Gate founder Dr. Han: AI will become the core competitiveness of the next phase of Web3

The cryptocurrency trading platform Gate held a high-end networking reception during Consensus HK, inviting over a thousand industry guests to participate. Gate's founder and CEO Dr. Han delivered a keynote speech titled "What's the Next Big Thing in Crypto," sharing his latest insights on the development trends in the digital asset industry.

Dr. Han pointed out that the crypto market may face a structural turning point in 2026: RWA and TradFi assets will accelerate their on-chain integration, leading to a deep fusion of traditional finance and the crypto system; AI Agents aimed at Web3 will enter a practical stage, becoming a key infrastructure to enhance interaction efficiency and asset management capabilities; at the same time, DEX, CEX, and AI will accelerate integration, gradually forming an integrated platform model.

Based on this trend, Gate continues to advance its layout around the scaling and integration of Web3. While strengthening GateAI's intelligent analysis and risk control capabilities, it has upgraded the decentralized trading platform Gate DEX and expanded its TradFi product matrix, enriching multi-asset trading and allocation scenarios. Under a unified account system, Gate accelerates the integration of CEX, DEX, and AI capabilities, lowering the participation threshold across markets and promoting the collaborative development of traditional finance and the crypto system.
