WEEX at Blockchain Life 2025: Connecting Communities and Driving Innovation in Dubai
Blockchain Life 2025, held on October 28-29 at Festival Arena in Dubai, UAE, gathered over 15,000 attendees from more than 130 countries, making it one of the biggest and most influential blockchain and crypto events worldwide. This event provided the perfect platform for WEEX to showcase its global vision and build stronger ties with the Middle Eastern market. As the Most KOL-Friendly Exchange in 2025, WEEX's participation in Blockchain Life 2025 was not just about visibility, but also about deepening connections with influencers, traders, and key players. Our participation in this event allowed WEEX to cement its role as a significant force in the global crypto community, offering deeper liquidity and bigger opportunities to our growing user base.
WEEX COO's Speech: Key Insights into WEEX’s Growth and Vision for the Future
One of the standout moments at Blockchain Life 2025 was the speech by WEEX's COO, Andrew Weiner. His presentation, titled "Deeper Liquidity, Bigger Whales," highlighted WEEX’s incredible growth trajectory and its vision for revolutionizing global crypto trading. Andrew emphasized how WEEX’s expanding user base and recognition in the industry set it apart as a top-tier exchange. In particular, he touched on our recent achievement of being named Most KOL-Friendly Exchange 2025, an award voted by over 150 leading crypto influencers. Andrew also spotlighted WEEX’s significant performance, notably our inclusion in the CoinGecko Bitcoin Report (October 1, 2025), where WEEX was ranked among the Top 11 centralized exchanges. This accomplishment was driven by our market-leading growth in BTC/USDT open interest and our commitment to offering a robust suite of over 1,800 trading pairs and futures trading with up to 400x leverage. As WEEX continues to redefine the future of both spot and futures trading, Andrew’s speech further solidified WEEX’s position as a global leader in the crypto space.

This included regional marketing and customized campaigns after listing. By supporting emerging startups, WEEX further showcased its commitment to nurturing innovation and entrepreneurship in the crypto space.
In addition to this, WEEX hosted a memorable gathering at the WEEX Dubai Studio, bringing together friends, KOLs, and partners for an unforgettable evening.
