Dear partners, today is a special day, TRON Independence Day.

Eight years ago today, the mainnet officially launched, and a brand new public chain began its journey.

Looking back at these eight years, starting from scratch, step by step we have reached the current position.

Users have surpassed 390 million, transaction count exceeds 14.5 billion. These numbers didn't come out of nowhere; they are accumulated from every transfer, every address, and every interaction.

What's more worth mentioning is that the total value of assets transferred has reached the trillion level. This is not a small number; it is real liquidity and value transfer.

And behind it, billions of people have benefited, gaining access to more convenient, transparent, and lower-cost options.

Eight years: not too long, not too short either.

Along the way, there have been ups and downs and challenges, but every step has been solid.

Technology has been iterating, the ecosystem continues to expand, and more and more people are starting to learn about and use TRON, from Asia to Africa, from payments to infrastructure, with coverage growing ever wider.

Today, celebrating Independence Day is not just about commemorating a point in time, but also thanking everyone who has been with us along the way.

Developers, users, ambassadors, partners—none of them can be missed.

There is still a long road ahead, but the direction is clear and the steps are firm.

Continue moving forward, bring the value of TRON to more places, and let more people enjoy the convenience brought by blockchain.

Eight years is just the beginning. Let's walk the road ahead together.
