Dubai-based Crypto Market Maker and Investor DWF Labs has launched a $250 million liquid fund aimed at accelerating the growth of medium and large blockchain projects and driving real-world adoption of Web3 technology.
DWF Labs is set to sign two important investment transactions worth $25 million and $10 million as part of the fund.
The initiative aims to expand the crypto landscape by providing strategic investments of $10 to $50 million in projects that could drive actual adoption, according to a March 24 announcement shared with the Cointelegraph.

According to Andrei Grachev, managing partner at DWF Labs, the fund will focus on blockchain projects with “ease of use and discoverability.”
“We are focusing our support on mid-to-large projects – tokens and platforms that normally serve as entry points for retail users,” Grachev told Cointelegraph, adding:
“But great technology and utilities aren’t enough. Users need to first discover these projects, understand their value, and build trust.”
“We believe that strategic capital, coupled with practical ecosystem development, is key to unleashing the next wave of growth in the industry,” he said.
Similar incentives can bring more capital to develop blockchain projects and lead to more sophisticated blockchain use cases. The fund comes a month later, also known as Defai Agents, as the 0G Foundation launches a $88 million ecosystem fund to accelerate the project to create AI-powered Decentralized Finance (DEFI) applications and autonomous agents.

New Blockchain Users Need a Trusted Infrastructure: DWF Lab
New users need a robust and functional infrastructure when interacting with their initial blockchain-based applications.
“This approach means that once new users enter the space, trusted infrastructure, strong communities, meaningful use cases are not friction, not friction.
“It’s about creating actual, sustainable recruitment conditions and supporting the next wave of users staying, not just on-chain.”
To ensure that the project is launched with a solid infrastructure, each investment will provide an ecosystem growth strategy, including developing the lending market, amplifying the brand’s presence, supporting the growth of the project’s stubcoin and supporting definitional activities to “deepen liquidity.”

Other industry leaders have denounced the friction of blockchain applications because they have no mainstream adopters.
According to Chintan Turakhia, senior engineering director at Coinbase, the current user’s onboarding process is complicated and plagued by friction points.
Speaking only to Ethcc’s Cointelegraph, Turakhia said.
“Our goal is to bring in the next billion users, let’s start with just 100 million people. We need to get all these friction points.”
Some of the most pressing friction points are traded over the network in the complex seed stages of wallet setup, transaction fee payments, and blockchain native token purchases.
