Syscoin, a decentralized and open-source project founded in 2014, has announced a

long-term partnership with WEconomy, the largest Web3 incubator in Asia. The move marks

a significant expansion milestone for the Syscoin ecosystem and adoption across Asia.

The newly founded WEconomy, currently consists of seventy startup projects and DAOs

(Decentralized Autonomous Organizations) from across Asia, including China, Taiwan, and

Vietnam. Its mission is to have 100 projects within its incubator and ready to deploy on time

with the launch of Syscoin’s Layer 2, named Rollux, in Q1 2023. Rollux is the first

EVM-compatible Layer 2 rollup suite currently positioned to go live on mainnet.

“We are pleased to welcome WEconomy into the fold and look forward to making our mark

on Asia, We are on the verge of releasing Rollux, the first EVM-compatible Layer 2 complete

with rollups and our proprietary Proof-of-Data Availability solution, set to be the first of its

kind to launch on mainnet next year. This represents a major breakthrough in scalability

that will usher in mass adoption as we realize the true Web3 experience unhindered by

scaling ceilings in fee,” noted Jagdeep Sidhu, Lead Core Developer & President of the

Syscoin Foundation.”

WEconomy has already been utilizing Syscoin’s NEVM [Layer 1] network and their Rollux

testnet [Layer 2] to prepare its projects to be ready to go live once Rollux launches.

It operates a self-sufficient DAO and continuously assesses the progress of its members for

accountability.

“WEconomy is a large collection of teams, most of whom are Web2 and eager to migrate to

Web3. We recognize the technology of Syscoin is best prepared to help us make this

transition thanks to their Ethereum-compatible Layer 2, which will launch before anyone

else’s. We thank the Syscoin team for all of their help and look forward to continuing to work

together,” said Kering, Head of WEconomy.

Asia is a hotbed of Web3 innovation and home to the largest number of developers within

the space. WEconomy establishes a strategic foothold in this important market. According

to market research and strategy consulting company Emergen Research, the Asia Pacific

market is expected to experience the fastest revenue growth through 2030.
