“Live-streamed Store Tours” injects fresh momentum into the final stage of the 2025 Yiwugo Top 10 Vendors Competition

YIWU, China, Dec. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Yiwugo.com, the official website of the Yiwu Commodity Market, is the largest commodity wholesale market in the world. As December reaches its midpoint, the results of the 2025 Yiwugo Top 10 Vendors Competition are soon to be announced. Which ten outstanding businesses will rise above thousands of competitors across Yiwu to become the year’s leaders in sales, reputation, and brand influence? Which industry heavyweights will distinguish themselves as frontrunners within their respective sectors? With the competition entering its final phase, a number of Yiwugo’s strongest contenders have already come into focus, including several “dark horses”.

Wang Yanqing has led Yiwu Jiayan Cosmetics Co., Ltd. for more than a decade, gaining deep expertise across the entire industry chain—from raw-material formulation for perfumes and nail polish to product design and marketing. This extensive experience has enabled him to precisely anticipate consumer preferences in markets across the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and South America. In 2020, Jiayan Cosmetics’ Yiwugo storefront attracted a new customer from South America, who noted that they had evaluated numerous merchants on the platform before ultimately choosing the company and placing an inaugural order totaling an entire shipping container of goods.

Jiayan Cosmetics’ strong customization capabilities, short response times, and strict alignment with local fragrance preferences have earned the company deep trust among overseas buyers. Over the following three years, the South American customer’s annual order volume increased by more than 40%, establishing them as one of Jiayan Cosmetics’ key agents in the region. By combining sharp insights into niche overseas markets with an agile supply chain, Wang has constantly refined the company’s product portfolio, driving five consecutive years of steady growth on Yiwugo. By 2025, the South American customer’s annual orders volume had surpassed 10 million, and Jiayan Cosmetics—powered by exponential growth in cross-border demand—secured a leading position on the Yiwugo Top 10 Vendors list, setting a new benchmark for China’s cosmetics export industry.

Wang noted that the company is working to build Jiayan into a highly competitive global brand. Jiayan Cosmetics already holds multiple international quality and safety certifications, and it sells well in mid- to high-end markets such as Japan and France. Moving forward, the company will expand its product categories starting with pet fragrances, elevate its brand identity, and leverage platforms like Yiwugo to reach an even wider global audience.

While Jiayan Cosmetics may not rank among China’s largest enterprises, real strength in today’s rapidly evolving global marketplace lies not in scale, but in the ability to continually innovate, upgrade products, shape industry trends, and define market aesthetics. It is unwavering quality and service that ultimately lead the market. Another prime example is Wawabao Toys Firm, a company that has led its industry for more than three decades.

Jin Aifen has worked in the plush toy industry for over 30 years, and her daughter has now joined the business, bringing youthful energy and fresh perspectives to Wawabao’s day-to-day operations. The company rolls out numerous new products every month. Just last month, it completed the delivery of its 2026 Valentine’s Day–themed plush dolls, and it is currently developing and producing new items inspired by the FIFA World Cup and relevant themes.

Jin noted that the past two years had witnessed a remarkable surge in customers from South America, with nearly every buyer registering a 30%-40% increase in orders—underscoring the tremendous effort invested by Wawabao Toys Firm. She added that while long-pile and rabbit-fur fabrics once dominated the plush toy industry, the company has since undertaken a comprehensive upgrade to premium plush and faux mink materials. Craftsmanship details, including embroidery and bow ties, have also been refined across the board, resulting in markedly higher customer satisfaction.

Take the case of a new customer in the South American market. Two years ago, their first order placed through Yiwugo was valued at roughly RMB 100,000; this year, each individual purchase has exceeded RMB 1 million. The customer remarked that whether their orders totaled RMB 100,000 in the past or more than RMB 1 million today, Wawabao has consistently provided prompt responses and attentive follow-up—an impressive demonstration of the company’s service consciousness and professional integrity. Wawabao has also cultivated a group of high-quality customers who have experienced rapid growth over the past two years. For the company, 2025 is poised to be a year of abundance, and expectations remain high for its performance in this year’s Yiwugo Top 10 Vendors Competition.

To further help vendors attract online traffic and acquire customers, Yiwugo launched a new feature called “Live-streamed Store Tours” in October.

As part of its effort to open new paths for online marketing, the feature deploys professional hosts to conduct real-time broadcasts from brick-and-mortar shops inside the Yiwu International Trade City. By pairing the extensive product offerings of physical storefronts with the immediacy of live-streaming, the initiative creates a brand-new channel for branding and sales.

During each session, streamers guide viewers through the market from a first-person perspective, visiting showrooms of original manufacturers and reputable suppliers. They provide real-time commentary on trending products—highlighting their design, functions, materials, and pricing advantages—while interacting directly with merchants and responding to audience inquiries. This format not only brings to life the diversity and cost-competitiveness of Yiwu’s vast product landscape, but also transcends geographic boundaries, enabling global buyers to gain an inside view of Districts 1-5 of the International Trade City, as well as the newly launched District 6, the Global Digital Trade Center. It empowers domestic and overseas customers to browse offerings, evaluate products, and engage in business negotiations—all without ever leaving home.

This initiative represents a key milestone in Yiwugo’s digital transformation and its commitment to empowering the physical marketplace. Many participating merchants report that the “Live-Streamed Store Tours” have generated highly targeted customer inquiries, greatly increasing store visibility and credibility. This feature has proven especially effective in attracting online wholesale buyers and cross-border e-commerce sellers.

Time is the truest measure of value. Since its launch 13 years ago, Yiwugo has continually explored new paths for online-offline integration. Its “Live-Streamed Store Tours” marks a breakthrough in B2B e-commerce, seamlessly combining the strengths of physical wholesale markets with the traffic-driven power of live streaming. This “Yiwu model” offers a blueprint for specialized markets nationwide seeking integrated O2O development. As this model continues to gain traction, it will bring renewed vitality to global small-commodity trade. We eagerly await the new stars who will shine on the 2025 Yiwugo Top 10 Vendors list.

HTX Launches Futures Copy Trading 4.0: Triple Rewards Go Live with an 80,000 USDT Prize Pool

PANAMA CITY, Panama, Dec. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — HTX, a leading global crypto exchange, is proud to announce the official rollout of its upgraded Futures Copy Trading (4.0).


On December 11, HTX unveiled a comprehensive optimization of its copy-trading experience, highlighted by the introduction of the brand-new “Smart Copy” mode. This launch marks a major advance for HTX in social and automated trading, delivering a system that is smarter, more efficient, and highly transparent for global users.

To celebrate the milestone and thank users for their long-term support, HTX is launching a month-long trading campaign featuring an 80,000 USDT prize pool.

Core Upgrades: Smart Copy and Fund Segregation, Redefining What It Means to Trade Effortlessly

In the highly volatile crypto market, smart choices often outperform sheer effort. HTX Futures Copy Trading 4.0 directly addresses two critical user concerns: Who is the best person to follow? And how can I follow them accurately? The new system answers both with enhanced technology and superior user protection.

Ultimate Lead Trader Experience: Smooth Operation, Precise Execution. The enhanced trading engine provides a smoother and more precise execution environment. Followers simply input their total investment amount, and the system handles all complexities automatically. Whether mirroring multi-batch entries under sophisticated strategies or executing rapid adjustments during sudden market swings, Copy Trading 4.0 performs instantly, without operational friction. This ensures followers can mirror every trade with high fidelity, guaranteeing a truly seamless experience.

Smart Copy Mode: Synchronized Profits, Verifiable and Replicable Returns. The newly launched Smart Copy mode elevates the entire system. Traditional copy trading often suffers from slippage and mismatched position sizes, which distort results. Smart Copy eliminates this by tracking the lead trader’s real capital usage and automatically allocating proportionate follow-up amounts. This ensures that followers’ exposure and conviction levels align precisely with the strategies of the trader they choose. A synchronized profit-tracking mechanism guarantees that followers replicate the trader’s actual Profit and Loss (PnL) changes, preventing deviations caused by over- or under-allocating capital. Users can now copy trading strategies, risk structures, and performance with significantly greater accuracy.

Innovative Fund Isolation System: Secure Capital, Flexible Control. Another major breakthrough is HTX’s new fund-segregation framework. Historically, copy trading platforms carried the risk of a follower’s capital being unintentionally cross-used across multiple traders. HTX resolves this issue permanently. Each copy trading follower now benefits from a dedicated, isolated capital pool, achieving complete fund and risk segregation. This isolation allows followers to flexibly adjust the investment allocated to each trader, offering strengthened risk control and optimizing overall capital efficiency. This redesign provides a critical layer of protection for all followers.

Celebration Carnival: Multiple Rewards to Boost Copy Trading

From December 11, 2025 at 10:00 to January 10, 2026 at 10:00 (UTC), HTX is rolling out a special campaign to celebrate the launch of Copy Trading 4.0.

Find the official event details here:  https://www.htx.com/support/105019503016393

During the event, registered participants can enjoy the following three reward opportunities:

Welcome Trial Bonus: Users who add “Copy Trading” to the HTX app homepage will receive a copy trading trial bonus instantly. Rewards are limited to the first 10,000 participants.

First-Trade Loss Subsidy: Registered users whose very first copy trade (with a volume of $ge$100 USDT) results in a loss will receive a subsidy of up to 50 USDT in copy trading trial bonuses. A prize pool of 20,000 USDT is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Cumulative Margin Reward: Users are eligible to share a 50,000 USDT prize pool based on their cumulative margin used for copy trading during the event. Those whose cumulative margin reaches 5,000 USDT will share a dedicated 20,000 USDT pool.

Users must upgrade their HTX app to version 11.9.0 or above to ensure full and smooth functionality.

The market never lacks opportunities—it only lacks the right tools to seize them.

HTX Futures Copy Trading 4.0 is built precisely as that tool. By lowering the barriers between professional traders and everyday users, the system turns sophisticated trading logic into a simple one-tap experience. Every user, regardless of background, gains easy access to professional-level strategies. This upgrade puts true control back into users’ hands for a steadier, more empowered long-term growth.

Desktop CNC Machine Secures Over $8.2M in 40 Days on Kickstarter–Final 3 Days to Access Exclusive Pricing Before Campaign Concludes

SEATTLE, Dec. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Nestworks, a pioneer in accessible advanced manufacturing tools, has announced the final 3-day countdown for its Kickstarter campaign. Since its launch, the campaign has gained significant traction in the personal manufacturing sector, raising over $8.2M in 40 days from makers, structural designers, industrial designers, and small businesses globally. The Nestworks C-500 desktop CNC machine, a core offering of the campaign, will no longer be available at the exclusive Kickstarter discount once the countdown ends, with retail pricing set to take effect thereafter.

$8M Poster
$8M Poster

As a standout product in the $4.2 billion global personal manufacturing equipment market, the Nestworks C-500 integrates industrial-grade performance into a compact, desk-friendly form factor, supported by three key technical features:

  • Hard Metal Machining Capability: Equipped with an 800W high-power spindle, 100KG full-machine rigidity, and an innovative MQL (Minimum Quantity Lubrication) system, the C-500 is the only desktop CNC machine capable of efficient cutting of hard alloys such as titanium and stainless steel—materials that were previously inaccessible to non-industrial users via consumer-grade equipment.
  • Accessible “Design and Manufacture” Workflow: Nestworks’ proprietary CAM software can automatically identify tools and raw materials, then generate optimal toolpaths. This functionality enables widespread application of the “who designs, who manufactures” model in CNC subtractive manufacturing, allowing structural and industrial designers to translate concepts into physical metal parts without advanced programming expertise.
  • Crowdfunding Performance: The $8.2M raised in 40 days reflects market demand for a desktop solution that addresses the gap between plastic 3D printing (for prototyping) and costly outsourced metal fabrication.

“The Nestworks C-500 is designed to break the traditional trade-offs in personal CNC—either insufficient performance for practical use or excessive complexity for everyday operation,” said Henry, Co-Founder of Nestworks. “It provides creators with a tool to machine hard metals efficiently and iterate designs in hours rather than weeks. The Kickstarter-exclusive discount of over 45% off retail price will expire once the 3-day countdown ends.”

For hardware developers, small businesses, and design professionals, the final phase of the campaign represents the last opportunity to purchase the Nestworks C-500 at the exclusive promotional price. Post-campaign, the product will be sold at regular retail pricing, and additional Kickstarter-exclusive benefits such as priority shipping and extended warranty will no longer be available.

VEVOR Sparks Holiday Creativity, Donating Pro-Grade Gear to Empower Pasadena Maker Community

PASADENA, Calif., Dec. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — VEVOR, a global home improvement brand, kicked off the holiday season with a festive Holiday Maker Event, donating 10 Hybrid Heat Press machines to support local creators. In partnership with nonprofit REMAINDERS Creative Reuse, the initiative aims to empower the community through hands-on creative education and sustainable upcycling.

At the event, attendees immersed themselves in the spirit of creativity: some customized fresh holiday-themed tees, while others transformed thrifted denim jackets and vintage fabrics into unique, one-of-a-kind pieces — breathing new life into old garments and perfectly embodying the ethos of creative reuse.

The evening began with a warm welcome from the VEVOR team, followed by a live demonstration showcasing the Hybrid Heat Press’s intuitive workflow, quick setup, and precise temperature control. Gasps of delight were heard throughout the room as participants lifted the press plates, revealing vibrant, professional-quality designs steamed perfectly onto their fabric in seconds. “I couldn’t believe how easy it was to create my own T-shirt,” said one participant. “The machine just works—setup is fast, and the results look amazing!”

Attendees then rotated through three maker stations—two for T-shirts and one for tote bags—selecting graphics, positioning designs, and pressing their creations with guidance from VEVOR staff. Beginners and seasoned creators alike quickly gained confidence, trying multiple designs and experimenting with layouts and colors. “This workshop shows just how much you can do with upcycled materials,” shared another participant. “It’s inspiring to see everyday items transformed into something unique and personal.”

Donation Expands Community Impact

A highlight of the evening was the formal donation ceremony, during which VEVOR presented 10 Hybrid Heat Presses to the REMAINDERS Creative Reuse leadership team. The room buzzed with excitement as attendees — including many community members experiencing heat press technology for the first time — captured the moment on their phones, eager to share their new creations on social media. Cheers and applause erupted as the equipment was unveiled.

“REMAINDERS has built a truly meaningful maker community — one rooted in creativity, sustainability, and accessible arts education,” said Gavin, VEVOR brand director. “We are honored to support their mission and can’t wait to see how local creators use the Hybrid Heat Press to personalize designs and transform upcycled materials into new pieces.”

The equipment will be integrated into REMAINDERS’ community workshops, supporting programs focused on upcycling, arts education, and hands-on skill building. The donation ensures long-term access to professional-level tools for both beginning and experienced makers.
