Two full days of world-class talks, panels, and unscripted conversations centered on the ideas shaping what comes next:
Energy, AI, Freedom, and Bitcoin.
Below is a sample of the themes you can expect. These are not final, but they offer a glimpse into the conversations and ideas that will define the event.
Centralized money, centralized intelligence, centralized energy, centralized speech. The four systems that govern modern life, and the structural reasons each is failing under its own weight.
Speakers announced soon
Energy, compute, money, manufacturing, supply chains. From Bitcoin mining to AI data centers, what individuals, companies, and countries must build, power, own, and protect.
Speakers announced soon
Sound money, open intelligence, distributed energy, censorship-resistant speech. Replacement, not reform. What the new stack looks like and why it routes around the existing one.
Speakers announced soon
What civilization looks like when individual sovereignty becomes the default setting for humanity. The world the previous three blocks make possible.
Speakers announced soon

3 short 30-minute sessions on the basics, mining, and why Bitcoin is important for human freedom. The night before the Summit, for anyone who wants to walk in already fluent.
The evening before the Summit, an exclusive Welcome Reception. Speakers, partners, and only VIP Summit Pass holders come together for the first conversations of the week, setting the tone for the days ahead.
Following the first day of programming, an evening gathering for speakers, partners, and only VIP Summit Pass holders. The official sessions may end at 5, but the real connections often continue well into the evening.
To close the Summit, we’re taking the celebration to the water. On Saturday night, guests will board a private boat for an unforgettable evening of drinks, music, and sweeping views of the Miami skyline. VIP Summit Pass holders receive guaranteed access, while Summit Pass holders may purchase one of 200 additional boat party add-ons, bringing total capacity to 400 guests.
More side events to be announced.

Twenty oceanfront acres on Collins Avenue. Designed by Morris Lapidus in 1954, named to the National Register of Historic Places, and woven into American glamour ever since — from Goldfinger to Sinatra at La Ronde to a billion-dollar restoration that preserved every curve. Seventy years in, it is still the spot everyone in Miami wants to be seen in.
Fontainebleau was chosen because the best events do not end when the sessions do. They keep unfolding in the lobby, over dinner, by the pool, at the bar, and in the late-night conversations no agenda can manufacture. The Sovereign Summit is built around that kind of energy: an integrated resort experience where many attendees are staying on property, major moments happen on site, and the community stays together instead of scattering across the city. That is what makes Fontainebleau different. It turns the venue into the social engine of the Summit.
Five floors inside the Coastal Convention Center, connected to the Fontainebleau by skybridge.
Follow signs for the Coastal Convention Center, in the same direction as the Trésor Tower. Near the Trésor Tower, take the elevator labeled "Coastal Convention Center." Select the Skybridge Level. Walk across the skybridge, which will bring you directly to the third floor of the Coastal Convention Center.
As you pull into the area, look for the Coastal Convention Center sign on the building that's on the right-hand side. Walk through the doors toward the Trésor Tower area. Take the elevator labeled "Coastal Convention Center." Select the Skybridge Level. Walk across the skybridge, which will bring you directly to the third floor of the Coastal Convention Center.
On Collins Avenue, directly across from Soho Beach House, look for the pedestrian entrance to the Coastal Convention Center. Walk through the doors and take the elevator or stairs up into the convention center.

Two days in Miami Beach where Energy, AI, Freedom, and Bitcoin stop being separate conversations and start being one. Built for people who already sense these things are connected but haven’t had a room where all four are treated as equals. We say Bitcoin and not crypto intentionally. Sound money belongs here. Speculative assets don’t.
We do it in a resort, not a convention center, on purpose. When everyone is staying, eating, and drinking in the same place, the conference doesn’t end when the session does. That’s the design, not a happy accident.
What’s inside:
Come away with a clearer picture of where the world is going, the people making it happen, and connections that last well beyond the event.
For people who are curious to learn more about the world around them and better understand how quickly things are changing.
Builders, founders, investors, and researchers. People who work in energy, AI, finance, Bitcoin, or policy and sense that what’s happening in the other rooms matters to their room too. People who are new to Bitcoin and want the honest version, not the sales pitch. People who have been in Bitcoin for years and want to think bigger.
You don’t need to be an expert in all four pillars. You just need to be genuinely curious about at least one of them and open to where the others take you.
Bitcoin ≠ Crypto. If you disagree, this conference isn’t for you. If you don’t understand, this conference is definitely for you to get there. We treat Bitcoin as sound money and a freedom technology, not a market to trade. Bitcoin sits alongside Energy, AI, and Freedom as one of four equal threads.
Most Bitcoin conferences start with the right idea and drift. Sponsors come from finance and trading, so the program fills up with price predictions, ETF panels, and institutional adoption talk. It’s not wrong, but it’s not the whole picture. The soul of Bitcoin -- sound money, energy, freedom, individual sovereignty -- gets crowded out by whatever fills the most seats and sells the most sponsorships.
Size and venue matter more than most organizers admit. Too small and it’s a meetup. Too big and it’s a trade show with fifteen competing stages and a convention hall that swallows the program. We chose an integrated resort and a single stage on purpose. The format forces focus. The setting keeps everyone in the same place, long after the last session ends.
The right size. The right venue. The right topics. Curated enough to be worth your time, big enough to matter.
Fair question. Inaugural events live or die on curation, not scale, and curation is exactly what we are obsessing over: the speakers, the venue, the format, the sponsors, the crowd.
The honest answer is that you can’t fully trust a first edition until it happens. What we can tell you is who is involved, what we’re building, and why we think it’s worth showing up for. The speaker lineup, the venue, and the program will speak for themselves as they come together. Follow along and make your own call.
What we will promise: every sponsor in the room is here because they’re aligned with what this conference stands for. We chose them carefully, and that same standard applies to every part of the program.
Full access to both days of the summit. Every mainstage session, the expo floor, the Workshops Area, and the Open Source Area. Food and drink on site during summit hours.
The Summit Pass is the full conference experience, with the exception of VIP Areas and VIP-only events. If you’re here for the ideas, the sessions, and the people, the Summit Pass gets you everything you need.
The Saturday Boat After Party is currently the only official side event open to Summit Pass holders. More side events will be announced as we get closer to February.
Everything in the Summit Pass, plus a lot more. Reserved front-row seating. A dedicated VIP area on the 3rd floor for the duration of the summit. And three events that are the real reason people upgrade.
The Thursday Welcome Reception kicks the weekend off with only the VIPs before the conference opens. The Friday Oceanfront Soiree is another VIP only night and another opportunity to mingle with the speakers, sponsors, and other like-minded people. The Saturday Boat After Party closes it out the right way with a fun big closing party.
The VIP Summit Pass is capped at 200 people. At that size, you will meet everyone who matters. That’s the point.
Side events are where a lot of the magic happens. They run before, during, and after the main conference days and range from intimate dinners and workshops to larger evening events. Some are included with your ticket. Some are available to purchase separately. Some are VIP only.
Think of them as the unofficial official program. The conversations that start on the main stage tend to continue at the side events, often with the same speakers in a much smaller room.
Check out the Side Events section for the current lineup. More will be announced as we get closer to February.
Full refunds through December 1, 2026. Free transfers through January 28, 2027, no questions asked.
Life happens. If your situation changes and neither option works, email us and we’ll figure it out.
Yes, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. On-chain and Lightning both work. Lightning settles fastest. Price is identical however you pay.
Stay on property. The conference is built around the Fontainebleau and that’s where most of the action happens, on and off the clock. Click here for our preferred-rate room block. For off-property options, Victoire Voyages can help with suggestions, rates, and perks.
There isn’t one, but dress for where you might end up. Pool attire at the pool. What you’d normally wear at a conference for your role. Something decent for Miami nights that could go anywhere. After all, LIV is at the Fontainebleau. Miami in February is warm but not hot, so check the forecast before you pack.
The Fontainebleau is fully ADA-accessible. For anything else: dietary restrictions, nursing rooms, prayer space, quiet areas, or anything that helps you have a good experience, email us early. Earlier requests get better answers.
Every attendee needs a paid ticket, including kids under 18.
For the Summit Pass, we offer a Kids Summit Pass for children attending with a parent or guardian.
For the VIP Summit Pass, we do not offer a Kids VIP Summit Pass. Parents with a VIP Summit Pass who want to bring their kids to VIP areas and VIP-only events will need to purchase a full-price VIP Summit Pass for them.
If your child looks 18 or older, we may ask for proof of age at the door.
Miami Beach in February is also a great city to bring the family for the days around the conference.
