Retiring after entrepreneurial success to become an investor? This industry leader discusses the new era of crypto assets

【Blockchain Rhythm】A founder of a major exchange recently appeared at the Davos World Economic Forum, sharing some personal insights during discussions on the new era of finance.

After these years of hustle, he frankly said that he no longer has the energy to start a business from scratch—the kind of intense, day-and-night effort he used to put in. He said he simply can’t do that anymore. “My body and mindset are different now,” so his current focus has shifted to investment and options rights.

What’s even more interesting is his observation of the entire industry. From last year to now, he has clearly felt that the crypto asset track is expanding rapidly: data and intuition both indicate a fact—significantly increased exposure, more participants, and even traditional financial institutions are starting to enter the market one after another. Under the influence of certain policy attitudes, this wave of change is particularly noticeable.

In his words, the entire ecosystem is growing larger, which is a very significant signal for the long-term development of the industry.
