Friends I have never met, future explorers:
It is Childrens Day again, and the sun is shining brightly outside the window, just like the curiosity and thirst for knowledge shining in your eyes. At this moment, I write this letter with mixed feelings in my heart, including my infinite expectations for your future, and my deep thoughts on some fundamental values of the era we are experiencing.
When you read this letter, you may already be familiar with Bitcoin, known as digital gold. It is like a seed sown in our era, quietly opening a new chapter of inheritance and awakening in the long river of time. This is not just a pile of codes and algorithms, but also a heritage of ideas - a profound reflection on how value is autonomous and how trust is built. It is like the prelude of a grand symphony. It may be obscure when you first hear it, but only after careful tasting can you appreciate its courage and wisdom to subvert tradition. As a participant and builder of the Web3 era, OKX is well aware of the weight of this inheritance and is committed to building a safe and transparent bridge. For example, our OKX Wallet hopes that every independent individual can manage the private key of encrypted assets independently, explore and verify the reality and vastness of this world in person, rather than blindly follow or rely on it.
Future explorers, we imagine that you will continue to live in the era of information explosion, with all kinds of voices. However, the more so, the more precious independent thinking and judgment become. In the crypto industry of our time, tracks such as MEME, which are full of vitality and uncertainty, are the ultimate test of personal independence. It is like a mirror, reflecting the enthusiasm and impetuousness of human nature, as well as innovation and bubbles. Mr. Fu Lei taught Fu Cong to be a person first, and an artist second. In the world of encryption, we know that we must first cultivate the ability to distinguish right from wrong before we can talk about mastering opportunities. Dont be confused by the superficial noise, learn to see the essence through the phenomenon, and understand the logic and value behind each project. This requires you to maintain eternal curiosity, take the initiative to learn, dare to question, and form your own value anchor. This is the awakening of personal independence, which is more valuable than any short-term wealth code.
The wheel of the times rolls forward, and innovation is an eternal theme. The emergence of Bitcoin itself is a great innovation, which breaks the existing framework and opens up new possibilities. The crypto industry we are in now is the most vivid interpretation of the word innovation. From DeFi to NFT, and then to the grand narrative of Web3, every iteration of technology and the birth of every new concept are full of the hardships of exploration and the joy of success. Today, AI is developing at an unprecedented speed, and its integration with blockchain technology is opening up a new space of possibilities. We look forward to your era, when AI is no longer just a tool, but a true collaborative partner. However, future explorers, true innovation is not a sourceless water or a rootless tree. It needs to be based on a deep understanding of inheritance. Just as Fu Lei taught Fu Cong to master the essence of classical music before he could express himself freely in modern interpretations, when you embrace the infinite possibilities brought by more advanced blockchain technology, you must not forget the most fundamental principles - security, transparency, fairness, and respect for individual rights.
Your world will surely be more full of unknowns and opportunities than ours now. The widespread popularity of intelligent AI may have reshaped your life, work and way of thinking. It may have become your right-hand man in exploring the crypto world. Maybe you will become a builder of this industry in the future, or just a prudent participant, but no matter what the role is, I want to share with you some thoughts from the present:
1. Maintain the depth of thinking:
Dont be satisfied with just a superficial taste. For every new thing, you must have a spirit of getting to the bottom of it. Ask more whys, do more independent research, and equip your mind with knowledge.
2. Cultivate the wisdom of choice:
When faced with a multitude of choices, you must learn to distinguish truth from falsehood and assess risks. Remember, any high return may be accompanied by high risks. We now provide various tools, hoping to provide some useful references for your judgment, but the final decision-making power is always in your own hands.
3. The courage to embrace innovation:
Dont be afraid to try new things, but innovate on the basis of understanding. The world belongs to those who dare to explore and those who are down-to-earth.
4. Do not forget the original intention of inheritance:
No matter how technology develops, the universal values of integrity, responsibility, and the pursuit of beautiful things will always be the beacon that illuminates our way forward.
Words cannot express my feelings. I hope that on this special day when you receive this letter, you will not only be happy, but also plant the seeds of thought. The future crypto world and even the broader technology field are looking forward to your independent thinking and innovative spirit to write new legends. OKX is willing to grow with you and witness every pulse of the crypto era.
I wish you keep your thoughts forever young!
OKX, on a hopeful day in early summer.
