Crypto 2026: From Cryptocurrency to Smart Economy

With the rapid development of AI technology, the "participants" in the digital world are expanding from single human users to intelligent agents (AI Agents) capable of autonomous decision-making and execution. The account systems, settlement capabilities, and incentive mechanisms provided by the crypto network are also beginning to shift from serving transactions for "humans" to serving economic activities for "agents."

This event, themed "From Cryptocurrency to Intelligent Economy," brings together industry leaders, innovative projects, top VCs, and ecosystem builders to explore the technological paths and industrial opportunities behind this paradigm shift. At the intersection of technological leaps and economic restructuring, this dialogue not only provides insights into the current state of the industry but also offers a forward-looking reflection on the future intelligent economic system.

• Keynote Speeches & Panels: Founders, investors, and researchers from fields such as AI innovation, agent economy, payments, RWA, and financial institutions will share cutting-edge insights.

• Networking Opportunities: Immerse yourself in a top-notch social atmosphere to connect with influential investors, key decision-makers, industry leaders, and KOLs to expand collaboration opportunities.
