10M is just the beginning.
Thank you, and congratulations to every Linker who has been part of this journey, whether you joined us from day one or somewhere along the way. From the bottom of my heart, I am truly grateful to be a part of this journey with all of you.
Along this journey, there have been things that I or the InterLink Labs team could have done better, and mistakes that we have made. I sincerely hope for your understanding, and we will continue to learn, improve, and do better. What I can promise is that we will continue learning, improving, and working even harder to be worthy of the trust every Linker has placed in us.
There is still a long road ahead. As we enter our next chapter, I would like to share the path we are building and the key areas we will focus on over the next five years.
1. Post-Quantum Security
With the extraordinary acceleration of AI and quantum computing, we believe the threat to today’s cryptographic systems can no longer be treated as a distant possibility. Six months ago, we began recruiting world-class researchers and cryptographers to prepare InterLink for this challenge.
Our goal is not simply to react when quantum computers become powerful enough to threaten existing cryptography. We want InterLink to be prepared long before that day arrives.
The InterLink Foundation has already made important early progress in researching post-quantum digital signatures and cryptographic architectures. This includes mechanisms that allow users to generate new private keys from their existing seed phrases while using Address Alias to preserve their existing wallet addresses, tokens, and NFTs during migration to a new security architecture. We are also experimenting with SLH-DSA-SHA2-128s (FIPS 205) within IRC smart contracts to introduce an additional layer of post-quantum protection for vaults and high-value digital assets.
These experiments are currently being conducted on the InterLink Taj Mahal Testnet, where our early implementations have successfully passed the NIST-based simulation tests we are conducting.
For us, post-quantum security is not something to think about five years from now. The preparation has already begun.
2. Infrastructure for Real-World Assets
As we can already see, RWA and tokenization are no longer concepts for the future. They are becoming reality right now.
Stocks, bonds, funds, commodities, and many other traditional assets are gradually moving on-chain. Even exposure to shares of some of the world’s largest companies, such as Google and Amazon, can now be accessed through tokenized products. What once looked like an experiment is increasingly becoming part of the global financial infrastructure.
To me, RWA will be one of the most sustainable long-term trends of the next decade, alongside AI. McKinsey estimates that the market for tokenized financial assets could reach approximately $2 trillion by 2030. But I believe the bigger transformation is not only about bringing existing financial assets on-chain. It is about making tokenization accessible to millions of businesses around the world.
So where does InterLink fit into this?
Today, tokenizing a business remains extremely difficult. A company needs blockchain infrastructure, smart contracts, liquidity mechanisms, technical expertise, and significant legal and regulatory resources. For smaller businesses and startups, these barriers can make tokenization almost impossible.
This is exactly the infrastructure gap we want InterLink Business Token Exchange (IBTE) to address.
Most tokenization platforms today focus on bringing assets onto infrastructure built by someone else. For example, tokenized assets may be issued and distributed through existing networks such as Ethereum. InterLink’s vision is different: we want to build the entire infrastructure required for businesses to tokenize within one ecosystem.
From business token consulting and deployment to blockchain infrastructure, AMM, liquidity infrastructure, protocol support, and eventually broader RWA infrastructure, our goal is to create an end-to-end environment where businesses can move from the real world to on-chain markets without having to assemble everything themselves.
Over the next five years, we want to continuously reduce the technical and operational barriers to tokenization until launching a business token becomes dramatically simpler and more accessible than it is today.
3. Open Mainnet
Open Mainnet is targeted for 2027 and will mark the stage where InterLink becomes fully connected to the broader blockchain economy. The network will open to external liquidity, wider integrations, and unrestricted interaction with ecosystems outside InterLink.
This will also mark the end of mobile mining. No new ITLG will be generated through mobile mining after Open Mainnet. However, users who already hold ITLG will continue to go through the verification and migration process to receive ITL. The ITLG earned by early Linkers will therefore remain recognized under the migration mechanism.
After this transition, the primary way to earn new ITL directly from the network will be through validation. Participants will be able to stake ITL, operate validators, help secure and maintain the blockchain, and receive ITL validator rewards in return.
This represents the transition from InterLink’s early distribution phase into a fully operational blockchain economy. Mobile mining helped InterLink reach millions of people; Open Mainnet will shift the network toward staking, validators, external liquidity, applications, businesses, and real on-chain economic activity.
4. Listing Tier-1 Exchanges
Another major objective is to bring ITL to Tier-1 global exchanges, with Binance, OKX, and Coinbase among our key targets.
Reaching this stage requires much more than simply submitting listing applications. Over the coming period, we will focus on building relationships and negotiating with leading market makers and liquidity providers, establishing sufficient liquidity and healthy market structures, completing the necessary legal and compliance frameworks across multiple jurisdictions, and meeting the technical, security, operational, and due-diligence requirements expected by major exchanges.
At the same time, we will continue discussions with exchanges and strategic partners to ensure that any listing is supported by sustainable liquidity rather than short-term incentives or artificial trading activity.
Our objective is not to list ITL everywhere as quickly as possible. We want to build the legal, liquidity, compliance, and institutional foundations necessary for ITL to be accessible through the world’s leading exchanges and markets.
5. Continue Expanding the Digital Asset Treasury Company List
Over the next five years, our target is to have at least 500 companies and institutions holding ITL as part of their Digital Asset Treasury, with more than 20% being publicly listed companies.
To achieve this, we will focus on establishing the necessary legal, accounting, custody, compliance, disclosure, and risk-management frameworks across different jurisdictions, making it easier for companies to hold ITL on their balance sheets under clear and compliant structures.
We will continue working with legal advisors, accounting firms, institutional custody providers, and strategic partners to reduce regulatory and operational barriers for both private and publicly listed companies.
6. Expanding ITL Utility
This will be one of the most exciting areas to watch. A growing number of companies are preparing to integrate ITL into their products and services, and several of these integrations will be announced progressively in the coming period.
Our goal is to make ITL usable across everyday life: airline tickets, hotels, travel, fashion, shopping, food, entertainment, gift cards, digital services, and many more categories. Instead of building isolated use cases, we are working toward an expanding network where ITL can move across different businesses, services, and markets.
Some of what is being built has not yet been announced. As these partnerships and integrations go live, Linkers will gradually see ITL move from something they hold in their wallets into something they can spend across a growing real-world economy.
The next chapter of ITL utility is much bigger than what you see today. And many of the most important integrations are still ahead of us.
7. Scaling Verification & Democratizing Digital Asset Ownership
Our long-term objective is to democratize access to digital asset ownership, making it possible for anyone, regardless of geography or economic background, to participate in the digital economy and own ITL.
To achieve this at global scale, we will continue expanding verification capacity and accelerating the verification process while maintaining rigorous KYC/AML, anti-fraud, sanctions screening, identity integrity, and risk-based compliance standards where applicable. Speed and accessibility must scale together with security and regulatory responsibility.
We will continue strengthening AI-assisted verification, human review systems, duplicate and synthetic identity detection, and global verification infrastructure to support a significantly larger verified user base.
Ultimately, our ambition is to make ITL one of the most widely held digital assets in the world, distributed across a broad base of verified human participants rather than concentrated among a small number of holders. Digital asset ownership should not be limited to a few. Our goal is to make it accessible to everyone.
These seven priorities will serve as the key pillars guiding our direction over the next five years.
Thank you all, and once again, congratulations to every one of us on reaching this incredible milestone. 10M is just the beginning.

Wall Street Is Moving Financial Infrastructure Onchain. What's Next for InterLink?
Wall Street is not just tokenizing assets anymore. It is beginning to move the underlying infrastructure of financial markets onchain.
The recent decision by S&P Dow Jones Indices to tokenize its iBoxx US Treasuries Index on the Canton Network is a significant milestone. While many people focus on tokenized stocks, bonds, or real estate, the larger story is that benchmark data itself is now being delivered through blockchain infrastructure.
For decades, financial institutions have relied on centralized databases, data vendors, and proprietary systems to access market information. Blockchain introduces a different model where assets, market data, ownership records, compliance rules, and settlement systems can exist within a shared digital environment.
This is particularly important for US Treasuries, which are increasingly becoming the foundation of tokenized finance. Today, tokenized Treasury products represent the largest segment of the global RWA market and continue to attract significant institutional interest because they combine the stability of government debt with the efficiency of blockchain infrastructure.
However, tokenization is only one piece of the puzzle.
The real challenge is creating the infrastructure that allows billions of dollars of real world assets to move securely between businesses, institutions, applications, and users. Assets need trusted ownership records. Businesses need verifiable identities. Regulators require compliance frameworks. Developers need infrastructure to build applications. Markets require liquidity and discovery mechanisms.
This is where ecosystems like @inter_link can play an important role.
For real world assets to be tokenized at scale, there must be a trusted digital identity layer connecting people, businesses, merchants, organizations, and institutions. Without trusted identity, the value of tokenization remains limited because participants cannot easily verify who they are interacting with.
@inter_link is building infrastructure that can support this future through verified human identity, business verification, payments, decentralized applications, and a growing ecosystem of real world utility.
Imagine a future where:
• Businesses can tokenize ownership, revenue streams, memberships, loyalty programs, or real world assets.
• Verified merchants can issue digital assets linked to real economic activity.
• Users can discover, trade, purchase, and interact with tokenized products through applications built on the ecosystem.
• Payments, settlements, reputation, and identity are connected through a common infrastructure.
• Developers can launch applications that bridge traditional business activity with blockchain technology.
Tokenization will not be limited to government bonds, stocks, or financial products. Over time, it could extend to businesses, intellectual property, memberships, services, rewards programs, commercial agreements, and many other forms of value.
The winners of the next decade may not be the platforms that simply tokenize assets.
They may be the ecosystems that provide the identity, payment, application, and business infrastructure necessary for those assets to be useful in the real world.
Wall Street is showing us that the future is moving onchain.
The next step is ensuring that real people, real businesses, and real economic activity can move onchain as well.

🔐 Update on the Upcoming Verification Process
We know many of you are looking forward to verification - and we’re stepping closer to that moment.
This process is designed to be structured, transparent, and fair, ensuring every qualified Human Node moves forward with clarity. Here’s how the flow will work:
Phase 1: Matching
You begin by tapping “Match Curator.”
An anonymous list will appear, and you can choose a curator to match with.
After selecting, you enter the matching state and wait to be successfully picked. Once picked, your application advances to the submission stage.
Phase 2: Submission
When it’s your turn, a strict 24-hour countdown will start.
You must complete and submit your documents within this time. Missing the deadline may move you to a later pool, delaying your progress.
There are 3 submission levels. After completing all required steps, you press Submit, and your status changes to In Review.
Phase 3: Verification Process
This is the last stage - your application will be reviewed carefully.
This process is more than a technical update - it’s a defining milestone before full verification rollout.
Prepare early. Understand each phase.
Be ready when your turn comes!
