With 2026 shaping up to be a pivotal year for Bitcoin adoption, regulation, and infrastructure, here are nine standout Bitcoin-only conferences worth putting on your calendar early. This list balances grassroots culture, technical depth, and institutional scale — plus a few good excuses to travel.

Beyond the Top 9: Worth Watching
Beyond the nine headline events highlighted above, the global Bitcoin conference calendar in 2026 continues to offer a number of high-quality gatherings worth close attention. These events may be more specialized or regionally focused, but they consistently attract deeply engaged audiences and deliver meaningful technical and policy-driven discussions.
One such series is Plan ₿ Forum, which returns to El Salvador on January 30–31, 2026, before heading to Lugano on October 23–24, 2026. Both locations have become symbolic in Bitcoin’s real-world adoption story, and the forum has established itself as a venue where policymakers, entrepreneurs, and builders engage in substantive dialogue around monetary sovereignty, regulation, and national-level Bitcoin integration.
Equally notable is the Bitcoin++ conference series, which continues to set a high bar for technical rigor and global reach. In 2026, the series begins with the Exploits Edition in Florianópolis, Brazil (February 26–28), followed by events in Nevada (April), Vienna (May), Nairobi (June), Toronto (July), and Berlin (October). Known for its developer-first focus and workshop-heavy format, Bitcoin++ consistently attracts engineers and researchers pushing the boundaries of Bitcoin’s protocol, privacy, and scalability.
Together, these events underscore the breadth and maturity of the Bitcoin ecosystem in 2026—proving that meaningful conversations and innovation are happening well beyond the largest stages, across continents and communities worldwide.

Plan early. Travel wisely. And maybe leave a little room in your calendar for spontaneous orange-pilling.
