CoinW: Leading the Hunt for Hi-Potential Projects as Telegram’s Ecosystem Expands

As the social network giant Telegram continues to evolve with its mini-apps and Web3 integration, one application remains the key for opening the floodgates of mainstream adoption.

“At the end of the day, the biggest use case is the most simple one — payments. This is where the next wave of users will come from,” said Sonia Shaw, President of CoinW.

Shaw was speaking at a fireside chat session hosted by Triangle, an accelerator program focusing on the advancement of Telegram mini-apps and the TON ecosysem.

Noting that TON (formerly known as Telegram Open Network) has the potential to bring a billion users from Web 2 to Web3, be it for the purpose of gaming, crypto trading or asset transfer, Shaw added that CoinW is always on the lookout for high-potential projects to incubate and bring to market.

Other panel members included Grant Khalapyan, CBDO, Gotbit Hedge Fund, Min, Partner, Foresight Ventures and Anton Umnov, Founder and CEO, Helika.io.

The fireside chat is among a series of events leading up to the much-anticipated TOKEN2049 on 18 and 19 September, which CoinW is participating in as a Platinum Sponsor. The Web3 and blockchain conference is the biggest event on the international crypto calendar, and will feature other prominent speakers including Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko and whistleblower Edward Snowden.
