Epic Web3 – events in AI and Web3 industries

🌐 Scaling your dApp in 2025? Start here 👇 🧠 Takeaways from the “Beyond the Bubble: Scaling dApps in 2025” panel with leaders from 1inch, Axelar, AEON, Zerolend, Nomisma & Chainflip: 1️⃣ UX > Decentralization Users care more about smooth, fast, intuitive interfaces than whether your app is “fully on-chain.” Make it seamless. Make it feel like magic. 2️⃣ Infra Alone Won’t Pay the Bills Cross-chain fees are falling fast. As Axelar’s Georgios said, infra value is being commoditized. The real opportunity? User interfaces and owning the user journey. 3️⃣ Community = Direction Your users aren’t just there to click—they're your co-builders. Dima from Nomisma shared how real-time feedback and open communication drives better product decisions. ⚙️ Bottom line: To scale in 2025, build apps people can actually use—and want to come back to.

🧞‍♂️Epic Web3 x Cannes → EthCC Week 🚀🇫🇷 We’re bringing TWO major events + a week-long coliving bootcamp to the French Riviera! From testing AI x Web3 ideas in the wild to scaling the next-gen dApp stack — here's what’s coming 👇 🏕 Oz city: AI x Web3 Pop-Up City A hands-on week with 80 top builders, founders & researchers. Infra, agents, VCs, and nature — all under one roof. 🤖 Agents Day: Autonomous Agents x DeFAI Back for round 3 — Cannes edition! Autonomous systems, dePIN, multi-agent infra & AI-enhanced dApps. 🌀 L2con @ EthCC[8] The largest EthCC-side event on scaling & adoption. 50+ speakers, 1200+ builders, 2 stages: Chains & dApps.

We read over 100 tweets to find the top 3 trending topics from TOKEN2049 in Dubai. Here they are: 👾 AI is the main topic. It seems like almost every event had some AI themes in one way or another in different narratives. AI is definitely alive and well. Some say "AI agents were a dominant narrative". While others are even more optimistic: "Teams are deploying useful AI applications and agents that will account for the majority of onchain volume in the next 18 months." 🀄️ The market is maturing. People are more interested in long-term projects that bring something to the industry, not just the hype around tokens and TGEs. "The game of the token being just the product is clearly dead" - Logan Jastremski 🏪 CEXs are everywhere - they sponsored most of the booths in the main conference and generally ran the show.

Why won't AI save DeFi? What should Web3 founders learn from Web2? How to make UX accessible to all? New podcast with Ilya Letunov, Founder @rivoxyz, unified DeFi front-end that allows to earn yield on BTC, ETH and USD through the top strategies across the whole DeFi.

DeFi is getting an AI-native interface — and it changes everything. Forget wallets, bridges, and jargon. You’ll soon say, “Move $500 to the safest ETH yield,” and an agent will do it: → Cross-chain → Gas-less → Risk-managed This isn’t just better UX — it’s a shift in who gets to play the game: 🏑 AI Agents level the playing field 85% of traders lose money. AI agents don’t sleep, manage risk 24/7, and can execute pro strategies for everyday users. 💻 Interfaces are evolving In 3 years, you won’t go to Uniswap. You’ll talk to a chat agent who handles your entire portfolio. 🤖 Scalability needs native AI More trades, more automation = more demand. We’ll need crypto-native AI models to stay decentralized and cost-efficient.

3 blockchain use cases for AI 🪙 Payments in the Agent economy Blockchain’s inherent strengths are global, transparent, continuous operations. They are ideal for handling payments between autonomous AI agents. For example, specialized agents can securely and automatically compensate each other, facilitating a decentralized AI-driven economic system. ✊ Proof of ownership and contributions Blockchain provides cryptographic proof of data or model ownership, ensuring that contributors can be transparently identified and compensated. This enables fair revenue distribution when AI models are monetized through inference. 💿 Cryptographic verification: On-chain cryptographic methods (such as zero-knowledge proofs or attestations from trusted execution environments) verify off-chain computations. Smart contracts can automate these verifications, ensuring integrity without compromising privacy or data security.

Why does ETH slow us down? From Nick Dodson, Co-founder & CEO of Fuel Labs, devs of Fuel Ignition, FuelVM & Sway language! 🗓 Blockchain infrastructure we use today, especially Ethereum, was not originally designed for scale or mainstream adoption. 🐎 Ethereum was built fast, during a time when just getting it to function was the primary goal. As a result, many of its architectural decisions (like the EVM and account model) have become limiting factors in today’s world of more demanding applications. 🏃 The current infrastructure layer in Web3 is still playing catch-up. Instead of optimizing for performance or user experience, it's often entangled in legacy decisions and slow governance processes. 🤝 Truly transformative applications require a fresh approach — one where the tech is designed with today’s needs in mind, rather than those of 2015.

What is the biggest Web3 problem? How can we make products useful for simple users? What are the troubles with Ethereum architecture?

BTC is down 15% this month and ETH is down 30%. But why? Here are 4 reasons: ⚔️ Trade wars: Trump's tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico triggered recession fears, and investors decided to pull back from risk assets like crypto. Fears of inflation and economic slowdown made the sell-off only worse. ☹️ Policy pessimism: Optimism over Trump’s U.S. Crypto Strategic Reserve faded when it became clear the government wouldn’t immediately buy Bitcoin. ⛄️ Snowball effect with investor risk aversion: Crypto funds faced four straight weeks of outflows, totaling $4.7 billion by early March. Institutions trimmed exposure amid bearish sentiment and macroeconomic uncertainty, with many investors fleeing to safer assets. 📉 Technical correction: A descending triangle pattern in the crypto market cap broke in early March, leading to a drop to ~$2.6 trillion by March 10. The correction aligned with technical downside targets and was less panic-driven than earlier sell-offs.

🧞‍♂️Epic Web3 x4 → Token2049 🚀🇦🇪 We're dropping not one, not two, but FOUR side events at Token2049!
