Ten years have passed, what are your thoughts? He Yi: What impressed me the most was when I first entered the industry. In 2013, the price of Bitcoin rose above $1,000, and I found it very exciting. It was also the first time I had a reflection on my life. I often asked myself why I joined this industry, giving up opportunities like working for Travel Satellite TV. It was because, for the first time, something made me rethink my life and what money truly is. Since childhood, our parents have always told us that money is important.

It was created by an independent community team. The launch, which happened yesterday, was incredibly successful. The entire community was extremely excited, and the build-up to the launch was incredible. The feedback from everyone has been amazing. We did encounter a few issues. Even Bybit went down due to the high traffic driven by Notcoin’s launch. The wallet on Telegram also experienced some issues where claims weren’t working properly. As for why it was listed simultaneously on OKEx and Binance, it’s because this is the biggest launch of a web3 game ever. No web3 game has grown to 35 million users in just 3 months before. Consider Axie Inf...

Author | @tmel0211 Editor | Wublockchain Original link： https://x.com/tmel0211/status/1777871689092923636 After spending three days at the Hong Kong Web3 Conference, I have many thoughts that words cannot fully express. I’ll take this fragmented time to share my impressions briefly: 1) From the lively atmosphere of the conference, it’s clear that the market is in the early stages of a bull market.
