Dr. Han at WebX 2025 Tokyo: Bitcoin’s Rise Means CEX and DEX Must Complement to Drive Web3 Mass Adoption

At WebX 2025 in Tokyo, Gate CEO Dr. Han outlined the strategic roles of centralized and decentralized venues in Web3 adoption, describing CEX as the global capital gateway and DEX as the on-chain finance and innovation engine.

Dr. Han cited data showing a global crypto user base near 700 million and a market capitalization around $3.02 trillion. He noted DEX accounts for approximately 23% of spot volume, while security and regulatory challenges persist across DEX and Web3 platforms.

Highlighting Gate’s multi-jurisdictional licenses and its licensed Japanese exchange acquisition, Dr. Han emphasized that scalable growth requires robust compliance frameworks and that sustainable progress will come from how CEX and DEX complement one another.
