Building the Future: Cooperation and Development of the Trias Ecosystem
Dear Trias community,
It is a pleasure to reconnect with you all. Over the past period, we have had the opportunity to engage with numerous partners and gain valuable insights. Simultaneously, we have closely monitored the development of our ecosystem and during this time, several innovative ideas have emerged, which I am eager to share with you.
After careful consideration of the community’s feedback, we have decided to delve deeper into specific topics rather than addressing individual questions. We believe this approach will facilitate a more comprehensive and meaningful discussion.
Progress with Partners
This year, we have significantly expanded our partnerships with both traditional Web2 and innovative Web3 companies.
Late last year, Octa Innovations announced a cooperation with the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing (CFLP) to build a blockchain-based big data platform for the logistics industry. As of today, this platform has served over 30 partners, including industry giants like China Logistics Group, China Everbright Bank, Soochow Securities. Last week, our platform was honored with the 2024 “Top Ten Outstanding Cases of Industrial Blockchain” and “Top 50 Industrial Blockchain Enterprises” awards by the CFLP (https://www.8lab.cn/newsDetail-en.html?articleId=855). CFLP is the largest federation in China uniting manufacturer and trading companies. It has prominent members including PetroChina, China Energy Engineering Corporation, State Grid Corporation of China, and others. Through our collaboration with CFLP, I am very optimistic to expand the platform’s service to these members in the coming years.
Even more, we have extended the platform’s services to the State Administration for Market Regulation, a ministerial-level body overseeing the registration and operation of enterprises nationwide. Leveraging the platform’s supply chain data and data from at least 90 million enterprises across the country, we have launched a national enterprise credit index. This index has been adopted by numerous government agencies as a crucial reference for policy making (https://news.sina.com.cn/shangxunfushen/2023-07-25/detail-imzcxcqp7799763.shtml). Our technology has amply demonstrated the ability of blockchain, privacy computing and AI, to significantly break down data usage barriers and improve government and industrial operational efficiency. As China continues to promote the asset-ization of enterprise data, encouraging companies to issue financial assets using their data and trade these assets to realize data usage rights or returns, we expect to see a surge of richer data and data applications flowing into our platform.
Currently, due to China’s ongoing restrictions on crypto, we cannot fully integrate this platform with the NetX mainnet, and Trias has to engage in indirect collaborations with prominent traditional enterprises through OCTA Innovations. However, we believe these restrictions will be lifted in the near future. We are already collaborating with a well-known Chinese technology company to jointly develop NetX node devices that will enable Chinese enterprises to access the global Web3 network while meeting new compliance and security requirements once the ban is lifted. We believe that by connecting Chinese enterprises and supply chain data to the world via NetX, we have the potential to become the busiest and most comprehensive public chain ecosystem globally, truly serving the real economy and transforming the lives of over 1 billion people.
On another front, in May, we officially announced our partnership with NetStars, a renowned QR code aggregated payment company. Their nearly 600K POS machines are widely distributed across Japan and continue to grow. With the JPQR initiative, they are expanding quickly to SouthEast Asian countries. (https://netstars.co.jp/en/2023/08/09/netstars-selected-as-a-subsidized-company-for-ministry-of-economy-trade-and-industrys-unified-qr-code-payment-interoperability-system-construction-project/). They have a large number of consumer giants and payment companies as their clients, such as recent partnerships with Agoda, NTT Data, Mitsubishi, and Mastercard (https://netstars.co.jp/en/2024/03/25/netstars-adopted-as-qr-card-payment-gateway-for-sumitomo-mitsui-card-payment-terminals-stera-terminal-unit-stera-terminal-mobile-promoting-cooperative-acquir/).
In July, we, in collaboration with NetStars, unveiled the groundbreaking NetStars-Tusima Web3 aggregated payment gateway. This pioneering solution represents the world’s first comprehensive integration of Web3 assets into large-scale consumer payment scenarios. As we continue our partnership with NetStars to advance Web3 technology across Japan and Asia, we anticipate that all of NetStars’ partner business models will have the potential to leverage the NetStars-Tusima Web3 aggregated payment platform. For more information on this exciting development, please visit the official NetStars website.
Tusima: Connecting Crypto and Real-World Payments
Recently, we unveiled a video showcasing the NetStars-Tusima Web3 aggregated payment POS machine, generating significant interest. While crypto-enabled POS machines have existed for some time, widespread adoption has been limited due to the complex business integration required.
Our Web3 aggregated payment POS solution, however, offers a unique advantage by seamlessly integrating with NetStars’ extensive network of 600,000 POS devices. This strategic partnership allows us to bypass the traditional challenges of merchant onboarding and expedite the adoption of crypto payments. Currently, we are diligently working to obtain the final necessary licenses to complete the Web3 aggregated payment process. Our ambitious goal is to enable offline crypto transactions at these 600,000 POS machines by early next year, coinciding with the Osaka World Expo. This groundbreaking achievement will showcase our technological leadership and accelerate the mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies.
Tusima’s ultimate vision is to enable the seamless integration of any cryptocurrency into offline payments. This fundamental shift in how we perceive the utility of cryptocurrencies aligns with their core purpose for any currencies: facilitating real-life transactions. While Web3 projects have successfully tokenized various human activities, many tokens are primarily used for speculation rather than real-world utility. By imbuing any token with payment functionality, we can unlock their true potential and drive mainstream adoption. This will empower individuals to generate value through their skills and actions, creating a more inclusive and prosperous digital economy. Imagine a future where trillions of dollars worth of crypto assets are seamlessly integrated into our daily lives. By connecting these digital assets to offline consumption, we can unlock unprecedented economic opportunities for individuals, businesses, and nations alike. Tusima aspires to be the foundational infrastructure that powers this transformation.
To achieve this ambitious vision, Tusima will introduce a revolutionary PayFi infrastructure powered by autonomous trading AI Agents. This innovative platform will empower investors and project teams to establish staking and liquidity pools, fostering a dynamic and balanced ecosystem. Leveraging a decentralized AI Agent network, Tusima will optimize resource allocation and streamline payment processes, enhancing user experience and maximizing efficiency. Additionally, the platform will enable unique consumption scenarios for various tokens, such as GameFi tokens that can be redeemed for extra in-game rewards or discounts. By integrating token payments with traditional rewards systems, Tusima aims to stimulate consumer demand and merchant participation. With a potential market size of 1.37 trillion US dollars in Japan’s electronic consumer market, Tusima is well-positioned to accelerate the mass adoption of Web3 technologies.
Triathon: A New Chapter in the AI Era
Triathon has been under development for over two years, and we are incredibly grateful for the unwavering support of our dedicated community. This only fuels our commitment to achieving Triathon’s critical mission. Over the past 24 months, our relentless research and development efforts have pushed the boundaries of what Triathon can accomplish in the realm of smart contract security.
We began by establishing an AI-powered smart contract security detection, the DetectionAI. Driven by our community’s requests, DetectionAI has analyzed over 600k contract addresses and identified 12,000 security vulnerabilities. Recognizing the challenge of acquiring more raw data for AI training, we developed FuzzyAI, an attack simulation platform. FuzzyAI allows Triathon to automatically generate diverse attack scenarios, testing smart contract resilience against unforeseen threats. This has resulted in over 3 million rounds of rigorous attack testing.
Furthermore, by integrating DetectionAI with FuzzyAI, we achieved a significant milestone: the automatic training and detection of contract security vulnerabilities. This innovative approach enabled the discovery of 23 new smart contract vulnerabilities. This accomplishment naturally led us to explore the possibility of automatic smart contract repair. We have achieved this by automatically generating contracts with code specifically designed to address security vulnerabilities. This groundbreaking work represents a significant leap forward, allowing AI to facilitate the automatic upgrade and evolution of smart contracts. Our research on this topic was recently published in a prestigious academic journal: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0164121224001523
While the publication of our research paper may seem recent, the underlying work was completed last year. Early this year, through Octa Innovations, we have established strategic partnerships with Huawei on jointly developing Triathon’s AI capabilities. We launched an insurance model based on a large language model (LLM). This model is one of the first eight that Huawei has introduced globally to date. Currently, our team is making significant advancements in extending Triathon’s AI capabilities, particularly in the domain of intent-driven smart contract automation. This system encompasses the full development lifecycle, from programming to testing and deployment, all orchestrated through natural language interactions with Triathon AI.
This advancement represents a fundamental democratization of blockchain technology. We envision a framework where the creation of digital assets, cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and decentralized financial applications is not restricted to technical specialists but is accessible to everyone in the Web3 community. This aligns with the core principles of decentralization, enabling direct participation and expression from all community members to jointly build and run any crypto projects through AI rather than relying on centralized development teams.
The Triathon AI architecture facilitates this through a network of AI Agents that interact directly with users, comprehend their objectives, and collaborate to achieve consensus through inter-agent communication. This system enables automated requirement gathering, smart contract generation, and community-driven validation processes, establishing a truly decentralized framework for project and token deployment. Our research has yielded particularly promising results in two critical areas: automated contract generation and functional verification. These capabilities have been successfully demonstrated in our test environment, positioning us at the forefront of this technological frontier.
The broader implications of automated smart contract generation extend beyond immediate applications. We envision this technology as a foundational element in the evolution of AI collaboration and human-AI value alignment. Smart contracts, in our view, should transcend their current role as digital representations of human agreements and instead serve as the framework for AI-to-AI interactions in the digital sphere. This includes service level agreements, interaction protocols, pricing mechanisms, and transaction validation. By enabling AI systems to autonomously generate and execute these contracts, we can significantly enhance the efficiency of AI collaboration and establish a robust AI-driven economy. Human oversight remains crucial, primarily through the specification of validation criteria and evolutionary parameters, ensuring controlled and beneficial AI development.
To achieve these objectives, Triathon will utilize the results of smart contract security audits and advanced AI capabilities to launch the AI Payment Protocol and multi-agent collaboration infrastructure on the NetX mainnet. The AI Payment Protocol is a fully decentralized, agent-driven system where a Super Agent calculates and allocates contribution rewards to each agent, which is owned and trained by each community member. Within this multi-agent collaboration infrastructure:
SHIP serves as the source of smart contract security auditing capabilities and the total quantity is always 20000. Using GEON, SHIP can be continuously upgraded, ensuring more reliable and professional auditing capabilities that evolve alongside sustainable project development.
Agents enable automated smart contract generation, with daily training to continuously optimize their business adaptation abilities. Meanwhile, GROW acts as the driving force, accelerating the development of agent capabilities and promoting their flexible use across diverse business scenarios.
The ecological benefits of GEON will also be significantly enhanced. Holders will be entitled to shares of new contract tokens launched through multi-agent collaboration, unlocking even greater value. Additionally, GEON, along with TRIAS and GROW, will share access to AI agent capabilities and exclusive benefits within the NETX ecosystem. This major update is imminent — stay tuned for more details!
This initiative marks a significant milestone: the first Web3 project built through multi-Agent collaboration, representing the dawn of a new era in Decentralized AI.
NetX Mainnet Ecosystem: The Advent of the AI Economy
We’ve noticed that our community has been closely following the mainnet recently. First and foremost, we want to thank all members of the Trias ecosystem for their strong support and trust over the past few years. As a Layer ‘-1’ infrastructure, Trias has been operating stably for nearly three years since its launch. With the continuous expansion of the ecosystem, we have introduced the Trias Layer 1 mainnet — the NetX Network.
Since the launch of the NetX mainnet, it has generated 7.9 million blocks without any downtime, over 10 million on-chain transfers, and over 550,000 active wallets, with an average block time of only 3.2 seconds/block. Moreover, Tusima has generated over 490 million on-chain transfers, with a total offline payment value exceeding 7 billion US dollars. Since the launch of Triathon’s Agent, in just two months, 25,000 Agents have been successfully created, and nearly 18,000 Agents have participated in training.
Looking into the future, the NetX ecosystem will be a Web3 ecosystem jointly built by all users and AI Agents. Unlike almost all other public chains, after our mainnet went online, we did not pursue to invite other dApps to migrate to our mainnet. In fact, we don’t want to see our mainnet filled with projects similar to those on other public chain mainnets. Our vision is a bit different! Our vision is to see that 99.99% of the dApps on the NetX mainnet will be automatically generated by AI! By generating smart contracts through AI, we can greatly improve development efficiency, lower the development threshold, and attract more users to join the NetX ecosystem. Imagine, in the future, you only need to input a prompt sentence like building blocks, then select key capabilities, and you can use the Triathon AI Agent’s contract deployment capabilities to generate DeFi, NFT, or even MEME projects on NetX. In the future, you don’t need to have design or programming skills, as long as your imagination is strong enough, with the support of powerful Triathon AI Agents, you are a development team!
Simultaneously, as the Tusima network expands, we’ll seamlessly integrate vast quantities of real-world data — from consumer behavior and supply chains to business operations — into the NetX mainnet. The ultimate goal is to realize the ‘small data network’ vision outlined in our NetX whitepaper. By breaking down the traditional, centralized data silos of Web 2.0 and leveraging advanced privacy technologies, we’re ushering in a new era of Web 3.0, characterized by true data interoperability. This wealth of data will empower Triathon AI Agents to unleash their creativity and build more innovative and rapidly evolving decentralized applications.
We envision a future where anyone can easily construct decentralized equivalents of platforms like Google, Facebook, X, or Uber on NetX, tailored to their specific needs or groundbreaking ideas. This will enable personalized services and equitable reward distribution for all contributors to the ecosystem. Our aim is to create an AI-powered, collaborative Web 3.0 ecosystem where everyone plays a role in its development and ownership.
$TRIAS Token Economics: The Value of Machine Trust
Since the dawn of humanity, exchanging resources has been a fundamental societal activity, and trust has been the cornerstone of successful transactions. Virtually every aspect of human societal development — religion, culture, morality, law, politics, finance, and even international relations — has been dedicated to establishing trust. While human individuals are complex and difficult to fully understand, machines are relatively simple, as we are their creators. We have the opportunity to embed trust mechanisms into the DNA of machine life from its inception. Trias was founded with this grand vision. In my view, TRIAS is the unit of trust in the digital realm, the currency for trustworthy transactions between machines, and the assurance that humans can place their faith in machines.
As a Layer ‘-1’ protocol, Trias enables machines to mutually verify and establish trust. It defines the social contract between machine life. The core algorithm of Trias is Proof-of-Embedded-Trust (PoET): each machine life is embedded in a community of machines with which it has established a verification and endorsement relationship. Other machines in the community are also embedded in their respective communities, and so on. The overlapping parts of these communities form a web-of-trust that constitutes the machine society in which the central machine resides. The size and dynamics of this society determine the trust value of the machine. According to the PoET algorithm, the more TRIAS a machine holds, the more frequently it will be verified by other machines, the larger and more stable its machine society will be, and the easier it will be to detect its errors or lies, thus making its behavior more trustworthy. Based on this principle, any machine life in the NetX ecosystem, including smart contracts, services, AI Agents, and even data blocks, requires TRIAS to obtain recognition from other machine life in its network, thereby enabling collaboration with other machine life to create new value.
Therefore, to put it simply, the economic model of NetX is: in order to collaborate and create new value (such as issuing new tokens for building new services), machine life needs to borrow TRIAS from humans or other machine life to accelerate the establishment of trust required for collaboration. In return, machine life will return a portion of the value they create (e.g. the right to use new services or a portion of the issued tokens) to the lenders of TRIAS.
This economic model will first be applied to NetX’s major ecological projects: like the cooperation of all machine life, their operation and collaboration also require the establishment of trust, which requires TRIAS. The TRIAS mapping stages of our mainnet is determined according to the development of our different ecological projects. We plan to officially launch the community-participated Layer ‘-1’ node staking function in November. At that time, Tusima, Triathon, and the NetX Layer 1 mainnet will all open their respective TRIAS staking pools. Users can freely choose to participate according to their preferences and get rewards from these projects respectively. Once joining the staking pool, your node will become part of the ecological network and work together with other nodes. At the same time, when the Triathon Agent calls the Trias ‘-1’ layer underlying verification and endorsement capabilities, it needs to collect TAS or eco-token as the resource calling fee and distribute it to the TRIAS stakers. This economic model effectively stimulates the vitality of the ecosystem and ensures its long-term sustainable development.
Community development and other
Let’s now address some of the most pressing concerns raised by our community, following our discussion of recent developments.
- Cross-Chain Bridge: The NetX mainnet cross-chain bridge will gradually increase its capacity according to the migration plan.This enhancement will enable community members to seamlessly switch between the TRIAS mainnet (NetX network) and the BSC/Polygon networks.
- Enterprise Solutions: We are currently upgrading our system products for medium and large enterprises. By 2025, we plan to start providing system products based on Trias technology for small and medium-sized enterprises.
- Community and Market Development: Our team will continue to invest in building our community brand and expanding our market presence within the Web3 industry. Based on our 2025 roadmap, we will soon be preparing a Medium article summarizing 2024 and outlining our road maps for 2025. Please stay tuned for more details!
- Triathon and Ethanim Early Investors: We acknowledge your concerns and are committed to resolving them. To that end, we are currently undertaking a comprehensive review of the economic and strategic elements of our eco projects. A detailed update, including the implications for ship and $GEON holders, and the status of Ethanim’s token and broader initiatives, will be shared in our upcoming Medium article mentioned above.
Join us in building a better tomorrow
We would also like to reiterate our gratitude to the entire Trias community. We understand that building cutting-edge technology takes time and patience. Trias has evolved from a promising project into a movement, a belief shared by many. By staying true to our values, we are confident that Trias will continue to achieve remarkable things.
