Hi guys, as you know, we're extremely proud to have provided the smart contract expertise to help Mindshare through an end-to-end programmatic supply chain reconciliation and push Project Proton forward. This is going to mean big things - we are essentially helping revolutionise the advertising and digital supply chain industry. Just in the test campaign alone, held in Southeast Asia in collaboration with PepsiCo, Mindshare recorded a 28% increased efficiency using smart contracts. What do you think the future of the advertising industry looks like with blockchain innovation?

A note from the leadership team : 2019 has been quite a year! From launching the mainnet and developing a smart contract language - to driving mass adoption and forging impactful partnerships across a variety of sectors - it's been a crazy ride. With such milestones under our belt and many more on the horizon, our leaders have had a chance to reflect on the way forward. After a wonderful journey, Xinshu will be taking a step back from day-to-day operations to focus more on strategy as a Director of the board. Amrit will assume the position of President in addition to his role as Chief Scientific Officer, overseeing the overall management and operating responsibilities of Zilliqa. Co-Founders Max, Yaoqi, Prateek and Juzar continue to provide strategic guidance and leadership, as they have always done. As Zilliqa grows, so does our incredibly diverse and talented team, who are the heart of everything we do. We continue to plan for more growth and more meaningful engagement with our community and the industry. As we embrace all the adventures ahead, we would like to thank our amazing community - your support means everything to us.
