Origin Seoul 2026

Origin Seoul takes place August 31 – September 2, 2026, at Sky31 Convention in Lotte World Tower, Seoul.
Organized by ORIGIN X, the three-day event is structured across distinct programming layers: a private VIP Day on August 31 held at Bitcoin House Origin brings together speakers, sponsors, and industry leaders for closed-door networking; Industry Day on September 1 moves to the Sky31 Convention hall on the 31st floor of Lotte World Tower for keynotes, panels, and discussions spanning mining, infrastructure, capital, and Bitcoin's trajectory in Asia; Public Day on September 2 opens the conference to the broader community, with sessions focused on education, culture, and open access.
The speaker lineup draws from across the global Bitcoin ecosystem, with over 60 speakers expected in total. All sessions feature real-time interpretation.
Alongside the main conference, Origin Week extends the event across Seoul with workshops covering Bitcoin fundamentals, Lightning, and self-custody, community meetups at Bitcoin House Origin, partner-hosted side events, official afterparties, one-on-one mentoring sessions, and cultural programming.
