\n

Crypto and digital assets conferences have become a cornerstone of the Web3 industry, serving as useful networking events and forums for knowledge-exchange and product promotion. Often spread over the course of a weekend, and sometimes an entire week, these annual events offer a chance to catch up with the industry\u2019s key tastemakers, builders and regulators, and provide an insight into the latest developments shaping the crypto and digital assets landscape.<\/p>\n

With the U.S. regulatory crack down on crypto following a series of high-profile implosions like FTX, Alameda, and Silvergate, the spotlight shifted earlier this year to Asia with a number of well-attended events already like WebX in Japan, KBW in Korea and Token2049 in Singapore, all taking the industry center stage and attracting a lot of folks from the U.S. and Europe.<\/p>\n

It looks like the next wave of crypto and digital assets conferences will rock Europe this autumn. Like Nigel Tufnel of Spinaltap’s Marshall Amplifier, this top 10 list goes up to 11. Let\u2019s take a closer look these fixtures and the rock stars that you will hear from.<\/p>\n

1. CCDAS, London, October 2-3<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Hosted by CCData (formerly CryptoCompare), CCDAS is one of Europe\u2019s leading institutional summits for crypto assets. Taking place in the capital\u2019s Old Billingsgate on the same timetable as SmartCon, this year\u2019s agenda includes FCA\u2019s Head of Capital Markets Helen Boyd, Tyrone Lobban, Managing Director Onyx by J.P. Morgan, Wilshire\u2019s CEO Mark Makepeace, and offering a City of London perspective with the new Lord Mayor and polymath Michael Mainelli. The event kicks off with a VIP networking event at a secret London location on October 2, followed by a programme spread across two main stages.<\/p>\n

2. SmartCon, Barcelona, October 2-3<\/h2>\n

Set to get underway in the Catalan capital on October 2, the Chainlink organised SmartCon features the usual roster of prominent speakers, such as Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazaron, ex-Google CEO Eric Schmidt, and ANZ Bank\u2019s Director of Digital Asset Services Anurag Soin.

Over 2,000 people will attend the event, with Binance co-founder Yi He calling Turkey \u201ca dynamic destination for attendees to learn more about blockchain and be part of the new era of finance.\u201dAnd if you\u2019re already in the area, remember to stay for the Staking Summit (Nov 10-11), a dedicated event that unites all PoS infrastructure actors in one place: protocols, validators, institutions and more.<\/p>\n

5. Digital Asset Week, London, November 14-15<\/h2>\n

Digital Asset Week returns to London for its regular fixture following San Francisco in May and Singapore in September and is one of the City’s longest standing (security) tokenization conferences.

7. Paris Blockchain Week, April 8-12 2024<\/h2>\n

The fifth edition of Paris Blockchain Week will focus on familiar topics such as open finance, AI, corporate web3 and enterprise blockchain, with a three-day hackathon and one-day talent fair preceding the official opening day.

\n PBW
\n <\/fbs-ticker> will, as usual, feature thought-provoking exhibitions, workshops, networking events and more.<\/p>\n

8. Token2049, Dubai, April 18-19 2024, Singapore, September 18-19 2024)<\/h2>\n

Token2049 is a split-site crypto powwow hosted in Dubai in April and Singapore in September. Serving as a soapbox and networking platform for web3 founders, executives, entrepreneurs, investors, developers and global media, it\u2019s the place to be if you want to track industry developments or secure vital funding for your startup. While the Dubai agenda will feature maverick BitMEX founder Arthur Hates, Gemeni CEO Tyler Winklevoss and Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire, Singapore\u2019s lineup hasn\u2019t yet been confirmed. With over 10,000 attendees, 300+ speakers, 5,000+ companies, and 400+ side events spread across both locations, Token2049 is an absolute staple of the Web3 calendar.<\/p>\n

9. Consensus, Austin, May 29-31 2024<\/h2>\n

Consensus claims to be the largest and most influential gathering in the cryptocurrency, blockchain and web3 community, and whether that claim\u2019s true or not, it\u2019s definitely earned a spot at the top table. Taking over Austin in late May, the three-day blitz welcomes developers, investors, founders, brands, policymakers and more. Although the full agenda is yet to be announced, expect hands-on workshops aimed at solving industry challenges and luminaries from the worlds of metaverse gaming, open finance, Artificial Intelligence and policy.<\/p>\n

10. Permissionless, Salt Lake City, October 9-11 2024<\/h2>\n

Now in its third year, Permissionless is set to build on the success of its predecessors when it hits Salt Lake City next October. Catering to crypto enthusiasts and builders, the DeFi event will feature keynotes from industry leaders, panels, networking events and activations. Last year\u2019s Permissionless, held in Austin, Texas, saw OKX President Hong Fang deliver a rousing keynote address on the current environment and outlook for web3, though 2024\u2019s speakers are yet to be announced.<\/p>\n

11. Ethereum Community Conference, Brussels, TBC 20204<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Ethereum Community Conference (EthCC) date next year in Brussels has not yet been announced, but this is one to put on your watch list. It is the largest annual conference dedicated to the Ethereum ecosystem and typically hosts prominent figures from the world\u2019s most used blockchain ecosystem. In 2023, Polygon\u2019s Jordi Baylina, 0x Labs’ Megan White and 1inch\u2019s Gustav Arentoft added stardust to proceedings. Might Vitalik himself make an appearance in Brussels next year?<\/p>\n

And Finally<\/h2>\n

As the crypto and digital assets industry continues to evolve, in-person and virtual conferences offer valuable opportunities to stay informed, network and contribute to the growth of the Web3 ecosystem.<\/p>\n

The word on the street is that some commercial conferences are struggling with sponsors and paid ticket revenues in this difficult (global) economy.<\/p>\n

Pay attention to the quality communities who appear impervious to market machinations and keep their heads down building useful stuff. Find them, mark your calendar, make the pilgrimage, and make sure you stay in these loops.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
