Focusing on blockchain industry innovation, DN.com makes an appearance at the 12th Global Blockchain Summit.

The 12th Global Blockchain Summit officially opened today. As a major industry event in the blockchain and Web3 sectors, the summit has attracted participants from diverse fields—including infrastructure, public chain ecosystems, digital assets, AI, investment institutions, and innovative projects—to jointly explore the future direction of the blockchain industry.

DN.com also attended the event to engage and learn alongside entrepreneurs, project teams, investment firms, and industry partners from around the globe, gaining firsthand insight into the latest industry developments.

Compared to previous years, a distinct shift in the industry's focus was palpable at this year's conference.

While discussions once centered on underlying technologies, on-chain performance, and competition among public blockchains, the buzzwords dominating this year's event were AI agents, stablecoins, RWAs (Real-World Assets), and user application scenarios.

In other words, the industry is gradually transitioning from being "technology-driven" to "application-driven."

One of the most prominent topics was the convergence of AI and Web3.

Across various forums and networking sessions, numerous projects showcased efforts to integrate AI capabilities with blockchain technology.

From AI agents and automated on-chain execution systems to AI-powered data analytics and intelligent collaboration networks, an increasing number of startups are exploring innovative product forms.

For the industry, this signals the start of a new cycle of innovation.

Every technological shift gives rise to new enterprises and business models; the emergence of these new companies signifies the creation of new brands.

For years, the blockchain industry has been seeking viable commercial use cases capable of large-scale adoption. With the growth of the global stablecoin ecosystem, an increasing number of enterprises are focusing on practical applications in cross-border payments, international settlements, and digital financial services.

Many conference attendees believe that stablecoins are poised to become a key piece of infrastructure connecting traditional commerce with the on-chain economy in the coming years.

This signals a clear trend: the blockchain industry is penetrating ever deeper into the real-world business landscape.

As companies begin to serve actual users and clients, the nature of market competition inevitably shifts.

In discussions with project leaders, we have observed that many teams are expanding their focus beyond mere technical development to encompass product operations, marketing, and global expansion strategies.

An entrepreneur shared that when their team was first established, their primary concern was whether the product would actually work;

however, as their user base grew, they began to consider another question: how to ensure users could accurately find them amidst a multitude of projects.

While this may seem simple, it is a challenge that many Web3 projects encounter during their growth.

We have also observed an increasing number of projects planning their brand names, website ecosystems, and global marketing strategies well in advance.

This is particularly true given the accelerating convergence of AI and Web3, which has led to a surge in the creation of new projects.

A strong brand name can be snapped up quickly, and domain names that align with a business's direction are becoming increasingly scarce.

More and more entrepreneurial teams are realizing that rather than waiting until their product matures to adjust their branding, it is far better to handle this planning in the project's early stages.

As a premier global domain trading platform, DN.com has long monitored developments in the blockchain, Web3, and artificial intelligence sectors.

Over the past few years, we have witnessed the industry shift from a hype-driven conceptual phase to one focused on practical application, and we have seen numerous outstanding projects evolve from startups into brands with global influence.

This Global Blockchain Summit demonstrates that the industry is entering a more pragmatic phase of development.

For entrepreneurs, this presents both challenges and opportunities.

Moving forward, DN.com will continue to track trends in global innovative industries and maintain close ties with entrepreneurs, investment firms, and industry partners. Together, we look forward to witnessing the new opportunities arising from the convergence of Web3 and AI, as well as the birth of the next generation of global brands.
