Passes & Registration
Early Check- In lets attendees pick up their official conference wristband on-site before the event starts. If an attendee decides to check-in early, they'll already have their wristband and can head straight into the conference without waiting in the main check-in line on Day 1 (Pro and Whale Pass holders) or Day 2 (GA pass holders).
Regular Check- In also happens on-site and usually available an hour before the conference begins.
At both, attendees will scan their e-pass at Check- In area and in exchange they'll receive an official conference wristband, which is needed for entry and access to all days of the event.
Exact times for both Early Check- In and Check- In will be shared closer to the conference, so please check back on this page or keep an eye on your email for updates.
Your official pass will be issued as an e-pass (QR code), and emailed to you approximately two weeks before the conference. Please present it on your phone (or bring a printed copy, if preferred) at on-site Registration.
After scanning your e-pass, you will receive an official conference wristband, which is required for entry and provides access to all conference activities on both days.
You can buy a pass with USD at checkout using a credit or debit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover), or pay with On-chain Bitcoin (BTC).

A VIP experience thoughtfully curated by its very own Whale Service team.
When you purchase a Whale Pass you unlock access to the exclusive Backstage VIP lounge, Whale Night Party to network and party in style, Whale-Only content sessions, elevated opportunities and invites, luxury hotel options, dedicated Whale Services Liaisons and much more.
As the all-inclusive VIP experience at Bitcoin 2026, each Whale Pass is valid for one (1) individual entry to the Conference events (including Whale Night).
Pro Day, occurring on the first day of Bitcoin 2026, is a gathering of the world’s leading businesses and projects within the Bitcoin ecosystem.
