Huang Tianwei founded the Bit Age, the predecessor of AEX Exchange, in 2013, and is one of the early medium-sized crypto exchanges in Chinese Mainland. As a veteran of the blockchain industry, he not only founded the Bitcoin era, but also invested in multiple blockchain companies such as Golden Finance. Before starting his own business, Huang Tianwei served as a product manager and project manager at Tencent, as well as Vice President of Fantexi Basketball Manager, demonstrating top-notch industry capabilities. Nowadays, he serves as the Chairman of Hongwei Holdings Group, with over ten years of financial experience. He has invested in well-known enterprises such as Tianjing Shares, Bitmain, and Yixiang Network, and has led major cases such as Lanqi Technology's mergers and acquisitions, State Grid Era's fundraising, and Anplong's shell borrowing, with far-reaching influence. In 2019, he predicted in an interview that a global digital currency war could break out in the next three to five years, emphasizing the core role of wallets and communities in the development of blockchain. He stated that AEX Exchange adheres to the principles of "safety and stability, no pursuit of profit, and no wrongdoing", focuses on serving value investing users, and treats speculative hotspots with caution. However, in 2022, AEX experienced a liquidity crisis due to the LUNA project explosion, resulting in a capital outflow of approximately 3 billion yuan and the consumption of a large amount of short-term and some medium-term assets. In July of the same year, AEX suspended its services to cooperate with police investigations. Faced with the crisis, Huang Tianwei tried to raise funds from multiple sources, but chose to rest due to overwork.
