LABITCONF 2026 - Latin American Bitcoin & Blockchain Conference

LABITCONF 2026, the Latin American Bitcoin & Blockchain Conference, returns to Buenos Aires for its 14th edition under the theme "Why do you HODL?" Running since 2013, it is widely regarded as the oldest Bitcoin conference in the world and the leading blockchain gathering in Latin America. This year, Bitcoin, blockchain, and artificial intelligence share the same stage, with two days of talks across six stages, an exhibitor area, live shows, and a costume party called HODLWEEN on October 31. The program covers self-custody, finance, startups, and the wider technology shaping the region's digital economy. Headliner Saifedean Ammous, author of The Bitcoin Standard, is joined by Giovanni Santostasi, Giacomo Zucco, and other respected analysts and communicators.

The conference is designed for a broad audience: industry professionals, founders, investors, entrepreneurs, developers, enthusiasts, and newcomers who are just discovering the ecosystem. Ticket options range from the General pass to the Business tier, which adds a dedicated B2B stage, a VIP networking area, and a hardware wallet, and the four-day Experience pass, which includes an executive networking event and a Satoshi Nakamoto monument unveiling on October 29, plus a speakers' networking day on November 1. Attendees should come to hear leading global voices, build meaningful connections across Latin America, and be part of a community that has shaped the regional Bitcoin scene for over a decade. It is also the closing event of Tecweek 2026, a Buenos Aires initiative for innovation and technology.
