Where Global Leaders in Web3 Meet

With major projects like Syndicate, Aerodrome, EigenCloud, Alchemy, and Narrative under one roof, the gathering went beyond a typical meetup—it became a forum for collaboration, where participants explored the next chapter of the Web3 ecosystem.

· Syndicate – Building infrastructure that enables communities to own and control their networks, sequencers, and economic structures through Smart Rollups and Smart Sequencers.
·
Aerodrome – A leading community-first DEX and the launch partner for the SYND token.
·
Alchemy – The foundational developer platform powering Web3 applications and infrastructure.
·
EigenCloud – A next-generation infrastructure layer enabling apps, agents, and AVSs to securely validate any data or event.
·
Narrative – Investor and ecosystem partner supporting Syndicate’s expansion in Korea and across Asia.

The Symbol of ‘Community-First’: The SYND Token Launch

The event also highlighted Syndicate’s core message of “Community-First.” With the launch of its mainnet, Syndicate unveiled the SYND token on Aerodrome (Base)—a community-led token launch model signaling a broader industry shift “from speculation to participation, from investors to communities.” The Syndicate team emphasized that this was not just another token launch, but the first moment where communities truly own the network. The choice to deploy on Base symbolized open participation and ownership, aligning with the ethos of open infrastructure. Rather than a network governed by a few validators or investors, Syndicate represents a new kind of participatory network, where communities themselves drive growth, governance, and rewards. To mark the occasion, 20,000 SYND tokens were airdropped to on-site participants alongside a lucky draw for Apple devices. Each attendee received a unique code card granting access to the SYND token claim on Base—an experience that brought Syndicate’s community-driven vision to life in real time.

Narrative × Syndicate: Bridging Korea and the Global Web3 Ecosystem

The evening went far beyond networking—it was a tangible expression of Syndicate’s community-driven vision, experienced firsthand by attendees. As an investor and ecosystem partner, Narrative played a pivotal role in connecting global teams with Korean founders, builders, and investors, serving as a bridge for Web3 innovation between Korea and the world. The event showcased both Syndicate’s deep interest in the Korean market and the Korean community’s strong alignment with Syndicate’s “community-owned network” philosophy. Moving forward, Narrative will continue to support Syndicate in expanding its global footprint, helping community-first innovators at the intersection of AI and Web3 accelerate their growth and impact.

As an investor and a partner, Narrative actively supports the growth of high-potential companies.
