Bitcoin 2026 Schedule: Every Speaker At The World’s Biggest Bitcoin Event

Over 40,000 enthusiasts will descend on Las Vegas for an epic three-day celebration of the world’s largest cryptocurrency.

(Bitcoin 2026)

Last year’s Bitcoin Conference was nothing short of monumental. A 35,000-person crowd comprising staunch whales, newly initiated HODLers, and the orange gold-curious descended upon Las Vegas, where they witnessed a stacked list of keynote speakers. set a Guinness World Record for Bitcoin transactions, and partook in Sin City’s unparalleled menu of indulgences.

Bitcoin 2026 is poised to be even bigger and better. The world’s largest annual gathering dedicated exclusively to Bitcoin expects to welcome more than 40,000 participants to the Venetian Convention and Expo Center. Well over 500 industry leaders, policymakers, cultural icons, and other speakers will give keynotes on an extraordinarily broad range of topics, from U.S. legislation and AI integration to real estate and art.

Many attendees will clamor to see Michael Saylor, the founder and executive chairman of Strategy who used nearly every financial instrument available to transform his publicly traded company into a crypto fortress that has over $60 billion in Bitcoin on its books—more than any other institution. Afroman—the weed-positive rapper who is perhaps best known for his hazy 2001 hit “Because I Got High”—will also appear on the premier Nakamoto stage like Saylor. Donning his signature star-spangled suit, the distinguished hip-hop artist has become something of a free speech icon in the wake of a saga involving Ohio sheriff’s deputies, who raided his home, found nothing, and unsuccessfully sued him after he cut security footage of the raid into viral music videos.

Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether—the world’s largest stablecoin issuer—will give a speech on Bitcoin’s role in the global financial system that’s sure to be dissected for days after the conference wraps up. While Jack Dorsey hasn’t been given a timeslot or stage on the schedule below, the Bitcoin Conference has confirmed through numerous official channels that the Twitter and Block Inc. (formerly Square) founder will also make an appearance. As the Block point-of-sale system recently gave merchants the ability to accept Bitcoin without any service fees, Dorsey will likely discuss the importance of BTC’s wide adoption as a form of payment for goods and services.
