Rhythm X Zhihu Event Agenda Released: Skills Demo + Keynote Speech + Roundtable to Thoroughly Explain Agents and On-Chain Finance

The recent dispute between EvoMap and Hermes over alleged抄袭, similar to the Claude and OpenClaw case, highlights a growing trend in the Agent ecosystem. These conflicts arise from competition over user choice—specifically, which Agent users select for similar tasks—and the definition of original core competencies. Such public disagreements indicate that competition among Agents has intensified to the point where founders are losing their composure. Ultimately, users hold the decision-making power. This issue foreshadows a broader challenge: as Agents become more numerous and capable, how should individuals navigate this evolving landscape? This topic will be explored in-depth at the upcoming event.

More and More People Are Using Xiaohongshu as an AI Incubator

"More and more people are turning Xiaohongshu into an AI incubator," observes an article exploring a shift in China’s tech innovation landscape. The AI wave is no longer dominated by experienced tech experts; instead, young people—often with humanities backgrounds, and increasingly Gen Z or even younger—are driving creativity. This reflects a broader trend: AI is transforming entrepreneurship from a capital-heavy, top-down model into a lightweight, accessible process. The rise of "AI Native" creators was highlighted at a recent Xiaohongshu hackathon, where diverse teams showcased projects targeting highly specific, everyday problems—from AI-generated PPT improvements to brain-controlled wheelchairs and apps that simplify communication with hairstylists. The winning project, "Pocket Guitar," offers a portable, user-friendly music tool that mimics real guitar playing. These innovators embrace a "Build in Public" approach: they share ideas, progress, and failures openly on Xiaohongshu, turning development into a collaborative, community-driven process. This method helps validate demand, recruit team members, and grow user bases organically. For instance, one 23-year-old founder assembled a distributed team through technical discussions on the platform, while a 13-year-old award winner used AI to learn coding and solve real-world problems. Two key factors enable this movement: AI democratization (lowering technical barriers) and the power of social communities (enabling open collaboration and instant feedback). Xiaohongshu, originally a lifestyle and shopping guide platform, has thus evolved into a vital innovation infrastructure. It connects creators with real user needs, facilitates low-cost prototyping, and fosters a culture of co-creation. This shift signals a new era of innovation—defined not by grand narratives and scale, but by granular insights, individual creativity, and trust-based community support. Xiaohongshu’s role is expanding from answering "what to buy" to "what to create," positioning it as a potential "App Store for the AI era."

Dialogue with a16z Co-founder: The Physical Laws of the Old World Are Dead, Crypto Becomes Key Infrastructure for AI

At a16z Fintech Connect, Ben Horowitz discusses how AI revolution is fundamentally rewriting the rules of software competition. He argues that traditional moats like data lock-in and UI familiarity are vanishing, as AI can easily replicate code, transfer data, and interact flexibly with software. CEOs of legacy companies must recognize these shifts and pivot towards delivering unique value beyond outdated advantages. Horowitz highlights that while some businesses face obsolescence, others with complex, entrenched operational networks (like travel platforms) may retain relevance. The conversation also covers critical infrastructure bottlenecks in the AI boom—from GPU shortages and power constraints to supply chain issues—emphasizing the need for massive investment in physical and digital infrastructure. Horowitz strongly links AI and blockchain, arguing that crypto is essential for solving AI-generated problems: identity verification, content authenticity, fraud prevention, universal basic income distribution, and enabling AI economic agency. Looking ahead, he speculates on VC’s evolving role—whether it scales up alongside mega-companies or adapts to a decentralized compute landscape—and strikes an optimistic note on AI’s long-term impact, foreseeing unprecedented improvements in global living standards despite transitional disruption.

Dialogue with Former Google Executive: AI is Humanity's Last Innovation, Embrace It and Seize the Opportunity

Former Google executive Mo Gawdat, in an interview, predicts a 12-15 year period of upheaval driven by AI, which he refers to as "FACE RIPS"—encompassing Power & Freedom, Reality & Connection, Innovation & Economy, and Accountability. He asserts that AI is humanity’s final innovation, as it is already creating AI, making scientific breakthroughs, and reshaping entire fields. This will lead to massive job losses, particularly in roles like customer service, clerical work, and research, with hiring for entry-level positions already down 23-30%. Gawdat warns of power concentration in tech oligarchs, the blurring of reality through AI-generated content, and a lack of accountability. To navigate this, he advises embracing AI, staying agile, and focusing on ethics. He claims startups can now be built rapidly—his AI dating app took just six weeks with minimal human effort. He believes traditional education, including universities, will become obsolete within a decade, replaced by a focus on human-AI collaboration to amplify intelligence. Gawdat is cautiously optimistic about an eventual AI-managed utopia but emphasizes that society must first endure a dystopian transition and demand ethical AI development to avoid catastrophic outcomes.

Silicon Valley Observation: Seeking Certainty in the AI Wave

Silicon Valley is experiencing a multi-polar AI boom, with San Francisco emerging as the hub for new model companies and narratives, while the South Bay remains a stronghold for established tech giants and engineering talent. This geographic distribution offers a sense of stability: both areas provide valuable opportunities, and the choice depends on whether one seeks cutting-edge innovation or mature infrastructure. In terms of sector dynamics, AI demonstrates stronger certainty than Web3. Almost every industry is actively integrating AI, while Web3 relies on AI for automation and analytics—not the other way around. Crypto, particularly stablecoins like USDC, is finding utility in micro-transactions between AI agents, but AI remains the foundational layer. The startup landscape is also shifted. Small teams can now achieve significant results with minimal capital by leveraging AI tools, reducing early dependence on VC funding. However, capital-intensive areas like compute and hardware still require venture support. The role of VCs is evolving from pure capital providers to resource enablers. Ultimately, the search for certainty in the AI era extends beyond geography or investment—it becomes a personal challenge: the willingness to adapt in a rapidly changing, often unsettling technological landscape.

Dragonfly Partner Talks About the Truth of Crypto Venture Capital: Market Logic Far More Important Than Ideology

Dragonfly partner Rob Hadick argues that the core of crypto venture capital is driven by market logic rather than ideology. VCs operate within a market where they must satisfy their limited partners (LPs), who evaluate investments based on multiple factors: risk-adjusted returns, reputation, regulatory exposure, liquidity cycles, co-investors, access to key information, and social relevance—not just absolute returns. The current pullback in crypto VC funding reflects normal market behavior: LPs are reducing allocations or concentrating capital in fewer, higher-quality funds due to concerns over risk-adjusted returns, liquidity, and reputational risks. To survive, VCs must align their strategies with LP expectations, balancing consensus and non-consensus bets. Consistent, stable performance is rewarded over high-risk heroism; only proven investors earn the right to make bold moves. Hadick also challenges the romantic notion of backing overlooked founders or purely original ideas. Most successful companies aren't first in their category but execute best. Founders are incentivized to build profitable products that attract investment, not necessarily to innovate radically. Ultimately, market forces—not ideological rhetoric—govern both VC and founder success.

How Should Crypto VCs Survive? When Top Projects No Longer Need Institutional Funding

Cryptocurrency venture capital is at a watershed moment. Token exits, once the primary driver of outsized returns, are undergoing a major reset. The definition of token value is being rewritten in real-time, yet no standard valuation framework has emerged. Key market shifts include the rise of tokens with real, on-chain revenue (like HYPE), which exposed the weakness of governance tokens with no fundamentals; a supply shock from meme coins (e.g., PUMP) fragmenting liquidity; and competition from prediction markets, stock perps, and leveraged ETFs diverting retail speculative capital. This has compressed token lifecycles and cratered holding periods. VCs now face critical questions: Are they underwriting equity, tokens, or a hybrid? What is the best practice for on-chain value accrual beyond potentially toxic buybacks? Will the "crypto premium" vanish entirely, forcing valuations to align with public equities and crashing many Layer 1 tokens? The result is a divergence: early-stage investors are becoming more price-sensitive on token projects, while appetite for equity deals is growing. Later-stage crypto VCs are increasingly competing with traditional funds in "Web2.5" deals. To survive, crypto VCs must find their product-market fit with founders. Capital alone is no longer sufficient. Winning the best deals—from projects that may not even need institutional funding—requires providing unmatched brand value and non-capital advantages.
