On October 27, 2026, the Solana Foundation named a fresh batch of speakers for Solana Breakpoint 2026, which takes place at Olympia London from 15 to 17 November. Among the new names are former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, former Chancellor Sajid Javid and Revolut Chair Martin Gilbert. Leaders from Zelle, DTCC, Mastercard, Backpack and Bitwise are also coming.
Token Supercycle is the theme for 2026. Organizers use the term to cover stablecoins, tokenized assets, payments and AI-driven activity shifting onchain, while institutions and governments figure out how to react and get involved.
The new names
With this round, figures from Westminster, the City and Washington will share a venue with the founders and institutions building on Solana. The list also includes leaders from Barclays, Y Combinator, Jupiter and Helius, plus other organizations.
Sessions are grouped into these tracks:
- Policy and the City
- Payments and capital
- Bringing every asset onchain
- Trading and culture
- Network, with leaders from Anza, Helius, Akash, BitRobot and the Solana Foundation
The earlier speaker announcements included Anatoly Yakovenko (Solana), Lily Liu (Solana Foundation), Balaji Srinivasan (Network State), Raoul Pal (Real Vision), Anthony Soohoo (MoneyGram), Annabel Spring (Allfunds), Zach Abrams (Bridge), Tad Smith (Candy Digital) and Peter Moore (Wisla Krakow). The foundation says it will name more speakers and publish the full agenda ahead of the conference.
The case for London
The UK is currently debating how to hold on to capital, listings and talent in London, and Breakpoint arrives in the middle of that. On stage, a former Prime Minister, a former Chancellor and the chairs of Revolut and Standard Life will sit alongside the investors, payment firms and builders who will choose where the next wave of financial infrastructure goes.
“The next generation of capital markets will run around the clock, settle in seconds and be open to anyone with an internet connection, and the decisions that determine where those markets are built are being made now,” said Lily Liu, President of the Solana Foundation. “Breakpoint brings the UK policymakers and City leaders shaping those decisions together with the founders already issuing tokenized equities, stablecoins and payment networks on Solana. London has a real opportunity to become the place where that future is built.”
According to the organizers, the program will present the Token Supercycle through what has already moved onchain and what is likely to follow. None of the announced speakers are from games or game studios.
