Neeraj Khandewal, Founder of CoinDCX, said, “Technologies evolve for hundreds of years. And the internet is just 30 years old, where most benefits are yet to be built and harnessed. I believe Web 3.0, powered by blockchain technology, is the next Internet revolution that empowers the common man. As the first crypto unicorn of India, we believe in leading this technological revolution of Web 3.0. With UNFOLD 2022, we wish to emphasize on the role Web3 will play in people’s lives. Our flagship event will help shape conversations in making India a global hub in crypto, blockchain and Web3.”
“BuidlersTribe’s pitch competition program has led to over $2.5mn funding in the last few months. With 1100+ startups on buidl.so, we’re expecting this program to attract some of the best founders in web3”, said Pareen Lathia, Co-founder of BuidlersTribe
Speaking on this collaboration Denver, COO at Devfolio said, “Devfolio is globally known to be one of the best community of builders. Historically, Devfolio has hosted hundreds of hackathons and events which have led to builders finding new jobs, learning new technology and even starting companies! We’re looking forward to the UNFOLD 2022 event to attract more builders to web3 as they get in-person experience of what it’s like to build for the decentralized web.”
The three-day-long event will see over 500 participate in person at the conference, 250+ developers join 48 hours of the hackathon, and over 150 startups are expected to engage on Demo Day with the Web 3.0 investors community.

UNFOLD 2022, an annual event in the Web3 space is yet another initiative toward CoinDCX’s commitment to realise the vision of building India’s crypto/web3 ecosystem. This event will act as a guiding path into the future of the internet and will pave the way for India to become a global leader in Web3.
