Following the success of the largest DeFAI and AI agent event DefaiCon in Dubai at Token2049, leading crypto marketing, PR, and events agency EAK Digital announces the next stop in its global event series: DefaiCon Istanbul, hosted by Hey Anon and WAGMI CEO Daniele Sesta.
DefaiCon Istanbul will take place on June 26, 2025, at the Hilton Istanbul Bomonti Hotel and Conference Center, as part of Istanbul Blockchain Week. The event will explore the convergence of DeFi and autonomous AI agents—the core pillars of the emerging agent economy—where smart agent networks and next-generation DeFi protocols are reshaping finance, trading, governance, and on-chain decision-making.
As programmable finance, autonomous capital deployment, and intelligent coordination redefine the landscape of Web3, DefaiCon Istanbul will serve as the ultimate stage for founders, developers, and investors building at the forefront of decentralized finance and AI.
Erhan Korhaliller, founder of Istanbul Blockchain Week and EAK Digital, commented on the event: “As we move beyond our debut in Dubai, this DefaiCon will explore the rise of the agent economy, the formation of autonomous agent collectives, and the increasingly important role of AI agents in shaping on-chain innovation. Turkey holds a significant place in global trading volume, and Istanbul is the ideal venue for these important dialogues, inspiring the next wave of builders, thinkers, and investors.”
DefaiCon Istanbul offers a front-row perspective on the future for DeFi developers, traders, AI researchers, Web3 founders, and investors. The event includes panel discussions with DeFAI leaders, keynote speeches from pioneers of the agent economy, live demonstrations, builder workshops, and exclusive networking with thinkers shaping decentralized intelligence.
At its debut in Dubai, DefaiCon attracted over 3,000 attendees, quickly becoming the preferred platform for groundbreaking announcements and product launches in the DeFAI space. Highlights of the event included talks from leading projects such as Virtuals Protocol, ElizaOS, Vader AI, and Cookie3. Major announcements included Moxie's autonomous trading agent Senpi and Oasis's trustless AI agent WT3, as well as innovative demonstrations like Brevis ZK co-processors and DappRadar's HiveMind, further solidifying DefaiCon's position as a breakthrough point for DeFi and AI agents.
This return reflects a surge of interest and investment in AI-driven finance and autonomous agents within the blockchain ecosystem.
DefaiCon Istanbul is open only to ticket holders of Istanbul Blockchain Week.
