During the regulatory storm of 2021, many platforms chose to move overseas. But there was one founder who made a different decision.

Why was he the only one to actually carry out a full exit? The answer is simple—he was still in China and had no plans to leave. Other platform owners had already changed their nationality, so they naturally weren't worried.

At the time, there was a widely circulated screenshot of a group chat in the community, which was quite thought-provoking. In it, the founder openly admitted in the platform token holders' group: "Even without us, there are still other top platforms in the market; and if our token is gone, there are substitutes like BNB and OKB."

He didn’t want to run away; he wanted to leave himself a way out. So, he proactively gave up the exchange and token project he had built from scratch. In that environment, such a choice was indeed quite unique.
