As regulatory frameworks begin to solidify across Europe, crypto professionals are preparing for one of the year’s most anticipated events: UN:BLOCK Conference 2025.
Held at the Hanzas Perons venue in the heart of Riga, this year’s edition will bring together industry leaders, compliance experts, investors, and innovators for two days of strategic insight into the future of blockchain and digital finance in the EU.
With the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation coming into effect, UN:BLOCK arrives at a pivotal time. The conference will provide key information for crypto companies interested in obtaining a MiCA license – a mandatory requirement for operating within the European Union’s regulatory framework. Legal and regulatory clarity is a recurring theme throughout this year’s program.
Regulatory Turning Point for Crypto in the EU
As Latvia positions itself as a destination for crypto businesses under the new MiCA regime, the conference will offer a closer look at the country’s approach to licensing and compliance. Panels will break down key legislation – including MiCA, DORA, and the travel rule – to help projects understand what’s needed to operate legally and competitively in Europe.
Keynote Speakers and Global Exchange Leaders
More than 100 speakers are scheduled to appear, representing top exchanges and institutions, including:
Vishal Sacheendran, Binance Dorian Vincileoni, KuCoin Ido Greenberg, GreenCoin Giovanni Cunti, Gate.MT Ksenia Drobyshevskaya, BitMart Viktors Valainis, Minister of Economics, Latvia Marine Krasovska, Latvijas BankaConference Agenda: From Compliance to Innovation
