«Incrypted Conference sets the bar higher and higher every year. In 2025, we not only gathered a record number of offline participants but also attracted thousands of viewers online. This shows that the Ukrainian crypto community is more vibrant and ambitious than ever», commented Incrypted CEO Ivan Pavlovsky.

He also noted that Incrypted will continue to work on its goal to promote and develop Ukrainian Web3 community.

The media team is also the organizer of Ukrainian Blockchain Week, which included a whole week of various Web3-community-oriented events. Incrypted noted that they try to attract top crypto projects to Ukraine so that the local community WOULD not only be aware of all global trends, but also actively participate in their formation.

«We have every reason to do so: Ukrainian developers, funders and teams already play key roles in top global projects. Almost every blockchain company at C-level has someone from Ukraine. We have incredible potential. And our goal is not only to maintain this bar, but to make Ukraine one of the epicentres of the Web3 ecosystem», Pavlovskyy added.
