STRIDE is Heading to Consensus Miami 2026

May 5–7 | Miami Beach Convention Center

The biggest gathering in digital assets is almost here. Consensus Miami 2026, hosted by CoinDesk, brings together 20,000+ senior leaders from crypto, traditional finance, technology, and policy for three days of deals, conversations, and decisions that shape how global finance actually moves. We will be there.

What is Consensus?

Consensus is CoinDesk's annual flagship event and the largest conference of its kind in the world. This year it runs from 5–7 May 2026 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, drawing attendees from over 100 countries and institutions managing trillions in assets.

The theme for 2026 reflects where the industry is: crypto at institutional scale, with AI agents entering markets and traditional finance no longer watching from the sidelines. Three forces are converging at Consensus this year, crypto infrastructure, institutional adoption, and agentic commerce, and the agenda reflects all three.

This is where relationships get built, deals get started, and the next infrastructure decisions get made.

Why STRIDE is attending

STRIDE exists to solve a specific problem: banks want to work with stablecoins, but their core systems were not built for it. STRIDE OS is the middleware layer that bridges that gap, enabling banks to accept, settle, and manage stablecoin flows without rebuilding what they already have.

Consensus is where the institutions we are building for show up. Asset managers, regional banks, payment networks, compliance teams, and the regulators that work alongside them all gather in the same place at the same time. For STRIDE, that matters.

Our work is targeting banks in APAC, the Middle East, and Africa — markets where remittance volumes are high, stablecoin adoption is accelerating, and the infrastructure gap is most acute. Consensus gives us three days to have the conversations that take months to arrange otherwise.

What we want to talk about

The middleware gap. Most stablecoin infrastructure discussions focus on the rails — the protocols, the wallets, the on-chain settlement. Fewer conversations address what sits between those rails and a bank's core system. That is where STRIDE operates, and it is a gap the industry is starting to take seriously.

Compliance without friction. Banks do not avoid stablecoins because they lack interest. They avoid them because the compliance overhead is unclear. STRIDE OS is built to work within existing regulatory frameworks, not around them. We want to talk to compliance leads and risk teams about what that looks like in practice.

Institutional-grade deployment. Our deployment model is designed to go live in six months. For banks evaluating their options, that timeline changes the conversation. We are happy to walk through the architecture and what a realistic integration looks like.

Come find us

If you are at Consensus and working on stablecoin infrastructure, institutional digital asset adoption, or banking technology in emerging markets, we would like to meet.

Reach out before the conference to arrange time, or find us on the floor. Whether you are a bank exploring options, an investor tracking infrastructure plays, or a partner building in adjacent space, the conversation is worth having.
