Glad to announce strategic partnership with GraFun! 🌎 Let the 🔥 begin 🫡 Stay tuned! #GraGraxDWFLabs

During Algorand Royale @ TOKEN2049 hosted by Algorand Foundation, Alessia Baumgartner — Business Partner of Ecosystems at DWF Labs — participated in the panel "How to Survive & Thrive as a Web3 Company?" 🔥 Alessia discussed advice and key strategies alongside Benedetto Biondi, Michael Cotton, and Marc Bernier. Read some of her advice for Web3 builders and innovators below 👇 1️⃣ Alessia discussed that projects should think strategically about utility and whether they need a token, and should focus on adding as much utility as possible so that token demand will grow. 2️⃣ Whether to aim for increasing profitability or acquiring market share depends on the stage of the project. 3️⃣ She recommended that early-stage projects (pre-seed, seed round, or pre-TGE) should aim for increasing market share. 4️⃣ Market share can be increased by first doing thorough research — understanding competitors' partnerships and which chains they are building on, as well as competitors' narratives and overall strategies. 5️⃣ Later-stage projects (post-TGE) can aim for profitability, and goals will change depending on project stage. Thank you to the team at Algorand Foundation for having us on this panel 🤝 #DWFLabsxTOKEN2049

Memecoins were a key point of discussion during #TOKEN2049 Singapore 💬 Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner of DWF Labs, spoke during the panel "Memecoins: Fleeting Trend or Crypto Evolution?" alongside Sandra Leow, Murad Mahmudov, Ansem, and Mike Dudas to discuss what's coming in the memecoin sector. Check out some takeaways below 👇 1️⃣ Andrei shared that memecoins are a crucial user acquisition tool not just for L1 and L2 chains, but for the crypto industry overall. 2️⃣ Users are attracted to memecoins for entertainment, and memecoins act as a catalyst for onboarding new users into the crypto space. 3️⃣ Andrei shared that from an investor's perspective, memecoins give fast feedback and results on whether an investment is successful. 4️⃣ As there are millions of memecoins being launched, memecoins need to have a compelling narrative and a proper project structure in order to reach success. 5️⃣ He shared that teams with good narratives and a strong community of users and influencers can outperform VC coins on the market in the long run.

We had an awesome time and a great discussion at the inaugural FarCon Asia event, hosted by Farcaster 🔥 Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner of DWF Labs, took the stage during the panel "Memes & NFT: What Dreams Will They Fulfil" alongside Jing Yi Tan; Giulio X, Juliet Su 苏丽; Clement Chia; and Alice Chen. Check out some of Andrei's key insights 👇 1️⃣ NFTs aren't dead — but the old narrative surrounding them is. He shared that NFTs and memes will continue to be a part of the crypto industry moving forward and will have a bright future in the industry. 2️⃣ He shared that PumpFun is a reincarnation of NFT culture, as memes are a form of tokenised culture and intellectual property. 3️⃣ An example of a new approach to NFTs is Telegram stickers, offering fresh and innovative value to the NFT model. Special thank you to the event organisers BlockBeats Asia, Jam, and Tako Protocol for having us at this panel 🤝 #DWFLabsxTOKEN2049

Last week at the Borderless Summit during #TOKEN2049, Eugene Ng, Founding Partner of DWF Labs, shared his thoughts 🔥 He participated in the panel "Unified Liquidity—Enhancing the User Experience" alongside Sergej Kunz Co-Founder of 1inch Network; Chris Carapola Co-Founder & CEO of Curvance; Matthew P. DeFi Lead at LayerZero Labs; and Tigran Bolshoi Co-Founder of Kinetex Network. Eugene shared that the key behind DeFi is solving real world problems — sharing that crypto's characteristics of accessibility and being permissionless can be integral to solving issues. DeFi offers decentralised financial services to underserved populations in TradFi, and he shared that DeFi go-to-market strategies should be mindful of regulatory policies in various regions worldwide. Thank you to SynFutures for having us at this great panel 🤝 #DWFLabsxTOKEN2049 

At #TOKEN2049 last week, Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner of DWF Labs, took the DWF Labs stage to share during his keynote, "The Great Reset of the Crypto Market". Check out some key takeaways: 1️⃣ The current market structure is different from previous cycles, with altcoins differing from BTC price movements and community driven tokens outperforming VC-backed tokens. 2️⃣ Community driven tokens are driven by culture — they are an opportunity to tokenise culture and foster community strength. 3️⃣ Asian exchanges are remaining strong, and TON Foundation is a top player, with memecoins and mini-game apps propelling their growth. 4️⃣ The meme vertical will remain a large part of the crypto market, providing users with freedom and the opportunity to build culture. 5️⃣ Crypto OGs that have previously launched successful tokens are working on new products, with changes coming in the crypto market and opportunities arising.
