Today we gathered at the top of Pine Hill in Hong Kong, very happy to meet with a few old friends: Teacher Frank @qinbafrank, Dayu @BTCdayu, Blue Fox @lanhubiji, and Bingo @Bingo_z9. We are all "old hands," but each one is tougher than the last. I suddenly feel that this is a great way to vacation. According to the "毛人" (毛 is a slang term for making money), this is "one fish, multiple meals." While losing weight, we are also expanding our minds, having high-quality discussions, connecting with the right people, and linking to more possibilities. Most importantly, we are truly happy. This state itself is the greatest gain. In the past month, I've climbed four mountains: Lion Rock + Wutong Mountain + Pine Hill + Crooked Neck Mountain. Teachers who are not very fit and feel a bit weak are welcome to contact us, you know what I mean.

If I had to use some words to evaluate this matter, I can only say: Wow, amazing. With a market cap of 2 trillion USD, BTC has only 41 Bitcoin Core developers, and only 5 maintainers have the real authority to merge code into the mainnet. Over the past 10 years, only 13 people have held this position. Traditional tech companies often have tens of thousands of developers and spend billions of dollars on R&D each year, while Bitcoin's annual protocol layer budget is only in the millions. There is no foundation, no unified treasury; who supports Bitcoin Core? That's right, through funding. Bitcoin relies on a loose collection of organizations, individuals, and corporate donations, with every penny spent wisely. The article reviews 13 major funding organizations, Surprisingly, the only one from the exchange system that has consistently provided funding for many years is OKX. Really, you read that right, only OKX @okx. Since the OKCoin era, OKX has continuously funded Bitcoin core development. While most exchanges only care about listing coins, trading volume, and transaction fees, OKX is one of the few institutions that genuinely invests real money for Bitcoin's "underlying security" and "long-term sustainability." There are very few institutions that truly pay for the long-term security of the protocol layer. Moreover, I have never seen OKX promote this anywhere before. Kudos to OKX, kudos to Lao Xu @okx @star_okx @Haiteng_okx.

Today I saw that Star @star_okx borrowed 1500 BTC and hasn't returned it, with a maximum value exceeding 1.2 billion, a small target. Wow, counting to zero made my legs cramp. Just a few months have passed, and the market has gone from good to being ignored, The crypto world is lifeless, it's really tough. If I encounter borrowing money and getting Rugged again, or if my wallet gets hacked, it would be a fatal blow. Still the same saying: If you make money, remember not to lend money or coins out, what you lend out is your fortune. Lending will cost you a friend, not lending will also cost you a friend!
