What is the true value of infrastructure? It’s often only understood when it’s missing.

Imagine if there were no unified and reliable data layer support; each protocol would have to handle data acquisition and verification on its own—repeating efforts and increasing system complexity, while also amplifying risks. Each layer doing the same work results in ridiculously low efficiency.

WinkLink’s value lies precisely here. It consolidates these costs, which are originally scattered across various applications, into the underlying layer to solve the problem. The benefits are obvious: simplifying the system architecture and reducing overall risk.

Interestingly, this centralized infrastructure solution has become a key driver for improving efficiency in decentralized systems. It may sound contradictory, but in the actual operation of the Tron ecosystem, it’s indeed the case—this is not a short-term strategy but a structural system optimization.

Talking about infrastructure again... I've been through this before. Where are those so-called "revolutionary underlying" projects from 2018 now? Some have run away, some have gone to zero. WinkLink's rhetoric sounds good, but a centralized data layer is basically putting all the risk into one basket. When problems arise, everything collapses together. Don't tell me about "structural optimization"—I'm only concerned about contract risk and whether the project team is reliable. Let's wait until the bear market comes.

Well said, this is the invisible value of infrastructure. Usually, no one pays attention to it, but when problems arise, it's too late to regret.

To be honest, without this infrastructure, it's truly a nightmare. Everyone has to go through their own data verification process...

You're really speaking harshly. Just waiting for the day the chain breaks so you can regret it then.

Reinventing the wheel is really incredible. Every project handles its own data layer, so it's no wonder the efficiency is so low.

Honestly, without a solid data layer foundation, each doing their own thing will eventually backfire. Has anyone ever calculated the cost of reinventing the wheel...
