Bitcoin Economy Conference Returns In-Person In Las Vegas

House of ZK has announced the inaugural in-person edition of The Bitcoin Economy Conference, scheduled to take place in Las Vegas on May 28, 2025. This one-day event, hosted at The Wynn, will focus on the future of Bitcoin as a programmable financial infrastructure. The conference will feature a comprehensive speaking program with experts from various fields, including cryptography, macroeconomics, protocol design, and Bitcoin scaling.

The virtual edition of the conference, held earlier this year, was a resounding success. It featured industry pioneers such as Bob Bodily, Eli Ben-Sasson, Robin Linus, and Udi Wertheimer, who discussed a range of topics from BitVM and OP_CAT to zkVMs and sustainable economic design. The shift in conversation from whether Bitcoin should scale to how quickly it can be built has set the stage for the Las Vegas edition, which promises to explore these themes in greater depth.

The Las Vegas edition will tackle some of the most pressing questions facing Bitcoin's future. Key topics include the potential of Bitcoin-native Layer 2 solutions as the foundation for decentralized Bitcoin banking, the impact of zkRollups on Bitcoin's competitiveness with other blockchains, and the integration of smart contract capabilities without compromising Bitcoin's core principles. Additionally, the conference will explore sustainable economic models for Bitcoin infrastructure, from individual yield to sovereign reserves.

This event is designed for those who believe that Bitcoin's potential extends beyond simply holding the asset. It will cover programmable layers, verifiable compute, and native yield, among other advanced topics. Many of the voices who shaped the first event will return, alongside new builders and economists who are helping to shape Bitcoin's next era.

The Bitcoin Economy Conference is presented by House of ZK, with support from leading teams across the ZK and Bitcoin ecosystems, including Stacks, GOAT Network, Fiamma, Threshold, and ZKM. For more information, attendees can stay updated through the House of ZK website and follow them on social media.

The conference aims to provide a platform for in-depth discussions and insights into the future of Bitcoin, making it a must-attend event for anyone interested in the evolving landscape of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. The event will feature a carefully crafted program of panels and keynotes, tackling the toughest questions facing Bitcoin’s next chapter, including the potential of Bitcoin-native Layer 2 solutions, the impact of zkRollups, and the integration of smart contract capabilities. The conference will also explore sustainable economic models for Bitcoin infrastructure, from individual yield to sovereign reserves, providing a comprehensive look at the future of Bitcoin as a programmable financial infrastructure.
