KBW 2025 Presents Convergence of Washington Policymakers, Institutions, and AI–Crypto Innovation in Seoul
Seoul, South Korea, September 1st, 2025, Chainwire
Korea Blockchain Week (KBW), organized by FactBlock, today announced the theme and title sponsors for its 2025 conference, set to take place this September in Seoul. KBW 2025 will unite leading policymakers, technologists, and institutions to explore the intersection of regulation, artificial intelligence, and digital assets.
For the first time, senior officials from Washington, D.C., including representatives from the White House, will participate in Asia’s premier Web3 conference. Featured speakers such as Donald Trump Jr. and Bo Hines underscore Seoul’s growing role as a bridge between U.S. regulatory frameworks and Asia’s fast-emerging blockchain and AI ecosystems.
The conference will highlight the increasing participation of institutions and the rise of new frameworks in Web3. In Seoul, banks, stablecoin issuers, protocols, and regulators will gather to examine how emerging frameworks, including Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs), are reshaping market infrastructure, compliance, and cross-border capital flows. The event will serve as a global stage for dialogue between traditional finance and decentralized systems.
While the convergence of AI and blockchain remains a major theme, KBW 2025 will also emphasize the broader structural shifts redefining digital assets. From institutional adoption to evolving compliance frameworks, the conference will spotlight how capital, code, and governance are advancing in tandem.
“KBW 2025 arrives at a historic moment for our industry,” said Seonik Jeon, CEO of FactBlock. “As digital assets enter a new era of institutional engagement and sharper regulatory focus, Seoul provides the perfect venue to unite Washington policymakers with innovators from across Asia. We are proud to make KBW a forum where policy meets technology and ideas translate into action.”
This year’s title sponsors include American BTC, Peaq, Hack VC, Gaia, Spacecoin, DogeOS, ORBT, TON, and TON Strategy—reflecting the diverse spectrum of Web3 infrastructure, venture capital, and protocol innovation represented at the event.
Since its inception, KBW has grown into one of the world’s leading Web3 conferences, bringing together builders, regulators, and institutions from across the globe. The 2025 edition aims to advance dialogue on the future of finance and technology, reinforcing Korea’s role as a hub for digital asset adoption.
