Is Locking & Vesting a TRAP? 😳 There has been concern in the community that locking and vesting might be a trap set by the company. Let’s find out in the video. youtu.be/56XnEEvIQm0?si… @inter_link @kv_interlink @reina_itl

There are only a few hours left until the DAO vote on the $ITL allocation ratio ends, and it looks like option 2 will pass. With this option, the distributed ratio will be 160:1. I'm planning on a 5-years locking and 120-months vesting option. What about you? #Interlink #ITL #ITLG

So, we are finally preparing to enter the very first stage of Mainnet. As I shared half a year ago, InterLink has gradually transformed from a free mining app into a much larger ecosystem. And now, as we continue growing bigger, it also means there will naturally be more different opinions. Some people who own fewer tokens feel uncomfortable seeing others own more. Some people who are already verified complain that they still have not received their tokens yet. Some people who are not verified in Step 2 feel frustrated because they have not reached Step 3 yet. And some people who are still waiting for verification complain that the process is taking too long. Of course, everyone has their own reasons. Even I personally understand those feelings myself. The original principle behind InterLink was actually built somewhat similarly to the model of the United States. (Of course, I am not talking about politics or negative issues related to Iran, Palestine, or North Korea.) There is a quote I really like and would like to share: “We are not one single tribe. We do not share the same bloodline, and no ancestry alone is strong enough to keep us together. But when people choose to live by a shared ideal, no force can rival them. Blood can divide. Ideals can unite complete strangers. A nation built only on blood will always limit itself. A nation built on ideals will have no limits. We were not born to be the same. We chose to stand together. And it is that choice which makes us impossible to defeat. This is proven by the very name of the mighty United States of America.” The reality is that every individual will always have their own personal problems. However, when people are united by one shared ideal, those problems become smaller because everyone chooses to build something bigger together. So what is the ideal behind @inter_link? It is to democratize ownership of digital assets within a payment and real-world asset ecosystem without barriers related to nationality, finance, or knowledge. Even in a powerful country like the United States, there will always be complaints regarding taxes, housing prices, employment, and many other things. @inter_link is no different. There will always be complaints because nobody is perfect. However, what makes the United States remain powerful is its ability to continuously welcome talented people and brilliant scientists to help build the country. @inter_link operates in a very similar way. It does not matter what your background is or where you come from. As long as you are talented enough, you are welcome here. And one day, there will eventually be people who replace me as chairman of @itl_fdn. Those people may be more talented, more energetic, and better than me, but they will still share the same vision of contributing to @itl_fdn. Now, regarding the operational costs of the Foundation. @itl_fdn will operate differently from organizations like the Solana Foundation or Ethereum Foundation. We do not need to sell tokens to pay engineers or researchers. There will not be any Foundation-owned tokens sold on the market during the entire Private Mainnet phase. No OTC sales to treasury partners. No VC sales. Even without selling tokens or relying on app advertisements, InterLink still has enough funding to continue operating for at least the next 5 years. Many people mistakenly believe advertisements generate enough revenue to cover expenses. In reality, the revenue from ads currently does not even cover one-fifth of InterLink’s monthly operating costs because our conversion rate is actually quite low. However, advertisements do serve one very important purpose: filtering bots. Google Adsense is one of the best anti-bot systems in the world. We have been self-funded by the co-founders from the very beginning to ensure stable operations until today. Currently, many people have reported to me that some former ambassadors, after being removed, have started spreading inaccurate information for personal purposes that may potentially harm users. Please be careful with individuals or organizations that continuously mention @Inter_link using vague community narratives because in reality these may simply be methods used to redirect users into risky or potentially fraudulent projects. I will not be responsible for any activity outside of @Inter_link because I have already issued this warning clearly. Now, I would like to answer some common questions so everyone can better understand @inter_link. 1. Is @inter_link a scam project? This is the question I hear the most. A scam project usually starts by asking people to invest money with the intention of taking those funds. Meanwhile, @inter_link is currently completely free, and there has never been any case where users lost money. I am proud to say that @inter_link is almost the only project that does not sell tokens or ask the community to invest in anything. 2. What is the vision of @inter_link? Is it realistic? Initially, @inter_link focused on building a human network. However, as the ecosystem evolved, the vision expanded into building a payment and real-world asset ecosystem centered around people. The execution roadmap and development stages have already been explained very clearly in the @itl_fdn whitepaper. In addition, @itl_fdn is proud to have one of the strongest blockchain engineering and research teams today, with nearly 100 engineers and researchers. This is more than enough to support serious long-term research and development. 3. Are the statements made by @Inter_link real? All information regarding reaching Top 51 AI models globally according to NIST: face.nist.gov/frte/reportcar… Lead investment from Google (search on Crunchbase): crunchbase.com/organization/i… Or being one of the first blockchain companies invited for an interview at the NYSE: youtube.com/watch?v=Z9j79J… Or information regarding treasury partners — all of these already have reposts on X, public interviews, or visible proof. If those companies do not use X, they have either already appeared publicly with us or people will eventually understand once Private Mainnet launches and they begin seeing continuous token buy activity. InterLink is a legal company in the United States, and the Foundation is legally registered in Hong Kong. Any false information can create serious damage. This does not even include the fact that all previous product development and technology updates were publicly shared in great detail from the beginning. 4. Is Verified ITLG intentionally being delayed? I already explained this in my previous post here: x.com/compose/articl… Ensuring compliance and ecosystem security is absolutely necessary for long-term sustainability. The more compliant the ecosystem becomes, the greater the opportunities to work with billion-dollar banking and fintech companies in the future. That is one of the goals of @inter_link. Verification priority is based on multiple metrics and ratios, especially ACS and HCS. The process will become much faster during Private Mainnet when validators begin participating. Because the vision of @inter_link is to democratize digital asset ownership for 1 billion users, I want to make it clear that everyone will eventually have the opportunity to own InterLink tokens. There is no need to worry too much about being left behind. 5. What value will the mined tokens have? My principle is simple: I never talk about price because doing so could be considered manipulation. However, there are several important points: The core team will not own tokens during Private Mainnet Even after Open Mainnet, core team allocations will remain locked for years The Foundation does not need to sell tokens to maintain operations All tokens entering Private Mainnet must pass AML and compliance checks The ecosystem requires ITL for gas fees, validator staking, business tokens, payments, and many other utilities And I do not encourage speculation. The goal of launching the token in the early stages is to develop the ecosystem. 6. What technologies is InterLink building? Besides technologies already publicly mentioned, InterLink is currently focusing on: Quantum-resistant infrastructure at the highest NIST standards A blockchain capable of scaling for payments and real-world assets with extremely low finality delay A transaction-backed digital asset protocol, which is the first protocol in the world allowing businesses to tokenize using native tokens (InterLink Labs is currently filing patents for this technology) Expanding hackathons and attracting developers to build dApps for ecosystem utility Infrastructure for stablecoin payments and eventually InterLink token payments for flights, hotels, SIM cards, and more The fact that we continuously bring in engineers and scientists shows how serious we are about investing in core technology. These are some of the most common questions I receive. If you have more questions, do not hesitate to ask. Thank you everyone very much. Private Mainnet will be one of the most important stages for the ecosystem. I hope everyone truly enjoys this journey together.

Disagree Without Destroying Each Other In every long-term project, there will always be people who join with conviction, contribute deeply, and sometimes later leave with disappointment. ➡️That is normal. Some may share positive experiences. Others may raise concerns, criticism, or even expose things they personally disagree with. ➡️But when it turns into personal attacks, blame games, and ego battles between top people and ambassadors, it crosses the line. The community doesn’t enjoy watching personal fights. It creates negativity, doubt, and division. At the end of the day, personal attacks don’t help anyone. But this has been happening in the community for some time now. ➡️Let’s keep disagreements professional. But as a community, I think we should be careful about one thing: A project should never be judged only by emotions, personal fallout, or one individual’s experience, whether positive or negative. ➡️The better question is: 🟠Does the project still have a roadmap? 🟠Is development continuing? 🟠Are products/utilities being built? 🟠Is there progress or not? Healthy criticism is important. Tough questions are important. ➡️But blind trust and blind hate — both can be dangerous. At the end of the day, every person should research, observe, ask hard questions, and make decisions based on logic rather than emotions. ➡️Time eventually reveals the truth about every project. @kv_interlink @inter_link @scott_itlg @reina_itl @itlx_defi

🔥RWA - Connecting Real Assets and Accessing Trillions of Dollars in Liquidity. In addition to designing a cross-border payment system, Interlink is actively implementing technological models linked to the tokenization of real assets (RWA). This model is not new, but almost no project before has fully realized it. Parallel to establishing an on-chain goods/services economy, deploying RWA on the Interlink Chain L1 platform will help $ITL access readily available liquidity worth trillions of dollars. Furthermore, large corporations and governments can leverage the Interlink Blockchain to manage and optimize the operation of real assets within their systems. $ITL will also be deployed as a reserve asset class backed by physical assets. To achieve the deployment of Interlink Chain as a global RWA platform, four key elements must be implemented simultaneously: - Participants in the Interlink economy must be real people. - The network must ensure compliance with international legal regulations at the highest level. - Core security technologies such as quantum anti-cybilism, sybil resistance, etc., must be integrated to ensure security during long-term, large-scale operation. - The technology points and performance along the chain must ensure fault tolerance, with performance meeting the needs of the real economy. Currently, Interlink started as a free mining project to reach as many real users as possible. After more than a year since its launch, the project is making significant progress in deploying a payment layer with near-instantaneous transaction performance and almost zero transaction fees. This is coupled with research into integrating quantum-resistant technology and applying an AML/KYC compliance model to each user account. In the next phase, when the private Interlink Chain L1 is officially launched, the bridge between the real economy and Interlink infrastructure will be directly opened. Those who are among the first to seize this new wave of financial opportunities will be the ones who will directly change their own positions. I hope you will be one of them. ------------------------------------- 📍Join with us at here: interlinklabs.ai/5588629 - Enter VIP code: 5588629 #Interlink #ITL #ITLG

My Interlink Balance Has Become Zero? 😳 Dear KV, After the recent update, I am receiving 5 to 10 messages daily from community members saying that their $ITLG balance has become zero. The issue is that the balance is now showing as ***** $ITLG (hidden with asterisks). While tapping on it reveals the actual balance, which is actually a good privacy feature 👍 but there is no clear visual indication that the balance is simply hidden. Because of this, many users are getting confused and panicking, thinking their tokens have disappeared. The current UI does not give any hint (like an eye icon) that the balance can be viewed by tapping on the asterisks. 🟠Suggestion: Could we please add a small eye icon (👁) next to the *****? This will immediately tell users that the balance is hidden for privacy and can be revealed by tapping. This small change will significantly reduce confusion and unnecessary panic in the community. Please look into this at the earliest. Thanks! Honest Critic @kv_interlink @scott_itlg @reina_itl @inter_link
