SocialFi is transforming the digital landscape by integrating decentralized finance with social networking, empowering users through financial incentives and control over their content. Organized by Pop Social, Polygon, Bybit, Crypto Oasis and Ceras Ventures, the Let Web3 Happen in Dubai event highlights SocialFi’s potential to reshape social and financial interactions.
The landscape of social media and finance is on the cusp of a groundbreaking transformation with the advent of social finance (SocialFi). The novel concept emerged as a response to the growing dissatisfaction with traditional social media platforms and the limitations of current financial systems.
SocialFi is not just a technological advancement; it’s a movement toward redressing the imbalances in value distribution and control that have long plagued traditional platforms. In traditional social media, users generate vast amounts of content and engagement yet reap minimal financial rewards. SocialFi addresses these issues head-on by integrating the principles of decentralized finance (DeFi) with social networking, empowering users via financial incentives and giving them greater control over their content and online interactions.
Exploring the potential of SocialFi in Dubai
The emergence of SocialFi signals a pivotal shift toward a more democratic and user-centric digital world. By enabling users to earn from their social activities and offering transparent financial operations, SocialFi is not just a new technology — it's a solution to the longstanding limitations and inequities of the existing social media and financial ecosystems.
The rising interest in SocialFi is set to culminate in a significant event titled “Let Web3 Happen in Dubai: Unleashing the Potential of SocialFi.” Scheduled for Jan. 18, the event aims to be a pivotal gathering in the crypto and blockchain arena, where the theoretical aspects of SocialFi will transition into practical, real-world discussions and applications.
Hosted at One Central, The Offices 4 - Level 10, Bybit HQ in Dubai, the event is organized by Pop Social, Polygon, Bybit, Crypto Oasis and Ceras Ventures.

The Let Web3 Happen in Dubai event aims to bring together visionaries, innovators and thought leaders from across the globe to explore and unleash the untapped potential of SocialFi.

AI and Web3 to redefine social media
Pop Social, an artificial intelligence-powered Web3 social platform, is a prime example of the new SocialFi trend. The platform is designed to empower creators and users by rewarding them with Pop Tokens for engaging with the app. Pop Social’s approach not only incentivizes content creation and curation but also addresses key issues like equitable monetization, content ownership and organic reach — challenges that are prevalent on current social media platforms.

By bridging the gap between traditional social media and the Web3 shared social experience, Pop Social aims to be at the forefront of bringing the next billion users into the Web3 ecosystem. The platform plans to integrate more AI technologies, starting with AI Chatbot copilots designed to boost user engagement and AI creator tools to simplify content creation, making it more accessible for everyone.
With over 15 million unique user-generated content pieces, more than 400,000 users and a daily active user base exceeding 45,000, Pop Social is one of the most prominent examples of SocialFi in practice.
Additionally, Pop Social is integrating cross-chain interoperability protocol (CCIP) technologies for seamless multichain functionality with the goal of creating a Web3 abstracted and gamified social experience.
Events that bring people together are essential for blooming trends and technologies like SocialFi, as they foster collaboration and popularize concepts among a wider audience. Such gatherings pave the way for future advancements by providing a platform for industry leaders to converge, share insights and showcase innovations.
