Auckland, New Zealand, is set to host its largest and most ambitious cryptocurrency and Web3 event to date, with the launch of NZCryptoCon, proudly presented in partnership with Swyftx, the event’s official Naming Rights Partner.

Taking place in 6-7 June 2026, NZCryptoCon will bring together thousands of attendees from across New Zealand, Australia, and the wider Asia-Pacific region, marking a major milestone for the country’s digital finance and technology ecosystem. The event is designed to educate, connect, and inspire – creating a platform where industry leaders, builders, investors, businesses, and newcomers can come together to explore the future of crypto, blockchain, and Web3.

As New Zealand’s first large-scale crypto convention, NZCryptoCon will feature a comprehensive multi-stage program including keynote presentations, panel discussions, exhibitor showcases, and curated networking experiences. Topics will span cryptocurrency fundamentals, blockchain innovation, regulation, security, decentralised finance (DeFi), NFTs, Web3 infrastructure, and the growing role of digital assets in the global financial system.

In relation to the timing and relevance for a national crypto event, CEO & Founder of NZCryptoCon, Dave Haslop, said:

Swyftx, one of the region’s most trusted and user-friendly digital asset exchanges, has been confirmed as the Naming Rights Partner for the inaugural event. Known for its strong focus on education, accessibility, and responsible participation in crypto markets, Swyftx’s involvement reflects a shared commitment to empowering individuals with the knowledge and tools needed to engage confidently with digital assets.

“By joining forces with Easy Crypto, Swyftx is now the largest crypto exchange in New Zealand, and a significant part of our focus is dedicated to raising crypto awareness, investing in education, and supporting opportunities that drive responsible adoption. NZCryptoCon shares these same objectives, and we’re delighted to be part of an event that is helping shape the future of crypto in New Zealand.”

NZCryptoCon aims to play a central role in connecting the local ecosystem while linking New Zealand to the global digital asset industry.

“New Zealand has incredible talent and one of the most engaged grassroots crypto communities anywhere, but it’s been missing a national stage,” Haslop added. “NZCryptoCon becomes the annual hub that brings everyone together – founders, investors, builders, and the next wave of newcomers – to connect locally and plug into the global industry.”

The partnership with Swyftx will see the exchange play a central role across the event experience, including on-stage content, educational sessions, branding integration, and exclusive activations designed to support both first-time attendees and experienced participants.

NZCryptoCon is expected to attract a diverse audience, including retail investors, developers, fintech professionals, startups, institutional players, policymakers, students, and those simply curious about the space. Beyond the conference program, the event will place a strong emphasis on community and culture, with curated networking events and partner-led experiences designed to foster meaningful collaboration.

Early-release tickets for NZCryptoCon are now available, with limited-time launch pricing. Further announcements, including speaker line-ups, exhibitor partners, and detailed program highlights, will be released in the coming months.

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
