24 hours after the risk arose. A proper solution involves changing the fundamentals of the framework we're using and the estimated timeframe is loosely 4-6 months for refactoring due to the ripple effects and efforts needed. This estimate would be more concretely able to be discerned after they get in and get working on the refactor.

Needless to say this effort and timeframe is well out of scope and cannot be accommodated.
At this time we have closed the presale and I have recommended the council conduct a refund to those that participated via the multisig.

Sorry for the inconvenience to everyone. Thank you for those that supported this endeavor. 🙏

---

On a better end:
- For Hyperlane, everything is still on track. We are wrapping up work on dynamic energy and will be fully shifting focus to the remaining tasks soon. No changes to the timeline.
- For the vNode bug with WiFi, we are currently conducting an investigation. So far, we haven’t identified a specific issue at the software level, but we are continuing to analyze potential causes.

Work Continues…

We had originally targeted the Mainnet update for today.

However, due to the extensive testing required, particularly how this impacts validators, we will remain in the testing phase, applying extra diligence.

While there are no critical issues, we are not yet comfortable to proceed with the deployment.

Over the course of this week, we will continue working through test cases to ensure this update is as seamless as possible.

Thank you for your understanding.

Partner Update from Chad:

The Collaborative Network

The layer-1 Collaborative Network is a fully-centralized and permissioned ledger system designed for regulated enterprise. It leverages Vitreus’ interoperable layer-0 to provide a scalable and secure platform tailored for enterprise blockchain solutions.

The Collaborative Network enables the management of multiple interoperable blockchains (iQFAMI):
1. iQ paraChain (COMPLiQ)
2. Finance paraChain (Collaborative Agents)
3. Assets paraChain (Digital Asset Securities)
4. Markets paraChain (Navitron ATS)
5. Identity paraChain (Pending Announcement)

The Collaborative Network empowers businesses to maintain full control over their data and operations while benefiting from the connectivity and shared infrastructure of a decentralized layer-0. This architecture ensures enterprises can implement tailored blockchain solutions that meet their unique requirements without compromising on interoperability or security.

Central to the Collaborative Network’s functionality is its dual-asset model, utilizing VNRG and VTRS to optimize transactions and incentivize governance participation on the layer-0. VNRG powers network operations, acting as a resource allocation mechanism for validating transactions and executing smart contracts across interconnected blockchains. Meanwhile, VTRS serves as the ecosystem’s layer-0 governance participation and staking asset, aligning the interests of network participants and facilitating decision-making processes that are aligned with the business objectives of Collaborative Network.

Together, these assets create a dynamic environment that balances utility, security, and governance, positioning the Collaborative Network as the ideal Layer 1 solution for enterprises looking to adopt blockchain technology at scale.

The future of blockchain is enterprise. 🫡

Plan for Mainnet Update and vApp Release

1) Mainnet Update with Dynamic Energy ✅
- Enable dynamic energy on the mainnet (update runtime).
- Remove static override values for burned energy (energyBurnOverride), sold energy (energySaleOverride), total stake (totalStakeOverride), and other related variables.
- For the energy broker, remove static override value for capacity (energyCapacityOverride)

2) Smoke Testing the vApp Version with Mainnet
- Ensure everything is properly updated and working as intended with new metadata

3) vApp Version Release
- release the pre-approved builds

After the mainnet update, we wait for users to sell their energy (LNRG) at approximately ±50% of the broker’s capacity.

Once this condition is met, we will set the dynamicEnergy.multiplierCoefficients, enabling dynamic Warehouse capacity multiplier (now it is static 1.0).

Mainnet Update will commence on the heels of this announcement.

🚀 Update: vApp Version 4.0.4 is Live! 🚀
We’ve rolled out vApp 4.0.4, bringing some key updates and optimizations to the ecosystem. Update vApp in the App Stores now!

### Here’s what’s new:
## 🏆 Gasless Rewards Claiming
- If you have rewards to claim → No gas required!
- If you don’t have rewards to claim → Gas applies.
- Session (1 hour) Information Added Information

🔄 Dynamic VNRG Adjustments
- Smoothing Factor adjustments have been pushed to Mainnet
- We have accelerated smoothing for faster normalization
- Will revert to planned smoothing after we’ve normalized.
- APR will normalize when the system has finished balancing based on the smoothing factor.

⚡️ VNRG Grants & Minting
- Grants will be issued through SNRG
- No impact on Dynamic VNRG
- Fixed price: 0.9 gVolts = 1 VTRS

📈 APR & gVolts Generation
- Waiting for the current exchange rate to normalize
- More data is needed before adjusting further

⚖️ Smoothing Factor Adjustment
We’ve updated the smoothing factor, meaning exchange rate normalization will now accelerate! Expect to see the real exchange rate in ~4-5 days based on market conditions.

https://t.me/VitreusChain/422
It talks about it more in this announcement.

Some updates:

- Addresses involved in last week's slashing event had the tokens restored as of this morning.

- Devs are still working on the solution for the WiFi bug that is affecting a good amount of nodes.

- Council and CDI had a meeting and agreed on a new governance framework for Vitreus. Council is preparing the proposal with a plan to launch a vote next week.

🚨 Notice: MEXC Delisting

MEXC will delist the $VTRS token from their exchange.

Per their guidelines, Vitreus will be tagged with a warning on June 17 and officially delisted on June 20 for not meeting their volume and/or holding requirements.

While unfortunate, this does not impact the fundamentals of Vitreus or our long-term roadmap. $VTRS remains tradable on other platforms, and our focus remains on building value across the Vitreus ecosystem.

If you have questions, feel free to ask in our questions channel or via DM to our education and moderation leaders.

Update:

The Vitreus Dev Team is working in conjunction with the CDI Tech Team to integrate the COMPLiQ parachain into the Vitreus Relay Chain on Mainnet. This is a big step forward as it gives Vitreus its real first use case and opens it up to a world outside of DeFi. More to come...

Passing along an update here:

The parachain has been approved through a successful referendum and is set to launch automatically in a few days. The development team will remain on standby to ensure a smooth rollout.,

The DevOps team continues to refine the infrastructure supporting the parachain collators and archive nodes, focusing on optimization and cleanup.,

The vApp is slated for an update with a new test build for internal testing, marking the third iteration incorporating user feedback.,

Hyperlane development is progressing steadily.

🚀 COMPLiQ Is Now Live in Production on the iQ Parachain

We’re excited to announce that COMPLiQ has officially transitioned from staging into full production on the iQ Parachain.

This means:

✅ Transactions are now live
✅ gVolts (gas) are actively being consumed
✅ On-chain activity has begun

This is not a test environment. This is production infrastructure.

With this move, COMPLiQ’s AI governance and control plane is now anchoring live activity to the iQ Parachain — enabling:

• Immutable AI audit logging
• Policy-enforced transaction records
• Verifiable activity trails
• Real gas-based usage economics

We’ve moved from simulated execution to real economic throughput.

This milestone marks the beginning of production-grade AI governance operating on-chain — not theory, not roadmap — live infrastructure.

More updates to follow as transaction volume begins to scale and additional modules are activated. 🫡

Hyperlane Bridge Now Live

Vanguards, we are happy to announce that the Hyperlane Bridge is now ready for use!

The bridge provides a new way to transfer assets across supported networks for the Vitreus ecosystem.

Bridge: bridge.vtrs.io

As always, double-check your destination network and transaction details before confirming a transfer.

Thank you to everyone who helped bring this infrastructure online.
