BlockCon Punta Cana is a Web3 business retreat scheduled for November 25–28, 2026, in the Dominican Republic. Most crypto conferences pack halls with panels and booths.
This one leans on closed-door talks, poolside sessions, and direct deal-making between finance, iGaming, and digital-asset companies.
The organizer lists 50+ speakers, 65+ countries, and 90+ companies. It also says half the audience is C-level. Those are the organizer's own figures, so they work better as targets than audited counts.
At its core, BlockCon Punta Cana 2026 is a four-day, all-inclusive business retreat organized by BlockCon Global. It pulls together five sectors that are increasingly overlapping: stablecoins, digital payments, Web3 infrastructure, regulated iGaming, and prediction markets.
The organizers describe their goal as building "decision density"—fewer casual attendees, more people who can actually sign deals. That framing has shaped everything from the venue choice to the guest list.
The table below pulls the core facts from the organizer's pages.

Real-world assets (RWA)
iGaming
Prediction markets
Regulation and policy
Stablecoins are tokens pegged to a currency like the US dollar. Real-world assets are items like bonds or property, represented as blockchain tokens.
Session types include keynotes, executive roundtables, leadership sessions, and industry-specific discussions. A full day-by-day agenda had not been published on the pages reviewed as of October 19, 2026.
The confirmed speaker roster spans banking, Web3 infrastructure, and iGaming policy. Below is a snapshot of names already tied to the event.

The community and business cards also show $395 and $795 beside the current prices. That looks like a pre-sale markdown, though the page does not label it. Final pricing should be confirmed at checkout.
The code COINGABBAR10 is listed for 10% off tickets. It applies through the ticket checkout page, which opens the official ticketing platform with the code attached.

Accepted payments include Mastercard, Visa, Tether, USDC, Bitcoin, and Makachain. The organizer does not say whether the discount covers every pass, so the final total at checkout is the number that counts.
Taxis and ride apps run from the airport to the BlockCon Punta Cana resort. Standard tickets do not include transfers, while VIP guests get private airport transfers.
The dress code is business casual for sessions and smart resort wear for social events. Dinners and casino activities may call for something more formal.
Event news is posted on the official X account, and nearby dates appear in the list of crypto conferences.
This is a first edition, so no past attendance data exists to test the organizer's claims. A closed-door format also means less public content to judge before booking.
The VIP pass bundles lodging, food, and drinks, a real saving for attendees who would book a resort anyway. The Community Pass suits those who only want daytime sessions.
Meetings create contact, not contracts. Attendance does not guarantee partnerships, funding, or sales.
Teams running their own gathering can submit a crypto event for listing.
BlockCon Punta Cana is a first-edition retreat blending Web3, finance, and iGaming in a resort setting. The official details are clear on dates, venue, and ticket tiers. The scale figures are claims, and the full agenda and speaker roster are still developing.
Before booking, the useful checks are the latest speaker list, the final checkout price, and whether the promo code applies to the chosen pass. The BlockCon Punta Cana 2026 listing keeps the details in one place.
