Hello, I am Spinach. Thank you for witnessing my three years of growth in the Web3 industry. Today, I am officially announcing my new role: Head of RWA APAC Strategy at Pharos @pharos_network 🐙 (The testnet has just launched, and everyone is welcome to try it out!) Recently, the topic of being 23 years old has been trending. Looking back over the past three years: At 23, I became a content creator in the Web3 field, successfully gaining 10,000 followers and starting my journey in the Web3 space. At 24, I personally participated in the RWA pilot projects of three central banks, engaging deeply with central banks, governments, traditional finance, and international organizations, and witnessing the potential for the fusion of two worlds. At 25, I was honored to join Pharos as the Head of RWA for the public blockchain, embarking on a brand-new journey of life exploration. They say Web3 is dead, full of hype. My intuition tells me the opposite. - "The industrial revolution had to wait for a financial revolution." Recently, Dr. Xiao Feng's speech "Starting from the Origin" sparked heated discussions in the industry. Looking back at the long river of history, this pattern is clear: From the earliest city-state civilizations to maritime trade and the Renaissance, to the steam engine era and the electrification era, and now to the Internet revolution, every leap in accounting methods has profoundly changed the scale of economies and organizational forms. Today, blockchain's distributed ledger is reconstructing the way global capital flows. Asset tokenization is becoming a new form of assets, and the token economy will give rise to new economic models that change how humans collaborate. - The future financial system will be a fusion of traditional finance and blockchain technology. It's not about one replacing the other but about who builds the bridge first. RWA is not a shortcut, but I firmly believe it is the right direction. Like the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, it doesn't surge overnight but flows day and night, eventually reshaping the landscape. When we see major traditional financial institutions actively embracing RWA, central banks viewing blockchain and tokenization as the next-generation financial system, and the new SEC chairman in the U.S. comparing RWA to the transition from analog vinyl records to tapes and then to digital software, I know the wind is coming 🌬️. The era of RWA is about to arrive! Why Pharos? Choosing to join a project is like choosing a ship. The ship's performance determines how far you can sail, the captain's vision determines where you will go, and the crew's configuration determines the stability of the voyage. The core team members come from Ant Group, with extensive experience in blockchain technology. It is currently the highest-performing parallel EVM blockchain comparable to Solana and one of the few teams capable of innovating at the blockchain infrastructure level. In terms of business layout, Ant Group, as a pioneer in the RWA field, has set a benchmark case with its Hong Kong RWA project, which has been widely studied and discussed, benefiting from Pharos' strong Ant background. This unique background advantage allows Pharos to directly connect with traditional financial institutions, gaining a first-mover advantage in the tokenization of massive RWA assets and creating a unique moat of industrial synergy value. Pharos' differentiated strategy: not blindly participating in the "arms race" of the public blockchain track but leveraging its unique technical advantages and big-company background to focus on RWAFi, payments, and AI in three major areas. This allows Pharos to break out of homogeneous competition and focus on truly valuable issues—how to seamlessly migrate real-world application scenarios onto the blockchain. What moved me most was the down-to-earth attitude of the Pharos team. They don't talk about "revolution" or "disruption" but focus on solving real problems. In an industry full of exaggeration, this pragmatic spirit is especially precious. Pharos, the lighthouse of ancient Alexandria in Greece, guided sailors through the fog. In this blockchain sea, we need just such a lighthouse to illuminate the course. And I am honored to be one of the guardians of this lighthouse. The Web3 world needs more "bilinguals"—those who understand the cutting-edge thinking of Web3 and blockchain technology and are also well-versed in the operational logic of traditional financial systems and regulatory frameworks. To be able to navigate and translate accurately between these two seemingly parallel but inevitably converging worlds, this might be the value I can bring. I look forward to your continued support in the future!
