About LBANK Labs

At LBank Labs, we thrive on the power of connections and believe in fostering strong relationships within the industry. We're not your average exchange; while LBank boasts a massive global user base of over 9 million, LBank Labs operates independently in both structure and approach, using a venture fund model to drive our investments in funds, primary projects, and liquid projects. With a protocol- and exchange-agnostic mindset, we're committed to supporting projects through direct funding, acceleration, incubation, and unparalleled networking within our web. And with $100 million in AUM currently under our belt, we're well-equipped to help startups take flight. But that's not all—our Fund of Fund network, which includes a whopping 12 funds as of Q1 2023, opens doors to direct communication with $1 billion+ AUM. And with operations and offices spanning 7 global regions—from San Francisco to Dubai to Shanghai and beyond—we're in a prime position to keep building this network together. LBank Labs prides itself on its bold and innovative approach to identifying the most promising opportunities in Web3. Unlike other industry players who tend to view the sector through the narrow lens of tech stacks or overhyped buzzwords like gamefi and defi, we take a more nuanced and sophisticated approach. We firmly believe that the next bull run will be driven by projects with a proven track record of strong adoption and recognition, and we prioritize projects that demonstrate: A robust platform that encourages user adoption and engagement A standard benchmark for others to follow An ecosystem that lays the foundation for sustainable growth and development In light of these criteria, we have developed the PSE thesis, which represents a departure from traditional investment frameworks and highlights our commitment to identifying the most promising opportunities in Web3.
