From April 20 to 23, 2026, the 2026 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival, jointly organized by Wanxiang Blockchain Lab and HashKey Group, will once again take place at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.

As an annual event held in Hong Kong for four consecutive years, this year's Carnival will continue to unleash its "home advantage," linking tradition with innovation and connecting the East with the West, allowing global wisdom to converge here.

Gathering of Authorities: The 2026 Grand Event Begins Anew

Heavyweight speakers and global ecosystem partners have gathered to form a solid foundation and diverse structure for this year's event.

Currently, Paul Chan Mo-po, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region; Xiao Feng, Chairman of Wanxiang Blockchain and CEO of Hashkey Group; Duncan Chiu, Legislative Council Member (Technology and Innovation Sector) of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region; Lily Liu, President of Solana Foundation; Cynthia Wu, Co-founder and Chief Business Officer of MatrixPort; Yat Siu, Co-founder and Chairman of Animoca Brands; and Professor Lee Kwok Chan, Dean of the Global FinTech Institute and Professor at Singapore University of Social Sciences (listed in no particular order), among other global thought leaders, have confirmed their attendance to share cutting-edge insights and perspectives. More heavyweight guests will be announced continuously. Stay tuned.

Simultaneously, this year's Carnival is honored to collaborate with strategic partner the Hong Kong Trade Development Council and has received strong support from title sponsor OKX Web3, platinum sponsor Qtum, exclusive dinner sponsor Sui Foundation, first-tier booth sponsors bitbaby, HappyMeta, and SlowMist, second-tier booth sponsors Ellipal, Fufuture, and Passey, and third-tier booth sponsor RWA.LTD (sponsors of the same tier listed in alphabetical order), among other global ecosystem partners, to jointly create a global industry event deeply integrating ideas, resources, and opportunities.

Breaking Boundaries: Linking Tradition and Innovation

The appeal of this year's Carnival extends beyond the native Web3 domain, with even stronger "boundary-breaking" momentum already evident.

Leveraging the deep积淀 of Wanxiang Blockchain Lab and HashKey in resource channels and brand building, as of December 2025, the 2026 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival has attracted over 500 executives from traditional finance and实体产业 to participate. These attendees are all high-net-worth individuals and core corporate decision-makers with a strong interest in the Web3 field.

Tangible cooperation begins with high-quality encounters. This is also one of the core values of this year's Carnival: building a dialogue bridge between cutting-edge digital innovation and vast traditional industry resources, making subsequent integration truly possible.

Connecting East and West: Building a Global Ecosystem

Since its inaugural event in 2023, the Hong Kong Web3 Carnival has rapidly grown into one of the world's most influential crypto summits, providing a high-standard, high-quality, and in-depth platform for global East-West exchange.

Over the past three events, it has attracted over 100,000 on-site participants, gathered more than 350 cutting-edge projects, invited over 1,200 speakers to share insights, and spawned over 400 side events, successfully building a vibrant ecosystem centered around the conference and radiating throughout the city.

As partners have stated, this platform is both "the most locally distinctive industry summit and the only one that can reach millions of high-level local developers, entrepreneurs, and newcomers" and is always committed to "connecting the most forward-looking technological forces globally," continuously "promoting the industry in finding a balance between security, compliance, and innovation."

As a hub connecting Eastern and Western Web3 ecosystems, the 2026 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival will continue to leverage Hong Kong's unique advantage of "being backed by the mainland and facing the world" to build an efficient channel between the Asian market and global resources. This year's event will be dedicated to promoting the deep integration of global cutting-edge technologies, business models, and compliance practices with the Asian market. Simultaneously, it will help local outstanding developers, entrepreneurial teams, and innovative projects step onto the international stage, achieving comprehensive connectivity and value linkage from technology and resources to markets.

In April 2026, let us gather once again in Hong Kong to not only witness the future but also participate in it and define it!

Dan Koe: Kebenaran Kontra-Intuitif, Anda Tidak Perlu Mengingat Semua yang Pernah Dibaca

Penulis Dan Koe berargumen bahwa kita tidak perlu mengingat semua yang kita baca. Masalah sebenarnya bukan pada ingatan, tetapi pada kesalahpahaman tentang pembelajaran. Belajar bukanlah tentang menghafal informasi, melainkan sistem umpan balik di sekitar **tujuan yang jelas**. Kunci sistem ini adalah **memulai dari keluaran (output)**, bukan masukan (input). Alih-alih mempelajari semuanya terlebih dahulu, mulailah dengan proyek nyata dan pelajari hanya apa yang diperlukan untuk mencapainya. Pengetahuan yang berguna diperoleh melalui tindakan, bukan hanya dengan mengumpulkan informasi. Konsep "otak kedua" (second brain) sering menjadi kuburan digital karena orang terjebak dalam koleksi dan organisasi berlebihan, tanpa pernah menggunakan catatan mereka. Solusinya adalah membangun **"alam bawah sadar kedua" (second subconscious)** — sistem yang secara aktif menghubungkan ide-ide dan mengingatkannya pada kita saat dibutuhkan untuk menciptakan karya. Alat seperti Obsidian+Claude atau Eden (dengan pencarian semantik) dapat membantu, tetapi fokusnya harus pada **penyaringan ketat**. Hanya simpan ide yang benar-benar membentuk pandangan dunia Anda dan dapat digunakan dalam proyek Anda. AI berperan sebagai asisten untuk mengurangi gesekan dalam penelitian dan penyusunan, tetapi **nilai, penilaian, dan suara Anda harus tetap berasal dari diri sendiri**. Pembelajaran mendalam dan worldview yang unik adalah hal yang tak tergantikan. Pada akhirnya, mengingat adalah produk sampingan. Yang penting adalah memiliki tujuan, bertindak berdasarkan tujuan itu, dan membiarkan pengetahuan yang relevan meresap melalui penggunaan dan refleksi. Hal-hal yang penting akan tertanam dengan sendirinya.

Generasi Pengusaha Tiongkok Ini Telah Berubah Secara Total

Generasi Baru Pengusaha China: Dari Ekspansi Pasar ke Inovasi Teknologi Mendalam Pada 2026, peta kekayaan China mengalami pergeseran signifikan. Kelahiran perusahaan teknologi seperti Longxin Tech, Cambricon, dan DeepSeek—yang fokus pada AI, chip, dan robotika—menandai transisi dari era internet ke era kecerdasan buatan. Pendiri mereka, seperti Zhu Yiming (Longxin Tech) dan Chen Tianshi (Cambricon), seringkali memulai karir di laboratorium, menghabiskan bertahun-tahun untuk riset mendalam sebelum mencapai terobosan komersial. Ciri khas mereka adalah fokus pada teknologi inti, bukan sekadar model bisnis. Zhu Yiming, contohnya, tidak mengambil gaji selama tujuh tahun hingga perusahaannya untung. Perjalanan ini mencerminkan perubahan mendasar: titik awal kewirausahaan bergeser dari "berbisnis" menjadi "membuat teknologi." Pergeseran ini sejalan dengan transformasi ekonomi China menuju "produktivitas baru." Jika generasi sebelumnya membangun fondasi melalui manufaktur dan digitalisasi, generasi baru ini membangun menara di atasnya—mendorong inovasi orisinal dan bersaing di panggung global di bidang-bidang seperti chip dan model AI dasar. Nama-nama seperti Zhang Yiming (ByteDance), Liang Wenfeng (DeepSeek), dan Wang Xingxing (Unitree Robotics) mewakili kemampuan baru China: tidak lagi hanya mengejar, tetapi berinovasi, menembus, dan mengindustrialisasi teknologi di garis depan persaingan dunia. Transisi generasi ini adalah pergantian kemampuan suatu bangsa dalam bersaing secara global.

Web3 yang Dulu Begitu Populer, Kini Masuki Gelombang PHK

Web3 yang pernah panas memasuki gelombang PHK besar-besaran. Di tengah klaim bahwa AI adalah alasan utama pengurangan tenaga kerja, banyak perusahaan sebenarnya menghadapi tekanan finansial. Industri Web3, sebagai persimpangan teknologi dan keuangan, terkena dampak parah. PHK terjadi dengan cepat dan tanpa peringatan. Banyak karyawan menerima notifikasi tiba-tiba, akses sistem langsung diputus, dan komunikasi terputus. Kompensasi sering kali tidak memadai, dengan perusahaan menggunakan alasan seperti "kinerja buruk" atau mengarahkan karyawan untuk memilih "mengundurkan diri secara sukarela" guna menghindari pembayaran kompensasi. Tempat kerja menjadi sangat beracun. Budaya "rapat berdiri" yang ekstrem, jam kerja yang panjang tanpa batas, pengawasan ketat, dan tekanan konstan merusak moral. Perebutan kekuasaan di antara manajemen menciptakan ketidakstabilan, di mana karyawan menjadi korban. Mereka yang bukan bagian dari "kelompok dalam" sering dikucilkan atau dialihkan ke posisi pinggiran sebelum akhirnya dipecat. Model bisnis inti Web3 — biaya perdagangan dan pencatatan koin — sedang runtuh. Biaya pencatatan yang tinggi membunuh inovasi, kualitas proyek menurun, dan investor ritel menjauh. Peristiwa likuidasi besar-besaran pada Oktober lalu semakin menguras kepercayaan. Peningkatan platform derivatif on-chain juga memberikan tekanan pada pertukaran terpusat. Banyak pekerja yang di-PHK beralih ke industri AI, yang dilihat lebih cerah. Namun, mereka yang tetap di Web3 menghadapi diskriminasi dari industri tradisional, yang memandang rendah latar belakang kripto. Sementara itu, di dalam industri, persaingan tidak sehat seperti saling merebut karyawan dan perang gosip terus berlanjut, menguras energi dalam pasar yang menyusut. Musim dingin ini berbeda. Bukan hanya siklus biasa, tetapi akibat dari model bisnis yang tidak berkelanjutan, praktik buruk, dan hilangnya kepercayaan. Pertanyaannya tetap: kemunduran industri Web3 ini adalah kesalahan siapa?
