Justin Sun and HTX DAO Discuss the Future of Web3 at Hong Kong Whale Night

On April 8, during the Hong Kong Web3 Festival, the TRON x HTX DAO 2025 Whale Night took place—a gathering of cryptocurrency industry representatives focused on decentralized governance and Hong Kong’s role in global finance, according to a press release.

Justin Sun, founder of TRON and advisor to HTX DAO, shared his 13 years of industry experience and outlined his vision for the next phase of Web3 companies’ development.

According to him, the digital asset market could reach $200 trillion in the future, with HTX DAO and TRON forming the foundation of a new decentralized financial system.

“The market may rise or fall—we are not here for speculation, but to build,” Sun stated.

Head of HTX Ventures, Alec Guo, noted positive regulatory shifts: in Europe, due to the adoption of MiCA, and in the US, thanks to the current administration’s more open stance. He stated that these changes create conditions for the influx of significant institutional capital.

HTX DAO ambassador Liu Ye (Molly) introduced an on-chain voting mechanism on the TRON blockchain, emphasizing that all HTX token holders can now vote on active proposals. Currently, two initiatives are under discussion on the HTX DAO website: the creation of a DAO committee and the launch of a DAO Talk interview series.

Also speaking at the event were Nano Labs founder Jack Kong and Google Cloud’s head of security Ken Zhang. Topics included cybersecurity, infrastructure development, and engagement with developers.

HTX DAO is an organization focused on creating a “financial freedom hub” and implementing DAO approaches in exchange operations. Its participants can propose, vote, and jointly develop the TRON and HTX ecosystem.

Previously, Justin Sun stated that HTX has every chance to return to the global top three leaders.
