"When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you." We know all too well which paths lead to quick profits and fuel user FOMO. But a wise person loves money, but acquires it ethically and skillfully. Often, the real challenge isn't "knowing how to make money quickly," but rather choosing which profits to forgo. While most platforms focus solely on coins, trading volume, and fees, OKX is one of the few that truly gives back to the industry's foundation—continuously funding Bitcoin Core development, using real money to safeguard its "underlying security" and "long-term sustainability." We are fully committed to compliance, building a rigorous compliance system, striving for recognition from more sovereign nations and regions, and obtaining key licenses. All of this is for the boss's wish: I want to vindicate the crypto. When I first heard my boss say that, I thought it would be very difficult to achieve. But when I saw him posting his own product feedback in the group chat day after day, sharing user feedback on Twitter, leading the team to optimize the product, and discussing industry hot topics, I felt like I was getting a little closer to achieving the goal every day. To ensure compliance, the boss himself studied books, essentially training himself to be a "half-compliance employee," all to ensure regulators truly understood the industry at the negotiating table. A while ago, a photo of the boss with British officials surfaced, and he joked at the company's annual party that his wife scolded him, saying, "You weren't even wearing a suit at our wedding!" Perhaps wearing a suit was simply a way to improve the industry's public image. I, too, have stared into the abyss repeatedly, asking my boss, "Why don't we aggressively list coins?" and "Why don't we take the money offered to us?" But time has proven that crypto is a long-term endeavor. Those who survive are often not the fastest to list, but rather those who are willing to clearly define the boundaries. Time will provide the answer. I hope that one day we can openly discuss the industry we are working hard for, anywhere and on any occasion, and be met with respect and admiration.

No complexity. No accident. 10/10 was caused by irresponsible marketing campaigns by certain companies. On October 10, tens of billions of dollars were liquidated. As CEO of OKX, we observed clearly that the crypto market’s microstructure fundamentally changed after that day.
