About Event

​Neo-Cypherpunk Summit unites movements, thinkers & activists powered by the joy of a new techno-socio-political act.

​1000 people, 100 thinkers, 1 day of human rights, open-source, decentralized tech, freedom entanglements and practical activism shaping polarization, monopoly on tech, coordination, & mutual care.

​Neo-Cypherpunk Act in 1, 2, 3

Step #1: Gather Allies

​We made the biggest global Cypherpunk Congress in Bangkok & Buenos Aires (2024, 2025). It gathered thousands of people from Tor, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Brave, Ethereum Foundation, Free Software Foundation, Zcash, IPFS, Amnesty International, OONI.

​Step #2: Be Practical

We continued with Cypherpunk Camp - 3 days of close collaboration between 100 free tech-leaders from Freedom of the Press Foundation to Bluesky [collab with Protocol Labs]

​Step #3: Ignite Change

Neo-Cypherpunk Summit 2026 in Berlin serves as a platform uniting global & local activists building different stack.

​It's time for kinship between hacktivists, whistleblowers, academics, designers, researchers, volunteers, human rights lawyers, tech founders, philosophers and beyond.

​Stunning location - Funkhaus

Funkhaus Berlin was built in the early 1950s as the DDR's broadcasting headquarters, designed by Franz Ehrlich, a Bauhaus-trained architect and communist who had been imprisoned in Buchenwald for his antifascist activity.

​What to expect

​Radical visionaries having a clear picture of a pluralist internet

​Passionate & diverse humans willing to collaborate & change status quo

​Ethereum Cypherpunk Congress #2 amazing crowd

​Culture defining Neo-cypherpunk narrative supporting tangible change

We encrypt not to hide, but to connect. Neo-Cypherpunk storytelling isn’t based on social media alarmism, but joy, collaboration, and conscious use of tech.

​Grassroots-first approach

​Value-driven curation recognizing that many tech events are an echo chamber of siloed communities. Pluralism & unity can lead to heal polarisation & tribalism towards collaboration.
