Taiwan’s HOYA BIT has been awarded the honor of the most innovative cryptocurrency exchange. Founder Peng Yun-Hsien has introduced an AI agent framework, focusing on serving newcomers who lack financial backgrounds and time, hoping to lower barriers through artificial intelligence and provide personalized services to realize inclusive finance.
(March 26, 2026, Taipei News) The 9th “Hit AI & Blockchain” Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain Industry Summit concluded successfully today (26th), with Taiwan’s cryptocurrency exchange HOYA BIT awarded the title of “2026 Most Innovative Cryptocurrency Exchange” by the 8th Blockchain Value Authority List, affirming HOYA BIT’s leading position in technological innovation and marking the official entry of Taiwan’s cryptocurrency industry into a new era driven by AI Agents.
HOYA BIT’s Strategic Office Vice President Lin Yi-Chi shared upon receiving the award: “When international tech giants like Microsoft and Google announce the comprehensive deployment of AI Agents, upgrading artificial intelligence from an auxiliary tool to an intelligent partner capable of ‘autonomously planning and executing tasks,’ founder Peng Yun-Hsien foresees the profound impact of this revolution on the financial industry, embedding the core architecture of AI Agents into Taiwan’s cryptocurrency trading platform, embracing this wave of new financial technology.”

HOYA BIT’s forward-looking layout coincides with the historic restructuring of the global financial order. The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) has officially announced the development of a tokenized securities platform and is promoting a new era of 24/7 trading and real-time settlement for U.S. stocks; Nasdaq and Cboe have successively submitted proposals for round-the-clock trading, and the market that “never closes” has become a global consensus. On the regulatory front, the U.S. “GENIUS Act” establishes a federal-level regulatory framework for stablecoins, while the “Stablecoin Payment Act” provides a clear legal status and compliance path for digital assets. The boundaries between traditional markets and digital assets have become blurred; cryptocurrencies are no longer just an investment option but the core backbone supporting the future global real-time settlement and high liquidity financial structure.
In the face of this irreversible paradigm shift, HOYA BIT is not focused on how to capture market share but directly addresses the core issue: “When this wave is confirmed to arrive, which Taiwanese will be excluded once again?”
HOYA BIT founder Peng Yun-Hsien sees four groups of Taiwanese who have always stood on the edge of financial services:
“We serve not only those familiar with cryptocurrencies but also those who have been difficult to fully care for by financial services in the past.” HOYA BIT founder Peng Yun-Hsien stated that allowing this group of people to enter the world of cryptocurrencies with low barriers and low learning costs is the true value of HOYA BIT’s existence.
HOYA BIT founder Peng Yun-Hsien pointed out that the significance of AI for HOYA BIT has never been about “adding functions,” but rather about driving the core leverage for the next stage of growth. Through AI, HOYA BIT can provide broader, deeper, more detailed, and more immediate services and companionship, achieving personalized segmented services for different levels and needs. “Our goal is to let HOYA BIT transition from a trading platform to a part of Taiwan’s digital financial infrastructure,” ensuring that Taiwanese investors do not miss out on this global financial transformation.
