Overview

EthCC is the most prominent annual Ethereum community conference in Europe and one of the most technically substantive events in the entire Web3 calendar. Non-profit and community-run, it is sole in its commitment to the Ethereum ecosystem — no multi-chain hedging, no retail programming. Historically drawing 6,400+ Ethereum developers, researchers, and builders, it covers the full technical stack from L1 EIPs and consensus layer research to L2 scaling, ZK cryptography, and Ethereum's evolving social and governance layer. Rotates between European cities annually.

What to Expect

  • 1

    The most technically rigorous Ethereum programming of any conference globally — talks are peer-reviewed and calibrated to the people actually building the protocol.

  • 2

    Community-led sessions, workshops, and hackathons running alongside the main programme, maintaining the grassroots energy that distinguishes EthCC from commercial alternatives.

  • 3

    A surrounding week of satellite events and hackathons in the host city, often rivalling the main conference in terms of technical depth and networking value.

  • 4

    Non-profit structure means no sponsor-driven programming — content reflects what the Ethereum community actually needs to discuss, not what sponsors want promoted.

CFC St. Moritz

Jan 14–16, 2026St. Moritz, Switzerland

CFC St. Moritz is the definitive anti-conference for Web3's most senior dealmakers. Limited to just 250 carefully selected investors, founders, and policymakers, it eschews the expo-floor model entirely in favour of intimate workshop sessions, live tokenisation demonstrations, and unscripted conversations that only happen when everyone in the room is a principal. Set against the Swiss Alpine backdrop of St. Moritz during Davos Week, it is where digital assets and traditional finance actually talk — not just talk about talking.
