At the event, the Rockets and Ant Pool exchanged gifts. The Rockets prepared gifts such as signed jerseys for Ant Pool, and Ant Pool sent customized commemorative Bitcoin and other digital currency peripheral products to the Rockets.

This event is also a special gift from the Rockets to the fans. Many Rockets fans and followers rushed to the event site to cheer for their idol.

Gerald Green said: "Chinese fans are very enthusiastic. I am very happy to come to China this time. All the partners in Ant Pool are also very great."

Green and Eli enthusiastically interacted with fans and gave out gifts such as signed basketballs. The fans were very excited to see Green and Eli in person, get close to their idols, and get autographs and photos. At the end of the event, everyone raised their glasses and shouted "Go Rockets! Go AntPool!", wishing the Rockets to win the championship in the next season and AntPool's global business to prosper.

Both the Rockets and Ant Pool are looking forward to this cooperation. "We are very honored to be the bridge for Ant Pool's business growth in the United States." John Crowley, Vice President of Corporate Development of the Rockets, said, "The Rockets have always wanted to maintain technological leadership both on and off the court, and Ant Pool's strength in cryptocurrency has made this an extraordinary cooperation."

"The Houston Rockets are legendary around the world and a very popular team in China. Partnering with the Houston Rockets basketball club gives us a great way to continue our growth momentum in the United States," said Li Haijiao, Overseas Operations Manager of AntPool. "As the global cryptocurrency industry continues to develop, it will become increasingly important for AntPool to guide consumers to understand and adopt digital currencies. This is an exciting collaboration, and we welcome Rockets fans and people traveling to Houston to visit our display at the Toyota Center and learn more about the technology that is changing the world."
