Svmuu News On the occasion of its 13th anniversary, Gate founder and CEO Dr. Han released an open letter titled "Unleashing the Power of Change Amidst Cycle Transitions," reviewing the platform's journey from early exploration to global development and systematically outlining his views on industry cycles and future trends.
Dr. Han pointed out that as CeFi continues to extend into DeFi, platforms are evolving from centralized trading vehicles towards more open ecosystem structures. The crypto industry is shifting from being "narrative-driven" to "infrastructure-driven," with the competitive focus moving from products and scale to systemic capabilities and structural advantages. In the next cycle, platforms with robust infrastructure capabilities will no longer be merely market participants but will become integral components of the rules themselves.
Dr. Han stated that Gate is gradually transitioning from a builder to a shaper of the industry's structure, continuously investing in trading depth, risk management capabilities, and a global compliance system, while simultaneously making strategic moves in areas such as RWA, TradFi, DeFi, and AI. Furthermore, Gate is actively advancing its global brand building by establishing partnerships with top-tier international sports IPs like the F1 Red Bull Racing team and Inter Milan, accelerating its connection to a broader global user base.
Looking ahead, Gate will continue to strategically focus on infrastructure capabilities, deepening its investments in ecosystem connectivity, technological prowess, and its global system to meet the higher-dimensional industry competition of the new phase.
