Missed the offline events? The annual Bitcoin conference organized by Bitcoin Magazine will be held between the 18th and the 20th of May in Miami this year, with speakers such as MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor and best-selling financial author Michael Lewis.

The once niche gathering has grown into a sizable conference with over 150 speakers and 15,000 attendees, representing 2000 companies. Despite the name, the Bitcoin conference does not at all centers around BTC only, but also covers the whole crypto industry and its processes.

Participants will have a chance to hear the latest news and developments about crypto and get to know the vision of the people who are leading the crypto revolution. And of course, the event and its after party is also the perfect opportunity to do some networking and expand ones’ business.

The BTC conference offers a huge schedule for 3 days. Here are some important points concerning the event:

The show will begin on Thursday morning, May 18 and end on Saturday, May 20.
The venue will have 4 stages focusing on different aspects of the industry, namely, the Enterprise Stage, the Mining Stage, the Nakamoto Main Stage and the Open-Source Stage.
Participants will also be able to relax and socialize in 3 different lounge areas.
After a short welcome, the sessions on Thursday morning will focus on the state of Bitcoin adoption, crypto regulation and the current and future technological state of cryptocurrency mining. The afternoon of the first day will be more about crypto investments, DeFi and tax regulations.
Friday will be less technical and will be more about expanding the economic principles and the philosophy behind Bitcoin and crypto as well as some presentations about the everyday use applications of crypto technology. Notable topics are “Bitcoin Payments in a Borderless World”, “Energy Literacy” and “Bitcoin vs The IMF”, by Alex Gladstein from the Human Rights Foundation. Moreover they will have Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as a speaker, too.

Saturday will be a mix of topics related to crypto technologies and other actualities, such as AI and mining. Conference attendees will be able to join a few different workshops either.
The same day at 8 pm there will be an after party with music by Morgan Page and a couple of other DJs. Dancing, chilling and networking — everything that’s needed after a serious business conference.

The detailed program is available on the website of the event.

Who the conference is for

With tickets starting at $899 and high-end tickets costing as much as $9,999, it is clear that having light interest in crypto is not the only reason for people to attend the conference.

However, since many of the presentations will also be available online, anyone interested can watch them via the Internet.

Of course, if the price is no issue, physical attendance is better, since it allows for more insight on the topics and access to behind the scenes information during informal talks in the lounge areas. The lounge areas also provide a perfect opportunity to do some business networking.

Many of the 15,000 attendees will be experts, wealthy individuals and investors, so the Bitcoin Conference 2023 will be the perfect opportunity for any crypto startup to gather potential investors or expand business connections. For investors, the other side of the same scenario applies. Developers might find this event the most concentrated crypto know-how of the year.

For those who would like to relax after the business event — the tickets for the official after party start at $60. VIP tables are also available for booking at additional fees. If the conference is not affordable, the after party can also provide a great opportunity for networking.

Conclusion

Crypto enthusiasts or investors might benefit from following the Bitcoin Conference 2023. But if there’s no opportunity to do so, there’s a chance to join online.

You can follow the news and also tune-in live for some of the presentations online for free or for a fraction of the $899 base level ticket price. Attending the event, however, could provide very good opportunities for meeting other crypto enthusiasts, investors and even major players in the industry.

All in all, the annual Bitcoin conference holds various opportunities for attendees, investors and speakers. It’s a great chance to join the community of crypto followers, find ones who are going to love the idea of one’s project concept, and just learn something new about the crypto sector. It is always a good thing to participate in such events as it allows to see the ongoing progress with own eyes.
