In Episode 184 of Web3 with Sam Kamani, I sit down with Jens, co-founder of Kairon Labs, a leading market maker specializing in token liquidity provision and launch strategies. Jens shares his experience on how Kairon Labs helps projects with successful TGEs (Token Generation Events), provides liquidity, and offers strategic advice for projects entering the market. This episode was recorded live at Token2049 in Marina Bay Sands, where the energy and enthusiasm for Web3 innovation is palpable.

We dive into key industry trends, the challenges of launching tokens, and what sets Kairon Labs apart from competitors. Jens also provides his insights on the meme coin surge, the concentration of liquidity in major assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, and his contrarian view on the need for projects to delay launches until they are fully ready.
