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.

The Czech Republic is a crypto-capital - and it's not just a phrase. A panel with representatives from Braiins, Trezor and Anycoin will show why the Czech Republic has been the source of world-class innovations in Bitcoin, from the first mining pool to hardware wallets to the leading cryptocurrency exchange. What were the beginnings of these companies and how have their products and the entire cryptocurrency landscape changed over the years? What role did the Czech environment, community and specific mentality play? The panel will offer a behind-the-scenes look at successful projects, open a discussion on the challenges of the present and the future, and show why the Czech Republic has a lot to offer in the Bitcoin world.
