Ansem: Trading Will Become the Next Most Popular PvP Game, Tokenization Will Be as Common as Social Media Posts

Odaily News: Crypto investor Ansem stated that in the early phase of the 2023 cycle, Unibot drove the development of on-chain long-tail asset trading by combining a trading terminal with tokens, reaching a market cap of $200 million at its peak. In this current cycle, we will see multiple mobile-first social trading platforms emerge. Trading will become one of the next most popular PvP (player versus player) games.

Ansem also believes that 24/7 perpetual contract trading for stocks and crypto assets will continue to attract retail attention. Hyperliquid has already validated this trend through its HIP-3 stock product, and platforms like Lighter may also benefit. Additionally, he noted that Robinhood was the first platform to prove the viability of the "gamified trading" model, but no platform has yet truly captured the social aspect of trading.

In the current cycle, Ansem said he is most interested in the unsolved problems within the "creator and attention economy." He stated that a large number of token projects want to distribute through creators with large fan bases and are willing to pay significant amounts of money. However, this demand cannot be effectively supported through the ordinary meme coin model. Therefore, his main focus is on productizing this creator distribution demand and creating a model that can benefit token holders.
