What Was Peru Blockchain Conference 2024?
Peru Blockchain Conference was held in Lima, Peru, on 26 and 27 April 2024, simultaneously accessible online. A dedicated blockchain conference in hybrid format, it brought together developers, investors, and founders both in-person in Lima and virtually for two days exploring DeFi, tokenisation, and Peru's evolving but still-unsettled crypto regulatory landscape. The official page sat on the Peru Blockchain Conference site. By combining in-person Lima attendance with online access, the event extended its Andean reach to regional attendees unable to travel.
Peru's genuine legal vacuum around crypto — neither formally regulated nor banned — gave this conference's discussions notably distinctive practical stakes for Latin America. To follow similar events, check the crypto events calendar and our crypto summits list.
Key Themes at Peru Blockchain Conference 2024
The two-day hybrid agenda explored Andean blockchain development:
- DeFi and Web3 development.
- Peru's legal vacuum and regulatory outlook.
- Hybrid in-person and online community building.
- Andean and Latin American ecosystem networking.
The hybrid format gave the conference genuine regional reach across Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and other Andean countries whose attendees could engage virtually without travelling to Lima. Many guests also tracked broader blockchain events through CoinGabbar.
How Peru's Legal Vacuum Shaped This Conference's Conversation
Peru's SBS and SMV have explicitly stated they are not the competent authorities to regulate cryptoassets, leaving the country in a genuine legal vacuum where crypto is neither prohibited nor formally supervised. By April 2024, Supreme Decree 006-2023-JUS required virtual asset service providers to register for anti-money-laundering purposes, and the Lima Stock Exchange had been offering crypto ETF access through licensed brokerages since February 2024 — yet a comprehensive Framework Law remained stalled in Congress. This gave Peru Blockchain Conference's regulatory sessions unusually concrete practical stakes: attendees operated within real legal uncertainty, not speculative future regulation.
The hybrid format meaningfully extended this conversation's reach: Web3 developers from Bolivia, Ecuador, and Colombia could join virtually, connecting Peru's blockchain community with neighbours sharing similar Andean economic contexts without requiring expensive Lima travel.

Impact of Peru Blockchain Conference on the Andean Web3 Ecosystem
A hybrid Lima conference advanced the Andean blockchain ecosystem through genuine regional extension via online access. It connected in-person Lima builders with virtual Andean participants across the region. It surfaced Peru's legal vacuum alongside concrete developments like the Lima Stock Exchange's ETF pathway. And it reinforced Lima's role as the Andean region's emerging blockchain conference hub. Each session reflected that practically-urgent, regionally-extended character.
