Binance Blockchain Week 2026 Reveals Global Speakers for Bangkok
Binance has announced the first speaker lineup for Binance Blockchain Week Bangkok 2026, scheduled for November 28-29 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center. The event, themed "Evolve," will feature global policymakers, industry leaders, and executives from major financial institutions discussing the convergence of traditional finance and digital assets, regulatory frameworks, and tokenization trends.
Binance, the global blockchain finance platform, has unveiled the initial roster of speakers for Binance Blockchain Week Bangkok 2026 – Asia Edition, organized in partnership with Binance TH. The two-day event takes place November 28-29 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, serving as a strategic hub for the accelerating convergence of traditional capital markets and digital assets across the region.
This year's theme, "Evolve," reflects a pivotal moment in digital finance as traditional markets and digital assets increasingly share the same infrastructure. Artificial intelligence is reshaping data access and capital allocation, while governments, financial institutions, and developers worldwide collaborate to build transparent, trustworthy frameworks for sustainable industry growth. Payment systems, tokenized stocks, real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, and digital assets are merging into a unified ecosystem, breaking down barriers and expanding global access.
Attendees will hear from leading regional policymakers including Gizzat Baitursynov, Deputy Minister of AI and Digital Development of Kazakhstan, and Shaun Tan, Head of Crypto and Fintech Growth at Bhutan's Gelephu Mindfulness City. Their participation underscores a critical shift: regulators and technology developers are working more closely than ever to define clear rules and guidelines.
Binance Co-CEO Richard Teng noted that regulatory innovation is no longer confined to traditional financial centers, with emerging jurisdictions playing growing roles in shaping digital finance's future. He emphasized that the regulatory frameworks and financial infrastructure being built today will determine capital flows, corporate growth destinations, and market leadership tomorrow.
The speaker lineup brings together recognized leaders in finance, technology, and digital assets: Arthur Hayes, CIO of Maelstrom and creator of the perpetual swap; Sushant Singh, Tether's Asia-Pacific Business Development lead; Matthew Roszak, Chairman of Bloq; and Changpeng Zhao (CZ), founder of Giggle Academy and Binance co-founder. As traditional finance and digital assets rapidly converge, the program dives deep into actual on-chain capital flows, featuring executives from major institutions, payment networks, and global tech firms, including Dan Maley, Head of Digital Assets for Asia-Pacific at BlackRock.
