However, AI is expected to become an important gateway connecting users with the Web3 ecosystem. When discussing the combination of AI and trading, Dr. Han mentioned that AI can help users efficiently acquire information, analyze market signals, and assist in decision-making, but it still cannot completely replace human judgment. "AI + human intelligence" will become a more effective approach in the future.Dr. Han also pointed out that Gate is continuously utilizing AI to optimize product experiences, reducing users' learning costs through intelligent tools, and encouraging more users to enter the Web3 world. Currently, Gate is building an AI product system around the Intelligent Web3 strategy, which includes Gate AI, GateClaw, and Gate for AI Agent, accelerating the integration of AI technology into the trading ecosystem. In the future, Gate will further lower the barriers to using Web3 through intelligent products and services, enhance user experience, and drive more users into an open and intelligent Web3 world.

According to a report by CryptoSlate, BitMine's Ethereum staking and validation business heavily relies on the third-party operator Ethereum Tower. According to the relevant management service agreement, Ethereum Tower holds an irrevocable interest of 2% in MAVAN, and the initial term of the agreement lasts for up to 10 years; if BitMine terminates the cooperation early under non-specific default circumstances, the other party can still choose to continue receiving revenue sharing for the remaining term or receive a one-time compensation according to a formula.Documents show that in the three months ending May 31, 2026, BitMine's staking and validation business revenue was $45.743 million, accounting for 98.3% of total revenue of $46.535 million. During the same period, the company held approximately 5.4169 million ETH, valued at about $10.856 billion, of which approximately 4.7187 million had been used for staking. The report suggests that this means BitMine's revenue performance is not only dependent on Ethereum staking returns but is also significantly constrained by third-party management relationships and potential termination costs.
