At that time, we learned about Polkadot through Xiaojie from PolkaWorld and Guanghua from ChainX. After studying the Polkadot white paper at that time, we were deeply attracted. And, Dr. Gavin also came to China for the first time in 2019 and organized four events in different cities. We were the co-organizer of one of the cities. This offline meeting further strengthened our belief in Polkadot. Taking this opportunity, we also helped PolkaWorld establish an early Chinese community of Polkadot and provided some Polkadot-related content. At that time, there was very little content about Polkadot in the Chinese community. We also wrote the first in-depth Chinese analysis report on Polkadot, which received a large number of reposts and reads.\n\nIn 2020, as Polkadot's technology became more and more mature, we knew that Polkadot's technology was more complex than general technologies, and the Polkadot ecosystem would be a much larger one. Just understanding the progress of Polkadot was not enough for more users and investors to feel its potential. Therefore, in 2020, together with some early participants and investors in the Chinese Polkadot community, relying on years of in-depth involvement in the blockchain industry, we established a professional research and content production team and founded our research institute, focusing on Polkadot research and presenting complex technical content to readers in an easy-to-understand way.\n\nAfter half a year of working for free, we finally passed the strict treasury review, gained the recognition of the Treasury Councils, and started receiving support from the Polkadot treasury. Up to now, we've received treasury support for eight times. This is our ninth application, which means we're among the first batch of those who got treasury support and we've been getting it continuously until now.","contentType":"markdown","commenterNetwork":"polkadot","version":"2","timestamp":1745515588},"address":"149FXUmHgg75z4sk2LzFDyctNLHhzf2YxGMFHT7TakkbeQ7F","signature":"0x8eb283e04045c95272619803a1c411d5e6323a876731a184f0912034352fe25c6b174cbc2df1a01f4b2eec0e5c5301e05fe18522b39c103b746a5777a9e7f489","version":"2"}
