We have a defined vision for the MATRIX project and throughout 2018 we continually worked toward completing the goals laid out within our roadmap. This year we launched the testnet of our blockchain and opened public testing for our AI servers, allowing community members to test our image and pose recognition systems. These community powered testing events have been very beneficial for training our AI algorithms.

Earlier this year we also demoed our Natural Language Smart Contract and announced the Matrix Digital Asset Safe (DAS), and the MATRIX mining machine, each of which we will potentially roll out in 2019.

In regards to the mainnet, a lot of the functionality has been implemented, apart from some minor tweaks, as a result our community was understandably disappointment when we announced that our mainnet would be delayed. It would have been possible to rush out the mainnet and fix issues as they came along, but giving the development team extra time will ensure a better usability experience when we do make the mainnet publicly available.
