The Telcoin Association (@TelcoinTAO) presented to the Telecom Council of Silicon Valley last week, according to a post by Telcoin on X. The project is preparing to launch the Telcoin Network mainnet, powered by $TEL. Founder Parker Spann and advisor David Palmer discussed three areas: Telcoin Network, its multi-currency stablecoins, and a phone-number-based identity system.

According to its website, the Telecom Council is a membership community of telcos, telecom vendors and investors that has met monthly since 2001 to discover startups. Its members include AT&T, BT, Swisscom and Telefónica, according to Telcoin's post.

Mainnet Timeline Is Now Dated

The presentation comes shortly before the network's planned rollout. According to the same post, Telcoin has scheduled a code freeze for Monday, November 16, a genesis launch on December 2 and a public launch in mid-December. Telcoin first announced the schedule on November 6.

On November 6, Telcoin said the launch was slated for December, with the first set of validators.

What It Means for $TEL

$TEL is central to the network's operation, which Telcoin describes as powered by the token. After genesis, the initial validator set and the pace at which additional carriers join will be the main indicators to watch.

Presenting to a group with deep carrier membership aligns with the project's stated focus on mobile network operators. Telcoin describes its multi-currency stablecoins as designed for cross-border payments and remittances.
