Bitcoin Amsterdam will return to Sugar Factory on Nov. 5-6, 2026, with a closed-door BFC Symposium scheduled for Nov. 4 ahead of the public program. Organizers said the event will bring together banks and funds that hold bitcoin on their balance sheets, policymakers involved in shaping related rules, and developers and community representatives working on bitcoin adoption worldwide. The conference is entering its fifth year, according to the announcement, and is framed as a meeting point for three groups that do not often share the same stage: institutional participants, regulators and grassroots bitcoin communities. The confirmed speaker list already spans open-source development and financial services, including Bitcoin Core developer Sjors Provoost, Lightning researcher René Pickhardt, Strike CEO Jack Mallers, Nakamoto Inc. CEO and Chairman David Bailey, Coinbase UK CEO and regional managing director for the EU and UK Keith Grose, and representatives from Rabobank, Maerki Baumann and Van Lanschot Kempen. BTC Inc. CEO Brandon Green said bitcoin adoption depends on institutions willing to hold BTC, regulators willing to understand it, and communities that have spent more than a decade building the ecosystem. The company also said tickets, media accreditation and agenda updates are available through bitcoin.amsterdam.
