PANews reported on August 23 that the 2025 Asia FinTech Awards ceremony came to a successful conclusion on the evening of August 22. Justin Sun, global advisor of Huobi HTX and founder of TRON, won the "Innovator of the Year" award in recognition of his outstanding contributions to blockchain technology, Web3 infrastructure construction, and global financial inclusion.

As one of the most forward-thinking leaders in the crypto industry, Justin Sun not only successfully drove the vigorous development of the TRON ecosystem and the IPO of TRON Inc., but also, as a global advisor to Huobi HTX, helped the platform achieve both user growth and transaction volume growth. In April of this year, Sun became the first Chinese entrepreneur since Jack Ma to grace the global cover of Forbes, garnering global attention for the crypto industry. In August, he completed a space flight aboard a Blue Origin spacecraft, sending the Web3 narrative into space and helping the industry further break through its boundaries.
