An Yiwu shop that’s less than 10 square meters sold for 17 million yuan, yet it only comes with the right to use it—and you still have to pay rent every year. Most people’s first reaction is that it’s too expensive, but what actually makes it valuable isn’t the size; it’s the location. Because it’s on the golden passageway with steady foot traffic and ongoing trading opportunities, the market is willing to pay a high premium for this scarce resource.

I think Web3 has a similar logic. Many people are used to focusing on token prices, but they overlook what truly determines value: what role the project plays within the broader ecosystem, and whether it can become the foundational infrastructure that other applications can’t do without.

That’s also why I’ve been paying sustained attention to @NewtonProtocol recently. As the Newton Mainnet Beta progresses, what it’s building isn’t just a new main network—it’s a foundational network that can support on-chain automated execution. In the future, whether it’s DeFi strategies, on-chain payments, or collaboration between AI agents, all these scenarios will require secure, trustworthy, and verifiable automated execution capabilities. And Newton Mainnet Beta is precisely providing the underlying support for those use cases.

Compared with those that only chase transaction speed, @NewtonProtocol focuses more on whether automated execution is safe, whether authorization is transparent, and whether the execution process is verifiable—so developers can build more complex applications, and ordinary users can feel confident using on-chain services. I believe this is the real key to determining ecosystem competitiveness.
