VALR Concludes the Year with a Strong Presence at Taipei Blockchain Week
VALR, Africa’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trade volume, concluded its year-long presence with a significant impact on the discussions surrounding the future of digital assets during Taipei Blockchain Week. The event saw VALR’s Chief Marketing Officer, Ben Caselin, engage in an engaging panel session titled “Unlocking Web3 Potential in Emerging Markets: Asia and Africa on the Rise.”
The keynote speaker emphasized the crucial role that stablecoins play in markets such as South Africa and highlighted the innovative potential of emerging markets like Asia and Africa. He also predicted key trends for the upcoming year, including countries exploring Bitcoin mining, corporate adoption of Bitcoin for treasury management, and financial institutions expanding access to digital assets like US dollar stablecoins.
Additionally, Caselin addressed critical challenges within the industry, cautioning against the proliferation and endless issuance of new tokens, which he argued distracts from the primary objective of optimizing global finance. He stressed that it is essential to cater to the financial requirements of households and businesses in emerging markets, where the main focus lies in wealth preservation and financial inclusion.
In addition to participating in the conference, VALR’s team organized a VIP event for several leading traders and collaborated with BlockTempo to host an assembly of over 150 Web3 traders and enthusiasts. These events enabled opportunities to explore the growth potential in Taiwan and beyond.
VALR has been making headway in connecting with the Asian market by adopting the local name “Wei Le” (), which translates to “powerful and happy” in Chinese, reflecting its commitment to bringing power and happiness through digital assets.
