The digital-asset industry's biggest challenge is its failure to attract strong talent, Odaily reported on July 18.
Jeff Yan, founder of Hyperliquid (HYPE), said one of the biggest issues facing the digital-asset and fintech industries is that they are not securing enough top-tier talent. He said the artificial intelligence boom and broader social perceptions have pushed many talented young people to weigh where they can create the most value, and few are choosing the digital-asset industry.
Yan urged the industry to step up its efforts to recruit talent. He said the digital-asset industry is not simply an investment market, but a field that is redesigning the financial system from the ground up. He added that he hopes young founders will focus on solving real-world problems and take part in developing and innovating in on-chain finance.
