SolanaBreakpoint 2026 will run from November 15 to 17 at Olympia London, marking the first time the Solana Foundation has held its flagship conference in the United Kingdom.
The Foundation expects more than 8,000 attendees from over 100 countries, and it has already confirmed a first wave of speakers spanning finance, technology, and crypto.
Here is what has been announced so far.
Why Is Breakpoint Coming To London?
The Solana Foundation picked London because of its history as a global capital markets hub. The city has deep institutional finance expertise, a large pool of technical talent, and a track record of hosting the kind of policymakers and investors Solana wants at the table.
Lily Liu, President of the Solana Foundation, said London is where modern capital markets were invented, and that the goal now is to build markets that run globally, around the clock, and can be reached by anyone with an internet connection. She framed the London event as a way to put Solana’s builders on the same stage as the institutions and regulators now shaping onchain finance.
Who Is Speaking At Breakpoint 2026?
The first confirmed speakers come from payments, asset management, and crypto-native companies. Names announced so far include:
- Anthony Soohoo, CEO of MoneyGram
- Annabel Spring, CEO of Allfunds
- Zach Abrams, CEO of Bridge and Open Standard
- Tad Smith, CEO of Candy Digital
- Raoul Pal, co-founder and CEO of Real Vision
- Balaji Srinivasan, founder of The Network State
- Anatoly Yakovenko, Solana co-founder and CEO of Solana Labs
- Lily Liu, President of the Solana Foundation
- Peter Moore, owner of Wisla Krakow Football Club
The Foundation says more speakers from global institutions, payment companies, and government will be added before November.
What Is The “Token Supercycle” Theme?
This year’s conference is built around a theme the Foundation calls the Token Supercycle, its term forstablecoins, tokenized assets, payments, and AI-driven activity moving onto blockchains at scale. Rather than treating these as separate trends, the Foundation is presenting them as one connected shift in how money and assets move.
How Is The Program Structured?
The two main conference days each take a different angle on that theme.
- Day 1, “The Supercycle, Today”:Covers institutional activity already live on Solana, including stablecoins, payments, tokenized real-world assets, and the macro forces pushing financial infrastructure onchain.
- Day 2, “The Supercycle, Tomorrow”:Looks at what is coming next, including AI agents, prediction markets, consumer applications, and new forms of asset ownership built with programmable capital.
Where Does Solana Stand Today?
According to the Solana Foundation, the network now handles more than 50% of all blockchain transactions and has processed over $4.7 trillion in stablecoin volume in 2026 alone. It also reports more than $4 billion in real-world asset value on the network and holds over 50% of tokenized equity volume globally. Solana uses a proof-of-history model layered on top of proof-of-stake consensus, which is designed to let it scale toward roughly 65,000 transactions per second.
Solana Breakpoint 2026 brings the network’s flagship conference to Olympia London for three days in November, with a confirmed speaker list drawn from payments, asset management, and crypto, and a program split between what is already running onchain and what comes next. The event ties directly into Solana’s current numbers: over 50% of blockchain transaction share, trillions in stablecoin volume, and a majority share of tokenized equity trading, set against a SOL price that has recently pushed back above $100.
