First things first — a quick apology. We know many of you rely on our Townhall recordings to stay up to speed, especially if you’re in different time zones or couldn’t make it live.
Unfortunately, due to a technical glitch, Townhall #17 didn’t get recorded.
But don’t worry, we’ve rebuilt the full rundown for you right here.
TL;DR — Townhall #17 in One Glance
- 18,000+ active Dabba connections live across India
- Demand already in motion to scale toward 50,000 more
- 300+ new LCO interest captured from the SCAT India activation
- TGE planned for December, with GLP (Genesis Liquidity Program) opening one week prior
- Vault Pass – a gamified way to lock $DBT early & earn rewards
- Hotspot owners will get early access via the Test Crew
- New Dabba Microsite featuring details of the Vault Passes launches on October 24th
- This is the final sprint before we go fully on-chain
What Went Down | Full Breakdown
If you missed the live session — don’t worry. Here’s the full download of everything that unfolded (minus the technical glitch that ate the recording 👀).
The State of the Network — “Guys… it’s happening.”
The Townhall kicked off with the core question: How fast is the Dabba Network actually growing?
The team didn’t just answer — they dropped numbers:
- 18,000+ active broadband connections now running on Dabba-powered hotspots
- 50,000 more inbound connection requests already lined up
- 300+ new LCO partners knocking on the door after last week’s SCAT India activation
- And the best part? People are now asking Dabba to come to their area — unprompted.
This wasn’t presented as vanity metrics. The team made it clear:
“Decentralized broadband isn’t a concept anymore. It’s real. It’s running households, businesses, and entire neighborhoods.”
And the message was loud and clear: The more we deploy now, the stronger the flywheel when rewards go on-chain.
Also here’s a BTS of Dabba’s 3-Event Ciruit played live during the Townhall:
Path to TGE – “The countdown is real.”
The second half of the Townhall was pure alpha.
TGE is officially locked for December.
The Genesis Liquidity Program (GLP) opens one week before that.
But that’s not all. The rollout plan was laid out like a mission timeline:
| Date / Phase | What’s Coming |
| Oct 24 | New Microsite launch, featuring details of Vault Pass — fresh entry point for the next wave of users |
| Pre-TGE Window | Vault Pass Launch → a gamified experience where you can:→ Lock $DBT at vault price→ Skip vesting→ Earn exclusive rewards |
| Priority Access | Hotspot Owners get in first via the Test Crew — early testers before it opens to the public |
If you’re a Hotspot Owner and didn’t raise your hand… now’s the time. Just ping the team in #dabbawala-chat on Discord.
The Road Ahead
The closing message from the team felt less like an update and more like a rally call.
“People are already using Dabba every day without knowing it’s Web3. That’s exactly how DePIN wins.”
Bandwidth is rising. Deployments are scaling. Users are joining, not because they’re speculating, but because they need the internet.
Now comes the flip: December is when on-ground distribution connects to on-chain value.
This is the moment it all converges.
Final Word
If you were waiting for the recording — we’re genuinely sorry this one didn’t get captured. But trust us, you’ll want to be there live for the next one.
Stay close. Stay active. Stay loud.
We’re building this with you — not just for you.
