Speaking of which, it’s quite emotional. I've been following Gulu's entrepreneurship since the era of Bihu, starting from the initial MYKEY, to the later Orderbook Layer 2 protocol, and now to the pure Swap DEX.

It’s been almost 8 years.

From holding KEY to now DG, I’ve changed so many projects and experienced so many bull and bear markets that I can no longer remember.

Many people have left midway, which is normal. After all, this feeling of accompanying a run is like investing in the angel round of a company, and the outcome is not guaranteed.

Let’s take a look at the current landscape of the Swap track:

Uniswap is valued at 5.6 billion USD

Jupiter has also reached 1.4 billion

Pancake still has a market cap of 800 million supporting it

And what about DG?

It's still relatively unknown now, with a market cap of only 50 million USD (liquidity is also quite poor), and most people don't know what it does.

But it’s worth noting that although DG is still in the early stages, its goals are quite ambitious — aiming to connect BSC, ETH, and Solana chains simultaneously, and to build a pure intermediary light asset Swap platform with consensus across three chains. Without inherent liquidity and completely third-party matching, whether this model can succeed is hard to say.

However, if it can truly penetrate the DEX ecology of these three chains, to be honest, not to mention a market cap of 1 billion, even 10 billion is not a fantasy.

Perhaps DG is still too early, the product form is still quite 'raw', and the contract design is relatively simple. Maybe another five-year promise?

Do you think it still has a chance?

Will Gulu's wave be an 'arrival that is not absent' explosion?
