Over the past decade, the crypto community has gathered at Consensus to explore the potential of the industry. However, this year's event will be different, as the future is now becoming a reality. Real-world assets are being integrated into the blockchain, stablecoins are emerging as a crucial component of global commerce, and prediction markets are transforming probability into a tradable asset class. Institutions that previously dismissed the industry, such as Morgan Stanley and Nasdaq, are now participating in the conversation.
The speaker roster for Consensus 2026 features a who's who of traditional finance and crypto, including Mastercard, PayPal, and T. Rowe Price, demonstrating the growing convergence of the two industries. The event will focus on the implications of 24/7 markets, the role of stablecoins, and the tokenization of assets. With over 20,000 attendees expected, Consensus 2026 will be a working summit for industry leaders to shape the future of the industry.
