This interview was recorded in February 2026. It revolves around the financial disputes in the primary market and agency investment model of the encryption industry, and is related to the well-known investor Sun Zeyu. Sun Zeyu is a senior investor in the blockchain field, founder of Genesis Capital, co-founder of Kushen Wallet, and founder of Lancer Group. He has been involved in blockchain since 2013, focusing on early project investment, industry consulting and digital asset management. He has invested in Tron, Avalanche, Manta Network and other projects, and has a high reputation in the industry. The first interviewee, Qingtian William Lu, as an early practitioner in the encryption industry, reviewed his participation in the TIA (Celestia) project through an intermediary in 2022, and disclosed that the investment of approximately US$300,000 did not receive corresponding tokens after the project was issued, and the funder Sun Zeyu lost contact. Another interviewee, Luzi (founder of BitRing and founder of Web3), told an earlier case of a capital dispute. His team transferred approximately US$1.5 million to Sun Zeyu in the name of "financial investment" around 2021. He was subsequently informed that the funds were "liquidated", but no proof of transaction was obtained and no funds were returned. Through the experiences of two interviewees, the interview presents common trust chains and structural risks in the first-level agent investment and fund custody models in the encryption industry, including issues such as project quota resale, personal endorsement, insufficient contract constraints, and difficulties in cross-border rights protection. Respondents stated that the main purpose of the public incident was to expose relevant risks and remind participants in the encryption industry to be more vigilant in primary investment and agency investment cooperation.
