A well-known industry insider recently shared a story from the industry’s past: as early as 2013, a founder who later established Manus was still a university intern, at that time joining the early Bitcoin project YiBit. Over more than a decade, from initial contact with Bitcoin to now starting a business in the AI field, this founder’s trajectory somewhat reflects the evolution of the entire Web3 industry—from simple digital asset exploration to deep integration with AI technology. Seeing a group of practitioners who were deeply involved in the crypto space early on and are still driving industry innovation today demonstrates their long-term commitment to blockchain and the digital economy. Over ten years, the industry has gone through multiple cycles, and these steadfast pioneers are writing their own stories through concrete actions. From Bitcoin to AI, they have witnessed many chapters in the crypto world.
