Raising awareness on UK debt interest, building tools and taking action in Berlin, Logos stack runs DOOM, Dweb and Dark Prague on the horizon. We round up the latest developments from across the Logos movement.

Raising awareness about the UK’s mounting debt interest

In June, Logos launched a new campaign to raise awareness of the scale of the UK’s interest payments on debt and how they’re hindering efficient governance.

In 2026, the UK government is set to spend £114 billion on interest on debt alone. That money pays for nothing new. It doesn’t build homes, fund hospitals, improve schools, repair roads, or even reduce the national debt. It’s the cost of servicing decisions already made, passed on to people who had no say in them.

This is a social problem as well as a fiscal one. As in almost all countries worldwide, spending on debt interest rather than core public priorities is causing the UK to lose the ability to invest in its own future.

Check out the campaign homepage for more information.

If you’re local, join Logos Circle / London to learn how to support the campaign.

Supporting internet freedom with Internet Archive and Funding the Commons  

In June, we concluded a campaign led by Tor and Funding the Commons. The goal was to support projects building tools and protocols to defend internet freedom, including SecureDrop, OnionShare, OONI, Onion Browser, and others. 

As part of our support, Logos contributed to a matched funding pool alongside Cake Wallet, Zcash Community Grants, and Octant. Funding was allocated using a quadratic mechanism, ensuring that projects with the broadest community support received the most. 

Although the campaign has officially ended, you can still make donations via BTC, ETH, ZEC, XMR, and GLM here.

Can Logos run DOOM?

We all know that the ultimate test of a hardware or software stack is “Can it run DOOM?”

Well, thanks to the efforts of cyber monk Rahul, we can proudly declare that the Logos stack can indeed run DOOM (or more accurately, the free and open-source version of the game, FREEDOOM).

This is DOOM running inside Basecamp as a real, installable .lgx module that shows up as a tab in the sidebar. It uses doomgeneric, derived from id Software’s original open-source DOOM code, together with FreeDOOM’s fully free game assets, so no proprietary DOOM data is used. 

Check the repo and run the DOOM module on your own Logos Basecamp instance now. If you haven’t already started experimenting with Basecamp, download and run it here. 

Build something interesting for Basecamp, let us know, and we’ll feature you in the next monthly update. 

IRL / Upcoming

DWeb Camp

Logos will host a series of pop-up activations at this year’s DWeb Camp in Alte Hölle, Germany. The event runs from 8 to 12 July, and seeks to unite those building technologies to support a decentralised internet.

Across four days, a series of pop-up Logos LANs hosted around the camp will guide attendees as they install Logos Basecamp and explore the tech stack. Meanwhile, we’ll also host Circles to spread the word about the initiative and encourage more people to start taking action on issues that matter to their local communities. Logos activists and engineers will also lead various sessions as part of the scheduled programming. 

Learn more about Logos’ involvement and get tickets to DWeb now.

Dark Prague

Logos returns to Dark Prague this autumn. The event brings together those building systems to defend human freedoms from 2 to 4 October 2026 in the Czech Republic's capital. 

Schedule details, including our involvement, are still being worked out. However, we have an allocation of discounted tickets. Get yours now with 20% off face value. 

IRL / June

Logos LAN and Circle / Berlin

Logos hosted two Logos LAN / Berlin events on 15 to 16 June during Berlin Blockchain Week. The events provided opportunities to share Logos technologies with builders and others interested in decentralised infrastructure.

The first, a hands-on outdoor developer session on running and deploying apps on the Logos stack, took place on 15 June at Park an der Spree. Participants ran nodes, built on Logos Blockchain, tested Logos Messaging and Storage, fed back to us what worked, and discussed future stack development.

The second LAN was held the next day at Dappcon, where we introduced the stack to a broader developer audience, continued conversations about private-by-default infrastructure, and demonstrated how Logos modules can work together to power truly decentralised applications.

Alongside Berlin Blockchain Week, we also hosted a pop-up edition of Logos Circle / Berlin, bringing people together for a community cleanup, food, and conversation on local coordination, community building, and the wider parallel society movement. Check the field note for more information.

Follow Logos on socials to be the first to know about future Logos LAN events and pop-up Logos Circles forming near you.

Logos Circles / June Highlights

Logos Circles are local, open gatherings built around action and spread worldwide. People meet, identify real problems, and take on grassroots initiatives to solve them. 

In June, Circles formed in:

/ London, / Ilorin, / Awka, / Vizag, / Kano, / Abuja, / Porto, / Lisbon, / Zanzibar, / Benin, / Berlin, / Kampala, / Ifite, / Ruse, / Ebonyi, / Abeokuta, / Khartoum, / Los Angeles, / Uyo, / Buenos Aires, / Aba, / Ibadan, / Katsina, / Port Harcourt, / Wakuri, / Kaduna, / London

Check the Logos Forum for individual progress updates on each Circle’s winnable issues.

Logos Circles videos drop

To highlight the transformative work being done in Circles worldwide, we’ve produced a short video series. Honing in on the efforts of Lisbon, LA, and London, the initiative seeks to encourage others to take action in their community without waiting for permission.

Logos Circle / Lisbon has been responding to the city’s housing crisis by inviting people to come together and share stories, support one another, and build collective solutions to problems they face. Their efforts have already helped secure a community centre, creating a shared space for neighbours to organise, connect, and strengthen local resilience.

Logos Circle / Los Angeles is developing a private whistleblowing app to help musicians, artists, actors, and other entertainment workers report exploitation without putting themselves or their careers at unnecessary risk. By creating safer channels for people to speak up and protect one another, the Circle is working to challenge the culture of silence that has long shaped parts of the entertainment industry.

Logos Circle / London is contributing to policy discussions on the UK’s £114 billion in annual interest payments, exploring how public money is allocated and what this means for citizens. The Circle is also examining the impact of government initiatives such as digital IDs and chat control, with a focus on protecting civil liberties and strengthening public oversight.

Logos Circles / July

Logos Circles are already planned in the cities below in July:

Due to the large number of Circles happening towards the end of June, only a few Circles have a fixed date for their July edition. Check the Logos events calendar or the Circles discussion channel later in the month to discover upcoming Circles in your area. 

If there isn’t already a Circle near you, contact us and start one.

Tech stack highlights

The biggest highlight from the technology stack in June was the launch of Testnet v0.2, the most significant release of the unified stack so far. 

For the first time, a single node can run blockchain, messaging, and storage together through one interface, with the Logos Blockchain now running as a Logos Core module and the Blend Network now active, marking a major step towards deploying Private Proof-of-Stake.

Across the rest of the stack, the teams turned extensive protocol research into working infrastructure: chat over mixnet was demonstrated end-to-end over a live mixnet fleet, the NAT traversal package was completed, and RLN proof times were cut to 15 milliseconds – a thirteenfold improvement.

June was also a strong month for research and protocol hardening, with the EmPoWering incentivisation proposal approved, continued progress on post-quantum readiness, and various security fixes and improvements implemented ahead of the v0.2 release.

For a full recap of technical developments, stay tuned for the June Logos stack monthly update.
