How do you see the development in 2025?
Q1: What are you most looking forward to seeing in the Web3 industry in 2025?
What I am most looking forward to seeing in 2025 is the further integration of the Web3 industry with traditional financial and business systems.
Blockchain technology has gradually broken down the barriers between technology and applications. I hope to see more stablecoin payments, DeFi (Decentralized Finance, Decentralized Finance) products and practical enterprise applications be popularized in the real world and truly promote The development of the digital economy.
At the same time, I also expect to see more promotion of cross-border cooperation and compliance processes, which will contribute to the overall maturity of blockchain technology.
Q2: From the perspective of your professional field, what do you think is the most important trend in the blockchain industry in 2025? What are your prospects and observations?
I think the most important trend in the blockchain industry in 2025 is to find application scenarios that are truly feasible in the long term and can be continuously promoted.
Among them, the development of PayFi (Payment Finance) and stablecoin finance deserves attention. These technologies are gradually starting from B2B inter-enterprise payments, and have the opportunity to gradually penetrate into B2C scenarios in the subsequent development process.
This reflects the potential of blockchain technology to improve financial liquidity, reduce transaction costs, and provide more efficient payment solutions. As more businesses and consumers explore these types of payment and financing models, I believe this trend will become more pronounced over the next few years and drive further maturation of the technology.
Q3: Are there any interesting plans or products you can share in 2025?
In 2025, we will continue to promote product innovation related to Isle Finance and PayFi, and further promote the application of stablecoin payment. We are developing new features to give businesses more flexibility in stablecoin payments and fund management, and to integrate stablecoins into more business processes.
At the same time, we are also exploring cooperation with global supply chain financial institutions and striving to become a pioneer in global blockchain and supply chain financial innovation.
