NZCryptoCon Launches as New Zealand’s Largest Crypto & Web3 Event, with Swyftx Named as Official Naming Rights Partner Sponsored

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:

"Crypto adoption in New Zealand is already mainstream. Research shows nearly half of Kiwis have owned, currently own, or are actively considering digital assets. The community is here, the momentum is real, and now it’s time for a major event that matches the scale of what’s already happening on the ground."

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.

"We’re excited to partner with NZCryptoCon to help grow awareness and provide accessible, trusted knowledge about cryptocurrency to as many Kiwis as possible," said a Swyftx spokesperson.

"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.
