Bitcoin and Blockchain- The Year ahead in 2026!

**Out of an abundance of caution due to continued icy road conditions and parking concerns, we’ve decided to reschedule tomorrow night’s Bitcoin and Blockchain Meetup.
The meetup has been moved to Weds, February 18th 6pm-8:00pm in the evening and join us for the Blockchain Demo day February 19 at the VA General Assembly 8:30am-11:00am which includes breakfast brought to you by the BSV Association and the VBC. Safety comes first, and we want to ensure everyone can travel comfortably and without risk.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to seeing everyone on the 18th. Stay safe.**

Join us for a dynamic, forward-looking conversation as we kick off the year with a deep dive into where Bitcoin and blockchain are headed—and what it means for builders, investors, businesses, and policymakers alike.
The past year delivered rapid shifts in markets, regulation, and real-world adoption. The year ahead promises even more momentum. From Bitcoin’s evolving role as financial infrastructure, to blockchain’s expanding impact on payments, capital markets, identity, and enterprise use cases, we’ll explore the signals that matter most and separate enduring trends from short-term noise.

This meetup is designed to be practical, engaging, and conversational. Expect thoughtful discussion around regulatory clarity, innovation happening on the ground, and how Virginia fits into the broader national and global landscape. Whether you’re actively building, investing, advising, or simply looking to better understand the technology shaping the future of finance and the internet, this evening will offer valuable perspective.

Connect with fellow members, industry leaders, and curious minds over drinks and discussion as we set the tone for the year ahead—and outline what’s next for Bitcoin, blockchain, and the growing ecosystem around them.
