Huobi HTX 2025 New Year Live Stream: Focusing on the People's Exchange and Global Expansion, Ushering in a New Chapter for the Crypto Market
AI and Meme could become the key narratives in the crypto space for 2025.
Navigating Web3 tides with focused insights
Recently, Huobi HTX hosted its "Hello 2025" New Year's Eve livestream event. During the event, Hexsix of Huobi HTX reviewed key milestones achieved by HTX in 2024 and shared the platform’s strategic goals for 2025. Additionally, several crypto KOLs including 0xLeon and DaDa summarized their trading experiences from the past year and discussed emerging trends and investment opportunities in the crypto space for the year ahead.
Recapping Huobi HTX 2024: Trust, Security, Innovation, and Wealth Creation
During the livestream, Hexsix highlighted that in 2024, Huobi HTX made significant progress in product innovation, security and compliance, ecosystem expansion, and wealth generation. Supported by HTX DAO, the platform advanced steadily in building a decentralized ecosystem, bringing the vision of a "People's Exchange" into sharper focus and further solidifying its industry leadership.
● Journey of Confidence: Rebuilding User Trust
Hesix revealed that in December 2024, Huobi HTX launched its "Journey of Confidence" tour across four cities, aiming to engage directly with users and rebuild trust. Throughout the tour, Huobi HTX collaborated with the DOGE community, traditional institutions, and emerging capital to discuss industry opportunities and challenges, forging new partnerships and strengthening existing ones to build mutual trust.
● Security First: Comprehensive Protection for User Assets
Hesix emphasized that rather than passively accepting risks in the crypto world, Huobi HTX took proactive measures to safeguard user assets.
Specific initiatives include: 1) Partnering with global security leaders such as Fireblocks and Cobo to conduct comprehensive audits of every blockchain and product detail on the platform; 2) Publishing Merkle tree proof-of-reserves monthly throughout 2024, maintaining a reserve ratio above 100% all year; and 3) Introducing features like contract margin mechanisms and anti-theft protections, with a full 100% compensation guarantee for any fund losses caused by platform-side issues.
● Technology-Driven Product Innovation: Leading Industry Trends
In 2024, driven by technological innovation, Huobi HTX launched a series of industry-leading products, including Trading Mining, Liquidity Mining, Lend-to-Mine, and Liquid Restaking.
In February 2024, Huobi HTX became the first to introduce Restaking functionality, enabling users to manage assets with higher security and efficiency. This was later upgraded to YuBao, allowing users to earn an annualized yield of 6% without barriers or lockups—simply by holding funds in their U-margined futures accounts, regardless of whether they hold open positions.
The "Lend-to-Mine" program, launched in November 2024, focused on USDT flexible lending, offering users a simple way to share in platform growth simply through regular lending activities. Meanwhile, Trading Mining and Liquidity Mining attracted users via subsidies, boosting platform liquidity and creating a win-win scenario for both users and the platform.
Notably, SunPump, an ecosystem project launched by Huobi HTX, quickly became a major talking point in the industry and sparked a wave of Meme token enthusiasm.
● Content Excellence: Professional Research Guiding the Market
Hesix noted during the livestream that Huobi HTX has a dedicated research team that provided accurate market analysis and investment insights throughout the year. For example, Huobi HTX was among the first exchanges in the industry to predict that BTC would reach $100,000 in 2024. The platform also proactively positioned itself in the Base and TON ecosystems, successfully capturing key market opportunities.
● Focusing on High-Quality Assets: Driving Wealth Effects
According to Hesix, Huobi HTX listed 218 high-quality projects in 2024, spanning popular sectors such as DePIN, RWA, and Meme tokens. Of these, 171 were globally exclusive launches. Tokens like ACT and BAN saw maximum gains of 12,079.49% and 4,445.45% respectively after listing, demonstrating strong growth momentum.
She emphasized that going forward, Huobi HTX will continue refining its listing strategy, rapidly identifying promising assets under the “Sun哥's Selection” standard, while deepening community engagement and listening closely to user needs. The goal is to realize the vision of a "People's Exchange" and reinforce its position as the “preferred platform for premium assets.”
Looking Ahead to 2025: Building the People's Exchange and Advancing Global Expansion
Hesix believes that 2025 will be a pivotal year for accelerated development, continuous technological iteration, and widespread adoption of innovation across the crypto industry—presenting unprecedented opportunities for all participants. As one of the most committed builders in the space, Huobi HTX plans to focus on the following areas:
1. People's Exchange: In 2025, Huobi HTX will advance community governance and DAO development through the HTX DAO forum and an evolving governance council, progressively realizing the vision of a people-owned exchange.
2. Global Expansion: Huobi HTX will actively expand into global markets, with particular emphasis on CIS regions, showcasing its brand comprehensively and creating more opportunities for business growth and users.
3. Integration of Technology and Blockchain: Focus will be placed on the AI+Crypto sector, including conceptual AI applications, Memes, and the convergence of AI Agents with Intents and smart contracts.
4. $HTX: The economic model and community governance framework for $HTX will be gradually enhanced, with long-term value accrual strategies in place to prepare for potential explosive growth.
AI and Memes Could Be Key Narratives in Crypto for 2025
Toward the end of the livestream, crypto KOLs including 0xLeon and DaDa analyzed upcoming trends and investment opportunities for the next year, generally agreeing that AI and Memes will likely become central narratives in the crypto space in 2025.
0xLeon argued that AI+Crypto is not only a challenge to traditional finance but also a profound disruption to the current structure and rules of the crypto market. As technology advances, AI could drive the crypto market toward greater intelligence, decentralization, and automation.
DaDa stated that Memes represent a new and inevitable form of consensus-building within Web3 communities. While 2024 witnessed both the explosive rise and collapse of many Meme projects, the Meme phenomenon remains alive—especially amid the increasingly volatile and dynamic "golden era" of cryptocurrencies following the U.S. election. Participants must strengthen their ability to research projects and manage risk effectively.
