TL;DR
- BNB Chain turns 5 this September.
- We’re marking the milestone with 5 global events in Tokyo, Mumbai, Hong Kong, NYC, and São Paulo.
- Each event is built for founders, builders, and our community to connect, share, and shape what comes next.
Five years ago, BNB Chain set out with a bold vision: to onboard the next billion users to Web3. What began as an ambitious experiment has grown into one of the largest and most active blockchain ecosystems in the world. From DeFi and gaming to tokenization and AI, builders on BNB Chain have pushed the boundaries of what’s possible and the community continues to grow stronger every year.
But we know this is just the beginning. That’s why, as we celebrate our 5th anniversary, we’re doing what matters most, bringing the community together.
This August, we’re hosting five events in five cities across the world. Each one is designed to spark new ideas, open new doors, and strengthen the connections that fuel real progress.
Where You’ll Find Us
Mumbai – August 23
BNB Hack Bombay is where India’s builders go all in. A two-day innovation sprint across AI, DeSoc, DeSci, and DePIN, it offers $100,000+ in rewards, mentorship, and incubation support. Students, hackers, founders, and developers will push new ideas live on BNB Chain.
Tokyo – August 24
In Tokyo, we’ll mark five years of BNB Chain with a focus on what’s driving blockchain adoption in Japan and beyond. From tokenized assets and yen-pegged stablecoins to institutional DeFi and a thriving GameFi scene, the Tokyo Edition will bring together builders, VCs, and industry leaders for panels, trendspotting, and networking, plus a special guest session with a very special guest.
Hong Kong – August 29
At Bitcoin Asia, BNB Chain will spotlight Finance 3.0 and the bridge between traditional finance and blockchain. Expect keynotes on tokenization and institutional adoption, panels on DeFi’s evolution with RWAs and stablecoins, and a showcase of ecosystem projects from PancakeSwap to Venus. With banks, exchanges, VCs, and stablecoin issuers in the room, this event is built for deal-making, trendspotting, and shaping the financial future on BNB Chain.
New York City – August 29
The NYC edition will feature a keynote reflecting on five years of growth and laying out a bold vision for the future, a panel with industry leaders on how blockchain is reshaping finance, culture, and tech, and a community celebration with drinks, music, and networking. It’s Web3 energy, New York style.
São Paulo – August 29
In São Paulo, BNB Chain’s 5th anniversary brings together one of the most vibrant crypto communities in Latin America. The first half of the event will feature dynamic panels with standout projects, strategic partners, and VCs sharing insights on the future of Web3 and investment trends. The second half shifts into a lively community hangout with music, food, and plenty of networking; an opportunity to build connections and celebrate five years of progress in a festive atmosphere.
Why This Matters
For builders, these events aren’t just about looking back. They’re about looking forward together. The conversations we’ll have, on DeFi, stablecoins, tokenization, and community growth, will set the stage for the next chapter of BNB Chain.
Five years in, we’ve proven what’s possible when builders rally around a shared vision. The next five will be defined by what we create together.
