Incrypted Conference 2025 — Kyiv Hosts Ukraine’s Premier Crypto Extravaganza
Blockchain's brightest minds descended on Kyiv as Incrypted Conference 2025 cemented its status as Ukraine's definitive crypto event.
The who's who of Web3 turned out for what analysts are calling "the Davos of Eastern European crypto"—though with better vodka and fewer banker platitudes.
Panels crackled with insights on DeFi's next act, while the exhibit floor buzzed with startups pitching everything from quantum-resistant ledgers to NFT-based war memorials. Local regulators even showed up—presumably to learn what they'll be banning next year.
As the afterparties spilled into Podil's crypto bars, one thing became clear: while Wall Street still debates blockchain's utility, Ukraine's builders are too busy shipping code to care.
Among the notable guests were Bitcoin developer Peter Todd, whom HBO has referred to as a potential Satoshi Nakamoto, and several Ukrainian officials actively involved in shaping crypto regulations: Danylo Hetmantsev, Yaroslav Zhelezniak, and Ruslan Magomedov. Other prominent speakers included Anton Dziuba (CEO of DOUBLETOP), Kostiantyn Kudo (Cryptology Key), Cryptomannn, and various experts in crypto markets, Web3, trading, and cybersecurity.
The conference covered pressing topics for the crypto community: regulation of digital assets in Ukraine, the evolution of Web3, trading strategies, anti-manipulation measures, and the current state of the market. Attendees were not only able to listen to speaker presentations but also engage with them offstage.
Incrypted also organized an online livestream of the conference, which has already been viewed by over 8,000 people. Ahead of the offline event, as part of Ukrainian Blockchain Week, the team also held an online marathon, which received over 34,000 views on YouTube and X (Twitter). The broadcast featured top industry players, including Richard Teng (CEO of Binance), Illia Polosukhin (co-founder of NEAR Protocol), Armani Ferrante (founder of Backpack), Jason Lau from OKX, and many others.
The conference was supported by over 30 partners, many of whom had booths where visitors could test services, win prizes, and talk directly with project teams.
Over 40 media outlets, including international ones, partnered with Incrypted Conference 2025 — a testament to the growing global interest in Ukraine’s crypto market.
“Every year, Incrypted Conference raises the bar. In 2025, we not only gathered a record number of offline participants but also attracted thousands of online viewers. This shows that the Ukrainian crypto community is more alive and ambitious than ever”, said Ivan Pavlovskyy, CEO of Incrypted.
He also emphasized that Incrypted will continue working toward its mission — to promote and grow Ukraine’s Web3 community.
The media team also organized Ukrainian Blockchain Week, which featured a series of Web3-focused events throughout the week. Incrypted aims to bring top crypto projects to Ukraine so that the local community not only stays informed about global trends but plays an active role in shaping them.
“We have every reason to succeed: Ukrainian developers, founders, and teams already play key roles in leading global projects. Almost every blockchain company has a Ukrainian in a C-level position. Our potential is incredible. And our goal is not just to maintain this level but to make Ukraine one of the epicenters of the global Web3 ecosystem,” added Pavlovskyy.
