The world’s largest cryptocurrency event, TOKEN2049, returns to the Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre in Singapore on October 7–8, bringing together 25,000 attendees from 160 countries and over 7,000 companies.
The organizers have announced the first batch of 100 speakers, including Shayne Coplan, founder and CEO of Polymarket; Jeff Yan, CEO of Hyperliquid Labs; Adena Friedman, chair and CEO of Nasdaq; Jenny Johnson, CEO of Franklin Templeton; Eric Trump, executive vice president of The Trump Organization; Raoul Pal, co-founder and CEO of Real Vision; and Tom Lee, managing partner and head of research at Fundstrat.
This year’s conference will focus prominently on institutional participation, with senior executives from leading financial institutions including BlackRock, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Nasdaq, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), and Franklin Templeton attending all sessions.
TOKEN2049 has taken over all five levels of the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre, creating a festival-style venue encompassing thematic sessions, business networking, wellness and leisure, immersive on-site experiences, and exclusive signature hospitality.
During TOKEN2049 Week, over a thousand accompanying events will take place across the city, including industry forums, hackathons, investor meetups, in-person networking sessions, and business social receptions. In the same week, Singapore will also host major events such as the Digital Asset Summit Asia, Sui Basecamp, Network State Conference, Milken Institute Asia Summit, and the Forbes Global CEO Conference. Coinciding with these events is the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix, creating an exceptionally vibrant atmosphere for industry exchange.
Alex Fiskum, co-founder of TOKEN2049, said: "The Dubai event has been rescheduled for 2027, so this year we are dedicating all our resources and focus to the Singapore edition. Market interest is extremely high, with over 70% of booths already booked. Over the coming weeks, we will introduce new agenda tracks and event formats to further enrich the dedicated institutional program. We look forward to gathering with industry peers in Singapore this October for TOKEN2049, the premier annual industry event."
The 2026 event will feature the second edition of TOKEN2049 Origins (a 36-hour hackathon), alongside the relaunch of the NEXUS startup competition. Applications for both events have far exceeded last year’s numbers, with thousands of participants registered overall. This year’s final judges include leading venture capital firms such as Dragonfly, Multicoin, and Maelstrom.
Early bird tickets (Happy Bird tickets) are on sale for a limited time; Singapore TOKEN2049 tickets are expected to sell out before the event opens; a limited number of exhibition booths and brand partnership slots remain available.
