Dutch Blockchain Week 2025

Dutch Blockchain Week 2025: The Netherlands Becomes the Epicenter of Global Web3 Innovation

From May 19 to 25, the Netherlands will become the focal point of the global blockchain community as Dutch Blockchain Week 2025 officially kicks off in Amsterdam. This year’s edition merges two flagship events — Dutch Blockchain Days and the original Dutch Blockchain Week — into one powerful week-long summit designed to map out the future of blockchain, Web3, and crypto.

Hosted at Meervaart in Amsterdam, the event will attract global leaders, entrepreneurs, developers, and policymakers, all gathering to discuss the most pressing issues and promising breakthroughs in decentralized technologies. The centerpiece of the week, the Dutch Blockchain Summit (May 21–22), is set to feature in-depth panels and exclusive keynote speeches from some of the industry's most influential voices.

Why This Week Matters

Blockchain, once a niche interest among cryptography enthusiasts, has matured into a global technology movement reshaping industries from finance to supply chains. Events like Dutch Blockchain Week offer a rare opportunity to see that evolution in real time.

Key speakers include policymakers such as Joachim Schwerin, financial leaders like Stephan Lutz, and innovators such as Max Rabinovitch, all of whom will offer insights into how blockchain can enhance transparency, security, and efficiency in both public and private sectors.

For those working in or exploring the industry, Dutch Blockchain Week 2025 is more than just a conference — it’s a real-world use case of how a country can serve as a staging ground for decentralized progress.

What Attendees Can Expect

• Workshops on emerging technologies in DeFi, NFTs, and zero-knowledge proofs
• Panel discussions on regulatory frameworks, digital identity, and cross-border interoperability
• Keynotes from Web3 founders, Ethereum developers, and crypto investors
• Networking events where industry insiders connect and collaborate

Throughout the week, attendees will dive into everything from the future of finance to ethical AI in blockchain — with a hands-on, interactive approach that bridges the gap between code and culture.

A Reflection of Europe’s Growing Role in Blockchain Policy

The EU has recently taken proactive steps toward creating a standardized framework for crypto regulation, notably with the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation set to roll out. Dutch Blockchain Week is poised to be the space where European innovation and compliance strategies meet — offering startups and enterprises a real-time look at how to scale legally and sustainably.

As blockchain continues to evolve from a disruptive idea into infrastructure for the future, Dutch Blockchain Week 2025 stands out as one of the most important stages for shaping that trajectory. For anyone interested in understanding or influencing the next chapter of Web3, Amsterdam is the place to be this May.
