During Consensus HK, Gate actively engaged across the conference agenda through a series of high-level networking events held over three consecutive days, connecting with participants from different sectors of the ecosystem. Gate Founder and CEO Dr. Han was invited to take part in key conference sessions and deliver a keynote speech, demonstrating Gate's continued presence and influence in industry dialogue, brand engagement, and ecosystem collaboration.
At the conference, Dr. Han delivered a keynote speech on the main stage at Consensus HK, focusing on the convergence of TradFi, Web3, and AI, sharing Gate's in-depth insights and strategic thinking on the long-term evolution of digital asset infrastructure. He pointed out that the growth of global crypto users has slowed, while the number of on-chain assets and applications continues to climb, significantly increasing the complexity for users in filtering information and executing decisions. The industry is now facing new structural bottlenecks. Against this backdrop, Dr. Han proposed the development direction of "Intelligent Web3", in which AI agents, centered on user intent, automatically match and execute optimal solutions across multiple chains and protocols, improving efficiency and security under verifiable mechanisms. As the industry moves from a single focus on transaction efficiency toward system-wide coordination and intelligent decision-making, AI is becoming a key variable connecting TradFi and Web3.



Beyond the official conference agenda, Gate also concurrently hosted a series of offline industry events during Consensus HK, fostering deeper dialogue and collaboration among different communities and ecosystem participants. On February 10, Gate Ventures hosted a high-level networking event, "Gate Ventures Executive Dinner: The Convergence" at The Peninsula Hong Kong, inviting dozens of industry representatives to attend. Guests from renowned investment institutions, traditional financial institutions, and leading Web3 projects, including Pantera Capital, Hack VC, Lightspeed, and ADEN, engaged in in-depth discussions on financial system integration, cross-sector collaboration, and long-term value creation. On February 11, Gate held a high-level networking reception attended by over a thousand industry participants, focusing on frontier trends such as AI, Web3, and RWA, encouraging the exchange of perspectives and practical insights across diverse backgrounds. On February 12, Gate hosted an institutional-focused event at Rosewood Hong Kong titled "Gate Institutional Circle: CrossEx · Next-Gen Cross-Exchange Trading Infrastructure". The event welcomed nearly one hundred guests from leading institutions, including Copper, Alber Blanc, Cyantarb, Flow Trader, Flow Desk, Pulsar and Wincent, to explore institutional-grade infrastructure development, risk management frameworks, and collaboration models, discussing the key conditions for the industry's transition toward a more mature stage of development.










Through coordinated participation in the conference, thought leadership, and a series of side events, Gate continues to play a bridging and connective role within the global Web3 ecosystem, facilitating more efficient interaction and collaboration across capital, technology, products, and application scenarios. This multi-layered, cross-community engagement not only helps strengthen shared industry understanding but also creates a more constructive foundation for long-term cooperation among ecosystem participants.
Looking ahead, Gate will continue to engage in global industry dialogue with an open and long-term perspective. Through technological investment and ecosystem collaboration, Gate aims to further advance the deep integration of TradFi, Web3, and AI, supporting the digital asset industry's evolution toward a more intelligent, resilient, and sustainable future.
