For the first time, we saw the explosive growth of digital assets. The digital asset market is no longer just a niche game amongst Bitcoin, Ethereum and their competitors. In 2021, the number of Google web searches for NFTs surpassed that of Bitcoin, indicating that people's attention is being diversified and more and more investors without technical or financial background are actively entering this market. With the rise of NFTs, GameFi and the Metaverse, it is foreseeable that a growing number of diverse digital asset categories will divide the market share of Bitcoin and Ethereum in the future. As a globalized and highly liquid asset class, digital assets will be favored by asset allocators to a greater extent. The exciting part is that what happened in 2021 is only the beginning. Just like the Big Bang's impact on the origin of a new multi-faceted reality touching across not only the network of "money" or "smart contracts", but increasingly all aspects of life, whether you call it a new metaverse or a universe.
