Ripple, Avalanche (AVAX), and the Solana (SOL) Foundation are among the confirmed participants at Southeast Asia Blockchain Week in Bangkok.
Confirmed Lineup Spans Regulators and Industry Leaders
The announcement also lists StraitsX, BitGo, Anchorage Digital, Canton, Xapo Bank, Token X and AWS among the participants, with an agenda spanning artificial intelligence, payments and blockchain infrastructure.
Regional regulators are also expected to attend, though the release stops short of naming specific agencies.
The lineup includes K-pop act Token X, a less conventional booking for a blockchain conference and one that appears geared toward pulling in mainstream Southeast Asian audiences.
The mix of institutional crypto firms, regulators and pop entertainment fits a broader outreach playbook that large Asian crypto events have leaned on throughout 2026.

Background
Southeast Asia has grown steadily as a hub for crypto events and regulation since 2023. Thailand and Singapore have both moved toward clearer licensing frameworks for digital asset businesses.
Bangkok in particular has hosted several major Web3 gatherings as Thai regulators expanded their oversight of the sector. Ripple has maintained an active presence across Asia, partly driven by its cross-border payments focus and its ongoing relationships with regional financial institutions.
Avalanche and the Solana Foundation have each pursued developer and institutional partnerships across Southeast Asia over the past two years.

AWS and AI Tracks Signal Expanding Agenda
The presence of AWS hints at a wider conference theme. AI and blockchain infrastructure sit near the top of the agenda, a pairing that has shown up at most major regional crypto gatherings in 2026.
AWS's involvement points to enterprise-focused sessions running alongside the more token-heavy programming typical of these events. XRP (XRP) is tied to Ripple's participation and is likely to surface in payments panels.
Canton, which runs a blockchain network built for institutional finance, is another name worth flagging. Its appearance alongside StraitsX, a stablecoin issuer active in Singapore and Indonesia, reinforces the payments and settlement thread running through the program.
