Paybis at TOKEN2049 Dubai: Building Bridges and Shaping the Future

Another week, another new event. This time, the Paybis team flew all the way to Dubai to attend the TOKEN2049 event, one of the industry’s most important events for all things crypto. Taking place from April 30 to May 1, 2025, this year’s TOKEN2049 was absolutely teeming with discussions amongst 15,000 attendees, over 500 side events, and more than 200 speakers. Let’s break it all down day by day!

About TOKEN2049

TOKEN2049 is a leading global crypto conference that brings together founders, investors, developers, and industry leaders to explore the latest trends in Web3, blockchain, and digital assets. Held in major crypto hubs like Dubai and Singapore, the event features high-impact panels, networking opportunities, and side events that shape the future of the digital economy.

Showcasing End-to-End Crypto Solutions

During the TOKEN2049 event, the Paybis co-founder and CBDO, Konstantin Vasilenko, spoke with leading media platforms like Web3TV, Metaverse Post (mpost), and CoinGabbar about Paybis’ goal of developing the necessary tools to help bridge the gap between traditional finance and cryptocurrencies.

At the center of these talks were Paybis’ advanced solutions for CEX, DEX, DeFi, and RWA platforms, offering fully-compliant, innovative, and highly adaptable on/off ramp solutions for different businesses across multiple industries to take a step towards easier crypto-to-fiat and vice versa conversions.

Additionally, Konstantin also shared in the discussions about AI and stablecoins, the critical need for clearer, real-world use cases for crypto applications, the various partnerships between traditional finance and decentralized finance, and how Web2 and Web3 integration are redefining user expectations.

This is just one of the key highlights from the TOKEN2049 event, proving that Dubai has indeed become a global crypto hub, as shown by the event’s scale and depth of institutional participation. As Konstantin said, “crypto keeps moving forward, and we’re going full speed with the change. The opportunities we showcased for crypto and TradFi companies got a ton of enthusiasm”.

Co-Hosting Electrifying Side Events

Product demonstration and showcasing aside, the TOKEN2049 event was delivered to the fun department as well. Amongst all other activities, panel discussions, and presentations, there were side events, some of which were co-hosted by Paybis.

The first event we co-hosted took place right next to the iconic Burj Khalifa tower. Together with Blum, DOGS, Trump’s Empire, Flipster, and MissW, the Burj & Burn afterparty gathered everyone from Web3 enthusiasts to top platforms from the heart of Downtown Dubai. At this event, everyone enjoyed exclusive giveaways, exciting entertainment, and meaningful discussions.

On the next day, Paybis co-hosted another side event called The Whispers with INPUT Global, Tether, MANSA, Credit Coop, and Plume Network. Compared to the Burj & Burn event, The Whispers event was much more exclusive and invite-only and held in a famous cigar lounge. All attendees, including established leaders and rising industry talents, shared their ideas and opinions on Web3.

Wrapping Up

The TOKEN2049 event was a complete success. The 2025 edition marked the third time Paybis attended this event, and we couldn’t be happier. While each year had something unique to offer in terms of crypto and overall Web3 trend, the underlying has become crystal clear.

The industry is effectively moving past the usual hype, towards clearer, cleaner, and more applicable real-world solutions. Paybis stands out as a company with a decade-long experience, offering crypto services for individuals and businesses, and we’re just getting started.
