Cregis to Host Institutional Payment & On-Chain Financial Infrastructure Summit at Consensus Hong Kong 2026

HONG KONG – During Consensus Hong Kong 2026, enterprise-grade blockchain infrastructure and fintech service provider Cregis, in collaboration with Stable, Jsquare, and FutureCloud, will co-host a premier closed-door summit: Institutional Payment & On-chain Financial Infrastructure Summit. The event is scheduled for the afternoon of February 9, 2026, at Conrad Hong Kong, with sponsorship support from DR, Interlace, and AWS.

As the initiator and core organizer, Cregis aims to create a high-quality industry platform, convening representatives from institutions such as Conflux, SlowMist, Hex Trust, Tevau, BlockOffice, and Cynopsis. The summit will facilitate in-depth discussions on critical topics including stablecoins, institutional payments, on-chain financial infrastructure, security, and compliance, collectively exploring the development path for the next phase of on-chain financial systems.

Targeting payment institutions, stablecoin infrastructure providers, digital asset custodians, security and compliance technology firms, blockchain infrastructure projects, and institutional platform builders, the summit focuses on a key question: As stablecoins and on-chain systems progressively integrate into the mainstream financial system, how should institutional payment and financial infrastructure be systematically constructed and operated at scale?

From Conceptual Consensus to Executable Construction

As stablecoins and on-chain payments accelerate their entry into real-world business scenarios, an increasing number of institutions are strategically developing related infrastructure. Industry focus is gradually shifting from conceptual "trend discussions" to the more practical matter of "implementation capabilities." For the growing number of participating institutions, the primary concerns are no longer about the validity of the concept, but rather about system reliability, security controllability, compliance sustainability, and the capacity for cross-regional, large-scale operations.

Against this backdrop, the summit will center its discussions on the following core areas: the practical adoption path of stablecoins and on-chain payments in institutional contexts; the system architecture and evolution of payment and financial infrastructure; compliance and risk management practices in cross-jurisdictional operations; building security systems, governance mechanisms, and long-term operational stability; and collaboration models between traditional Web2 financial systems and on-chain frameworks.

Through the sharing of diverse practical experiences, the summit aims to advance the industry from conceptual consensus to actionable development plans.

Executive Insights on Real-World Challenges

The summit agenda features multiple keynote speeches and two panel discussions, covering key aspects such as payment infrastructure development, security architecture design, and compliance system construction.

"Payments & Stablecoins as Financial Infrastructure" brings together Angela Tang (Jsquare CMO) as moderator with Brian Mehler (Stable CEO), Andy Liu (Tevau Co-founder), and YuanJie Zhang (Conflux Co-founder/COO). This session examines the evolution from experimental payment tools to mission-critical financial infrastructure, exploring what drives institutional adoption and the operational realities of scaling these systems.

The second panel, "Security & Compliance in On-chain Financial Systems," addresses the crucial issues of security and compliance in institutional deployments. Panelists include Blue Yang, CTO of Slowmist; Giorgia Pellizzari, CPO of Hex Trust; Christian Corrigan, CFO of BlockOffice; and Chionh Chye Kit, CEO and Co-founder of Cynopsis. The discussion will revolve around security architecture, governance models, compliance requirements, and how to build on-chain financial systems capable of long-term, stable operation.

Keynote speakers from Cregis, Interlace, FutureCloud, and DR will present case studies and strategic insights drawn from their frontline experience building and operating institutional blockchain infrastructure.

As stablecoins and on-chain payments move into institutional application scenarios, the industry is transitioning from questioning "if it will happen" to addressing "how to do it well." In this process, system capability, compliance capacity, and long-term development strength are becoming key criteria determining a project's value. By gathering core participants from across the industry chain, this summit seeks to establish an open, pragmatic, and high-caliber platform for dialogue. It aims to steer industry discussions back to fundamental issues like system construction, risk management, and practical implementation, jointly fostering the evolution of on-chain financial infrastructure towards a more mature, robust, and sustainable future.
