In the dialogue with Vitalik, he recalled the China story of Ethereum, especially the support of Wanxiang and the regret for Bihui; Vitalik choked back tears several times when recalling the scenes when the Russia-Ukraine war broke out, and the huge changes it has brought to his life, perhaps he can never return to his homeland again; In addition, Vitalik also discussed hot topics such as the Foundation's coin selling, the BCH big block controversy, memecoins, and Pumpfun. Vitalik's Chinese expression may not be completely accurate and a bit bumpy, but he is very sincere, showing firm idealism, and has not avoided any controversial issues.
How was the most profitable application of 2024, PUMPFUN, born? Wu Blockchain interviewed Qiao Wang, the co-founder of Alliance. He not only revealed many behind-the-scenes stories of PUMPFUN, but also elaborated on his super early investment approach, how he invested in PUMPFUN and MOONSHOT when the valuation was only a few million dollars, and ultimately achieved over a thousand times the return. He also shared his views on memecoins in detail.
Murad is considered the new meme king of this cycle. Although his HOLD approach is not fully recognized by the community, his analysis on how to select memecoins became a "bible" for many exchange listing teams in 2049. In this interview, Murad not only introduced his growth background (Azerbaijan, Princeton, Beijing), but also elaborated in detail on why memecoins are rising and his approach to selecting memecoins.
Bybit CEO BEN joked that he is the only head of a top exchange who can be interviewed freely, and he was indeed frank and straightforward, without any nonsense. In this interview, BEN introduced his development strategy concisely and without reservation, and did not avoid sensitive topics such as the platform token and layoffs. As a media, we also encourage more people to be as frank as BEN in facing the media and the community, with less routine and more sincerity.
In addition, in 2024 Wu Blockchain also experienced some popular social events. For example, an exclusive interview with the victim of the DWF partner drug incident, restoring the shocking process of the entire incident; interviews with two victims defrauded by Shenzhen University's Zhang Yufeng. The lessons behind these two events are also worth industry's attention.
There was also a podcast episode that was one of Wu Blockchain's most closely watched content this year. Of the two interviewees, one sold out before the ACT listing, and the other hoarded the tokens for a week and was pleasantly surprised to wait for the Binance listing. The wealth effect of ACT has left a deep impression on this meme frenzy cycle.
GMGN is one of the biggest beneficiaries of the meme coin explosion this year. This interview reviewed the growth process of GMGN.
