European Blockchain Convention 2026
2026-09-16 09:00 - 2026-09-17 18:00 (Europe/Madrid) | Palau de Congressos de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain
European Blockchain Convention 2026 returns to Barcelona on 16 and 17 September, at the Palau de Congressos de Catalunya. It is the largest blockchain gathering in southern Europe and one of the few on the continent where policy, institutional finance and protocol engineering share the same floor.
Organisers expect more than 6,000 attendees and over 300 speakers, alongside hundreds of exhibiting companies. The programme historically leans toward European regulatory reality rather than pure protocol talk, which makes it useful for anyone tracking how MiCA and successor frameworks translate into operating constraints for exchanges and custodians.
For readers following the custody question specifically, the European regulatory approach sits in useful contrast to the American one we covered when the SEC sent its custody rewrite to the White House.

TOKEN2049 Singapore 2026
2026-10-07 09:00 - 2026-10-08 18:00 (Asia/Singapore) | Marina Bay Sands, Singapore, Singapore
TOKEN2049 Singapore 2026 takes place on 7 and 8 October at Marina Bay Sands. It is the largest crypto conference in Asia and, by attendance, one of the largest in the world.
Organisers expect more than 25,000 attendees from over 160 countries, with 300 speakers, 500 exhibitors and around 7,000 companies represented. More than 60% of attendees are reported to hold C-level positions, which is why the conference functions as a deal venue as much as a content programme.
The main stage is only part of it. TOKEN2049 Week runs 5 to 11 October across Singapore, with dozens of independent side events, launches and closed-door dinners. For most attendees the side programme is where the week’s actual value sits.
Singapore’s regulatory position makes it the default Asian venue for institutional crypto, and the contrast with India’s unresolved framework is stark — we covered that gap in our guide to India crypto tax and the VDA framework.

Future Blockchain Summit x Fintech Surge 2026
2026-10-08 10:00 - 2026-10-11 18:00 (Asia/Dubai) | Dubai Harbour, Dubai Harbour, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Future Blockchain Summit 2026 runs from 8 to 11 October in Dubai, co-located with Fintech Surge. The two events share a floor deliberately: the audience for digital asset infrastructure and the audience for payments infrastructure now overlap almost completely.
Dubai’s position matters here. The emirate has built a regulatory framework specifically to attract digital asset businesses, and the summit is where that policy meets the companies operating under it. For anyone assessing where Gulf capital is being deployed in Web3 and AI infrastructure, this is the calendar’s most concentrated week.
Gulf sovereign money is increasingly visible in the sector’s largest rounds, including the one behind the Crusoe valuation, where Abu Dhabi’s Mubadala Capital participated.

India Blockchain Week 2026
2026-11-01 09:00 - 2026-11-02 18:00 (Asia/Kolkata) | Fairmont Mumbai, Mumbai, India
India Blockchain Week 2026 takes place on 1 and 2 November at the Fairmont Mumbai. The change of city is the story.
After three editions in Bangalore, IBW moves to Mumbai for its fourth. Bangalore is India’s engineering centre; Mumbai is its financial one. Moving the country’s flagship Web3 conference from one to the other says something specific about who the organisers now expect to attend, and it tracks a broader shift from builder-led events toward capital-led ones.
The move also lands into an unresolved policy environment. India taxes virtual digital assets at a flat 30% with 1% TDS and no loss set-off, while having no custody framework for the funds and advisers who would use one. Our explainer on India crypto tax and the VDA framework covers what is settled and what is not, and we reported the cancelled parliamentary hearing on virtual digital assets that pushed the framework decision back again.
For anyone following Indian crypto policy rather than global protocol news, this is the most important event on the domestic calendar.

Bitcoin Amsterdam 2026
2026-11-05 09:00 - 2026-11-06 18:00 (Europe/Amsterdam) | SugarFactory, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Bitcoin Amsterdam 2026 is scheduled for 5 and 6 November at SugarFactory in Amsterdam, with around 6,000 attendees expected. It is the European edition of the BTC Inc conference series and the continent’s main Bitcoin-specific gathering, as distinct from the general-purpose Web3 conferences that dominate the calendar.
The programme is narrower than a multi-chain event and better for it: mining economics, custody, Lightning, self-custody tooling and the regulatory treatment of Bitcoin specifically. If you want depth on one asset rather than breadth across fifty, this is the event.
Custody remains the recurring theme at Bitcoin conferences, and the practical trade-offs are covered in our explainer on custodial versus non-custodial storage.
Date note: some listings show 13-14 November. The 5-6 November dates here follow the official event site. Confirm with the organiser before booking travel.

Blockchain Futurist Conference Florida 2026
2026-11-18 09:00 - 2026-11-19 18:00 (America/New_York) | DAER at Hard Rock Guitar Hotel & Casino, Fort Lauderdale, United States
Blockchain Futurist Conference brings its tenth edition to Florida on 18 and 19 November, at DAER inside the Hard Rock Guitar Hotel & Casino in Fort Lauderdale.
Futurist is run by Untraceable, the team behind ETHToronto and ETHWomen, and it carries their character: less corporate than the large institutional conferences, heavier on builders, community and side programming. The Florida edition complements their Toronto event, which ran in July.
Ten editions makes it one of the longer-running independent conferences in the sector, which is itself unusual in an industry where events appear and vanish with the cycle.
Date note: some listings show 17-18 November. The dates here follow the official ticketing listing. Confirm with the organiser before booking travel.

Blockchain Life 2026
2026-12-01 10:00 - 2026-12-02 19:00 (Asia/Dubai) | Festival Arena, Dubai Festival City, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Blockchain Life 2026 holds its 17th edition in Dubai on 1 and 2 December, at Festival Arena in Dubai Festival City.
Organisers expect more than 15,000 attendees from over 130 countries, with 200-plus speakers and a similar number of exhibiting companies across multiple stages. That scale places it among the largest crypto events of the year and the largest in the Gulf.
Blockchain Life has a distinct character: heavier on mining, trading and market infrastructure than on protocol research, with a substantial contingent from Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Gulf. For anyone tracking where mining capacity and OTC flow actually sit, the exhibition floor is more informative than the stages.
Mining economics are also the backdrop to one of the year’s larger pivots, covered in our piece on the Crusoe valuation, where a flared-gas Bitcoin miner became AI infrastructure.

GITEX GLOBAL 2026
2026-12-07 10:00 - 2026-12-11 18:00 (Asia/Dubai) | Dubai Exhibition Centre, Expo City Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
GITEX GLOBAL 2026 runs from 7 to 11 December at the Dubai Exhibition Centre inside Expo City Dubai. Two things about that sentence are new.
This is the 46th edition and the first held outside Dubai World Trade Centre in 45 years. The event has also moved from its long-standing October slot into December. Anyone working from last year’s calendar will get both the date and the venue wrong.
The opening day, 7 December, is the GITEX Scale Summit, a leadership programme covering AI economies, policy and investment. The main exhibition floor runs 8 to 11 December.
GITEX is the largest technology exhibition in the Middle East and Africa and functions as the region’s principal meeting point for enterprise technology, government digital programmes and the AI infrastructure buildout. The scarcity of power and interconnection that constrains that buildout is the subject of our piece on the Crusoe valuation.
TechToken has been a media partner across the GITEX series.
