PANAMA CITY, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 22, 2010, programmer Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 Bitcoin for two pizzas. It was not only the first real-world Bitcoin transaction in crypto history but also the beginning of consensus-building in the Web3 world.
Sixteen years later, Bitcoin has become a major global asset, and Bitcoin Pizza Day has evolved into one of the most symbolic cultural totems in Web3.
As another Pizza Day arrived on May 22, HTX DAO transformed this holiday rooted in pure geek culture into a Web3 cultural celebration spanning five major cities worldwide. The event signaled a comprehensive upgrade in HTX's global service ecosystem while also reflecting a profound shift in the mindset of today's crypto investors.
Five-City Synergy: Upgrading Global Service Capabilities
If the early crypto world resembled a niche utopia built by internet natives, today's Web3 ecosystem has entered a truly global era. The boundaries of the industry have been redefined time and again, and crypto culture is moving from on-chain communities to the broader real world.
This time, HTX DAO chose a deeply community-driven approach possible, bringing the festivities to five key cities across the globe to create a borderless celebration of Web3 consensus, each with its own local flair.
Community Deliveries: Crypto-native, peer-to-peer, city-wide pizza deliveries brought hot pizzas personally delivered to community members.
Interactive Gatherings: DIY pizza feasts in bustling commercial districts allowed young Web3 enthusiasts to debate AI, on-chain finance, and the industry's upcoming major narratives while kneading dough and adding toppings.
Cultural Pop-Ups: Cultural pop-up events in parks featured customized Huobao installations and pizza boxes, which became some of the coolest viral attractions in town.
Premium VIP Experiences: High-end VIP Pizza Day celebrations blended exclusivity with community spirit. Participants enjoyed private Ferrari chauffeur services as well as an upscale dinner party featuring wine, steak, and pizza. As guests engaged in deep conversations, and ideas clashed over market trends, asset allocation, and industry cycles, the event preserved the freedom of crypto culture while showcasing a premium service model as crypto finance matures.
If the five-city offline celebration mirrored one side of HTX DAO's global ecosystem services, it also highlighted a broader shift in market sentiment across today's Web3 landscape.
At the HTX DAO Global Pizza Day event, community members engaged in detailed discussions centered around asset allocation and coin-margined yield generation. Interest in HTX Earn's APYs rose considerably, signaling that a clear turning point in the industry narrative has arrived.
From FOMO to Stable Yield: Crypto Finance Enters a New Asset Management Era
The crypto world has never been short of tales of overnight wealth. In the past few years, market sentiment was dominated by FOMO, with investors frantically chasing the next 100x token or 1,000x Alpha asset.
However, as the industry wades deeper into uncharted regulatory waters and faces ongoing macroeconomic volatility, the underlying investor psyche is quietly shifting. As the frenzy fades, veteran builders and crypto whales alike are shifting away from speculative hype and moving toward pragmatism.
This transformation is directly reflected in both real exchange data and user demand.
Recently, HTX DAO Ambassador and HTX spokesperson Molly revealed that, based on user benefit surveys and interviews with top-tier clients, APY Booster Coupons have become one of the most requested perks. This trend suggests that users' perception of crypto asset management is shifting, with a growing priority placed on stable yield generation.
In many ways, this is a sign that the crypto industry is maturing.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere at HTX DAO's global Pizza Day celebration aligns perfectly with this transition in market sentiment: the excitement is still alive, but rationality is returning; the dreams remain, but long-termism is becoming the new consensus.
The Pizza Will Be Gone, But Consensus Will Last Forever
From the very first real-world Bitcoin transaction 16 years ago to today's HTX DAO Global Pizza Day, this celebration serves not only as a heartfelt tribute to crypto history but also as a symbol of consensus. The evolution toward rational conversations regarding stable yield generation highlights a maturing market that deeply resonates with global users.
Sixteen years on, pizza flavors have changed, and market cycles have come and gone. Yet, HTX DAO's commitment to standing alongside its community members through every bull and bear market remains unchanged, as does the unwavering belief in a decentralized world and consensus around steady progress.

NEW YORK and SINGAPORE, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Alibaba International announced today that its AI-powered creative platform, PicCopilot, has integrated with Google Ads. This strategic collaboration enables small and medium e-commerce operators to create and launch high-conversion Google display ads directly within the PicCopilot platform.
Unlike general creative tools, PicCopilot leverages Alibaba International's e-commerce ecosystem to train its AI on real-world scenarios, ensuring the solution is examined and validated through actual market experience.
Small and medium e-commerce operators and direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands face mounting pressure to maintain consistent marketing presence across multiple digital channels while operating with limited resources. In the U.S. market, where approximately 40% of PicCopilot users are first-time entrepreneurs, the ability to leverage such professional insights is critical. Through this integration, businesses can now leverage a unified platform that simplifies the entire workflow. For instance, PicCopilot's "Viral Video Maker" can generate 8-10 professional video options in just 2-3 minutes from a single product image—a process that traditionally takes 2-3 days.
"Our goal is to evolve AI from a simple efficiency tool into a growth-driving engine for merchants," said Yang Guang, Vice President of Alibaba International and Lead of Alibaba Design. "By integrating PicCopilot with Google Ads, we are democratizing enterprise-level creative marketing tools, allowing even the smallest sellers to leverage market-validated approaches to drive their business forward."
PicCopilot provides unique, "one-click" AI applications specifically designed to drive e-commerce sales. This includes industry-first video solutions for social content, such as the Viral Video Maker and Fashion Reels—specialized tools for apparel and footwear that transform static images into engaging marketing assets. Additionally, the platform's AI Product Page Design Generator allows merchants to create high-quality, ready-to-use storefront visuals, making professional-grade marketing accessible to businesses of all sizes.
Through this Google Ads integration, PicCopilot advances its vision of serving as an intelligent marketing "middle-ware" that connects the entire marketing pipeline—from strategy and creativity to distribution and optimization. This advancement enables smaller merchants to compete effectively through intelligent technology, setting a new standard for AI-driven e-commerce growth.
