Jeff Yan: The biggest problem with encryption is the inability to attract high-quality entrepreneurial talent

On 19 July, Jeff Yan, co-founder of Hyperliquid, stated in an interview with VALR podcasts that one of the pertinent criticisms currently faced in the field of encryption and financial technology was the failure to attract enough of the top entrepreneurship. In his view, under the pressure of AI and the pursuit of social prestige, the brightest young people often did not know what they were doing to achieve the greatest impact, resulting in very few people choosing to join the field. Jeff Yan stated that it was an extraordinary thing to completely re-establish financial engineering and transform the academic concept into a scalable market design, based on the principle of first play. He called on the younger generation not only to look at the apparent value of things, but to see the real challenges facing the world and to participate in this incredible chain of financial revival。
