@Joel_Dupalco 1. Heavy use of “Web4/Web5” marketing terms without enough real technical proof. 2. The 1000-session mining requirement is extremely long and may discourage normal users.

Decentralization milestone: Founder treasury moved on-chain Date: May 25, 2026 Whitepaper version: v3.4 (live at a-network.io/whitepaper ) Hey everyone... a big one to share. Today I (@Joel_Dupalco) moved the entire 50% founder allocation I hold (10,499,798 wANET) out of my personal hot wallet and into AnetBridgeVault... the smart-contract custody we've been building toward in v3.1 → v3.3. What changed Until today, 10.5M wANET sat in an ordinary BEP-20 balance on an EOA I controlled with a single key. That's a single-key risk. As of today, that exact balance is held by a smart contract that: • Is non-upgradable. Ownership renounced. • Requires 2 of 3 independent EIP-712 signers for any release. • Has hard release caps: 10k per tx, 50k per recipient per day, 250k total per day. • Has a dedicated pauser that can panic-stop releases. • Cannot rescue wANET even by the admin. The vault asset is locked from administrative withdrawal. Why it matters This is the Bitcoin principle applied to a project treasury: no individual... including the founder... can unilaterally move the money. Even if my laptop got compromised tomorrow, my single key cannot drain the vault. On-chain proof • Vault contract: 0x31438362a7667ce5559500023D025c7c14168B49 • BscScan: bscscan.com/address/0x3143… • Vault balance after deposit: 10,499,898.020348 ANET ✅ • wANET token contract: 0x791055A7d52AA392eaE8De04250497f33807E46A (ownership renounced) What's next 1. Co-founder mirror deposit — the other 50% of the founder allocation will be moved into the same vault. 2. Admin role migration — the current admin EOA gets replaced by a 2-of-2 Gnosis Safe co-owned by both founders. Plan is published in the repo. 3. v3.5 roadmap — rotate one of the three signers to a non-founder operator, so the signer set is operator-independent. 4. After 6+ months of clean multisig operation: admin role renounced, vault becomes fully Model-2 (no privileged role at all).

This was the milestone I was most determined to ship before mainnet adoption scales up. — Coach Joel

@kv_interlink @itl_fdn even more problems could arise in the future. The community is already slowly going down, and if more negative impacts like this continue, it will strongly affect the community of any cryptocurrency project.

This week, all engineers and researchers at @itl_fdn will begin deploying each module of the entire core infrastructure for the upcoming Private Mainnet

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.

@kv_interlink @itl_fdn If curators were assigned to verify users from their own countries, the KYC process would become much faster ⏩ and there would be less negative impact on KYC approvals. Otherwise, investors and users may start thinking that if KYC delays and negative issues are happening now,

“AMA sessions build trust, not just updates. Restricting them without clarity weakens transparency. This project belongs to everyone — all have the right to speak. Positives and negatives should both be discussed. We request clear guidelines.” @kv_interlink @scott_itlg

@tanisainterlink Hi Tanisa, what happened? It’s been so many days. I’m really happy to see you back in activity. 🙂

When loyal people are pushed aside, and those who are trusted are only flatterers with loud mouths, eventually there is no solid team left everyone brings each other down for position and money. There is no longer honesty, sincerity, or brotherhood in working together. Walking away from an environment like this is a way to preserve your mind, stay sane, and remain happy each day. What a pity.. you only chase the world, even though this world is no bigger than the wing of a mosquito. good morning Interlinkers😊

First, let’s talk about the technology reality. Today we already have some of the most advanced AI systems in the world such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and Claude. These AI systems are capable of performing face recognition, document verification, and biometric comparison in seconds. In most modern identity verification systems, an AI can complete a per-user verification in 5–10 seconds when the documents are clear. So the real question is not about understanding the process — it is about system scalability and implementation. Here are the key concerns from a technical perspective: 1. AI Verification Speed Modern AI can verify identity extremely fast. If the infrastructure is properly optimized, millions of KYC checks can be processed in parallel. 2. Infrastructure Design If there are already multiple AI verification layers in place, then long delays indicate either: limited processing infrastructure inefficient queue management excessive manual intervention 3. Global KYC Complexity Yes, different countries have different ID systems. But AI models today are trained on global identity datasets and can recognize multiple document formats. 4. Queue Bottlenecks If millions of users are waiting for curator matching, that indicates a system bottleneck, not a community misunderstanding. Now let’s address something even more important. Community is the backbone of any crypto project. Without a strong community: adoption does not grow investors lose confidence network effects collapse A blockchain project is not defined by T1, T2, or T3 ranks. It is defined by the strength and trust of its community. If the community starts losing confidence due to unresolved operational issues, investors will ask a simple question: "If the project cannot maintain trust within its own community, how will it scale globally?" This is not “pressure.” This is constructive feedback from people who care about the future of the ecosystem. Strong projects grow by listening to the community, improving systems, and scaling technology accordingly. Because at the end of the day: No community → No adoption No adoption → No ecosystem No ecosystem → No value. @dare_tube #InterLink #ITLG #CryptoCommunity #KYC #Web3 #Blockchain #EarlyAdopters @VyxCrypto629 @reina_itl @kv_interlink @inter_link @rahulsai_k @JTodupunuri @Bullruntelugu @C_Interlinklabs @RajuTceh @SivaSteve144093 @MaheshMagnus1 @wealthyvibes555 @scott_itl @Sadiqtech_ @JCrypto42266 @Digitalgold1979 @BaskaranBBV

Sorry sir my self understanding purpuse of normal linkers not even understanding how maintain my pressure somany calls messages regarding kyc i only asked to check for not my question it's community question am there in system from 8months i will understand but my issue is normal linkers not even listen my words so asked for community only no other than personal

@yaxye12011063 @inter_link @kv_interlink @reina_itl @itl_fdn @itlx_defi Still in queue or Completed?

@smartbyte_world @inter_link @kv_interlink @reina_itl @itl_fdn @itlx_defi Honestly, the verification is difficult. The curator system is unclear and I don't understand how it works. This morning when I joined, there were 8,800 names ahead of me, and now the number has passed 50,000, yet I have still not been accepted. I really don't know how things ar

Here is a short, sharp English post you can use with that image 👇 When KYC finally opens… but the system can’t handle the crowd. 😅 Today, as InterLink Curators KYC started, thousands of users rushed in hoping to complete their verification. But with so many people trying at the same time, the process feels like standing in a long line… waiting for your turn. For many users, it almost looks like everyone is holding a plate and waiting, hoping the curator will approve their KYC soon. The reality is simple: When a network has a huge community, the verification process can take time. Servers, curators, and systems need to handle thousands of requests at once. So patience is the key. If the ecosystem grows stronger, today’s waiting line might become tomorrow’s success story. 🚀 Sometimes early adopters must wait the longest. #InterLink #ITLG #CryptoCommunity #KYC #Web3 #Blockchain #EarlyAdopters @VyxCrypto629 @reina_itl @kv_interlink @inter_link @rahulsai_k @JTodupunuri @Bullruntelugu @C_Interlinklabs @RajuTceh @SivaSteve144093

@scott_itl I’ve been in the Curator process queue for 3 days, and it’s still moving slowly. If I cancel now and select another curator, will I remain in the same queue priority?

🚀 InterLink V5.0 KYC Update The new Curator-based KYC system ensures every user gets verified securely and transparently: $ITLG → Verified → $ITL ✅ Two Curator types: Human & AI ✅ Full user flexibility: Choose Curator by country, type, or strategy ✅ Strict oversight: No under-the-table actions, all activities monitored by the InterLink Foundation ✅ Continuous process: Verification runs non-stop, scaling with ecosystem growth Step into the next phase of trusted blockchain verification! #InterLink #ITLG #ITL
