Three years ago, my dad fell ill, and that was the darkest moment of my life.

Because of anxiety and confusion, I often found myself daydreaming on the subway, not even realizing when I missed my stop. At that time, I hadn't started being a KOL, and my Twitter account was just a no-follower personal account.

In despair, I sent a private message to Sister Yi, and to my surprise, she actually replied.

Can you imagine? The co-founder of the world's largest exchange replied to an insignificant retail investor. For her, empathizing with retail investors is her instinct; rooting in the community is her daily routine.

Last year, @Yi He mentioned tears in Space, precisely because she understands the struggles of retail investors so well that she stands up repeatedly during market panic. The so-called "market protection" is not just about protecting the coin price, but also the hopes of countless retail investors.

Before Binance appeared, the crypto world was like a chaotic wilderness, and cutting leeks was brazenly justified.

It was Sister Yi and @CZ who raised the industry threshold — from the 2017 "9.4" when even losing tens of millions had to refund users at the issue price, to later establishing the SAFU fund to safeguard user assets. What she redefined was not the listing criteria but the conscience of this industry.

This circle is too realistic; it's easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to provide timely help. When you're thriving, everyone comes to you; when you're in trouble, people kick you when you're down.

But Sister Yi is different; she has an extraordinarily rare sense of inclusiveness.

Even if you once attacked her due to misunderstanding, or were even locked in a "little black room," as long as you are willing to communicate, she is still willing to bring you back, listen to your voice, and might even pay attention to you. Sister Yi is probably the CEO of an exchange who pays the most attention to users.

In these years of being a KOL, I have seen too many people and things. In my heart, Sister Yi is not only a big figure but also a ray of light I have seen during my darkest moments.
