Jack Mallers has been officially announced as a featured speaker at Bitcoin 2026, set to take place at The Venetian in Las Vegas from April 27 to 29, 2026. Mallers, known for making a significant mark in Bitcoin’s history, will share insights on the cryptocurrency’s growing influence on payments, capital markets, and global finance. As the Co-Founder and CEO of Twenty One Capital and the Founder and CEO of Strike, Mallers holds a pivotal position at two leading companies in the Bitcoin landscape.
Twenty One Capital made headlines when it launched on the New York Stock Exchange in December 2025, boasting a treasury of 43,514 Bitcoin—making it the third-largest public corporate Bitcoin holder globally, trailing only behind Strategy and MARA Holdings. The company has significant backing, being majority-owned by Tether and Bitfinex, with additional stakes from SoftBank Group. Mallers has emphasized a commitment to transparency through the publication of on-chain proof of holdings, allowing for real-time verification by shareholders. In an interview on CNBC, he articulated the company’s strategy, stating their intention to “buy as much Bitcoin as we possibly can,” positioning Twenty One Capital not merely as a treasury but as a dynamic Bitcoin-native business.
Strike, the financial platform Mallers founded in 2020, has quickly established itself as a prominent Bitcoin service. Utilizing Bitcoin’s Lightning Network, the platform enables users to send and receive payments, exchange Bitcoin without fees, and even convert their paychecks to Bitcoin—all while eliminating the need for prior cryptocurrency experience. In March 2026, Strike received both a BitLicense and a money transmitter license from New York State, solidifying its ability to operate within one of the most regulated digital asset environments in the U.S. Mallers asserted that Strike is on track to become the leading Bitcoin financial institution and expressed excitement about extending their mission into New York, often regarded as the global finance capital.
With Twenty One Capital now publicly traded and Strike expanding nationwide, Mallers arrives at the Bitcoin 2026 conference with unprecedented institutional credibility. He maintains a steadfast belief that Bitcoin represents honest money and that the ongoing development of infrastructure around it will shape the future of global finance.
Bitcoin 2026 is being marketed as the premier Bitcoin event of the year, bringing together a diverse array of participants from builders to investors, miners, policymakers, and enthusiasts.
