Behind the Magic: Why Bitcoin Technology Just Works
You don’t need to be a developer to appreciate what makes Bitcoin’s technology world-changing—you just need to understand why it works so well.
This panel breaks down the innovation, resilience, and beauty of Bitcoin's open-source foundation in clear, accessible language. Featuring core contributors, miners, and educators, the conversation explores:
What makes Bitcoin secure, reliable, and globally accessible
Why open-source development creates trust and long-term stability
How mining, nodes, and consensus work together behind the scenes
Why Bitcoin resists change—and why that’s a feature, not a bug
What makes Bitcoin different from other technologies (and why it’s not “just crypto”)
Whether you're an executive, a builder, or just Bitcoin-curious, this is your opportunity to learn how the tech that powers Bitcoin is still the most innovative system in finance—and why it’s built to last.

Bitcoin is Demonetizing Other Asset Classes
As Bitcoin matures into a globally recognized store of value, it's starting to absorb monetary premiums from traditional asset classes. Real estate, gold, bonds—even equities—are being re-evaluated as capital no longer needs to hide in inefficient or inflation-prone instruments. This session explores how Bitcoin is gradually demonetizing other assets, reshaping portfolio theory, and forcing both institutional and retail investors to rethink capital allocation in a Bitcoin standard world.

Money Backed by Energy
Europe’s energy crisis has exposed the flaws of centralized planning and short-sighted green policies. Bitcoin offers a new path—one where energy and money are aligned. This session explores how mining can incentivize local energy production, support grid balancing, and unlock stranded power. We’ll cover legal precedents, policy threats, and the latest in mining tech like Stratum V2. As the world rethinks energy and sovereignty, Bitcoin is emerging as a bridge between the two.

Driving Bitcoin for Organisations
As we witness structural shifts in trading relationships and capital allocation, the risks are ramping up for those organisations ignoring the rise of Bitcoin. Come and get a sneak preview of the upcoming publication of the Bitcoin for Organisations curriculum; a library of open-source content, developed with Mi Primer Bitcoin and designed to support senior leaders exploring the impact of Bitcoin on their organisation. We will dive into examples and give the audience an opportunity to access some content developed so far. The talk is aimed at senior decision-makers in large or medium-sized organisations, or at Bitcoiners aspiring to be a 'go-to person' within their teams. Those in the professional services consulting space should also find this talk useful.

Different ways to handle Bitcoin Custody
From self-custody to regulated custodians, from collaborative multisig to institutional vaulting—Bitcoin custody is not one-size-fits-all. For companies, funds, service providers, and individuals alike, the question isn’t just how to hold Bitcoin—it’s who should hold it, under what model, and why?
This panel brings together experts covering every layer of the custody stack to break down:
The tradeoffs between control, convenience, and compliance
How institutions are approaching custodianship in 2025
What custody models are emerging for miners, businesses, and high-net-worth individuals
The role of multisig, collaborative custody, and new infrastructure solutions
Why choosing the right custody path is mission-critical for security and trust
If you’re serious about holding—or securing—Bitcoin at scale, this is the panel that covers it all.

Solving self-custody
The features that make Bitcoin valuable are all derived from the fact that users can hold and transfer Bitcoin with self-custody. But it comes with tradeoffs which often lead users to adopt custodial solutions. Bull Bitcoin aims to solve these user experience tradeoffs by developing smart app-layer solutions to reduce the frictions of self-custody.

Arkade - A Virtual Execution Layer for Bitcoin-Native Applications
Bitcoin’s minimalist design brought us unmatched security, but limits programmability. Arkade builds on the Ark protocol, but extends it into a full virtual execution layer that unlocks Bitcoin contracts and scalable financial applications without requiring consensus rule changes to the base layer.
By virtualizing UTXOs into programmable outputs (VTXOs), Arkade enables parallel offchain execution and instant pre-confirmed value transfers with flexible onchain settlement. Bitcoin opcodes get extended with additional primitives for introspection and arithmetic into Arkade Script which lets developers build smart wallets, lending protocols, and native Bitcoin markets, while users maintain unilateral exit control to Bitcoin L1 at any time.
This talk will introduce Arkade’s core architecture and show how virtualization can transform Bitcoin into a platform to unlock Bitcoin as Programmable Money, while preserving its security guarantees.

Practicing Cypherpunk: Privacy, Peer-to-Peer, and Staying Free with Bitcoin
Bitcoin was born from cypherpunk ideals: privacy, decentralization, and peer-to-peer freedom. But as nation-states and institutions start stacking sats, many are asking—is the original vision slipping away?
This panel brings together early builders and privacy advocates to explore what cypherpunk philosophy still means in 2025—and how it can be preserved in a world of KYC, surveillance, and corporate co-option.
Led by OG cypherpunk Juraj Bednár, the conversation features:
Is Bitcoin more a social or technological revolution?
Why P2P, non-KYC Bitcoin still matters
How individuals can take practical steps to protect privacy, sovereignty, and signal in an increasingly centralized world
This isn’t nostalgia—it’s a reminder of why we’re here, how to use the tools, and what’s at stake if we forget.

Cypherpunks vs. Institutions: Who Owns Bitcoin’s Future?
The year 2025 marks a shift in the global Bitcoin sentiment. We may be crossing the chasm—from late adopters to early majority, and more critically, into the hands of institutions, sovereign wealth funds, and nation-states. ETFs, regulatory frameworks, and elite capital are reshaping the narrative.
But is this Bitcoin’s natural evolution—or a threat to its cypherpunk roots?
This debate gives voice to both sides of the aisle. The cypherpunk camp will defend the core values of privacy, censorship resistance, and grassroots scaling. Meanwhile, institutional advocates will argue that integration with the traditional financial system is inevitable—and even necessary for global adoption.
Who’s right? Will Bitcoin stay a tool for sovereign individuals, or become another layer of the legacy system? In 30 years, will we have real no-KYC self-custody—or will Bitcoin be ruled from within TradFi?

Is Bitcoin’s victory inevitable? That depends on how you define “victory.” Bitcoin is at risk of being reshaped in narrow and even harmful ways, and many Bitcoiners are unknowingly celebrating it. If we truly want a better world under a Bitcoin standard, it will take far more than just Number Go Up. In this piece, we’ll explore the risks and what each of us can do to help build the bright orange future.

Why Bitcoin, Not Crypto: Lessons from 2017
In 2017, the crypto boom pulled in millions with promises of fast gains, flashy whitepapers, and endless innovation. ICOs exploded, coins pumped—and then most of them vanished. Along the way, people lost not just money, but precious Bitcoin.
This panel revisits the 2017 cycle with fresh perspective:
What were the traps that even smart people fell into?
Why wasn’t it obvious at the time?
What makes Bitcoin fundamentally different from crypto then—and now?
We’ll explore the patterns that repeat every cycle, why "crypto" continues to distract from Bitcoin’s mission, and how to protect yourself and your community from the same mistakes.
Because history doesn’t repeat—but it does rhyme.

Web Zero - the archaeology of Bitcoin
Bitcoin’s decentralised spirit mirrors humanity’s age-old quest for trust and value exchange, now reborn through blockchain. This technology can in turn help us revolutionise pretty much every aspect of human activity - for example even something as niche as archaeology - with secure funding, artifact authentication, and immutable records. From ancient trade tokens to digital coins, our desire for a borderless, reliable currency has echoed since the dawn of time, and we can now use it to explore the dawn of time more effectively.

In this talk, Roman will explore the long-term effects of fiat money, highlighting how it has contributed to persistent inflation and declining economic growth. He will then contrast this with historical periods of hard money—such as the gold standard and the Bretton Woods system—which he argues fostered stronger growth, low inflation, and greater innovation. Finally, Roman will draw a connection to Bitcoin, presenting it as a modern form of hard money with the potential to restore these economic benefits. The presentation will feature compelling statistics, charts, and visuals to support his thesis.

Long-term security budget debate
Is Bitcoin ruled by miners, users, or node runners—or is it something more emergent and social? As debates around miner centralization and proposed economic changes (like demurrage) gain traction, one question becomes unavoidable: who should hold the power in a decentralized system? This debate explores the delicate balance of incentives, the risks of changing core rules, and whether Bitcoin’s strength lies more in its code… or its community.

The Self-Custody Evolution
Self-custody is not just a feature—it’s the foundation of Bitcoin as Satoshi intended. But for too long, it’s been seen as intimidating or overly technical. That’s changing fast.
This panel explores the new generation of self-custody tools that are easy to use, hard to lose, and designed to bring Bitcoin ownership to everyone—without compromising on privacy or security. You’ll hear from builders and thinkers creating solutions that lower the barrier to entry while preserving Bitcoin’s core principles.
Whether you're managing your own keys or building tools for others to do it safely, this session will equip you with real-world insights, best practices, and the mindset shift needed to move from custody to sovereignty.

The Future of Bitcoin Mining: Power, Incentives, and Decentralization
Bitcoin mining is the engine behind the network—but who controls that engine, and where is it heading?
In this panel, we explore how mining is evolving as the industry scales and matures. What risks come with too much power in the hands of a few large pools? Can smaller miners stay competitive? How do policy pressures, like sanctions or regulation, impact who gets to mine and which transactions get confirmed?
We’ll break down:
Why decentralization in mining still matters
How miners make decisions—and what influences them
Whether new ideas like mining incentives or protocol changes can shift the balance
What individuals and communities can do to keep mining open and censorship-resistant
If you care about Bitcoin’s long-term resilience, this conversation is one you don’t want to miss.

Bitcoin vs. Bureaucracy: Regulation, Control & the CBDC Threat
As Bitcoin rises, so does the pressure to tame it.
From sweeping regulation like Europe’s MiCA to the looming rollout of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), the battle for financial freedom is moving into the legal and institutional arena. But not everyone is playing defense.
In this panel, we bring together insiders and industry leaders navigating the regulatory battlefield.
Together, they’ll discuss how Bitcoin companies can stay sovereign, the real risks of CBDCs, and what it takes to push back against bureaucracy without getting buried by it.
If you care about the future of permissionless money, this is where the next moves are being made.

European Businesses Will Own Most of the Bitcoin
There are 25m SMEs (Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises) in Europe. There are only 21m Bitcoin. If every SME wanted to buy just 1 BTC, it wouldn’t be possible. As inflation rises and confidence in the Euro weakens, more businesses are turning to Bitcoin as a store of value. With an estimated €12 trillion in assets held by SMEs, a massive upward pressure on Bitcoin’s price could lie ahead of us. In this talk, I’ll explore why SMEs are at the core of the next major wave of Bitcoin adoption in Europe.

The Invisible Battle: Who Controls the Narrative of Bitcoin Education?
In this talk, Reyna, Education Director at Mi Primer Bitcoin, explores the real-world challenges of scaling Bitcoin education, sharing personal experiences from El Salvador and insights from her role supporting global collaborations. She highlights growing risks from both external and internal influences quietly attempting to co-opt Bitcoin education and consolidate control, warning that without careful attention, we may find ourselves replicating the same centralization issues that Bitcoin seeks to escape. Reyna will discuss the importance of decentralized, open-source education, confronting diplomatic, political, and financial obstacles impacting Bitcoin adoption. This session will offer insights on how we can preserve the independence and integrity of Bitcoin education while ensuring it remains accessible, decentralized, and free from external influence.

Pierre Noizat - Energy, the flip side of money

Keynote
Energy, the flip side of money
In this talk, Pierre will present the key take aways from his latest book.
1) Energy is everywhere in many different forms: heat, matter, waves. Anything that has a mass, like a particle or an object, is a condensed form of energy while waves and heat are more diffuse forms of energy.
2) Energy self-organize in open systems called dissipative structures such as particles, atoms, molecules, ore, living beings, planets and the universe itself. Typically, a dissipative structure is embedded in a larger one, e.g an animal is a dissipative structure made of cells and part of a species, cells and species are also dissipative structures.
3) Dissipative structures, in turn, self-organize to maximize the flow of energy going through them. This is called the 3rd principle of thermodynamics aka the principle of maximum entropy production.
4) The 3 principles of thermodynamics (the science of energy) explain how nature works, including individual and social behavior in the human species and how a monetary system reduces the entropy of its users.
1) Energy is everywhere in many different forms: heat, matter, waves. Anything that has a mass, like a particle or an object, is a condensed form of energy while waves and heat are more diffuse forms of energy.
2) Energy self-organize in open systems called dissipative structures such as particles, atoms, molecules, ore, living beings, planets and the universe itself.

From BlackRock Coin to Digital Cash
Many see the rise of Bitcoin as a store of value—with institutional giants like BlackRock entering the space—as the death of its cypherpunk dream. I argue the opposite. The path to Bitcoin as a global medium of exchange requires its consolidation as a store of value first. ETFs, corporate adoption, and even sovereign holdings aren’t diversions from the original vision, but necessary steps to make Bitcoin truly viable for everyday transactions.

Bitcoin isn’t just for cypherpunks anymore. Institutions are allocating. Governments are paying attention. The tone has shifted—from skepticism to strategy.
This panel explores the changing sentiment among major players:
Why asset managers, corporates, and sovereign funds are entering the space
If you thought Bitcoin was still an outsider movement, think again. The world is waking up—and you’re just in time.

How to survive on Bitcoin in 2025 as a digital nomad
Traditional banking, especially international banking, is unusable in 2025. It becomes impossible to send a few thousand transactions without the bank knowing the complete source of your income, your identity, the addressee. Blocking international transactions is a very common thing that affects most people.
The European crypto legislation MiCA has introduced complete spying on crypto transactions. Central exchanges have withdrawn anonymous currencies like Monero from the European market.
Realistically, living on crypto is getting easier every year than on fiat. That is why it is high time to break away from it.
In the following presentation, I will explain how to not only survive, but lead a comfortable life on crypto, taking advantage of both local and global crypto services.

From Deflation to Creation: How Bitcoin + AI Ignite the Next Creator-Economy Boom
Bitcoin fixes the money; AI fixes the cost of creation.
As Jeff Booth argues, exponential technology is an unstoppable deflationary force—one that will collapse many wage-for-survival jobs even as it pushes prices toward zero. Rather than fear this shift, we can harness it: Bitcoin’s sound-money rails plus AI’s zero-marginal-cost tools make it profitable for millions to earn directly from their creativity, instead of doing make-work to keep up with inflation. Drawing on a decade of Bitcoin UX leadership and my current AI influencer / creator platform, I’ll lay out a blueprint that the “deflationary creator economy” is already here—and a new career path for billions to thrive in a deflationary world.

Behind the China Firewall: Will Bitcoin help in trade wars?
Despite mining bans and tight capital controls, China remains a silent force in Bitcoin. In this fireside chat with Roger Huang and Jack Lee we dive into what’s really happening behind the scenes. How are individuals, corporations, and shadow investors in China engaging with Bitcoin? Could Bitcoin become a tool for China in the global power game—especially in response to tariffs and Western financial dominance? And how does the Chinese government really view Bitcoin: as a threat, a tool, or a strategic hedge?
For a European audience, this is a rare look at how the world’s rising superpower might be positioning itself in the monetary reset—and what that means for the rest of us.
