Overview

The Viction network is a high-performance, layer-1 blockchain platform designed to support decentralized applications, digital assets, and smart contracts with a focus on zero-gas fees, scalability, and developer-friendly infrastructure. Originally launched as TomoChain, Viction has evolved into a comprehensive ecosystem that empowers builders and users through its innovative zero-gas fee environment and robust technical foundation. The network uses a Proof-of-Stake Voting (PoSV) consensus mechanism, enabling fast and energy-efficient transaction processing while maintaining decentralization and security. With its "Own What Matters" narrative, Viction is building an ownership economy through tokenization, making digital ownership accessible to all as it fosters a more inclusive and empowering Web3 ecosystem.

In Q3 2025, Viction achieved significant milestones that solidified its position as a leading blockchain. The successful rollout of Atlas Hard Fork v2.5.0 marked a major infrastructure upgrade, making the network leaner, faster, and more scalable by retiring outdated components and optimizing the VRC25 token standard. The community-driven Retrodrop Season 2 "Own the Glory" distributed 2.5M VIC through transparent governance, reflecting Viction's commitment to rewarding contributors and fostering grassroots growth. The Viction Vanguard Ambassador Program 3.0 expanded to 150+ ambassadors across 10+ countries, demonstrating global community reach and operational strength. Additionally, Viction's presence at Conviction 2025 showcased their vision of "Build with conviction. Scale with vision," highlighting interactive demos, community initiatives, and strategic partnerships that are driving ecosystem expansion.

Viction's growing ecosystem diversity was evident through key integrations and launches. Coin98's $BOBA token launch as the inaugural onchain loyalty points system successfully distributed 17M+ points to 17K+ users, while Pop Launch debuted as Viction's first MemePad. The network's first NFT music collection with Pjpo attracted 70K+ mints and 10K+ weekly active wallets, showcasing some good traction. Strategic partnerships with LayerZero for cross-chain interoperability, SafePal for native wallet support, and various DeFi protocols like RabbitSwap demonstrate Viction's comprehensive approach to ecosystem development.

Key Developments: Q3 2025

• Viction successfully rolled out Atlas Hard Fork v2.5.0, a major infrastructure upgrade designed to make the network leaner, faster, and more scalable. The upgrade retired the outdated TomoX module for improved performance and lower storage requirements, upgraded the VRC25 token standard with greater flexibility including lower minimum deposit requirements and optimized gas sponsorship, and reduced block gas limits for smoother network performance. Atlas focuses on streamlining the network to help builders create better products while maintaining speed, flexibility, and scalability.
• Viction launched Retrodrop Season 2 "Own the Glory" with a total allocation of 2.5M VIC distributed through community-led voting. The community selected the "Community-Led Growth" model focusing on empowering grassroots contributions, recognizing cultural and educational impact, and prioritizing engagement over short-term metrics. The distribution included 70% to Core Projects (fully onchain, tokenized projects), 21% to Core Communities (Viction-native communities), and 9% to Core User Contributors. All funds are restricted to staking or node operation only through official platforms (VicMaster, VicPool, deFusion) to ensure decentralization and validator health.
• Viction introduced the new narrative "Own What Matters" emphasizing digital ownership accessibility and reinforcing their mission to make digital ownership accessible to all as they build a more inclusive and empowering Web3.

The network recorded over 39K new wallets (2.2X the 2025 YTD average), while Total Value Locked (TVL) reached nearly $12 million, a 23% increase from June and a year-to-date high. This growth was driven by stronger activity across NFTs, DeFi, and GameFi sectors, Coin98 Super Wallet onboarding, and traction from Eternals and Efihub projects.
• Viction launched the Viction Vanguard Ambassador Program 3.0, scaling to 150+ ambassadors across 10+ countries. The program features missions from Day 1, streamlined onboarding flow, better creator support, and a tiered badge system where Badge Multipliers boost rewards in bounty campaigns and exclusive opportunities.
