ETH Conf NYC was epic!🗽
Massive thanks to the team at @ethconf, and especially @AdamDeanWozney for the karaoke skills.

.@ethconf last week was incredible.

A few days in NYC hearing from the builders, leaders, and institutions moving into the Ethereum ecosystem for real. Hard to overstate the energy.

Now back at my desk, recharged and ready to ship exciting stuff soon 👀

(hat by @infinex from a few years ago, thanks @kaiynne)

[Alexis Johnson @PulchraMens]

Clear takeaway from @ethconf NY: institutional adoption is only ramping up, not slowing down.

Great conversations, strong momentum, and a lot to be excited about heading into the next cycle.

Looking forward to next years event.

[Ethereum @ethereum]

Ethereum is for shipping.

[Aurum @aurum_ecosystem]

🏛 Neyro was proud to serve as a co-host of the exclusive @Cointelegraph Private Salon during @ETHConf NYC.

The event brought together leaders from Web3, digital assets, venture capital, institutional finance, and emerging technologies to discuss the future of finance, AI, and blockchain innovation.

@ethconf NYC 2026: Notes from the room

🟢 First year for ETHConf: Smaller crowd, no tourists, meaning better conversations.

🟢 The most institutional ETH conference we've seen. Not just the logos (BlackRock, DTCC, Moody's) but the room itself: people sent by their banks and asset managers to learn

🟢 The agenda was stablecoin payments, onchain credit, tokenized securities, institutional collateral, agent wallets, regulatory clarity.

🟢 Three forces are pulling at the same stack right now: Capital markets, payments, AI agents. All three need trust, settlement, identity, programmability. Ethereum has the institutional relationships and regulatory surface area to serve all three at once.

🟢 Security is finally part of the build conversation. Not a post-launch checkbox. Recent hacks are doing what years of awareness campaigns couldn't.

🟢 Knicks lost 1 game but the city still went bananas

The market is down but the signal is high.

Ship Safely.🚀

[Blockchain Game Alliance @BGameAlliance]

At ETHConf 2026, most activations relied on technical demos and presentations. @ValleyEcosystem dropped a physical cabinet on the floor with a leaderboard, and attendees kept coming back.

The reality about Web3 onboarding:

Friction kills adoption. If your first step is forcing a player to download a wallet and learn crypto terminology, you've already lost them.

Valley Arcade proved that competition and tangible rewards drive engagement far more effectively than technical explanations.

People don't want to be "onboarded" into blockchain. They want to have fun. If the gameplay loop is compelling, the onboarding happens seamlessly in the background.

What was the most important takeaways from @ethconf ?

[gök🦉 @0xgks]

Last week, I had the opportunity to be part of the organization team at @ethconf and work alongside an amazing team that helped bring together builders, founders, researchers, and community members from across the Ethereum ecosystem.

While attendees experienced the talks, networking, and side events, there was also a dedicated team working behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly. Being part of that effort gave me a new appreciation for what it takes to organize events at this scale.

Thank you to everyone who made ETHConf possible and to all the attendees who brought their energy to New York City.

[Gopika Chauhan @okgopika]

One of the important things I realised during the conference was how vital it is to be part of the global community. That’s how you’re supposed to get connected with people. I’m a member of @dev3pack, and it definitely gave me an edge. Thanks to @_SDAV, she introduced me to so many people, guided me, and I kinda felt she was proud of me. I feel I gained a lot at @ethconf, and I mostly owe it to her.

Glad to be a Dev3pack fellow ♥︎

[afox 🦊 @afoxinweb3]

Last week we participated in @ethconf's Startup Pitching competition with @yieldseekerxyz 🌱

It was a great event and really fun and insightful to be part of! 🙌

Shout out to the @ETHGlobal team for organising a great conference and great event, and to all the other great founders we met.

[Fluid 🌊 @0xfluid]

NYC recap🗽

@smykjain took the @ethconf stage to highlight:
→ Our 8 years building. From @Instadapp to Fluid
→ Institutions and protocols are choosing Fluid infra to launch their own onchain products like lending markets, DEXes, liquidity for stablecoins and RWA.

Fluid Powered 🌊

[TestMachine @testmachine_ai]

The biggest innovation happening right now is at the intersection of AI and crypto.

Some highlights from @ETHConf NYC 🧵

[ENVIO @envio_indexer]

Thank you to @ETHGlobal and the @ethconf teams for having us as sponsors at EthConf in New York.

It was a pleasure to meet all the teams building with Envio and to connect with other builders in the space.

Thanks again to everyone who stopped by to say hello.

[World Chain @world_chain_]

We're inspired by the builders we met at @ethconf and @ETHGlobal last week. The projects coming out of this community continue to raise the bar. Thanks for the conversations about proof of human, and for showing us what you’re building.

[ETHConf @ethconf]

"Token prices and launching itself is really just the rail where finance and value moves from A to B. The AI part is the intelligence layer."

– @maxime_sts_ of @stsdigital_io with @perkinscr97 of 250 Digital Asset Management on the Main Stage at ETHConf.

[XDC USA @XDC_USA]

@ethconf NYC brought together an incredible mix of builders, institutions, allocators, and infrastructure teams.

We were pleased to host a series of events and welcome partners from across the digital asset ecosystem.

From thoughtful discussions during the day to continued conversations in the evening, the week highlighted the growing momentum across payments, tokenization, and real-world assets.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to the XDC team whose hard work made the week possible. 🤝

[ETHConf @ethconf]

Can't believe ETHConf was just one week ago...

From the future of global financial infrastructure to digital asset policy, the conversations that started in New York are still unfolding.

See you in 2027. 🗽
