As TOKEN2049 Dubai came to a close under the golden domes of Madinat Jumeirah, it was clear that the global Web3 community had just witnessed more than a conference — it was a convergence of ambition, innovation, and momentum.

With over 15,000 attendees packing the venue across two days, the final day delivered a flurry of high-impact reveals, bullish sentiment, and a few headline-grabbing moments that will ripple across the blockchain industry in the months to come.

USD1 Becomes the Star Stablecoin of the Show

One of the standout moments unfolded on the OKX stage, where World Liberty Financial (WLF) announced a native integration of its USD1 stablecoin on TRON. Executive VP and Co-Founder Zach Witkoff didn’t hold back — confirming that the minting process will kick off with hundreds of millions and scale to billions in market cap “in the near future.”

But that wasn’t the end of it. Witkoff also revealed that USD1 will be used to close MGX’s $2 billion investment in Binance, marking the first-ever institutional Binance investment conducted entirely in a stablecoin. It’s a watershed moment — not just for stablecoins, but for how major deals might be executed in the future.

Eric Trump’s Fiery Critique of Global Finance

Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, delivered a fiery indictment of the global financial system, calling it “broken,” outdated, and rigged against the average person. Speaking alongside industry giants like World Liberty Financial’s Zach Witkoff and Tron’s Justin Sun, Trump shared personal experiences of political backlash that pushed him toward the world of crypto.

“It works really well for, you know, maybe the top 1% or the top 0.1%, but it doesn’t work for the rest of the world,” Trump said, reflecting on how his family’s political involvement revealed the fragility and weaponization of traditional systems. “The second you start saying something that goes against the system, they’ll cancel you, ostracize you, and come after you.”

Eric Trump in a fiery speech said UAE and US will win crypto revolution

Mesh Brings Crypto to Checkout With Apple Pay

Another strong play came from Mesh, which introduced an Apple Pay integration enabling crypto-to-stablecoin payments for retail and e-commerce checkouts. Built on its proprietary SmartFunding tech, the move effectively removes the last-mile barrier for crypto users who want seamless, real-world utility — spend crypto, merchants get stablecoins.

Launching later in Q2, this comes hot on the heels of Mesh’s $82M Series B led by Paradigm, and could prove pivotal in nudging crypto closer to mainstream adoption.

Pipe Network Levels Up With PipeQuest Launch

In the world of decentralized infrastructure, Pipe Foundation rolled out PipeQuest, a gamified incentive program for its upcoming Pipe Network — a decentralized CDN built on Solana. Season 1 kicks off on May 5, 2025, and will focus on ramping up node performance, community participation, and demand-side traction.

Think of it as the Web3 version of a boot camp — with each week-long season preparing the network for its anticipated mainnet launch this summer.

Emad Mostaque Debuts Open-Source Medical AI Model

On the AI x crypto frontier, Emad Mostaque — founder of Intelligent Internet and former CEO of Stability AI — took the stage to unveil the II-Medical-7B-Preview, a medical reasoning model trained with curated data and DAPO (Data & Policy Optimization).

Paired with the launch of a whitepaper waitlist, this marks a bold move toward open-source healthcare AI, a vision rooted in equitable access and decentralized intelligence.

UFC Icon Khabib Nurmagomedov also made an appearance at the event as the global ambessador for Ice Open Network.

Culture, Conversations, and Crypto in the Desert

Beyond the announcements, TOKEN2049 Dubai served as a bustling meeting ground for founders, VCs, creators, and curious newcomers alike. From Eric Trump’s appearance and thoughts on digital sovereignty to candid conversations in the event hall corridors, the energy was palpable.

As the sun set over Dubai and the final panels wrapped, attendees left not just with media kits and merch — but with a renewed sense of what’s possible in Web3.
