# The Letter

**Dear InterLink Community,**

One year has passed very quickly, and this is a good moment for us to reflect on what we have achieved and to share the direction for the next five years of InterLink.

On behalf of the InterLink Foundation, I, KV, as the Chairman of the InterLink Foundation, would like to reflect on the past year and outline the upcoming vision and direction of the Foundation for the InterLink ecosystem.

Over the past year, we have built a strong foundation for the future of InterLink. Some of the key achievements include:

* Becoming one of the leading mobile mining projects in the world, with more than 7 million users.
* Receiving support and collaboration from major organizations and companies such as Google for Startups, the New York Stock Exchange, NIST, AWS, and others.
* Building a solid technical infrastructure, including the Human Node system handling billions of requests each month, the InterLink ID system, and the ITLX DeFi ecosystem.
* Establishing one of the largest ambassador networks in the world, with more than 7,000 ambassadors globally.<br>

Today, I would like to introduce the InterLink Foundation (IF), a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and expanding the InterLink ecosystem. Operating as an independent entity with its own executive team, IF is responsible for guiding long-term strategy and ensuring the effectiveness of ecosystem initiatives. Over the next five years, the Foundation will focus on several major objectives:

* Empowering one billion people worldwide to easily own digital assets and participate in the decentralized economy.
* Transforming InterLink into a leading ecosystem for global payments and the on-chain tokenization of businesses, enabling tens of thousands of companies to participate in payment infrastructure and capital formation on the platform.
* Positioning the InterLink Token to solve one of the fundamental challenges in digital currency: functioning simultaneously as both a payment medium and a store of value, something that has rarely been achieved before.
* Integrating AI across the ecosystem to streamline operations and improve efficiency across the entire InterLink network, including core developers of the InterLink Foundation, InterLink Labs, ITLX, application developers building on InterLink, as well as operational teams and ambassadors.<br>

The journey ahead is ambitious, but the foundation we have built together over the past year gives us strong confidence in the road ahead.

Together, we will build the next era of the decentralized economy.
