What 0x Labs does

0x Labs is a Web3 advisory firm founded in 2022 that operates two practice areas: securing grant funding from crypto foundations for blockchain projects, and advising companies on the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA). The firm is operationally based in Paris with legal domicile in the UAE (Dubai) and serves a globally distributed base of 900+ clients spanning GameFi, DeFi, Infrastructure, AI, RWA tokenization, and entertainment verticals. Core distribution rests on reported relationships with 450+ grant-managing foundations, 600+ KOLs/market makers/launchpads, and a claimed 90%+ grant application success rate derived from review of 6,000+ project decks and tracking of 300+ grant programs.

The service portfolio is organized into four tiers: a Tokenization Audit, a Full Tokenization engagement (3-5 months, service fees plus equity participation), a Liquidity Sprint (monthly retainer), and ongoing Advisory subscriptions. In the grant funding practice, the firm has helped clients raise $18M+ cumulatively at an average of ~$200K per client. In tokenization, engagements include equity-aligned upside on the projects advised. The firm operates as a professional services boutique with approximately 12-20 employees, led by founder and CEO Corentin Cadieu alongside named functional heads in Operations and Sales.

The business model blends transactional success fees on grant capital, fixed-fee tokenization engagements with equity kickers, and recurring advisory retainers. The firm's strategic trajectory since mid-2024 has been a pivot from grant-only services into the higher-value RWA advisory market, supported by event-driven distribution (12 clients placed in the Paris Blockchain Week Top 100, March 2025) and a UAE governing-law alignment with tokenization-friendly regulation. The addressable market for the firm is roughly $1.7B/year in Web3 grants and $27B in RWA tokenization growing approximately 600% per year.

Broad incumbents

• Polygon Labs: Major blockchain ecosystem and foundation that runs one of the largest Web3 grant programs — a key partner of 0x Labs but also a potential disintermediator if it scales in-house applicant support.
• ConsenSys: Largest Web3 software and consulting firm (MetaMask, Infura, Linea) — overlaps with 0x Labs on strategy and tokenization advisory from a much larger, broader portfolio position.

Direct peers

• Tokeny: Enterprise-grade tokenization platform for issuing and managing digital securities — competes with 0x Labs' RWA tokenization advisory on the same end-customers (asset issuers, funds, real estate, private equity).
• TokenMinds: Web3 marketing, development, and advisory agency offering tokenomics, GTM, and growth services to blockchain projects — directly comparable to 0x Labs' strategy, tokenomics, and marketing/communication consulting lines.
• Messari: Crypto research, data, and advisory firm that provides market intelligence and strategic guidance to Web3 projects and institutional clients — comparable on the strategy/research advisory side and as a go-to information source for token issuers.
• Securitize: Tokenization platform focused on regulated securities and real-world assets — directly comparable to 0x Labs on the RWA tokenization side, though Securitize is platform-led vs. 0x Labs' advisory-led model.
• HashKey Capital: Crypto-native investment and advisory firm providing capital, ecosystem access, and strategic guidance to Web3 projects — comparable to 0x Labs in providing both funding access and go-to-market advisory.
• Outlier Ventures: Web3 accelerator and advisory firm that supports blockchain startups with strategy, tokenomics, and ecosystem connections — overlapping heavily with 0x Labs' strategy consulting, tokenomics, and ecosystem-connection service lines.
• DaoMaker: Web3 launchpad and fundraising platform that helps early-stage crypto projects raise capital and access ecosystem support — directly comparable to 0x Labs in connecting projects with non-dilutive funding sources across blockchain ecosystems.
• Blockchain Founders Group: Web3 venture builder and advisory firm supporting early-stage blockchain startups with strategy, fundraising, and ecosystem access — overlapping with 0x Labs across grant/fundraising advisory and go-to-market consulting.
