This year’s edition of the network’s annual flagship conference is right around the corner. Solana Breakpoint 2026 will bring all the manlets to London from November 15-17, marking the first time the event takes place in the UK.
More than 8,000 attendees from over 100 countries are expected to gather at Olympia Convention Centre, London, bringing together founders, developers, investors, financial institutions, policymakers, and creators shaping the future of blockchain infrastructure.
This year’s theme, “Token Supercycle,” focuses on the growing shift of financial assets, payments, and economic activity onto blockchain networks. The event arrives as Solana expands beyond crypto-native applications into stablecoins, tokenized assets, payments, artificial intelligence, and consumer platforms.
The Token Supercycle Vision
Breakpoint 2026 will focus on how programmable assets and real-time settlement could reshape global markets.
Solana currently processes more than 50% of all blockchain transactions, with the network recording a monthly all-time high of 4.2 billion non-vote transactions in July.
Solana has also become a major network for stablecoin activity, recording more than $4.7 trillion in stablecoin volume in 2026. The network also supports more than $4 billion in real-world asset value, with $486 million of that coming from tokenized equities. It is undoubtedly the most dominant network for trading stocks onchain, as Solana has recorded more tokenized equity spot trading volume than all other blockchains combined for 60 consecutive weeks.
The conference will explore how these trends could accelerate as institutions, enterprises, and developers build financial products directly onchain.
Day 1, themed “The Supercycle, Today,” will examine the assets already moving onto blockchain rails, including stablecoins, payments, and tokenized real-world assets.
Day 2, themed “The Supercycle, Tomorrow,” will focus on emerging areas such as AI agents, prediction markets, consumer applications, new ownership models, and markets enabled by programmable capital.
Institutions Join the Conversation
The first wave of Breakpoint 2026 speakers highlights the growing overlap between traditional finance and blockchain.
The lineup includes MoneyGram CEO Anthony Soohoo, Allfunds CEO Annabel Spring, Bridge and Open Standard CEO Zach Abrams, Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal, Network State founder Balaji Srinivasan, Candy Digital CEO Tad Smith, Solana Labs CEO and Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko, and Solana Foundation President Lily Liu.
Additional speakers from financial institutions, technology companies, payment firms, government, and investment groups will join the event ahead of November.
The growing institutional presence reflects Solana’s broader push toward becoming infrastructure for global capital markets rather than only a platform for crypto applications.
Why London Matters
London was chosen for Breakpoint 2026 because of the city’s role as one of the world’s largest financial centers. London connects global investors, banks, family offices, hedge funds, insurers, legal firms, and financial infrastructure providers across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and beyond.
"London is where modern capital markets were invented. The opportunity now is to build markets that are global from day one, operate around the clock and can be accessed by anyone with an internet connection. Token Supercycle is about what happens when capital, assets and economic activity go onchain. Whether you are an institution deploying capital, a founder building new financial infrastructure or a policymaker shaping the rules, Breakpoint is where the people building that future come together. Bringing Breakpoint to the UK for the first time puts Solana's builders on the same stage as the institutions and policymakers now financing the onchain economy.” - Lily Liu, President, Solana Foundation.
By bringing Breakpoint to London, Solana aims to place its ecosystem directly in front of the institutions and policymakers shaping the future of financial markets.
More Than a Conference
Breakpoint has become a major gathering point for Solana’s global community, combining product launches, ecosystem updates, debates, workshops, and networking.
The event follows a record-breaking Breakpoint 2025, where more than 75 products launched across the ecosystem. The London edition is expected to feature a slew of announcements as teams continue building across finance, infrastructure, consumer applications, and AI.
The main conference will also sit alongside a wider calendar of ecosystem events, including the Solana Hacker House London Edition, Scale or Die, BlockZero, and community-led gatherings.
As always, SolanaFloor will be on the ground in London, ready to report all the action. If you can’t make it? Tune into the SolanaFloor Livestream, and we’ll bring the very best of Breakpoint directly to you.
