The City Crypto Club is where London's crypto, blockchain and digital asset leaders come together to discuss what no one talks about publicly: regulatory uncertainty, institutional skepticism and how to explain crypto to a board that still thinks Bitcoin is a scam.
Eight times a year, we gather for intimate dinners. No pitching tokens, no shilling projects, just honest conversations about building legitimate businesses in an industry the establishment doesn't understand yet.
How It Works
One Speaker, One Topic
Each dinner features one crypto or digital asset leader presenting their Executive Summary on that evening's topic: 3 to 5 key points on what regulators are really thinking, what's actually working in institutional adoption, or what everyone gets wrong about the space.
Everyone Brings Their Summary
All attendees prepare their own Executive Summary (3 to 5 points) on the topic. No slides. No lengthy presentations. Just your sharpest insights ready to share.
Then We Talk
After the opening, the conversation goes where it needs to go. Recent discussions:
- "How do you educate a board that thinks crypto is gambling?"
- "Navigating FCA registration without killing your business model"
- "When traditional finance finally shows up, what changes?"
Who This Is For
- CEOs and founders of crypto exchanges, protocols and digital asset firms
- Heads of digital assets at traditional financial institutions
- Crypto entrepreneurs navigating regulation and institutional adoption
- Leaders building businesses at the intersection of traditional finance and crypto
Not for: Retail investors, crypto influencers, or anyone trying to pitch their token.
