Binance announced Blockchain Week 2026 will take place November 28 to 29 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok, Thailand. The two-day event will address Bitcoin institutionalization, stablecoin payments, institutional DeFi, RWA tokenization, tokenized stocks, cross-border payments, AI and crypto integration, and regulatory frameworks.
The conference follows Binance's pattern of annual regional flagship events anchored to major institutional adoption themes. Binance Blockchain Week last convened in Dubai in November 2024, drawing institutional investors, crypto operators, and regulators. The Bangkok venue places the event in Southeast Asia, where the exchange maintains significant trading volume and regulatory relationships. Thailand has emerged as a regional hub for crypto infrastructure after the Thai Securities and Exchange Commission clarified digital asset custody rules in 2023.
Bitcoin spot ETFs launched in the U.S. in January 2024 and expanded globally through 2025, drawing institutional custody flows to the asset. Stablecoin payment systems have gained central bank interest, particularly in cross-border settlement pilots by the Bank of Thailand and other Asian monetary authorities. RWA tokenization and tokenized equity markets represent newer institutional vectors; Singapore and Hong Kong have licensed digital asset platforms for securities tokenization, and the theme now appears regularly at institutional crypto conferences.
Binance did not announce a speaker list or ticket details. The event name, EVOLVE, was chosen by the organizer.
