SINGAPORE, October 6,2026 — TOKEN2049 Singapore has fully sold out ahead of its return to Marina Bay Sands on 7–8 October, with 25,000 attendees from 160 countries set to attend the event, billed as the world's largest crypto gathering. This year's edition features 250 speakers across six stages, alongside 500 exhibitors.

This year's speaker lineup includes Shayne Coplan, Founder and CEO of Polymarket; Jeff Yan, CEO of Hyperliquid Labs; Eric Trump; Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, Co-Founders of Gemini; Balaji Srinivasan; Adena Friedman, Chair and CEO of Nasdaq; Jenny Johnson, CEO of Franklin Templeton; Arthur Hayes, CIO of Maelstrom; Tom Lee, CIO at Fundstrat and Chairman of Bitmine; and Raoul Pal, Co-Founder and CEO of Real Vision. They will appear alongside hundreds of leading founders, CEOs, investors and builders from around the world. The lineup places executives from established financial institutions such as Nasdaq and Franklin Templeton on the same stages as founders of crypto-native firms like Polymarket and Hyperliquid Labs, spanning both sides of the industry in a single programme.

Alex Fiskum, Co-Founder of TOKEN2049, commented: "We've fully sold out ahead of the event and have an incredible programme lined up – our best yet. Six stages will run in parallel across the two days, with some major announcements set to be made. It's been a full year since our last TOKEN2049 experience. We can't wait to welcome the global industry back to Singapore this week."

Taking over all five floors of Marina Bay Sands, TOKEN2049 will transform the venue into a city-within-a-city designed for networking, collaboration and discovery. Across the six stages, participants will hear from leading founders, investors and institutions shaping the industry, while dedicated lounges, co-working hubs and networking zones will provide spaces for conversations and connections beyond the stage program. With organizers teasing major announcements across days of parallel programming, the stage content is set to be one of the focal points as the event unfolds.

TOKEN2049 Institutional will debut on 8 October, bringing together 250 senior leaders from global finance and digital assets for a private gathering. Speakers include representatives from Goldman Sachs, BlackRock, Morgan Stanley, the Solana Foundation and Franklin Templeton. The debut adds a dedicated institutional track running alongside the main conference stages, concentrating senior representation from firms such as Goldman Sachs, BlackRock and Morgan Stanley in a private setting.

The event will also feature a city pavilion for the first time. The Dubai Pavilion will bring together ten exhibitors, including Dubai's Department of Economy and Tourism (DET), the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), real estate developers OMNIYAT and Emaar, and Prima Luxury. The participation of a government department and a regulator among the exhibitors extends the event floor beyond companies to public-sector institutions.

On the competition front, the NEXUS Startup Competition will see finalists compete for a US$250,000 prize, with judges from Dragonfly, Multicoin and Maelstrom. The TOKEN2049 Origins Hackathon returns for its second edition, gathering leading developers for a 36-hour sprint with a US$150,000 prize pool. Together, the two competitions carry a combined US$400,000 in prizes.

Across the venue, TOKEN2049's signature experiences will return, spanning wellness, sport and entertainment, complemented by world-class hospitality throughout the event.

TOKEN2049 Week kicks off Singapore's busiest week of the year, with hundreds of side events across the city leading up to the Grand Prix weekend. The conference will also welcome four-time Formula One World Champion Max Verstappen, along with fellow World Champions Lando Norris and Jenson Button.

TOKEN2049 is supported by a global roster of partners, with Title Sponsors including OKX, Sui, BloFin, Mesh, BingX, TRON and Solana, together with more than 500 exhibitors.
