The Online+ Bulletin: December 15 – 21, 2025

Welcome to this week’s Online+ Bulletin, where we track new features, performance updates, and standout moments from the decentralized world of Online+, brought to you by ION’s Product Lead, Yuliia.


🌐 Tổng quan

This past week marked a major milestone for Online+ and the wider ION ecosystem. The ICE → ION migration successfully went live, bringing a long chapter to a close and opening a new one. With Swaps now active inside Online+, the focus shifted from launch preparation to real-world usage — supporting users through the transition, validating flows at scale, and ensuring the foundations are solid as activity moves fully on-chain.

Alongside the migration, the team continued refining the core experience across the app. Updates and fixes landed across Wallet, Feed, Chat, Profile, and Security, addressing swap behavior, balance handling, editor reliability, and UI consistency. These changes are deliberately practical in nature, aimed at reducing friction and improving stability as more users engage with the product day to day in a post-migration environment.

Looking ahead, attention is now firmly on what comes next. Tokenized Communities — one of the most ambitious features built so far — continued to take shape this week, alongside ongoing work on PUMPit and broader monetization mechanics. At the same time, conversations with the community continued beyond the product itself, including an AMA with Cointelegraph that offered space to reflect on the journey so far and the direction ahead. 

The focus this past week was on closing one chapter, validating what’s live, and continuing to build what comes next — even as the year winds down and the holiday season begins.

💬 Nhận định của Yuliia

Last week marked the successful launch of the ICE → ION migration. It’s a big moment and a genuinely emotional one. ICE has been part of this journey for a long time, and while it’s time to move forward, it will always hold a special place in our story. So, farewell ICE, and welcome ION!

There wasn’t much time to pause and take it in, though. The team stayed in full execution mode, working days and nights to wrap up Tokenized Communities and PUMPit. This is the next major milestone, and it’s where everyone’s focus is right now. The pace is super intense, but the direction is equally clear. We’re pushing forward.


🎄 Extra, Extra, Read All About It! 

If you missed it — or you’re looking for something good to watch over the holidays — Iulian joined Gareth Jenkinson, Cointelegraph’s Managing Editor, for a relaxed and wide-ranging AMA on December 17, with over 13,000 people tuning in live.

They touched on everything from Iulian’s early crypto days to what we’re building with Online+, the ICE → ION migration, Tokenized Communities, and PUMPit — and why usability, creators, and real adoption matter so much to us. 

The discussion was lively, with questions coming in faster than we could cover them all, so if you’re curious about where ION is headed, this one makes for easy holiday watching.

The focus this week remains firmly on Tokenized Communities. It’s one of the most complex features we’ve worked on so far, with dependencies across Wallet, Feed, Profile, and core infrastructure — which means getting it right takes time, care, and a lot of cross-team coordination. The goal is to make sure everything works seamlessly once it’s in users’ hands.

Even with the holidays here, the work continues. There’s still plenty to do before we’re ready to ship, so it’s very much a case of “no rest for the wicked”. At the same time, we want to wish everyone in the community a happy and restful holiday season, and to thank you for sticking with us through this big and demanding stretch as we close out the year.
