CB+DC CONFERENCE 2026

The Changing Dynamics of Digital Finance

The landscape of digital currencies and payment systems is undergoing a profound transformation. With the rise of blockchain technology, and with the subsequent advent of CBDCs, stablecoins, and tokenized assets, traditional financial models and payment solutions are facing unprecedented challenges. This evolving ecosystem promises faster transactions, reduced fees, and increased accessibility. But it also raises questions about security, regulation, and privacy.

Businesses and consumers alike are adapting to this changing landscape that opens up new possibilities for innovative solutions.

The ongoing transformation of digital currencies and payment systems is influencing global patterns of saving, spending, and value exchange, shaping the future direction of finance.

The rationale behind the CB+DC Conference

It’s a unique space for learning, collaboration, and forward-thinking dialogue about how digital currencies and new payment infrastructures will revolutionize the way money transfers are executed.
