The jam-packed TOKEN2049 Dubai conference demonstrated the resilience of the global cryptocurrency community, with attendees overcoming travel disruptions to take part in the event.
Continuing to gain momentum, TOKEN2049 Singapore will make a comeback in September 2024 as the largest international gathering of the year, with an expected attendance of 20,000.
Dubai, UAE — May 1, 2024 — TOKEN2049, the leading crypto event, achieved unprecedented success during its inaugural conference in Dubai, which took place from April 18-19, as part of TOKEN2049 Week.
Throughout the event, participants were treated to a wide range of panel discussions, keynote speeches, workshops, and exclusive networking opportunities, despite facing torrential rain. Tickets for TOKEN2049 Dubai sold out almost three weeks before the event, with an expected attendance of 10,000. Despite the UAE experiencing its heaviest rainfall in 75 years, the conference was met with a full house.
Alex Fiskum, Co-Founder of TOKEN2049, stated, “This week, we witnessed firsthand the determination of the crypto industry. Our team worked tirelessly to ensure that the conference proceeded smoothly, upholding the highest standards of hospitality for our attendees. Our program went ahead as planned, and our doors opened to welcome attendees to a comfortable, immersive, and action-packed event. We are incredibly proud of everyone who contributed to making TOKEN2049 Dubai an overwhelming success.”
TOKEN2049 Dubai welcomed 90% international attendees from over 160 countries worldwide. The global cryptocurrency community came out in full force, showcasing Dubai’s growing reputation as a hub for crypto innovation. The diverse representation solidified TOKEN2049 as the premier industry event in the crypto calendar, not to be missed.
Early travel disruptions in the week resulted in numerous speakers and attendees being redirected across the Middle East. However, they overcame significant obstacles to attend and participate in TOKEN2049 Dubai. Among the 200+ prominent industry figures who took the stage to share their insights, discuss the latest topics in Web3, and unveil exciting news announcements were Pavel Durov, the visionary CEO of Telegram; Richard Teng, CEO of Binance; Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether; and Arthur Hayes, Co-Founder of BitMEX.
Noteworthy highlights include a joint announcement by Tether and Telegram on stage, revealing that USDT will be launching on The Open Network (TON) and Telegram wallet; Gavin Wood from Polkadot introducing a new JAM chain graypaper; Berachain announcing a collaboration with Google Cloud; and Telos unveiling a partnership with Ponos Technology to develop a hardware-accelerated Ethereum L2 zkEVM network, among many other groundbreaking announcements.
Fiskum added, “We have received overwhelmingly positive feedback from all participants at TOKEN2049 Dubai. Inspired by this success, we now shift our focus to prepare for the industry’s largest event of the year — TOKEN2049 Singapore, taking place on September 18-19 before the Formula 1 Grand Prix weekend. TOKEN2049 Singapore will welcome 20,000 attendees at the iconic Marina Bay Sands, continuing to set new standards for the industry.”
