What Are Some Good Paths for Chinese Web3 Entrepreneurship? (Part 5)
This article explores pathways for Chinese Web3 teams to pivot toward AI, building on a previous discussion. It focuses on two specific team profiles:
**Security & Risk Control Teams:** These teams, skilled in smart contract auditing, wallet security, and on-chain monitoring, can transition to providing **Agent behavior auditing and AI security governance**. As AI Agents automate tasks, access data, and trigger payments, enterprises will need solutions to monitor permissions, audit logs, control data access, and prevent anomalies—creating a strong B2B demand.
**Application & Community-Focused Teams:** Instead of completely rebranding as AI companies, these teams should use AI to **enhance their existing products**. For example, research platforms can use AI to summarize information and identify signals; community tools can automate user support and analysis; and educational products can create personalized learning paths. The key is integrating AI to solve existing user pain points, like information overload or high operational costs.
The article also advises against certain AI directions for Chinese Web3 teams, such as building general-purpose large language models (too resource-intensive), creating overly broad Agent platforms (hard to monetize), developing AI traders/automated yield products (high regulatory and risk sensitivity), or simply adding superficial AI features without genuine value.
The core conclusion: Successful migration depends not on chasing AI hype, but on **identifying how a team's existing Web3 capabilities—be it in data, payments, security, or user operations—can address real needs in new AI application scenarios.**
