Telos Manifesto Unveiled

In November, we unveiled the Telos Manifesto, authored by our CEO, John Lilic. This vision sets the stage for Telos as a community-owned Web3 Venture Production Studio, dedicated to empowering its members with true digital sovereignty.

Built on Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) and backed by nearly 400 million uninterrupted blocks since 2018, Telos is a blockchain designed for everyone—offering accessible governance, shared ownership, and the tools to innovate and thrive together.

At its heart, Telos is about shared ownership and innovation. Powered by the TLOS token, we fuel governance, ecosystem growth, and collective success.
