Two years passed in no time since the inception of Trinity Network. I hope this letter find all of our long-time supporters well. Wish you all had love and peace in the ups and downs of our crypto world, as you may need that inner peace in the days to come.

In the past 2 years, the work we have done on Trinity Network project was acceptable. We have finished the prototype long ago, tested it long ago, made many variants and updates afterwards, and adapted to new features of bottom layer chains. We discovered many application scenarios, ranging from payment, games, to governance, and so on. We had cooperations with outside teams, and tried to find joint interests. Our technology remains one of the best solutions out there, and will keep iterating.

Our team had seen a short period of turbulence back in early 18’, but remained stable afterwards. Today our diligent developers still constantly contribute to our Github repository, and stable routined reports are published to the community. Also thanks to the generous donation made by your guys 2 years ago, we are still financially capable of supporting the project long-term.

But I will not hesitate to address the elephant in the room, the fact that we failed to actually apply this technology to real-world application. Sadly, how blockchain technology could be applied other than a new kind of monetary system remains a billion-dollar question.

Yet we see hope. For the past 2 years we have seen no (although many new ones are worthy of trials) revolutionary or disruptive innovations other than the ones we have already discovered back in 17’. That means till this day, technologies like state channel, decentralized storage, cross-chain architectures and many others are fairly new and yet to be widely adopted.

Trinity Network team is here to stay and contribute. That was our promise back in the day, and we intend to keep it. We are able to support the team long-term in development, and should any opportunities arise, we will be among the firsts to seize it. And opportunities will be plentiful in the coming years not only because China is embracing blockchain technology at official level, but also due to the intrinsic value of such a technology provides.

I myself also made promise to keep going for years to come. “Giving back to the community” was never an option on the table. I actually find it strange for other people to consider it, because, simply put, Trinity is in a very good position to response to market demands once people get their logics and reasons back.

Unfortunately most cannot, as the economy of our world is in a massively unstable status, not only us, but the entire industry, seen as “risky” and “speculative”, is covered by dust. I believe this is temporary, and ultimately cooler heads will prevail. Decentralization is synonymous to globalization, multi-polarization and greater freedom, and that is the unstoppable momentum of our history. Don’t be fooled by what is temporary.

People are always exactly trapped in their status-quo. And experience of a bull-bear-bull cycle is so precious that we could hardly learn it before actually getting in it. But my life has been so much shaped and defined by the rise of crypto, I will stay for it under the Trinity badge no matter what.

I apologize for the lack of presence in telegram groups and the lack of content in this letter. It’s precisely because I always wanted to present good work to our supporters. It has become a battle in my inner self that I must live up to the expectations. But in reality I know it should be played wisely and carefully.

Thank you for bearing with me with this letter and with the past 2 years. We shall see you in more years to come. And as always, the annual vesting of TNC to team has been indefinitely postponed, again. Please do not ask me why we don’t just burn them, as I said this should be played wisely.

Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays.

Sincerely,

David.Li
