Vitalik Urges Chinese-Speaking Builders to Leverage Hardware Advantages and Open-Source AI for Cross-Domain Innovation

Gate News message, April 21 — The Ethereum Foundation-supported ETH HK Hub (Ethereum Hong Kong Community Center) held its opening ceremony today in Hong Kong’s West Kowloon district. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and Ethereum Foundation Chair Aya Miyaguchi attended the event and participated in a fireside chat with Hong Kong Legislative Council member Paul Tse.

In his keynote address, Vitalik advised Chinese-speaking builders to return to Ethereum’s core principles and fully leverage hardware advantages, open-source AI talent, and zero-knowledge (ZK) technology to explore innovative solutions across domains. He noted that each wave of new technology presents an opportunity for a new generation of developers to level the playing field with global leaders, enabling the Chinese-speaking community to maintain forward-thinking perspectives and drive ecosystem development through innovation.

The launch of ETH HK Hub underscores the Ethereum Foundation’s commitment to the Asia-Pacific community and marks Hong Kong’s strategic significance in Ethereum’s global landscape.
