During Shard Dubai Summit 2025, Lingling Jiang, Partner at Falcon Finance and DWF Labs, joined the panel "Stablecoin Evolution: Bridging the Gap Between Crypto and Real-World Assets" to share her perspective on how institutions are approaching the next phase of Web3.
Here are her key takeaways from the stage 👇
1️⃣ Yield sources, scalability, and security are key aspects users should consider when assessing a stablecoin’s reliability and long-term potential.
2️⃣ Lingling pointed out that the market is moving toward greater stability, driven by rising regulatory standards. We’ll see more rigorous transparency requirements and enforced proof of reserves.
3️⃣ One of the biggest hurdles for any new stablecoin project is building liquidity. Success also depends on understanding your user base and what they need, and designing incentives that align with real demand.
4️⃣ We’re seeing a wave of new stablecoin models emerge to meet market demand — from RWA-backed assets to yield-bearing models. For example, Falcon Finance is building a next-gen, multi-asset, yield-bearing synthetic dollar designed to serve both retail and institutional users.
Many thanks to Sharding Capital for the invitation, and to fellow speakers for the engaging discussion.

Today at VC & Angel Investors Connect by Daos Hub Dubai🇦🇪, Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner at DWF Labs, joined a private panel to share his views on the current market landscape and where Web3 is headed.
Here’s a quick recap of what he covered 👇
1️⃣ According to Andrei, great founders have a strong vision, stay in tune with market needs, and build with awareness of shifting trends.
2️⃣ A strong founding team needs a go-to-market specialist, a technical lead, and a clear team leader. Founders should also demonstrate a solid understanding of tokenomics and the crypto landscape.
3️⃣ He reminded founders not to underestimate contact forms as a method of outreach, as it is an efficient way to communicate key details of projects with investors.
4️⃣ Andrei also sees growing opportunity in DeFi and fixed income layers, where new infrastructure is taking shape.
Plenty of valuable insights shared!

At #TOKEN2049, Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner at DWF Labs, presented his keynote “Changing the Crypto World Order”. Missed the keynote? Here’s a quick recap 👇
1️⃣ Andrei shared that regulation is evolving quickly. In 2017, BTC fought for relevance, whereas in 2025 it is now adopted by banks and integrated in traditional finance. However, in this current market cycle, fresh capital is scarce, and competition is fierce.
🔍 However, downturns can also uncover hidden gems. Projects can still achieve success with meaningful and sustainable use-cases and strategic approaches to working with exchanges, investors, and the wider crypto community.
2️⃣ This is why we are doubling down in our commitment to the Web3 industry: we have launched a $250M Liquid Fund to support mid and large-cap projects. We're also backing Falcon — the next-generation yield-bearing synthetic dollar protocol.
3️⃣ Our goal is to offer users who are holding a variety of crypto assets the opportunity to utilise their tokens and receive yield at a competitive level.
4️⃣ Andrei shared that we are optimistic in the market, because a potential Fed rate cut will lead to higher liquidity in the market, therefore increased activity around BTC as a reserve asset.
5️⃣ Andrei's perspective on key areas to watch are increased tokenisation of assets, BTC's evolution, and new movements in traditional finance frameworks.
Hard times create good times, especially for those with capital.

During #TOKEN2049 Dubai, Lingling Jiang, Partner at DWF Labs and Falcon Finance, joined the Mastering Web3 Finance & Compliance Panel Discussion: "Institutional Deployment of Web3 Strategies in the Middle East" — exploring the next wave of institutional adoption in Web3.
Here’s a brief recap of her key insights 👇
1️⃣ Lingling noted that the expansion of on-chain infrastructure and the tokenisation of traditionally illiquid assets, like hedge funds and RWAs, is emerging as a focus area across the crypto industry.
2️⃣ She highlighted Falcon Finance as an example of this shift — welcoming both retail users with smaller deposits and institutions from TradFi who benefit from the team’s on-chain expertise.
3️⃣ On BTC, she noted that Bitcoin continues to resonate with traditional finance players. Many see it as the most familiar and acceptable point of investing.
4️⃣ Finally, Lingling stressed that greater education and clearer frameworks around investor protection and liquidity are essential to accelerating demand for on-chain strategies.
There’s much more to come as institutions continue exploring what’s possible in Web3.
Bit thanks to Elven with Cypher Capital, Amber Group & NH Management for hosting, and to the fellow panelists for engaging.

Investment strategies and founder resilience were key topics at Pre-TOKEN2049 Friday: Global Innovators – Dubai Edition 🇦🇪
Alessia Baumgartner, VP of Ecosystems at DWF Labs, joined the conversation to share key insights:
1️⃣ Market Sentiment: The current market conditions are particularly challenging. While many investors remain cautious, at DWF Labs, we're selectively deploying capital, identifying opportunities even in tough macro environments.
2️⃣ Focus Areas: As multi-stage and vertical-agnostic investors, we're closely monitoring emerging ecosystems. Our emphasis is on newer blockchain networks, stablecoins, and payment solutions.
3️⃣ Advice for founders: be conservative. Cut costs where possible, be cautious with hiring, and ensure enough runway to weather an extended bear market.
4️⃣ Investment Criteria: We're prioritising teams with tangible revenue streams and strong execution capabilities.
5️⃣ Our Differentiator: as one of the largest market makers, we offer portfolio companies access to exchanges, product feedback, marketing support, KOL connections, and our wider network 🤝
Thank you to the organisers, CV Labs and DMCC, our fellow panellists Benedek Orban and Marek Sandrik, and all attendees for a productive and insightful session. We look forward to continuing to support innovation and growth across the Web3 ecosystem.
