The inaugural Bitcoin MENA Conference is set to take place on December 9–10, 2024, at the ADNEC Centre in Abu Dhabi — the first event of its kind in the Middle East and North Africa. Part of the global Bitcoin Conference series organized by BTC Inc., the event aims to spotlight Bitcoin's rapid expansion across the MENA region and position the UAE as a leading hub for the digital asset economy.
A Premier Bitcoin Event Comes to the UAE
Co-organized by ADNEC Group and BTC Inc., the Bitcoin MENA Conference will bring together experts, investors, and innovators for high-value discussions, networking opportunities, and an expo featuring the latest in technology and art. The conference underscores the UAE's strengths: deep capital resources, a business-friendly regulatory environment, and a thriving startup ecosystem.
The event is part of the same global series that produced Bitcoin 2024 in Nashville, which drew more than 22,000 attendees — setting the benchmark for what the MENA edition aims to achieve.

- Anthony Scaramucci — former White House Communications Director and prominent Bitcoin advocate - Vishal Sacheendran — Binance's Head of Regional Markets - Prince Filip Karadjordjević of Serbia — CSO of JAN3 and General Partner at Ego Death Capital - Dr. Marwan Ahmed Al Zarouni — a leading voice at the Dubai Blockchain Summit
