Gate Founder Dr. Han: In the Next 1-2 Years, Three Major Opportunities Will Focus on RWA, AI+Crypto, and the Convergence of CeFi-DeFi

Odaily News: On April 20th, Dr. Han, Founder and CEO of Gate, accepted a group media interview at the Rosewood Hotel in Hong Kong. Dr. Han stated that in the next 1-2 years, the three most core opportunities in the crypto industry will focus on RWA, the deep integration of AI and Crypto, and the accelerated convergence of CeFi and DeFi. These three main themes are driving the industry from a single growth logic towards deeper structural upgrades, redefining both the underlying infrastructure and the ways assets are connected. Within this trend, Gate's AI three-terminal matrix has been fully implemented, while the trading volume of Perp DEX and Gate Layer continues to grow, consistently leading industry transformation.

Dr. Han emphasized that the crypto industry is transitioning from a high-growth experimental phase to a more regulated and structured cycle. Regarding the future market structure, he believes that exchanges, project teams, institutions, and users will coexist long-term, forming a more complex and mature ecosystem through mutual collaboration. Gate will focus on building infrastructure capabilities and a diversified asset system, driving the platform's evolution from a trading gateway to a more comprehensive crypto ecosystem infrastructure.
