The immense response received from the developer and builder community is very heartening and indicates that we are ready for the next-gen internet. We are grateful to the industry leaders and our partners who always come together and ensure India witnesses a Web3 revolution.”
With the ETH India and Techstars partnership, CoinDCX intends to focus on innovations and building use cases for the mass market adoption of Web3. These collaborations of CoinDCX in the Web3 space are yet another initiative toward CoinDCX’s commitment to realizing the vision of building India’s Web3 ecosystem.
