The Moment of Transition
The third quarter of 2025 was a definitive period for Impossible Cloud Network. Marked by the successful Mainnet launch and over $1.6B in trading volume across exchanges since launch, ICN transitioned from a visionary concept to a live, operational network. This launch provided immediate, tangible proof that a decentralized cloud can not only exist but is already scaling. The Mainnet launch was the essential first step toward providing the foundational layer for the next-gen internet and powering the AI era.
ICN’s First 30 Days
ICN's Mainnet launch was not just hype but real infrastructure. In just 30 days. ICN shipped a working decentralized cloud protocol, already powering real use cases across DeFi, enterprise infra, and the broader Web3 ecosystem.
ICN is one of the first Web3 infrastructure projects to launch with ongoing $7M ARR, 1000+ enterprise customers, and live use cases.This milestone proved that our network can is ready to power the future of the internet
Section 2: Numbers & Growth
From protocol activity to community engagement, the momentum has been tangible. These metrics reflect infrastructure being adopted, tokens being used to secure the network, and a decentralized protocol delivering performance at scale.
Console Metrics
- 31,000+ ICN Links staked
- 71.16M $ICNT in Total Value Locked (TVL).
Network Growth
-127 ScalerNodes deployed
- 6 regions (EU and US)
- 91.54PB Network Capacity
These figures confirm that ICN isn’t just live, it’s actively securing its place as a foundational layer.
Powering Real Infra & Ecosystem Integrations
The quarter saw ICN immediately focus on injecting resources into the ecosystem, ensuring the utility of our network from day one.
ICN x Aethir: HyperBuild Grants In partnership with Aethir, we launched the HyperBuild Grants, a program dedicated to fueling innovation for builders.
We committed to giving away 10TB of decentralized cloud and $10K in GPU compute to five standout projects, representing a $20,000 package for the ecosystem.

ICN x Base Cloud Grants: Less than three weeks after launch, ICN rolled out its first ecosystem initiative: the ICN x Base Cloud Grants. In partnership with Base, we awarded 50TB of decentralized cloud to five standout projects, including Tiamonds, Paysats, Sandworm, Openbands, and Tanbii, each building real-world applications in Web3.
Deepening Ecosystem Integrations: Each partnership brings more utility and composability to the ICN protocol:
Aerodrome: Boosts $ICNT accessibility and deepens liquidity through next-gen AMM mechanics.
GLIF: As a key DeFi integration, it enabled liquid staking for $ICNT (stICNT), making participation more accessible.
Cygnus: Brings millions of Web2 users closer to decentralized infrastructure, making real-world UX meet scalable DePIN backends.
Symbiotic: This shared security protocol unlocks cross-protocol staking economies, enabling new layers of composability.
Ongoing Improvements and What’s Next
Commitment to Trust and Security
To fully uphold our commitment to security and Digital Sovereignty, we launched the Immunefi Bug Bounty Program. With a maximum bounty of $25,000 USD for critical smart contract vulnerabilities, this program invites the Web3 security community to battle-test our protocol and reinforce its integrity.
Continuous Improvement & Roadmap
We have initiated a continuous program of performance upgrades and UX improvements to make staking, deploying, and building on ICN smoother than ever. With Mainnet live, we're just getting started—scale is next.
New hardware classes and node types are joining the network, unlocking more flexibility and use cases.
We're integrating deeper with DeFi, AI, and core Web3 infrastructure protocols to further expand our ecosystem.
Here’s to even more expansion and growth in Q4.
