Short Intro to Paris Blockchain Week
Paris Blockchain Week is one of the biggest events in Europe, dedicated to blockchain, Web3, and digital asset innovation on a massive scale. The event is organized annually in Paris, attracting crypto industry leaders, global companies, developers, regulators, and all crypto enthusiasts to discuss the current state of decentralized technologies and how they could be improved.
The 2025 PBW event was held from April 6th through the 8th. However, crypto discussions and presentations weren’t the only activities at the PBW event. Attendees could also enjoy keynotes, panels, workshops, and, of course, networking opportunities.
While no day is the same in the crypto world, the key topics of the Paris Blockchain Week were ones that continue to be a focus for the industry. Namely, the technological advancement in DeFi and NFTs, regulatory changes, global enterprise move towards blockchain tech, and the controversial application of the metaverse.
Day 1: Opening with Impact
PBW lasted only a few days, but the Paybis team was active right through the door. Our COO, Konstantin Vasilenko, kickstarted the Paris Blockchain Week with a discussion for Bitcoin Magazine.
During this talk, Konstantin talked about Paybis and how we stand out from other exchanges by focusing on optimizing user experience, developing enterprise-level tools and solutions, and preparing for regulatory changes.
Later that evening, Paybis co-sponsored a popular Bitmart side event together with MetaEra, Blockdaemon, and ZetaChain. Amidst all the talks and discussions, our team also had the opportunity to catch up with thought leader Immanuel Rodulfo, exploring how exchanges are becoming gateways for mass crypto adoption.
Day 2: Panel Conversations and Web3 Synergy
We might’ve started the first day of PBW strong, but the next day was just as busy. Konstantin sat down with Player1Taco to talk about Paybis, our products, services, Bitcoin, and the changing crypto scene.
Later that day, Konstantin took to the stage, participating in a panel discussion on “The Influence of Digital Assets in the Global Economy”, a topic that’s right up our alley. Paybis has been developing business-level crypto solutions for mass payouts, business crypto wallets, OTC solutions, and payment facilitation.
Konstantin was joined on the panel by other leaders from Flipster, Fastex, Animoca Brands, and Freedx, all of which was moderated by Mark Fielding. The discussions circled around how businesses can use cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology to increase their revenue, customer experience, and boost growth without much complexity.
In another panel discussion on “Beyond Coins: Crypto’s Impact on Gaming”, Konstantin spoke with true legends like Robby Yung, CEO of Investments at Animoca Brands, Michael Dabrowski, CEO & Co-Founder at Elympics, and Zenya Bürki-Kwan, Ecosystem Manager at Animoca. The key highlights of this panel were the rising role of crypto in gaming and how blockchain creates new opportunities for ownership.
Moreover, our team went to the Animoca Mosaic side event, which Paybis co-sponsored with The Sandbox, Card3, PyratzLabs, and more. Additionally, Konstantin also gave an interview for Genzio Media, covering Paybis’s roadmap and the broader market landscape.
Day 3: Founders, Investors, and a Moulin Rouge Finale
After two completely packed days of networking, knowledge-sharing, discussions, and exploration, the last day of the Paris Blockchain Week finished off just as actively as it started. Between Investors & Founders Day, the Start-in-Block finale with Meet the Drapers, and a surprise chat with French football star Kingsley Coman.
