The update adds a near-term timeline to the project’s public roadmap. Hayes had previously said at Token2049 that the FLOP testnet would run for 90 days. He also said the mainnet is scheduled to go live in the first quarter of 2027. In the same earlier remarks, Hayes said users who take part in testnet mining will be eligible to receive a token airdrop. The latest statement did not add more technical details, but it reaffirmed that the project is moving toward its public testing phase before the planned mainnet launch.
