Justin Sun × James Wynn: Discuss the decentralized future and the innovation of the meme ecosystem
On the evening of June 1, Beijing time, Justin Sun, a global advisor of Huobi HTX and founder of TRON, and James Wynn, a well-known futures trader, had an in-depth dialogue on the future of the meme ecosystem and trading platform through Huobi Live.
The discussion not only focused on the pain points and opportunities of crypto trading, but also revealed the core trends of the next round of industry change: decentralization, community-driven, and user freedom.
Former professional Muay Thai fighter and businessman Andrew Tate, as well as the Meme project Moonpig team, also participated in the livestream.
The community is the soul of the Meme project, and Whale is not
James Wynn is known for his huge contract positions and investment and support for the Meme ecosystem. Talking about the current meme ecology, he pointed out that the vast majority of meme projects have been "manipulated by centralized interest groups", reduced to a tool for high-frequency hype, and lost their original cultural core. "Many meme coin teams deliberately make the liquidity pool very shallow and ship when the trading volume is high, and then easily pull up the price to create an illusion." James Wynn said. That's why projects that are genuinely genuine and fully community-driven are all the more valuable. In his opinion, PEPE, as well as MOONPIG, which recently launched on Huobi HTX, are meme projects that have a community spirit and beliefs and can resonate.
When it comes to project selection, Justin Sun and James Wynn share similar views. "I value passion, empathy, and a community with a narrative and soul behind it, especially for projects that are truly decentralized and user-led. Huobi HTX is committed to building a platform that supports high-quality meme projects, and we will do our best to help projects listed on Huobi HTX grow. "
$100 million loss: confrontation with tradersRecently
, James Wynn's highly leveraged contract positions have been the focus of the market, and in the live broadcast, he also shared his experience of being liquidated $100 million, saying that the huge loss was due to the "hunting" of large market makers. "They don't like to see civilians make money, and the bigger your position, the more you'll be targeted." James Wynn said. "When I'm being rounded up, I'm not going to throw in the towel, I'm going to fight back. When the time comes, I will return to the market with 40 times leverage and hundreds of millions of dollars.
"In fact, I enjoyed the process. Even if I make a billion dollars, I won't spend it on myself. I'm not looking for wealth per se, it's about enjoying the thrill of this game. "
Thefuture of exchanges is decentralization,
as one of the most senior builders in the crypto industry, Justin Sun and James Wynn discussed the direction of the exchange." My goal has always been clear: to make transactions faster and simpler, to lower the barrier to entry, and to improve the pain points of existing trading platforms. What I want to build is a more humane, fairer, and freer trading experience. Sun Yuchen said.
On this topic, James Wynn, who has been "hunted" by centralized institutions, also supports the development path of decentralization. He said, "If the exchange wants to improve, it needs to refer to Hyperliquid. Its success lies in challenging the censorship and restrictions of the financial system, removing the set of rules that people are against, without red tape, and allowing people to trade freely. Whether it is CEX or DEX, liquidity is always an unavoidable problem, and the key to solving all this is community-truly decentralized users and communities are our core strength against centralized centralization. Sun
Yuchen admitted that he is working on the mechanism of Hyperliquid. We are doing our best to promote the growth of Huobi HTX. I am also continuing to pay attention to the different features and advantages of other exchanges, hoping to continuously optimize the product experience of Huobi HTX and make it easier to use and closer to users through observation and learning. "
Thepolicy environment is improving, and the crypto industry is being accepted by the mainstream
During the live broadcast, Justin Sun, who just finished his trip to the United States, also shared his views on the trend of crypto policy, saying that he is optimistic about the subsequent development of the industry. During my meeting with President Trump, we also discussed cryptocurrency-related policy issues specifically, and both of us were very optimistic. The current policy environment is becoming increasingly friendly to the crypto industry, especially Bitcoin and Ethereum. In the future, we will see more and more companies and investors begin to recognize this industry.
"In fact, there are already a lot of mainstream public companies buying crypto assets, and this trend is accelerating. There is reason to believe that more large corporations and mainstream institutions will embrace cryptocurrencies in the near future. And in this process, the United States will also become one of the most important countries in the world.
Conclusion: In the next stage, the industry needs more authentic co-builders
from community culture to institutional signals, from market structure to trading freedom, and this live broadcast outlines the multi-dimensional transformation that the crypto industry is undergoing. Justin Sun and James Wynn come from different backgrounds, but they share the same goal: to build a freer, fairer, and more authentic crypto ecosystem.
As James Wynn said on the stream: "[The construction project] for me is not even about the money, but about my sense of self in it. For the industry, this belief is more powerful than the ups and downs of the market.
As one of the earliest mainstream trading platforms in the crypto industry to deploy decentralized development, Huobi HTX has always adhered to the core concept of "user first, technology-driven", and is committed to building a more free, transparent and fair trading environment. From supporting high-quality community meme projects to promoting the construction of the DAO governance system, Huobi HTX is leading the industry towards a more open future with forward-looking strategic vision and practical actions, injecting long-term value into the global crypto ecosystem.
