The road from traditional finance to Web3

從傳統金融到Web3之路

Mercy_okx (@Mercy_okx): Can you share with us your experience in entering the Web3 industry?

Mercy_okx (@Mercy_okx)：可以跟我們分享您進入Web3產業的經驗嗎？

Honest Mr. Mai (@Michael_Liu93): I entered the financial industry after graduating in 2016. I first worked in a Canadian investment bank for two years and then did mergers and acquisitions. My first contact with blockchain was a relatively accidental opportunity. At that time, when I was researching the field of enterprise services, I participated in a conference call with the Credit Suisse investment research team, where they discussed blockchain technology. I actually heard about Bitcoin in college, but I was more skeptical about cryptocurrencies at that time. It was not until 2017-2018 that I came into contact with the application of Ethereum and blockchain in the field of enterprise services that I became interested in this field and began to invest in some early public chain projects. However, at that time, I was still looking at blockchain from the perspective of traditional VC. It was not until 2020-2021 that I officially turned from the traditional field to cryptocurrency. Now I mainly operate a Bitcoin secondary market fund.

誠實的麥先生（@Michael_Liu93）：我是2016年畢業後進入金融業的，先在加拿大投行工作了兩年，然後做併購。我第一次接觸區塊鏈是一個比較偶然的機會。當時我在研究企業服務領域的時候，參加了瑞信投研團隊的電話會議，他們討論了區塊鏈技術。我其實在大學時就聽說過比特幣，但當時我對加密貨幣更持懷疑態度。直到2017-2018年接觸了以太坊和區塊鏈在企業服務領域的應用，才對這個領域產生了興趣，並開始投資一些早期的公鏈項目。不過，當時我還是從傳統VC的角度來看區塊鏈。直到2020-2021年我才正式從傳統領域轉向加密貨幣。現在我主要經營一檔比特幣二級市場基金。

Mercy_okx: From initially being a VC to focusing on Meme coin trading, what is the logic behind this transformation process?

Mercy_okx：從最初做VC到專注Meme幣交易，這個轉變過程背後的邏輯是什麼？

Honest Mr. Mai: I am a person who likes to chase new opportunities. I will go wherever there is a wealth-creating effect. Now the market opportunities are obviously in the secondary market. You can either buy Bitcoin to get Beta returns or participate in the chain. However, I also went through a period of discomfort when I first entered the chain trading. I found that many friends who sent me private messages said that it was difficult to get started with chain trading and they lost money as soon as they entered. In fact, I also lost money for half a year at the beginning, and I was "cut" by others every day. This is because even if you have stable profitability in the secondary market, you have to be educated by the market again when you come to the chain. So I suggest that everyone should accept this process calmly, because this is a necessary tuition fee.

誠實的麥先生：我是一個喜歡追逐新機會的人。哪裡有創富效應我就去哪裡。現在市場機會顯然在二級市場。您可以購買比特幣以獲得 Beta 回報，也可以參與該鏈。不過，我剛進入連鎖交易的時候也經歷過一段不適應的時期。我發現很多私訊我的朋友都說鏈上交易很難上手，一進去就虧錢了。其實一開始我也虧了半年錢，每天都被別人「砍」。這是因為即使你在二級市場有穩定的獲利能力，但來到鏈條上你還要再次接受市場的教育。所以我建議大家冷靜地接受這個過程，因為這是必要的學費。

My previous VC experience is very helpful to me now. In essence, they are all financial markets, and they are all games of human nature. The logic of market making and retail investors selling is very similar.

我以前的VC經驗對我現在非常有幫助。本質上，它們都是金融市場，都是人性的遊戲。做市和散戶拋售的邏輯非常相似。

Meme coin market in-depth insights

Meme幣市場深度洞察

Mercy_okx: How did you start building your personal IP? What do you think is the most critical factor in increasing your fans from a few thousand to more than 60,000 in a short period of time?

Mercy_okx：你是如何開始打造你的個人IP的？您認為讓自己的粉絲在短時間內從幾千人增加到六萬多，最關鍵的因素是什麼？

Honest Mr. Mai: I think I was lucky, and I got on the right track in several waves. First of all, I realized very early that personal IP and voice are very important in the Meme track. Because Meme is essentially a communication game, if you are a super communicator or information center, you can be closer to other information centers. In all financial markets, information gap is always the most valuable.

誠實的麥先生：我覺得我很幸運，幾波就走上了正軌。首先，我很早就意識到個人IP和聲音在Meme賽道中非常重要。因為Meme本質上是一款交流遊戲，如果你是超級交流者或資訊中心，你就可以和其他資訊中心拉近距離。在所有的金融市場中，資訊缺口永遠是最有價值的。

When I first created the account, I wanted to develop it in the direction of Meme. At first, I mainly shared some of my secondary market experience, such as how secondary market makers operate, including some retail investors chasing Dog and Hamster on TON at the time. I analyzed the market making and harvesting methods behind these projects. These contents resonated with many people, and the account grew from a few hundred followers to a few thousand.

剛創建帳號的時候，我想往Meme的方向發展。首先我主要分享了我的一些二級市場經驗，例如二級市場做市商是如何運作的，包括當時在TON上追狗和倉鼠的一些散戶。我分析了這些項目背後的做市和收穫方式。這些內容引起了許多人的共鳴，該帳戶的粉絲從數百人成長到數千人。

Later, I started to share my experiences on Meme. Then Solana exploded quickly, and I caught this wave of market. Although I caught

後來我開始在Meme上分享我的經驗。然後Solana快速爆發，我抓住了這波行情。雖然我抓到了
