@ohdatskate Little slice of LATAM for me: Buenazo Peruvian Eatery, Delia (a little fancy but fab), La Lupita there's always a community of chefs and expats from LATAM there
Still thinking about that Sunday in Seoul ๐ฐ๐ท
Our first Tangem House kicked off @kbwofficial week, and the people who showed up are the reason we'll be back in Korea ๐ซฐ
Penguins ๐ค crypto freedom.
Hanging with the Huddle at Into The Igloo and tapping into @Tangem at their booth during Token2049! ๐ง๐ง
Crypto on the go, Pengu by my side.
@pudgypenguins@PenguAsia@clairenatwara
Okay, Seoul. You were not kidding ๐ฐ๐ท
We hosted our first Tangem House in Seoul on Sept 27, and almost 300 of you showed up.
Builders, creators, communities, and students joined us for conversations around self-custody, payments, and the future of crypto.
And of course, some of you even won a Tangem wallet!
Safe to say, it was a pretty damn good way to kick off KBW @kbwofficial.
If you somehow missed us, donโt worry! Weโre here for the whole week. Come say hi ๐
Putting more of the worldโs assets in usersโ hands starts offchain.
First stop of @kbwofficial: @Gem3a in a fireside with leaders from @solana, @ZetaChain, and Hedgers at @Tangem House Seoul, on what RWAs need to achieve mass adoption.
Curiosity turns into ownership when trust, understanding and reliable rails come together.
Build those right, and more of the world's assets end up where they're meant to be, onchain.
Fulfilling the promise of the open financial network.
Meet Tangem Squad in Seoul during KBW 2026!
Join us at the events below, and donโt miss Tangem House, where the @pudgypenguins team will be joining us!

What a way to kick off KBW 2026. ( อกยฐ อส อกยฐ) ๐ฐ๐ท
Yesterday, we hosted @Tangem House Seoul, and there was one message I really wanted to leave with everyone:
Self custody should not feel complicated. It should feel natural enough to become part of everyday life.
Tangem started with a simple mission around secure self custody, but today, the vision goes much further than simply holding assets.
Simply hold. Simply grow. Simply spend.
The idea is to build one secure place where users can manage their financial lives with crypto from ownership and swaps to earning, payments, and real world usage.
And we are already thinking beyond traditional financial tools too, like Collect. Build & Automate.
New collectible experiences, and eventually AI powered agents and mini apps through Tangem MCP all inside the same walletexperience.
That was also why I didnโt want Tangem House to feel like just another hardware wallet showcase.
I wanted it to be a place where different ecosystems, builders, creators, communities, and users could sit together and talk.
A huge thank you to our speakers today:
- Andrew Lim(@KoreaPanda_), @ZetaChain APAC Lead
- Chaerin Kim (@decentra1ized_), @SolanaFndn APAC Tech
- Gemma Shin (@Gem3a), @Mantle_Official Ecosystem Growth
- - Hope (@Hope_web3_), Creator / Hedgers cofounder
Thank you for bringing different perspectives, honest conversations, and great energy to the room.
And none of this would have happened without the @Tangem team behind the scenes. Huge thank you to everyone who supported the event, and especially to @clairenatwara , @Aki, and @alittlebitriya , who were there with me on the ground in Seoul and helped make everything happen from start to finish. ๐
Over five hours, we welcomed around 290 attendees out of roughly 420 approved registrations, about a 69% turnout rate. >-<
Seeing the room stay full, conversations continue long after the sessions, people actually trying the Wallet and Ring, meeting each other, and sharing their own thoughts.
Iโve already seen people calling Tangem House will be one of their favorite events of this yearโs KBW. That means a lot.
Thank you to everyone who came, spoke, listened, shared, posted, and made Tangem House what it was.
Thanks again and enjoy KBW! ( อกยฐ อส อกยฐ)
Taking a break from talking about crypto to do something much more important,
Arcade games and claw machines.
Come hang with us at the Pengu Playground on September 28 for food, drinks, and exclusive merch!
Well, see you there? ๐

Coinfest Asia 2026 was packed. The Tangem booth was one of the busiest spots, and honestly @Tangem team didn't drop an ounce of energy the whole two days ๐
I was there helping out on the ground. Explaining the Tangem Card and Tangem Ring to local visitors, jumping into questions, small chats, the kind of conversations that only happen face to face.
The video took longer to edit than I expected. But it captures what it felt like to be part of that booth, the energy, the crowd, the team that kept showing up for every single person who stopped by.
The Tangem Card + Ring combo was the main character the whole time btw ๐
see you at the next @CoinfestAsia ๐ค
