IN ADDITION, WE MANAGED TO RAISE THE PROFILE OF INTERLEDGER GLOBALLY, RECEIVING COVERAGE IN 70 MEDIA OUTLETS INCLUDING TOP-TIER FINANCIAL AND TECH MEDIA TO DATE, REACHING 10 MILLION MEDIA IMPRESSIONS. WE ADVANCED OUR OPEN PAYMENTS AND WEB MONETIZATION PRODUCTS, AND EXPANDED THE NETWORK TO 3 NODES RUNNING INTERLEDGER AND OPEN PAYMENTS, AND EXPANDED OUR COMMUNITY EFFORTS.
