Bitcoin Asia 2026 is scheduled for Aug. 27-28 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, with Metaplanet as host and BTC Inc. as organizer. According to the announcement, the event expects more than 10,000 attendees from over 125 countries and will run a dedicated business track alongside the main summit. That track includes Deal Day, an institutional area on the show floor, and the Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium. Deal Day is described as an invite-only program focused on pre-arranged 30-minute one-on-one meetings between Bitcoin companies, banks, funds and research analysts. BTC Inc. said the format builds on a previous Deal Day held during Bitcoin 2026 in Las Vegas, where 23 exhibiting companies and 23 investment partners took part in more than 200 structured meetings. The announcement also positions Hong Kong as a suitable venue because of its virtual asset licensing framework, approval of Bitcoin ETFs, and stated openness to institutional digital asset business. A GA+ business pass priced at $197 will provide access to the networking zone, in-app meeting booking, selected networking opportunities and priority main-stage seating, while access to the Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium requires a business or Whale pass plus an invitation. Deal Day requires a separate application and credentialing process.

Bitcoin Asia 2026 will take place on Aug. 27-28 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, with Metaplanet serving as host and BTC Inc. organizing the event. The summit is expected to draw more than 10,000 attendees from over 125 countries. Alongside the two-day main program, the organizers are adding a business-focused track built around Deal Day, an institutional experience area, and the Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium.

The details were released in a press announcement provided by BTC Media. In that description, Bitcoin Asia 2026 is framed as a gathering for long-term holders, open-source developers, newcomers, miners, policy watchers and builders. For companies and investors arriving in Hong Kong with specific commercial goals, the event will also offer a dedicated B2B environment inside the same venue.

Hong Kong venue and event scale

The conference will be held at HKCEC. The announcement says Hong Kong has become one of the more active digital asset regulatory sandboxes globally, citing its virtual asset service provider licensing framework, approval of Bitcoin ETFs, and continued openness to institutional digital asset activity. For companies seeking access to Asia-Pacific capital and counterparties, the city is presented as a gateway into the region’s financial network.

Organizers said the event is expected to bring in more than 10,000 participants from over 125 countries. Metaplanet, described in the announcement as a Tokyo-listed Bitcoin treasury company, is the host. BTC Inc. is listed as the organizer, and the company is also identified as a subsidiary of Nakamoto Inc., whose Nasdaq ticker is NAKA.

Deal Day: structured capital matching by invitation

Deal Day is scheduled for Aug. 27 at HKCEC and is described as an invite-only event designed to connect Bitcoin businesses with banks, funds and research analysts in a transaction-focused setting. The organizers say this is not an open networking session or a standard expo floor format. Each participant is vetted, and every meeting is arranged in advance.

Participating companies will meet guests in a dedicated meeting area at the venue, with back-to-back 30-minute one-on-one meetings planned throughout the day. Before the event starts, BTC Inc. says it will build customized schedules based on each company’s goals. The program also includes a catered lunch, topic-focused discussions, and a closing Deal Summit reception.

According to the announcement, the format is designed for people handling finance, investor relations, strategy and fundraising, with the emphasis on getting deals done rather than simply attending stage sessions.

BTC Inc. also pointed to data from Deal Day at Bitcoin 2026 in Las Vegas. There, 23 exhibiting companies and 23 investment partners took part, producing more than 200 structured meetings. Companies named in the release included Kraken, Metaplanet, BitGo, Strive, Bitdeer, Nakamoto, Fold, iTrust Capital and Unchained. Capital allocators and financial institutions listed included Barclays, TD Securities, Société Générale, Scotiabank, Cantor Fitzgerald, Bitwise, Cohen & Company Capital Markets, B. Riley, UTXO Management and Sora Ventures. The company said Deal Day Asia 2026 will bring the same structure to Hong Kong.

Participation is limited to invited attendees. Companies and investors can register interest with BTC Inc. and then submit attendance details and meeting goals to build a tailored schedule. Confirmed participants may also access upgrade options including private meeting rooms, Whale passes for Bitcoin Asia, and Deal Day branding placements.

Institutional programming on the same floor

The institutional area at Bitcoin Asia 2026 will sit inside the same open hall at HKCEC, with the Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium stage at one end and Deal Day at the other. The stated goal is to place three core groups from the corporate Bitcoin ecosystem in one physical space.

  • Corporate treasury participants, including public-company chief executives, chief financial officers and board members managing or evaluating Bitcoin balance-sheet exposure;
  • Capital allocators, including fund managers, family office principals and institutional investors;
  • Infrastructure partners, including custodians, over-the-counter trading desks, and legal, accounting and treasury advisory firms.

At the center of the floor plan will be a business matching zone for one-on-one meetings, with in-app table booking available. Organizers say the setup is intended to give attendees a structured way to reach companies, counterparties and capital on site. For banks, funds and research analysts, the area is also described as a direct access point to vetted companies in a setting built for efficient meetings.

Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium returns to Hong Kong

The Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium will return to Hong Kong on Aug. 27 and run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at HKCEC. The session is aimed at participants deploying capital, building companies and shaping how Bitcoin is used in the global economy.

The program will focus on how companies are putting Bitcoin into practice. The release says the symposium will bring together companies that have added Bitcoin to their balance sheets, along with institutions building the infrastructure and financial products that support the ecosystem. Discussion topics will include governance, capital formation, yield strategies, and operational decisions facing companies as Bitcoin takes on a larger role in global business.

BTC Inc. said the symposium has already completed stops in Las Vegas and New York, with Amsterdam set as the next stop in November 2026 after Hong Kong. In New York, Metaplanet’s keynote was the most-watched session of the symposium, according to the announcement.

Access to the Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium is included in Bitcoin Asia 2026 business passes and Whale passes.

What BTC Inc. said about Hong Kong

BTC Inc. CEO Brandon Green said, 「Hong Kong sits at the center of the conversation between Eastern capital markets and the global Bitcoin ecosystem. The networking opportunities at Bitcoin Asia, combined with Deal Day and the Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium, create the infrastructure for companies and investors to turn conversations into outcomes.」

Business pass pricing and entry rules

Attendees who want access to the business track can join through a $197 GA+ business pass. According to the release, that pass includes entry to the business matching zone, in-app meeting booking, selected networking opportunities and priority seating at the main stage.

Business pass holders will also have access to a networking lounge and a dedicated check-in lane. Entry to the Bitcoin for Corporations Symposium requires a business pass or a Whale pass, plus an invitation. Deal Day requires a separate application process and credential approval.

The announcement directs readers to asia.b.tc/networking and asia.b.tc/institutional for full pass options and Deal Day applications.

About BTC Inc. and its parent company

The release describes BTC Inc. as a Bitcoin media company whose businesses include Bitcoin Magazine, Bitcoin Conference and Bitcoin for Corporations. Through its media, events and education platforms, the company says it provides news, research and experiences for individuals, institutions and corporations.

BTC Inc. is identified as a subsidiary of Nakamoto Inc. The parent company is described as a public Bitcoin company that owns and operates a global portfolio of Bitcoin-native businesses.

Forward-looking statement section

The release ends with a forward-looking statement notice. BTC Inc. says certain statements in the announcement fall under the definition of forward-looking statements in U.S. federal securities law. It says those statements may be identified by terms such as estimate, forecast, expect, believe, potential, will, seek, and target, while adding that the absence of those words does not mean a statement is not forward-looking.

The notice says those statements include, but are not limited to, business plans and strategy at BTC Inc.; plans for new products, services and media platforms; projections or targets for audience size, reach, impressions and distribution; expected launch dates and production timelines; advocacy positions and expected outcomes from engagement with industry and regulators; and the anticipated role and growth of Bitcoin-related media, events and educational services.

BTC Inc. also says those statements involve uncertainty, assumptions and risk. The release lists possible factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, including Bitcoin price volatility and its effect on audience interest, advertiser demand and the business viability of Bitcoin-focused media; changes in audience size, engagement and distribution channels; risks that new products or services, including new media platforms, are not launched on time, fail to reach expected audience levels or do not generate expected revenue; risks that advocacy or industry engagement does not achieve intended results; reliance on third-party distribution platforms whose policies, algorithms or terms may change, along with competition from other media companies and content providers; changes in the digital asset regulatory environment and their potential effect on BTC Inc.’s operations, content and audience; dependence on key personnel and creative talent; the risk that projected audience metrics, impressions or distribution data are not achieved or maintained; integration risks tied to BTC Inc.’s addition to Nakamoto Inc.’s operating structure after the acquisition closed in February 2026; macroeconomic conditions affecting advertising and event revenue; and additional factors detailed in Nakamoto Inc.’s filings or future filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, available through Nakamoto’s website and the SEC website.

The notice adds that because Nakamoto Inc. is BTC Inc.’s parent company, investors in Nakamoto common stock should understand that the performance and risks of BTC Inc.’s media, events and education businesses may affect Nakamoto Inc. and its subsidiaries in areas including consolidated financial results, reputation and regulatory standing. BTC Inc. and Nakamoto Inc. say they undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement except where required by law.
