Explore our article to find out more about Bybit’s collaboration with Oracle Red Bull Racing during TOKEN2049 Singapore 2024.

At the intersection of high-speed Formula One racing and cryptocurrency trading, TOKEN2049 2024 unfolded as a testament to innovation and collaboration. Held in Singapore from Sep 18–19, 2024, this premier annual gathering of the brightest minds in the blockchain and cryptocurrency sectors delved into the synergistic relationship between the precision of motorsports and the volatility of the crypto market. TOKEN2049 Singapore 2024 offered its attendees a unique perspective on the integration of sports, technology and finance.

TOKEN2049 Singapore 2024: From Racetrack to Cryptosphere: The DNA of Champions

The highlight of TOKEN2049 Day 1 was undoubtedly the panel featuring Bybit’s co-founder and CEO, Ben Zhou, alongside Oracle Red Bull Racing drivers Max Verstappen and Sergio “Checo” Pérez. Moderated by Caroline Buckland, Head of Global Fan Engagement at Oracle Red Bull Racing, the session promised an intriguing look at the parallels between Formula One and the cryptosphere. The room was packed and the air thick with anticipation as attendees filled every available seat, with some standing at the sides, not wanting to miss a moment. As the panelists took the stage the crowd roared with excitement, with some running to the front of the stage to capture photos of the stars up close. 

From Racetrack to Cryptosphere: The DNA of Champions,

 certainly didn’t disappoint. It offered a fascinating dive into the worlds of elite racing and crypto trading — arenas in which precision and resilience are paramount. Ben, Max and Checo shared insights on what drives them in their respective high-pressure environments. 

Checo Pérez highlighted the importance of team support and mutual dedication, noting that understanding and appreciating the efforts of those around him keeps him motivated. Max Verstappen echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the camaraderie and collective effort within the team as key to maintaining high performance. He emphasized the personal commitment to giving 100%, recognizing the crucial support from the team that makes this possible.

The panel members also shared how they balance their professional and personal lives. Max, who has become adept at managing his hectic schedule, emphasized the importance of making the most of his time between races. "There are 24 race weekends, and in between, it's important to enjoy and explore the different cities," he shared. He also highlighted the significance of spending time catching up with family and friends. Max acknowledged that as he gets older, managing sleep and adjusting to various time zones has become more challenging, yet it's crucial for maintaining his performance.

Checo spoke about the constant public attention that comes with being a Formula One driver, describing how fans often approach him for pictures and follow his movements closely. "Our work is in the public eye," he noted, explaining the necessity of drawing a firm line between his professional and personal life. At home, Checo transitions from the celebrity on the track to a dedicated father. "I have four kids at home, and when the helmet and suit come off, I'm just a regular person who loves spending time with them," he said. This separation, according to Checo, is essential not just for personal well-being but also for being fully present and effective in both realms of his life. He emphasized the importance of giving his best whether he’s at work or at home, ensuring dedication and focus in every aspect of his life.

Ben elaborated on Bybit's core values — Listen, Care, and Improve — which guide its operations and interactions with millions of retail and institutional clients. He described as fundamental to Bybit’s business the process of engaging closely with users to understand their needs and gather feedback. The partnership with Oracle Red Bull Racing resonates deeply with Bybit's approach, as Formula One's global circuit mirrors Bybit's commitment to meet and serve clients internationally. This synergy is enhanced by the excitement and engagement that F1 stars like Max and Checo bring to events, making these interactions memorable for the clients. 

Ben also drew parallels between the constant evolution in F1 and Bybit's need to stay ahead of fast-moving market trends and regulatory changes, highlighting its around-the-clock efforts to innovate and adapt — which makes the partnership both challenging and rewarding.

Looking to the future, Ben outlined Bybit's aspiration to be the gateway to 

, acknowledging the rapidly growing industry alongside increasing crypto adoption by most countries. With Europe set to embrace crypto through regulatory frameworks like MiCA, Bybit is poised to innovate and expand its reach globally, including launching the Bybit Card to meet diverse client needs in regions like Turkey, Brazil and Argentina.

This wasn’t just another discussion; it was a rare glimpse into the mindset required to excel at the apex of sports and finance.

Bybit x Oracle Red Bull Racing 2024: Where Sports & Crypto Meet

TOKEN2049 is an annual flagship event where luminaries from the cryptocurrency world congregate. Take a look at the highlights of the event in this article.

TOKEN2049 emerges as a flagship event, annually gathering luminaries from the cryptocurrency world. More than just a conference, it's a focal point for global thought leaders, innovators and enthusiasts who converge to shape the future of blockchain technology. This year, the focus expanded beyond traditional cryptocurrency dialogues to explore the burgeoning synergy between AI and blockchain technology.

The conference was enriched by a series of diverse side events, including Solana Breakpoint 2024, and several unique gatherings hosted by Bybit in collaboration with various partners, such as 1Token, SignalPlus, Oracle Red Bull Racing, AOI, Solana, the Blockchain for Good Alliance, Hashed, Delphi and Pulsar.

Each of the side events highlighted the dynamic interplay between cutting-edge technology and practical applications in the real world. From detailed explorations of decentralized finance (DeFi) to creative uses of NFTs in sports and art, TOKEN2049 provided a comprehensive view of how blockchain technology is not just growing but thriving through collaborative efforts across various domains.

On the first day of TOKEN2049 Singapore, attendees from around the world streamed through the doors of Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre, badges swinging, with an air of anticipation that filled the spacious venue. The registration area was lively from the get-go, bustling with the kind of vibrant chatter and eager exchanges that you’d expect from a gathering of the world’s crypto enthusiasts.

As people checked in, many made a beeline for the exhibit halls that spanned three floors, where the hum of conversation grew louder. Each booth buzzed with activity, but Bybit’s vibrant display was a particular magnet. There, animated discussions unfolded as our friendly Bybit team members walked curious visitors through Bybit’s journey. TOKEN2049 was a melting pot of ideas and aspirations, with every handshake and exchanged card hinting at potential new ventures.

The energy of TOKEN2049 was palpable, with the second day surpassing even the high spirits of the first. The conference halls swelled with attendees whose excitement was fueled by anticipation of the upcoming panel. Crowds meandered through the venue, discussing the day ahead and speculating on the insights that would soon be shared at one of the day's most awaited sessions: 

Exchanges at the Helm: Driving Crypto from Niche to Mainstream.

Exchanges at the Helm: Driving Crypto from Niche to Mainstream

This panel brought together a distinguished lineup of industry leaders, including Michael Casey, Chairman of Decentralized AI Society (DAIS); Ben Zhou, Bybit’s co-founder and CEO; Vivien Lin, CPO of BingX; Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget; Sonia Shaw, President of CoinW; and Alicia Kao, Managing Director of KuCoin. The room was packed well before the session started, with every available seat filled and many attendees standing at the back, eager not to miss a moment of the discussion. The discourse centered on the transformative role of crypto exchanges in bringing digital currencies into the mainstream.

The panelists dived into critical topics such as regulatory compliance, which has become a cornerstone for the legitimacy and growth of crypto exchanges worldwide. They explored the different strategies required to navigate the regulatory landscapes of various geographic regions, highlighting the need for flexibility and innovation in approach. The integration of AI and blockchain technology was another key area of focus, with discussions on how these technologies can enhance the trading experience by providing greater personalized services and more robust security measures.

Ben focused on the growth trajectories in the crypto market, particularly highlighting the rapid adoption in regions with less mature financial systems, such as Africa, India and parts of Europe. He emphasized the importance of robust compliance measures, stating that while compliance is costly, the cost of noncompliance is significantly higher, necessitating proactive adaptations and enhancements in Bybit’s operations.

Other panelists brought diverse perspectives to the table. Vivien from BingX discussed the challenges and opportunities in developing countries, where unstable monetary systems drive the need for crypto solutions. Gracy from Bitget touched on the importance of product localization to meet the unique demands of different markets, mentioning how crucial it is for success to understand local preferences and regulatory nuances. 

Sonia from CoinW discussed the impacts of recent macroeconomic changes. She anticipates a bullish future driven by fresh institutional interest and improved liquidity in the markets. Alicia from KuCoin explored the way in which the evolving compliance landscape is shaping KuCoin’s strategic plans, emphasizing the need for exchanges to enhance their compliance teams and capabilities in anticipation of stricter regulations.

In discussing the adoption of AI tools in the crypto exchange industry, Ben shared insights into Bybit’s approach to automation and AI. He clarified that Bybit prefers not to label its technology strictly as AI, focusing instead on how AI enhances user experience. He explained that automation plays a critical role at Bybit, especially in delivering quick, essential information to users. For instance, when a new token is listed, users seek immediate details about its legitimacy, who else is investing and its general perception on social platforms like X. Bybit employs what might be termed AI-driven tools to streamline this information delivery, handling routine inquiries and data aggregation with automation that ensures that users receive a swift and accurate breakdown of each token, thereby improving efficiency and user satisfaction by focusing on eliminating mundane tasks through smart technology.

Collectively, the panel addressed the critical role of crypto exchanges in mainstreaming digital currencies, with each speaker emphasizing the need for agility, user-centric innovation and stringent compliance in order to efficiently navigate the complexities of the global financial landscape. The discussion highlighted the industry's commitment to adapting swiftly to technological advancements and regulatory demands, ensuring that digital currencies continue to gain traction in the mainstream financial ecosystem.

The Solana Breakpoint event, co-hosted by Bybit, showcased a thoughtful discussion on the evolving synergy between centralized and decentralized finance, emphasizing Bybit’s strategic role in the ecosystem. Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit, detailed the company’s journey since its inception in 2018, highlighting its shift from a derivatives exchange to a comprehensive crypto platform that supports a variety of products. Unlike other exchanges that may create proprietary ecosystems, Bybit focuses on facilitating access to various blockchain environments, with a significant commitment to supporting the Solana ecosystem.

Ben articulated the philosophy that CeFi and DeFi are complementary, with Bybit acting as a bridge to familiarize users with web3 technologies while still providing the traditional security and user experience of CeFi. He also discussed Bybit's initiative to integrate Solana-based liquid staking tokens (LSTs) such as bbSOL, which allows users both to earn yields and use these tokens as collateral. This strategy not only benefits Solana token holders, but also attracts new users interested in leveraging these benefits. 

Looking ahead, Ben emphasized Bybit’s focus on expanding its web3 wallet capabilities, enhancing security measures to protect users from scams and ensuring a seamless transition for users engaging with multiple blockchain ecosystems.

Bybit x 1Token x SignalPlus: The Crypto Gala Night

Bybit x Hashed x Delphi Digital x Pulsar: HORIZONS 2049

The HORIZONS 2049 event, hosted by Bybit alongside partners Hashed, Pulsar and Delphi Digital, was a resounding success, marked by a vibrant atmosphere of networking and insightful discussions. As attendees mingled with drinks in their hands, the venue buzzed with anticipation for the speeches from notable industry figures. Chris Aruliah, Head of Institutional at Bybit, expressed his gratitude to the attendees and encouraged everyone to make the most of the evening and the spectacular venue. Representatives from Hashed and Pulsar contributed to the congenial ambiance, with insights into their companies’ roles and achievements in the crypto market, emphasizing Pulsar's decade of market-making expertise.

This blog dives deep into the crux of the events, highlighting the buzzworthy topics in the crypto space, keynotes from notable speakers in the industry and the game-changing creativity that took place. Buckle up for a comprehensive recap and a glimpse into the future of crypto!

The Convergence of Web3 Services, DePIN and AI

One of the central themes of TOKEN2049 Dubai was the convergence of web3 services, 

 networks (DePIN) and artificial intelligence (AI). The discussions highlighted the potential of this convergence to revolutionize internet experiences and improve the efficiency and accessibility of services across various sectors.

Decentralized GPU cloud computing, a crucial aspect of DePIN, was punctuated as a key enabler for AI's demanding computational needs. 

, one of the portfolio companies, emphasized the role of decentralized GPU rendering in the web3 ecosystem. By utilizing a decentralized marketplace, Render Network aims to democratize GPU rendering, enabling artists and developers to tap into idle GPU compute power globally. This infrastructure enhances creative possibilities and computational efficiency in the digital landscape.

The integration of AI with blockchain and DePIN is seen as a transformative step toward more efficient, scalable and secure systems. It fosters the growth of a decentralized and democratized technological landscape, opening up new possibilities for innovation and collaboration.

Web3 gaming was a prominent topic at TOKEN2049 Dubai, showcasing the evolution and future of blockchain-based gaming environments. Innovative projects that integrate gaming with decentralized technologies were presented, spotlighting their ability to enhance player engagement and asset ownership.

One noteworthy development in web3 gaming is its infrastructure's cross-chain functionality, which allows assets and data to move seamlessly across different blockchain platforms and broadens the utility and relevance of in-game assets and progress. Scalability solutions such as 

 protocols play a crucial role in managing transaction speeds and fees, ensuring faster and cheaper in-game actions.

The discussions and trends in web3 gaming at TOKEN2049 Dubai showcased the potential of blockchain-based gaming to create immersive experiences and empower players to achieve ownership of their in-game assets.

Bybit at TOKEN2049: The Evolution and Challenges of the Crypto Derivatives Market

The panel at Asia’s premier crypto event was joined by renowned leaders from notable 

 (CEXs), such as Ben Zhou, CEO and Co-founder of Bybit, and Lennix Lai, Chief Commercial Officer at OKX, in a spirited and incisive discussion of the evolution of the crypto derivatives market and its challenges.

Andrew Taureau, Director of Partnerships for APAC/MENA at CoinDesk, kicked off the discussion with a check-in of recent crypto bull market sentiment, which is notably divergent from that during the previous bull cycle. 

Bull Market and Institutional Involvement

The panelists shared common sentiments about the market reaction, primarily agreeing that the recent bull market has been driven by institutions entering the crypto space, unlike the previous retail-driven surge.

Ben Zhou emphasized that “[t]he bull market movement in February and March was primarily driven by institutional players' interest in the space, especially via connections from third-party custodians.” Additionally, Zhou punctuated the stabilizing effect of improved infrastructure and the recent approval of Bitcoin Spot ETFs, both of which fueled investment in the crypto space. He further noted that retail interest in 

 has subsequently propelled the crypto market to new global heights.

OKX’s Lennix Lai accentuated the importance of enhanced system resilience and risk management practices implemented by leading exchanges, advancements that have bolstered user confidence even during periods of market volatility.

Market Sophistication and Evolving Exchange Strategies

Ben and Lennix also highlighted a key trend: the growing sophistication of retail traders. This necessitates a corresponding shift from exchanges. In order to bridge the knowledge gap, exchanges must prioritize robust 

 as an example of facilitating advanced strategies such as spread trading. Options-based hedging products are another point of convergence. However, Lennix emphasized the ongoing challenge of educating retail investors about 

. Even during the previous bull market, some institutions struggled to grasp the intricacies of margin capacity.

As global regulations mature, options markets are poised to become a crucial product around the world. Primarily institutional and professional traders leverage options to hedge their perpetual contract portfolios. When altcoins become underlying assets for options, trade execution via over-the-counter services necessitates strong bilateral agreements.

While derivatives and options inherently carry higher risks for retail traders, this can be mitigated with robust education and user-friendly infrastructure. Platforms like OKX and Bybit demonstrate this with clear user interfaces and progressive unlocking of options functionality that’s based on user experience and trading history.

Ben strongly advocates for gamification as a key to effective education. By transforming product education into an engaging experience, users can more readily grasp complex concepts. The focus should be on clear, simplified explanations that preserve the core value proposition of the product and empower users to make informed decisions.

The Role of Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs)

 (DEXs) for both their user interfaces and the potential for higher leverage. Additionally, as regulatory compliance becomes a growing concern for CEXs, users in restricted regions may find DEXs more appealing.

However, DEXs currently operate in a landscape with uncertain regulations that can pose challenges for user protection. This highlights the importance of CEXs like Bybit and OKX in working collaboratively with regulators to adapt their derivative products. The goal is to contribute toward establishing a regulatory framework that fosters innovation in the cryptocurrency space while simultaneously prioritizing user protection.

One positive development is the exploration by CEXs of web3 solutions, such as 

. These solutions offer users alternative avenues for managing their assets, potentially bridging the gap between the varied features of DEXs and the security benefits associated with regulated CEXs.

 (BGA) is a long-standing, collaborative nonprofit endeavor that unites key partners with a shared objective: leveraging blockchain technology to address real-world challenges and contribute to positive societal outcomes. Through the strategic convening of leaders, innovators and organizations within the blockchain community, BGA fosters a collaborative environment that drives innovation, facilitates action and ultimately works toward a more sustainable and equitable future.

Bybit COO Helen Liu provided insight into the inspiration behind the BGA initiative, noting that "blockchain developers often express feelings of isolation, perceiving web3 as a niche field." Her vision is to "establish a platform that connects them with a new audience unfamiliar with web3. This fosters the development of solutions that benefit and contribute to the entire ecosystem's growth." 

The BGA serves as the embodiment of this vision, charting a course toward a more inclusive world in which the impact of blockchain technology empowers humanity in a more meaningful way.

The evening started when Bybit’s Head of Institution, Eugene Cheung, welcomed guests with an opening speech detailing the importance of Bybit’s partnerships with 

The event was brimming with investors, leaders and decision makers, with opportunities to bring together key players in the investment, trading and startup ecosystem for an unforgettable evening of connections.

In order to celebrate the excellence and dedication within the Bybit community, each award served as a testament to the vital role of individuals who have contributed to the success of Bybit’s ecosystem. As the night wrapped up, the message was clear: Bybit is more than just a platform — it’s a movement toward redefining the future of finance.

TOKEN2049 and Blockchain Life Dubai 2024 provided a dynamic platform for industry stakeholders to network, exchange ideas and explore potential collaborations.
