NYC Goes Full Crypto: Mayor Adams Bets Big on Blockchain Boom
New York City isn’t just dipping its toes—it’s diving headfirst into the crypto pool. Mayor Eric Adams doubles down on blockchain, positioning the Big Apple as the next Web3 capital. Wall Street bankers clutching their pearls? Priceless.
From Bitcoin pizza to institutional adoption—the city that never sleeps won’t stop mining opportunities. But let’s see if the ’innovation-friendly’ policies survive the next market crash.

The upcoming summit on May 20 is expected to bring together entrepreneurs, policy leaders, and developers, aiming to shape a strategic roadmap for New York’s emerging crypto sector. Adams described it as an opportunity to cultivate collaboration and turn the city into a launchpad for the next wave of fintech innovation.
Renewing his call for blockchain businesses to make New York their home, Adams said, “This city is open to bold ideas. If you’re building in Web3, we want you here.”
