Digital asset infrastructure provider Cregis will host the Institutional Onchain Finance Summit 2026 in Singapore on 6 October, during TOKEN2049 Week. The summit is co-hosted by FOMO Pay, a global payment solutions provider; Stable, a stablecoin payments infrastructure company; and Width, an AI-native compliance platform. According to reports from the summit organizers, the event will focus on how stablecoins are moving beyond crypto trading into payments, settlement and cross-border finance, with institutions now turning to questions about managing onchain funds and integrating digital assets into existing operations. As one of the co-organizers of the summit, Cregis has long been focused on the infrastructure and operational challenges enterprises face when entering on-chain finance, from wallet and cash flow management to asset governance and security controls, as digital assets gradually become integral to enterprise and financial institution operations. The summit is sponsored by FUTURECLOUD, AWS, and Avenia, bringing together industry professionals from financial services, payments, stablecoins, digital asset infrastructure, and security to discuss institutional applications of stablecoins and onchain security.
The summit's opening discussion, 'What Stablecoins Mean for Banks, Businesses and the Wider Economy', will feature perspectives from across the payments and financial ecosystem. The panel will include FOMO Pay Co-Founder Zack Yang, MetaComp Co-President and COO Eddie Hui, Tether Regional Expansion Lead Andres Kim, and Avenia Founder and COO Leandro Noel. The session will be moderated by Chiara Munaretto of Stablecoin Insider. As reported by the organizers, the discussion will examine how stablecoins are being used across payments, financial services and treasury, as well as what broader adoption could mean for banks and businesses. The expanding use of stablecoins is transforming how funds flow between different financial networks, from cross-border payments to corporate treasury management, with institutions no longer just managing asset issuance and transfers, but also needing to coordinate funds among different parties, manage permissions, execute transactions, and control daily operations. As these use cases expand, the infrastructure supporting them must handle increasingly complex fund flows, requiring institutions to look beyond asset issuance and transfers to areas such as counterparty coordination, access controls, transaction execution and day-to-day operations.
The summit's second panel, 'The New Security Playbook: How Attacks & Defences Are Evolving Across Digital Assets', will explore the changing threat landscape as digital assets become part of larger business workflows. The panel will feature 1exchange Non-Executive Director Michael Chen, CertiK CBO Jason Jiang, HackenProof CEO Dmytro Matviiv, and ZAN Head of Strategic Partnerships Alexandra Wang. According to the organizers, as institutions look beyond asset issuance and transfers to areas such as counterparty coordination and transaction execution, the security challenge expands across signing systems, access controls, vendor management, and human operations, not just wallets or smart contracts. In the past, digital asset security focused primarily on smart contracts, wallets, and private key protection, but as institutions increasingly rely on third-party infrastructure and integrate on-chain operations into their daily business processes, risks may now arise in areas such as signing systems, access controls, vendor management, and human operations, with advancements in automation tools and AI transforming how attackers discover and exploit vulnerabilities. For institutions advancing their digital asset operations, security is no longer just an issue for the technology team to resolve—it is a long-term capability that permeates infrastructure, access controls, and daily operational processes.
The programme will include keynote presentations from Cregis COO Jason Ma, Width CEO and Co-Founder Chye Kit Chionh, Stable CEO Brian Mehler, and Injective CEO & Co-founder Eric Chen. As reported by the organizers, for Cregis, the summit reflects a broader market shift as businesses bring digital assets into payments, treasury and other financial workflows, requiring infrastructure support beyond blockchain connectivity. The company serves more than 4,000 businesses across over 50 countries and operates across Asia, the Middle East and Latin America.

The summit is sponsored by FUTURECLOUD, AWS, and Avenia, bringing together industry professionals from financial services, payments, stablecoins, digital asset infrastructure, and security to discuss institutional applications of stablecoins and onchain security. During TOKEN2049 Week, a pivotal moment for the global digital assets industry, practitioners from financial institutions, payment platforms, stablecoin issuers, and infrastructure and security sectors will gather in Singapore to share insights from diverse markets and business scenarios, further exploring how the financial system, corporate operations, and infrastructure are evolving as on-chain finance moves from early exploration toward real-world adoption.
