Recently, most people have probably been inundated with various year-end reports, from Douban's annual rankings to increasingly personalized cloud music year-end reports, and to Taobao's annual summaries. Through these visuals or data, they showcase the memories and fragments of our lives over the past year.

For those of us in the crypto industry, perhaps a year-end summary is even more meaningful. It not only represents our performance in the market over the past year but also lays the groundwork for the new year.

Recently, major exchanges have successively released their own annual reports. Taking OKX as an example, one can see the trading situation over the year in the report, including asset scale, revenue situation, trading frequency, risk control level, and sensitivity to industry trends, thus obtaining a data radar for the past year.

If you are a trader, it might be worthwhile to take a close look at this radar chart, as it can visually show what level you have demonstrated in the industry over the past year.

Especially the trend sensitivity; the market did not experience the much-anticipated altcoin bull run over the past year, only a rotation in certain sectors, making the grasp of trends all the more crucial.

Another important dimension is risk control. If one can maintain a good level of risk control, it is highly likely to avoid the massive crash of 1011.

These are all reflections that an annual report can bring us and can serve as the beginning of our annual summary.

Additionally, it might be a good idea to take a moment to write about your contributions to the industry over the past year. After all, aside from the market conditions, many interesting stories have unfolded in the industry. Through these stories, we can see how we participated in this narrative and reflect on what narratives we may have missed.

For industry entrepreneurs, the founder's annual summary is particularly important. It can serve as a public annual summary for their company and also as a form of brand building and communication.

Just like OKX CEO Star wrote a summary article titled "2025: Steadily Moving Towards Financial Freedom," I felt quite moved after reading it.

Especially the title; who in the industry doesn't aspire to financial freedom? Even He Yi, co-founder of BN, once said, "I will retire after making a billion." However, how to steadily move towards financial freedom is a test for both businesses and individuals.

After experiencing the bloodbath of 1011, I increasingly feel the importance of this statement: "Financial freedom is often misunderstood. It does not mean having no rules, but rather having the freedom of choice, and these choices are supported by a tested and effective system." (Excerpt from Star's year-end summary)

If all participants can pursue financial freedom and industry development under the rules, perhaps such epic liquidations would not occur, nor would they affect the progress of the industry, and certainly would not bring harm to anyone. After all, during an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

2026 is about to unfold. Regardless of what we experienced in the past year, we still need to pack our bags and head towards the future. The crypto industry continues to develop, and even those who have already achieved financial freedom are still building. What about us?

Finally, to bid farewell to 2025 with a phrase: When you truly desire something, the entire universe conspires to help you achieve your wish.

See you next year.
