The cryptocurrency world moves at a breakneck pace, with hardly a day passing without a major event—conferences, seminars, coin burns, airdrops, and more. For active traders and long-term investors alike, staying on top of these events is crucial for both investment strategy and travel planning. We’ve rounded up six of the best event tracking platforms to ensure you never miss a beat.
Coinmarketcal: Community-Powered Accuracy
Coinmarketcal launched about a year ago and quickly became the most recognizable name in crypto event calendars. It relies on community submissions, but has gradually refined its listing criteria to maintain reasonably accurate data. Users can filter by coin, category, exchange, and date. It also offers Twitter and Telegram bots plus an email newsletter, making it a comprehensive solution for event discovery.
Coinmarketcap: The Price Giant Enters the Calendar Game
Perhaps in retaliation for Coinmarketcal borrowing its name, Coinmarketcap recently introduced its own events page. While still rudimentary compared to dedicated calendar sites, it’s perfect for tracking upcoming blockchain conferences. The downside is a lack of curation—event descriptions are provided directly by organizers, so every conference is hyped as the “event of the year.”
Kryptocal: ICO Listings Meet Calendar Features
Kryptocal combines ICO listings with general event tracking, allowing sorting by categories such as airdrops, bounty programs, conferences, forks, and meetups. For example, it has a dedicated page for Bitcoin Cash events. While its total event count can’t match Coinmarketcal, the site is well-designed and a pleasure to browse.
Cryptocalendar: Simple Snapshot of Global Events
Cryptocalendar may not win any design awards, but it excels at providing a quick overview of the number and scope of events happening worldwide on any given day. Its search feature is effective, leading you to a dedicated page for your preferred cryptocurrency.
Coinscalendar: Granularity That Stands Out
Among a sea of similarly named sites, Coinscalendar distinguishes itself through extreme granularity. With a large number of coins and finely divided categories, you can search for specific event types—even “whitepaper-related events.” If you need that level of detail, this is your go-to platform.
Crypto Dates: Calendar Subscription with Crypto Holidays
Crypto Dates is a user-generated calendar that overlays annual cryptocurrency dates (e.g., Segwit Activation Day, Free Ross Day, Bitcoin Whitepaper Anniversary) onto your Google Calendar. It also supports iCal subscription, making it easy to integrate into your existing schedule.
Finally, don’t forget to check Bitcoin.com’s events page, which lists upcoming conferences and global Bitcoin Cash meetups where you can connect with like-minded enthusiasts.
