About This Event

Fresh from BGIN Block 14 in Tokyo (1–2 March), this Layer 2 Meetup brings the latest insights from the global blockchain governance community directly to Sydney — just as Policy Week kicks off across the city.

BGIN (Blockchain Governance Initiative Network) creates an open, global, and neutral platform for multi-stakeholder dialogue across regulators, technologists, industry, academia, and civil society. Layer 2 Meetups extend this mission by connecting BGIN's deep standards work with local communities around the world.

This session shares the outcomes of Block 14's working groups, introduces the BGIN AI Agent Hack knowledge framework, and presents the Promise and Trust Graph system — a practical architecture for building verifiable trust relationships across decentralised networks.

Join us to engage with the frontiers of proof of personhood, post-quantum cryptography migration, and blockchain forensics terminology — three of the most pressing challenges at the intersection of technology, governance, and regulation.

Who Should Attend

- Regulators and policymakers working on digital asset frameworks

- Identity and privacy technologists

- Blockchain developers and infrastructure builders

- Compliance, legal, and forensics professionals

- Academics and researchers in governance, cryptography, and AI

- Anyone interested in multi-stakeholder blockchain governance
