When a little monkey named Punch tightly hugs his toy "Ora-mama", the hearts of people around the world are touched. This Japanese macaque, born in the Ichikawa City Zoo in Japan and abandoned by his mother, has become the center of global attention due to his tenacity and moving bond. Now, this interspecies resilience is closely connected to the altruistic heart of Huobi HTX.

A Warm Guardian from the Crypto World

In February 2026, Huobi HTX global advisor Sun Yuchen officially announced on his X that he would donate $100,000 to Punch to improve its living environment at Ichikawa City Zoo, support its growth, and appoint Punch as the "official brand ambassador of Huobi HTX".

Punch's story perfectly illustrates the power of perseverance and companionship, touching the softest parts of people’s hearts. Born weak, Punch was soon abandoned by his birth mother. Lacking necessary nurturing and guidance, Punch struggled to integrate into the monkey group and was isolated by his peers. In this lonely growing environment, an orangutan toy gifted by the zoo staff was seen by Punch as a manifestation of his mother, becoming his spiritual anchor. Little Punch hugs this toy all day long, and even when bullied by other monkeys, he would run back to tightly embrace his "mom". This video went viral worldwide, making Punch one of the most touching animal stories of the year.

“Punch, the bravest little macaque, has conquered the hearts of the world,” Sun Yuchen stated. “We are deeply moved by his resilience. To ensure he receives the best care at Ichikawa City Zoo, Huobi HTX promises to donate $100,000 to support his growth and the construction of his home.”

Why appoint Punch as the brand ambassador? The answer lies in his story.

Despite his tragic background and rejection from his peers, Punch still shows vibrant vitality, which resonates highly with Huobi HTX and many Web3 builders who persist and thrive in the industry wave; during his growth, his toy "mom" provided him with immense spiritual strength, supporting his belief in life, and Huobi HTX hopes to be that trustworthy and dependable "companion" — whether for tens of millions of users worldwide or for those in need around the globe.
