OKX’s founder and CEO, Star, stated on social media that cryptocurrency has moved from the Bitcoin phase (2008–2015) to the smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApp) phase (2016–2024). He said the experimental phase is over, and we are now entering the on-chain finance era (2025–present).
Looking ahead, Star projects that a substantial portion of the global economy will migrate on-chain over the next decade. He envisions internet-era financial services that are available around the clock, low-cost, and instant, as convenient as sending an email. Such services would rely on decentralized infrastructure and smart contracts to reduce friction.
Star’s outlook points to a broad shift toward on-chain finance as adoption grows worldwide, supported by scalable infrastructure and open protocols. The move could redefine how financial services are accessed and delivered.
