As part of Firo’s continued evolution, we are completing the transition from Lelantus (V1) to Lelantus Spark, our next-generation privacy protocol.
The redemption window for Lelantus (V1) will close at block 1,223,500 (approximately 20 December 2025). After this point, it will no longer be possible to redeem your Lelantus coins.
Why is this happening?
With the launch of Lelantus Spark, users can no longer create new Lelantus mints but instead create Lelantus Spark Mints. Lelantus Spark offers stronger privacy by hiding the sender, receiver, amounts, and even asset types, while maintaining a more efficient and flexible design. To fully complete this transition, all Lelantus mints need to be redeemed before the redemption window closes.
What this means for users
- If you still hold unredeemed Lelantus mints, please redeem them before block 1,223,500.
- After this block, redemption will no longer be possible, and those funds will become inaccessible.
- Moving forward, all privacy transactions will use the Lelantus Spark protocol, which provides enhanced anonymity and long-term maintainability.
