A thousand years ago, the Great Wall guarded the border and territory. Today, the wind turbines and photovoltaic arrays guard a country's energy security and the lifeline of the next generation industrial system. Sunlight and wind have never been so systematically organized, embedded in national strategy, and become part of sovereign capabilities as they are today.
In the Web3 industry, everyone knows that mining is a fundamental existence, and it is one of the most primitive and robust infrastructures in this ecosystem. Every bull and bear cycle, every prosperity on the chain, cannot be separated from the continuous operation of mining machines. And we

Testing stablecoins with JD.com: Exploring the next rise in the Web3 industry.

> We are experiencing the "Suez moment" of stablecoins.

Written by: Niu Xiaojing

How much is a channel worth?

Once you look at a set of data, you'll understand:

Annual income exceeds 6 billion dollars;
Average daily revenue exceeds 1
