Consensus Hong Kong 2026 Returns February 10-12 With Expanded Programming

Hong Kong's crypto scene just got its annual adrenaline shot.

The Main Event Returns

Mark your calendars for February 10-12, 2026—Consensus is back in Hong Kong with more firepower than ever. Expanded programming means deeper dives into DeFi protocols, sharper regulatory insights, and fresh trading strategies that haven't hit the mainstream yet.

Asia's Crypto Hub Flexes

While traditional finance struggles with paperwork and compliance theater, Hong Kong keeps positioning itself as the gateway to Asian digital asset markets. The expanded agenda suggests organizers recognize the region's growing appetite for serious crypto infrastructure.

Timing Is Everything

February 2026 lands right when most institutional players are finalizing annual crypto allocations—convenient how these conferences always seem to align with budget cycles. The expanded programming better deliver more than just the usual 'blockchain will change everything' platitudes this time.

Consensus Hong Kong will return to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre February 10-12, 2026, expanding its footprint following a sold-out debut that attracted nearly 10,000 attendees from over 100 countries and generated an estimated HK$275 million for the local economy.

The 2026 event will occupy the convention center's largest floor, featuring senior executives from China Asset Management, Binance, solana Foundation, OKX, Brevan Howard Digital, Electric Capital, Robinhood, Polymarket, Wintermute, Aptos, Animoca Brands, Mysten Labs, and Invest Hong Kong, among others.

"The overwhelming success of Consensus Hong Kong 2025 was a testament to Hong Kong's status as a leading global FinTech hub and its unique role as a gateway to Asia," Michael Lau, chairman of Consensus, said in a previous statement. "We are excited to return with an even larger platform to host the most influential voices in blockchain, Web3, and AI, and to create unparalleled networking opportunities."

The inaugural 2025 event featured 300+ speakers from the Hong Kong government, global regulatory bodies, and industry leaders including Circle, Coinbase, and Google, with 350+ side events across the city.
