Earlier this year, I almost decided not to participate in speaking conferences anymore. Honestly, just almost.
Over the past two years, it felt like all topics were repetitive, old stories, and the current crypto world is really a bit boring. Until last week, the day of collaboration with the Red Bull racing team. Initially, I planned to spend 5 minutes summarizing our collaboration last year, sharing the success story of the digital collection activity “IN THE MOMENT” with other sponsors. The reality went like this: 🕒 At first, they only told me I could speak for 2 minutes, I didn’t expect much 🔗 I intentionally linked the content to this morning’s sharing to make it more relevant 😄 By the way, I opened with a few familiar jokes ( to help lighten the mood ) 🗣️ All in simple English, without technical terms or jargon Unexpectedly, after finishing, many partners proactively came to say they really enjoyed my sharing part, felt I spoke very well. Of course, among them, there were definitely some polite compliments, courteous praise. But they didn’t know that these responses reignited in me the fire to continue sharing. For many of these friends, I might have already spoken too much. But for 94% of people worldwide who have never truly been exposed to cryptocurrencies, what I said might be the first time they hear about crypto — just like the partners from finance, telecommunications, luxury, automotive, mobility, hotel, lifestyle, and consumer electronics fields of the Red Bull racing team. The path to mainstream acceptance is still long, but moments like this will suddenly remind people: it’s still worth continuing.
