The sea breeze in Phuket is so refreshing right now; I just finished OKX's New Year's Eve dinner, and the afterglow is still quite strong. 🌊
This gathering felt very different. When you see those usually decisive big shots on the blockchain, now wearing flip-flops, making dumplings, pasting up "Fu" characters (good fortune characters), and even cheering for a raffle on the beach, you suddenly realize: Web3 is not just cold candlestick charts and code; it's still about connecting "people." This long-lost community warmth is truly healing.
But beneath the warmth lies undeniable ambition. Star @star_okx didn't spout any empty platitudes at the dinner; instead, he directly set his sights on 2026. The most exciting spoiler for me was the deep integration of "AI + Web3"—the AI Trading Bot that's about to be internally tested. It's not just a simple grid tool; it's an intelligent agent that can truly understand emotions and automatically execute strategies.
If we've been building infrastructure over the past few years, then we might truly be entering the era of "intelligent game theory." It's wonderful to have met a group of warm and supportive people during this period. 🥂
