Hey, you! Listen!

We're gearing up to publish Symbol's Annual Report for 2022 at the end of the month, but we need YOUR HELP to make it a success.

Read below!

An Annual Report is a critical publication produced every year that showcases the growth and advancement of a blockchain protocol.

They take many different forms - some are published by venture capital, some by a Foundation, and others by community members.

Our 2022 Annual Report will be produced by @SymbolSyndicate and will be sent out to exchanges; service providers; analysts; news organizations and more. I'll also be presenting the results and information in Japan this year.

In order to make this publication the most comprehensive and complete piece that it can be, we need your help. We're missing information - read below, and contribute what you can!

The report has five key sections: payments, applications, developers, corporations and community.

1. Payments. This section showcases all of the vendors (including cafes, fortune tellers, hairdressers, and more) that accept $XYM. We need help - reply to this tweet or DM me with the store; their location; and what service they provide.

It would also be good to feature profiles of the individuals that run these locations, so if you can, provide us a paragraph on the store and a bit of information about the owner! Their thoughts on blockchain and what they think about Symbol would be great to include.

2. Applications. This section showcases all of the applications that were built during 2022. We've included some of the highlights from NEMTUS' hackathon, and we know about the various wallets (AEM+, EXYM, Arcana, SSS), but we need more!

Reply to this tweet (or DM me) with a summary of your favorite application; link me to the Twitter profile of the author; and provide a brief summary or description in your language of your experience and what you like about it.

3. Developers. This section showcases all of our developer metrics - how many commits did we push to /symbol in 2022? What features were released and what bugs were squashed?

We also want to include profiles of the developers that are building on Symbol...

Reply to this tweet with a link (or DM me) to the developers that have inspired you in 2022. What did they build on Symbol? What did they teach you?

4. Corporations. This section showcases all of the companies that are working together to grow Symbol. This will include @IncOpening, @SymbolSyndicate @NemtusOfficial @faunsu19000's Decentralized Guild, and @Symbol_Times.

If you work at one of these corporations, please reply to this tweet (or send me a DM) with a sentence or two about yourself and what you or your company accomplished in 2022!

5. Community. This is our final section, highlighting the specific community members and their contributions. @D_laplace666 and their interviews in @cluster_jp; @TrendStream's trading threads and poetry; GodTanu's grumblings; @nembear's efforts, and more.

@D_laplace666 @cluster_jp @TrendStream @nembear Reply to this tweet (or send me a DM) with members of the community and what they've done in 2022. A great example would be @essan_symbol's XYMTOURs, or @MTN_syndicate's leatherworking.

There are so many of you that each work to grow #Symbol in your own way - now is the time to… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@D_laplace666 @cluster_jp @TrendStream @nembear @essan_symbol @MTN_syndicate Finally, we need screenshots - lots, and lots of screenshots! Reply to this tweet (or DM me) with your favorite memory that happened in 2022, whether it was in Cluster or Discord.

@D_laplace666 @cluster_jp @TrendStream @nembear @essan_symbol @MTN_syndicate The success (or failure) of the chain depends on your contributions. There are so many profiles (8000 of you follow me!) that I can't keep up with everyone alone. I need your help!

So let's work together to make this Annual Report the best it can possibly be, and showcase the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
