In 1994, the Japanese invented the QR code. Employees of Toyota used this thing to scan for car parts in the warehouse, which was highly efficient, but apart from that, no one used it.

In 2014, the Chinese began using WeChat/Alipay, allowing for payments and adding friends with a scan, which was very convenient. From then on, the QR code became a sensation, and we now use it every day.

Born in 1994—exploded in 2014, the QR code itself did not change at all, but with the popularity of smartphones, the potential user base grew exponentially, and it suddenly turned into an essential tool in life.

🌈 Ecosystem and users are really damn important.

Nowadays, there are so many AI products, and every company claims to have amazing technology, but how many actually have application scenarios and real users? Even good wine fears a deep alley.

Ever since the little octopus @OpenledgerHQ inexplicably sent me a $600 red envelope, I've noticed that this guy knows how to create excitement, unlike the silent tech geek teams.

They officially announced a strategic partnership with Trust Wallet to add an AI "personal companion" feature in the wallet. If I had a beautiful female college student AI assistant every day analyzing my wallet's financial situation and making suggestions, it would be too easy to get hooked.

This Trust Wallet has a pretty high adoption rate in Europe and the US, and after being acquired by Binance, it has become stronger, officially announcing that it has 200 million users. This time, Openledger is collaborating with it to use AI chain technology to serve 200 million blockchain enthusiasts. Wow, I am really looking forward to it. Please launch the feature soon!

🍀 When making products, you must not work behind closed doors. AI technology must serve the users; otherwise, it's just boring code. There must be users, and user growth is key.

The little octopus really knows how to create excitement; this project is quite interesting.
