From February 10 to 12, 2026, one of the world's most influential conferences on cryptocurrency and new technologies, Consensus, will once again take place at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. This follows its debut, which saw a full house, and Consensus has officially confirmed Hong Kong as one of its important nodes connecting Asia.

Since its inception in 2015 by CoinDesk, Consensus has always been built on an independent and professional news system, continuously gathering key participants from the fields of digital finance, blockchain, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies. As Asia's importance in the adoption of crypto assets, Web3 infrastructure development, and new financial experiments continues to rise, Consensus Hong Kong has gradually become an important bridge connecting Eastern and Western markets, capital, and technology ecosystems.

Around the opening of the main venue for Consensus 2026, a large number of side events focusing on developers, institutional finance, RWA, stablecoins, AI × Web3, investment, and ecosystem collaboration will be held intensively. As a local media outlet that has long focused on the evolution of Web3 and new financial structures, Techub News is also deeply involved and will continue to track important activities during this Consensus cycle. Below is an overview of the key side events and supporting activities during Consensus Hong Kong.
