Let's review together the core content, background significance, and industry impact of the "Conflux Tree Graph Digital Finance and Ecosystem Development Conference" held in Hong Kong in May 2026.

2026 Conflux Historic Review and Outlook
One month ago (May 13-15), at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center and the University of Hong Kong, the "Conflux Tree Graph Digital Finance and Ecosystem Development Conference" was not only an annual event for the Tree Graph (Conflux) ecosystem but also a key milestone showcasing China’s independent public chain technology’s five-year accumulation, technological breakthroughs, and future vision to the world.

The theme of this conference, "Braving the wind and rain, towering trees stand tall; gathering in Hong Kong to create a new tide," aptly summarizes Tree Graph’s journey from theoretical concepts taught in Tsinghua classrooms to becoming a global Web3 infrastructure.

1. Conference Overview: High standards, practical topics, broad ecosystem
This conference was jointly organized by Conflux Hong Kong and the Shanghai Tree Graph Blockchain Research Institute, with support from multiple parties including the Policy Group of the Hong Kong SAR Government.

It gathered Web3 builders, digital technology developers, financial investors, industrialists from around the world, as well as prominent figures from academia and industry, such as Hong Kong Financial Development Council Vice Chairman Fung Wah Kin, Hong Kong University Vice President Wang Yang, and Fudan University International Finance School Deputy Dean Gao Huasheng.

The core topics of the conference focused closely on three directions:
- Integration and Opportunities in Digital Finance: Exploring how digital assets can deeply integrate with traditional financial systems amid clearer regulations and market friendliness.
- Web3 in the AI Agent Era: Discussing how blockchain, as a "technology of production relations," can build trust and settlement foundations as artificial intelligence becomes a new "economic entity."
- Hong Kong’s Unique Role and Advantages: In-depth exploration of Hong Kong’s role as a "two-way gateway" connecting Mainland China and the world, and its policy and market advantages in digital finance and Web3.

2. Core Releases and Technological Breakthroughs: A comprehensive display of Tree Graph 3.0 era
The conference served as a showcase for Tree Graph’s technological strength and ecological achievements.
From the theoretical paper in 2018, to the mainnet launch in 2020, and now, Tree Graph has completed the leap from 1.0 to 3.0.

1. Performance indicators that astonish:
Global Coverage
Tree Graph’s public chain has been stable for over five years, growing into a global blockchain network covering more than 60 countries across five continents.

Performance Leap
With 8 major upgrades and 42 version iterations, supporting over ten thousand cross-border nodes worldwide and reaching up to 15,000 TPS (transactions per second), it has achieved astonishing throughput, thoroughly solving blockchain performance bottlenecks in large-scale, high-latency wide-area internet, maintaining top-tier global public chain performance.

Interconnectivity
Digital assets are interconnected with 28 major public chains worldwide, and on-chain stablecoins connect a global liquidity network exceeding $180 billion.

2. Massive ecosystem data:
- Total on-chain accounts surpass 25 million.
- Cumulative transaction count exceeds 178 million.
- Over 20k deployed smart contracts.
These data points indicate that Tree Graph’s public chain has evolved from a technical prototype into a truly inclusive Web3 infrastructure capable of supporting massive users and applications.

3. Dual-driven by compliance and innovation:
- China’s only compliant public chain
Tree Graph is currently China’s only public blockchain infrastructure that complies with regulations and serves the "Belt and Road" initiative, giving it a unique identity advantage in global competition.

- Independent technological innovation
Its core Tree-Graph consensus algorithm breaks the traditional chain structure, achieving a groundbreaking balance among the "impossible triangle" (decentralization, security, performance) for the first time.

3. Deep coupling of AI and blockchain
The most forward-looking topic at the conference was repeatedly emphasized by Dr. Long Fan, founder of Tree Graph: "Establishing a credit mechanism for AI agents." He provided a profound interpretation of the conference theme. AI Agents become "economic entities," and blockchain becomes the "trust foundation."

Background:
As AI Agents (artificial intelligence entities) gain autonomous perception, planning, tool invocation, and economic decision-making capabilities, they are no longer just tools but may become "economic entities" capable of placing orders, signing contracts, and holding assets. This presents new challenges to traditional financial infrastructure.

Core issue:
Dr. Long Fan proposed that when an agent can make economic decisions, human financial infrastructure must answer: "How should the financial rights of machine entities be defined? Does the machine need a world where it can maintain trustworthiness?"

Solution:
Blockchain just provides this "world of trust."
Whether data, code, or capital flows, as long as their generation, invocation, and circulation processes are fully recorded on-chain, they form verifiable, traceable, and tamper-proof historical records.
This provides the underlying trust for autonomous collaboration, payments, and task division of AI Agents.

Tree Graph’s Role:
As a compliant public chain, Tree Graph positions itself as building a trusted payment and settlement layer in the AI era, providing compliant and efficient on-chain infrastructure for AI agents’ economic activities.

From "Data Processing" to "Relationship Reconstruction":
Dr. Long Fan believes that AI gives machines a "brain," while blockchain endows machines with "credit."
The combination of the two is a collaborative evolution of productivity (AI) and production relations (blockchain).
From this perspective, Tree Graph is not only building a faster public chain but also laying a "highway" for trust and value flow in the upcoming era of intelligent networks.

4. Ecosystem cooperation and Hong Kong strategy: rooted in Hong Kong, connecting the world
During the conference, a series of major collaborations injected new momentum into Tree Graph’s global ecosystem.

Three major signing projects:
Conflux Tree Graph signed cooperation agreements with One Technology (Middle East Web3 digital consumer ecosystem), Ningbo Lianchuang Yongjun Private Equity Fund ("Web3+AI" industry innovation), and Zhongtong Sunshine Insurance Brokerage Co., Ltd. (insurance empowerment based on BSIM cards).
These collaborations cover key areas such as Middle East expansion, technological integration, and financial insurance, demonstrating Tree Graph’s diversified ecosystem expansion capabilities.

Hong Kong’s strategic hub role:
The choice of Hong Kong as the venue was no accident.
Participants unanimously agree that Hong Kong’s status as the world’s largest offshore RMB market, its free international capital flow, and a more forward-looking regulatory framework make it a key gateway for China’s Web3 industry to connect globally.

Tree Graph clearly stated that it will attract on-chain ecosystem enterprises to gather in Hong Kong and deepen industry-university-research cooperation with institutions like the University of Hong Kong, helping Hong Kong build an international digital financial innovation hub.

Conclusion:
Looking back at this conference in May 2026, we see that Conflux is no longer just a blockchain technology project; it has grown into a comprehensive Web3 infrastructure platform with top-tier technology, a vast ecosystem, clear compliance pathways, and a well-defined future strategy.
