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.

Coinbase Slams ‘Patchwork’ State Crypto Laws, Calls for Federal Preemption

The post Coinbase Slams ‘Patchwork’ State Crypto Laws, Calls for Federal Preemption appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief Coinbase has filed a letter with the DOJ urging federal preemption of state crypto laws, citing Oregon’s securities suit, New York’s ETH stance, and staking bans. Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal called state actions “government run amok,” warning that patchwork enforcement “slows innovation and harms consumers.” A legal expert told Decrypt that states risk violating interstate commerce rules and due process, and DOJ support for preemption may mark a potential turning point. Coinbase has gone on the offensive against state regulators, petitioning the Department of Justice that a patchwork of lawsuits and licensing schemes is tearing America’s crypto market apart. “When Oregon can sue us for services that are legal under federal law, something’s broken,” Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal tweeted on Tuesday. “This isn’t federalism—this is government run amok.” When Oregon can sue us for services that are legal under federal law, something’s broken.

Vitalik Buterin lays out new Ethereum roadmap at EDCON

Vitalik Buterin lays out new Ethereum roadmap at EDCON

The post Vitalik Buterin lays out new Ethereum roadmap at EDCON appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. At EDCON 2025 in Osaka, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin delivered fresh details of Ethereum’s technical roadmap, delineating both short-term scaling goals and longer-term protocol transformations. The immediate priority, according to slides from the presentation, is scaling at the L1 level by raising the gas limit while maintaining decentralization. Tools such as block-level access lists, ZK-EVMs, gas repricing, and slot optimization were highlighted as means to improve throughput and efficiency. A central theme of the presentation was privacy, divided into protections for on-chain “writes” (transactions, voting, DeFi operations) and “reads” (retrieving blockchain state). Write privacy could be achieved through client-side zero-knowledge proofs, encrypted voting, and mixnet-based transaction relays. Read privacy efforts include trusted execution environments, private information retrieval techniques, dummy queries to obscure access patterns, and partial state nodes that reveal only necessary data. These measures aim to reduce information leakage across both ends of user interaction. In the medium term, Ethereum’s focus shifts to cross-Layer-2 interoperability. Vitalik described trustless L2 asset transfers, proof aggregation, and faster settlement mechanisms as key milestones toward a seamless rollup ecosystem. Faster slots and stronger finality, supported by techniques like erasure coding and three-stage finalization (3SF), are also in scope to enhance responsiveness and security. The roadmap also includes Stage 2 rollup advancements to strengthen verification efficiency, alongside a call for broader community participation to help build and maintain these improvements. The long-term “Lean Ethereum” blueprint emphasizes security, simplicity and optimization, with ambitions for quantum-resistant cryptography, formal verification of the protocol, and adoption of ideal primitives for hashing, signatures, and zero-knowledge proofs. Buterin stressed that these improvements are not just for scalability but to make Ethereum a stable, trustworthy foundation for the broader decentralized ecosystem. This is a developing story.
