Consensus Miami

May 5–7, 2026Miami, USA

Consensus is CoinDesk's flagship North American conference and, for 2026, makes its debut in Miami — self-billed as 'The Super Bowl of Blockchain.' With 20,000+ senior leaders from crypto, finance, tech, and policy converging for three days, it is unambiguously the largest crypto event in the Americas. The 2026 edition centres on three forces reshaping global finance: on-chain infrastructure, institutional adoption, and AI agents operating in economic markets. Consensus is where narratives are set, funding rounds are announced, and the industry takes stock of where it's headed.

ETHPrague

May/June 2026 (exact dates TBC)Prague, Czech Republic

ETHPrague is Central Europe's developer-first Ethereum conference, held in Prague's grand Municipal House and firmly positioned at the technical end of the Web3 event spectrum. Three days of hands-on deep dives, Ethereum-focused workshops, and a spirited hackathon draw core builders, researchers, and ecosystem founders who want substance over spectacle. The event's organisers lean into Ethereum's Solarpunk ideals — sustainability, decentralisation, and using blockchain to solve real social and environmental challenges — giving ETHPrague a philosophical dimension that sets it apart from commercially-driven conferences.

Dutch Blockchain Week

May 2026 (exact dates TBC)Amsterdam, Netherlands

Dutch Blockchain Week is the Netherlands' premier annual blockchain and Web3 gathering, built around a two-day Dutch Blockchain Summit anchored by a full week of ecosystem events across Amsterdam. Hackathons, investor forums, recruitment events, blockchain awards, and dozens of community meetups hosted by ecosystem partners make the week unusually comprehensive for its size. The Netherlands' progressive regulatory environment, strong fintech heritage, and Amsterdam's position as a European tech hub give the event an institutional credibility that belies its community-first roots.

Proof of Talk

May/June 2026 (exact dates TBC)Paris, France

Proof of Talk is a high-level Parisian summit that bridges traditional finance and Web3, curating an intimate gathering of founders, institutional investors, policymakers, and media for serious deal-making and policy dialogue. The 2026 edition focuses on digital asset regulation, real-world asset tokenisation, and the future of global finance — topics where Paris, as both an EU regulatory hub and a global financial centre, provides a uniquely relevant backdrop. Carefully curated panels, keynotes, and networking lounges are designed to encourage substantive conversation rather than performative content.
