Assets on Blockchain (AOB) by RealAssets
Where Wall Street Meets the Future of Finance
The third edition of the Assets on Blockchain (AOB) Conference returns to the Harvard Club of New York City on October 29, 2026, bringing together leading voices from traditional finance, digital assets, blockchain, artificial intelligence, and regulatory policy.
As financial markets undergo one of their most significant transformations in decades, tokenization is moving beyond experimentation and into institutional adoption.
From Wall Street institutions integrating blockchain infrastructure to the emergence of AI-powered financial markets, AOB 2026 will explore the technologies, regulations, and investment opportunities redefining how capital is created, managed, and exchanged.
Building on previous editions featuring representatives from BlackRock, Coinbase, Franklin Templeton, Deloitte, McKinsey & Company, Circle, Chainlink Labs, and Galaxy, this year's conference will bring together industry leaders shaping the next generation of global financial infrastructure.
Join us in New York City for high-level discussions, institutional insights, and meaningful networking at the intersection of traditional finance and emerging technology.
