According to ME News, on March 13 (UTC+8), BitMart's Chinese in-depth interview program, "Cryptocurrency Market Observation Bureau," released a new episode. This episode featured Jademont Zheng, CEO and co-founder of Waterdrip Capital, and was hosted by Yuanyuan, VP of Marketing at BitMart.
In this episode, Dashan recounts his experiences from first encountering Bitcoin in 2013 and becoming active on the Bitcointalk forum, to leaving Huawei HiSilicon in 2017 and co-founding Waterdrip Capital with partners. He also shares insights into the early development of the Chinese Crypto community, the ICO craze, the rise and fall of Token Funds, as well as Waterdrip Capital's investment methods and industry observations.
When discussing the changes in investment strategy, Dashan said that in recent years Waterdrip has gradually shifted from the traditional Crypto VC model of "multiple projects, small amounts" to an investment approach of "fewer projects, larger amounts, and deeper involvement," which is closer to a long-term cooperative relationship with projects for joint ventures.
Regarding industry assessment, DaShan emphasized that Bitcoin differs significantly from other crypto assets in its positioning. In his view, Bitcoin itself is a global consensus and macro-level asset, while other public chains and applications are more like ecosystem layers built around this core. He also reiterated his confidence in Bitcoin's long-term value, believing that its price reaching $1 million is only a matter of time.
Regarding technological trends, DaShan believes that the integration of AI and blockchain will be an important direction for the future. With the development of AI agents, the main participants on the blockchain may gradually shift from "humans" to "agents," and the verifiable, traceable, and privacy-protecting characteristics of blockchain will become an important infrastructure for the AI ecosystem.
