Tomorrow’s Token successfully concluded: CoinW joins Cointelegraph to discuss Dubai's regulations and the future landscape of crypto assets

The globally leading digital asset trading platform CoinW shone brightly at the top industry summit Token 2049 in Dubai. As a platinum sponsor of this conference, CoinW not only set up a core booth in the main venue but also co-hosted the themed side event Tomorrow's Token with the Dubai Blockchain Center (DBCC), DMCC Crypto Centre, and the globally renowned Web3 content brand Coin Bureau. Furthermore, CoinW collaborated deeply with the well-known primary industry media Cointelegraph, further showcasing its profound insights and leading capabilities in the future development of the crypto industry.

The side event was held at the SO/Uptown Hotel, focusing on four core topics: "Dubai Web3 Ecosystem," "Layer1 Innovation," "Security," and "KOL Ecosystem." The event gathered regulatory representatives, technology pioneers, and industry leaders from around the world. Attendees included Coin Bureau's Nic, renowned crypto analyst Michael van de Poppe, Future Trends representative Desmond, beloved content creator Annii (TradeTravelChill), and heavyweight guests from Amazon AMS, blockchain security auditing firm CertiK, and Layer1 project Polkadot, who engaged in in-depth discussions on the development direction of Web3, technological innovation, and the future of the industry, collaboratively outlining an innovative blueprint for crypto assets.

Dubai Web3 Hotspot: Regulation, Ecosystem, and Localization Innovation

Dubai is gradually establishing its unique position in the Web3 industry. Since the early days of trading platforms settling in, Dubai has continuously improved its compliance policies, promoting the development of key sectors such as stablecoins, and has carved out a localized path distinct from other markets. Now, with Singapore, Hong Kong, and Dubai forming a global "iron triangle" in the crypto industry, Token 2049 has also completed its global layout starting from Hong Kong, covering Singapore and Dubai.

In this themed side event, the first roundtable hosted by Anna Shakola from the industry-leading media Cointelegraph gathered industry scholars, exchange executives, industry media, and ecosystem builders, focusing on "How Dubai is rapidly rising as a global crypto hub by relying on advanced regulatory frameworks and improved infrastructure."

The discussion centered on how Dubai continues to attract global crypto enterprises by leveraging its forward-looking regulatory system and increasingly refined infrastructure. Participants delved into the stablecoin policy framework in the region and its institutional advantages in attracting blockchain innovation projects.

CoinW's strategic decision to relocate its global headquarters to Dubai also garnered attention. CoinW's Chief Strategy Officer Nassar Achkar pointed out: "Operating in a regulated environment means higher responsibility. We must protect user assets with the highest standards and set an industry benchmark in trust and security."

This roundtable provided a systematic answer to the question of "why more and more Web3 projects are choosing Dubai." Clear and transparent regulatory expectations, a healthy policy communication mechanism, and a supportive atmosphere for innovation are driving Dubai to become an important base for the global expansion of crypto enterprises. CoinW's foresight and commitment to compliance in this process have also become key factors in its continued growth.

L1 Breakthrough? Public Chain Competition, Innovation, and Future Evolution

As blockchain technology continues to evolve, the collaborative relationship between Layer1 and Layer2 solutions has increasingly become a focal point in the industry. Once seen as a performance bottleneck, L1 is now expanding its capabilities through architectural restructuring and cross-chain interoperability; meanwhile, the rise of L2 provides important supplements for scalability, cost control, and user experience. This trend is pushing the public chain ecosystem into a new phase of "co-building and collaboration," where technological evolution, narrative reshaping, and regulatory adaptation intertwine, leading to a new round of competition and restructuring for L1 public chains.

Against this backdrop, the roundtable "L1 Public Chain Breakthrough," hosted by Guy Turner from Coin Bureau, gathered several core builders from the blockchain ecosystem to discuss the positioning and future paths of L1 in the new era.

The roundtable focused on the rapid evolution of L1 public chains, particularly the latest advancements in scalability, cross-chain interoperability, and modular architecture. In the context of increasingly stringent compliance requirements, how to achieve a system that is flexible in architecture and responsive to regulatory demands while ensuring decentralization and security has become a key issue. Participants also explored how the collaboration models between L1, L2, and L3 can optimize overall ecological efficiency.

Additionally, the real challenges and opportunities facing public chain construction were also on the agenda, including how to build sustainable token economic models, enhance developer incentive mechanisms, and break through long-standing scalability bottlenecks. Regarding which countries are most favorable for the development of Layer1 public chains, Jeffrey Milligan, Global Director of Business and Strategic Partnerships at Cointelegraph, pointed out: "The UAE provides a clear regulatory framework through VARA, Singapore's policy guidance is also clear, while Hong Kong focuses more on institutional development. Talent and capital always flow to regions with transparent regulations and support for innovation."

This dialogue not only provided forward-looking insights into the future competition and cooperation landscape of Layer1 public chains but also highlighted CoinW's strategic vision and practical commitment in promoting the development of Web3 infrastructure.

Building Ultimate Security: From Exchange Protection to Industry-Wide Collaboration

Security has always been the main theme of the blockchain industry's development and the "Sword of Damocles" hanging over every crypto exchange. With frequent hacker attacks, system vulnerabilities, and security incidents, the industry's demands for security standards are rapidly escalating. Against this backdrop, CoinW, with its eight years of deep technical accumulation and operational experience, has always prioritized user asset security, maintaining a "zero security incident" record since its establishment in 2017, making it one of the few "security models" in the industry.

The third roundtable, hosted by Maria Vovchok from the Dubai Blockchain Center (DBCC), focused on the core issue of "crypto security," with guests from trading platforms, security agencies, and regulatory bodies engaging in in-depth discussions on the security challenges and technological responses in the new situation.

Participants unanimously agreed that, in the face of increasingly complex security threats, building a composite security system of "proactive defense + multiple audits + collaborative response" has become an industry consensus. Especially within the exchange system, security is not only a bottom line but also the foundation of trust. CoinW's Chief Security Advisor Michael Liu highlighted the new security strategy system set to launch in 2025, which comprehensively upgrades everything from underlying architecture and data protection to asset custody mechanisms, reflecting its commitment to continuously build a "trustworthy trading environment."

Moreover, the roundtable discussion also covered the latest advancements in security technology, auditing strategies, and the key role of inter-agency collaboration in building a secure ecosystem. Hacken CEO Dyma Budorin candidly stated: "Smart contract audits are no longer sufficient to meet current challenges; project parties and platforms should pay more attention to operational security mechanisms, employee permission management, and the transparency and robustness of the upstream and downstream supply chain."

This roundtable not only focused on current pain points but also strategically projected the future direction of security in the crypto ecosystem. CoinW's ongoing investments in technological defenses, risk warnings, and emergency response mechanisms demonstrate its leading position in building a security culture and set a higher compliance and trust threshold for the entire industry.

KOL Decline or Rebirth? The Redistribution of Crypto Influence

In the current reconstruction of decentralized information flow, KOLs are gradually taking over the discourse power of traditional crypto media. Whether it is the explosive growth of KOL agencies or the rise of content tools like Kaito, "discourse sovereignty" has become a battleground that every Web3 project cannot avoid. How to capture user attention and build trust in an era of fragmented communication has become a new challenge facing the crypto industry.

The themed roundtable hosted by Monika Mlodzianowska, Director of Strategic Partnerships at CoinW, gathered several top opinion leaders (KOLs) from different languages and regions to engage in in-depth dialogue about the evolution of KOL roles in the era of self-media.

This roundtable further focused on the bridging role of KOLs in on-chain narratives, user education, and project promotion. In the face of language and cultural differences, multi-layered user cognition, and the challenges of reshaping global brand trust, KOLs are becoming an important link connecting communities and industries, contributing crucial power to the global popularization of crypto technology.

Additionally, content strategy was another core topic of this roundtable. Annii (Trade Travel Chill) pointed out: "What you find boring content may hit the pain point for some users. We always seek feedback from the comment section, using the voices of users as the starting point for optimizing content." Guests also emphasized that high-quality content does not necessarily need to be "heavily produced," but must resonate closely with community emotions and continuously evoke resonance.

This roundtable deeply revealed how crypto KOLs shape Web3 narratives and promote community culture evolution, also highlighting CoinW's ongoing investment in promoting community collaboration, supporting content diversity, and educational dissemination.

Looking to the Future: Building a Safer and More Trustworthy Global Web3 Ecosystem

By hosting the Tomorrow's Token themed side event, CoinW not only showcased its deep layout across multiple dimensions such as technology, security, community, and content narrative but also responded to the industry's key concerns regarding regulatory adaptation, user trust, and global expansion with concrete actions. From policy dialogue to infrastructure building, from technological evolution to narrative reconstruction, CoinW has always stood at the forefront of the crypto industry's transformation.

In the future, CoinW will continue to use Dubai as a global strategic hub, deepen compliance cooperation, promote the collaborative development of technology and ecology, and continue to invest in user education, security construction, and community empowerment, building a more transparent, secure, and open Web3 world.

As CoinW's Chief Strategy Officer Nassar emphasized: "We are not only participating in industry development but also hope to shape its direction."
