The first Solana Summit Kazakhstan 2026 will take place in Almaty
On May 22, 2026, Almaty will host the Solana Summit Kazakhstan 2026 for the first time — a flagship Web3 conference in Central Asia and the Eurasian Economic Union space, dedicated to the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA). The main program will take place on May 22, featuring speeches from global ecosystem leaders and key representatives of the regional financial sector. The organizer is Superteam Kazakhstan — the official representation of the global Solana ecosystem in the region.
About Solana
Solana ranks among the top 5 global blockchains by market capitalization, activity, and transaction volume, combining record-breaking performance — over 518 billion transactions, minimal fees — less than $0.002, and high activity — more than 2.1 million unique addresses per day.
Global trust in Solana is confirmed by partnerships with leading institutions: Goldman Sachs, BlackRock, Citigroup, as well as participation in the x402 Foundation initiative under the auspices of the Linux Foundation, jointly with Google, Microsoft, AWS, Visa, Mastercard, and Stripe.
Solana in Central Asia
In the Central Asian region, Solana already serves as the technological foundation for landmark projects. In the regulatory sandbox of the National Bank of Kazakhstan, the first tenge-backed stablecoin was issued. The Evo KZTE token was issued by the cryptocurrency exchange Intebix with the participation of the Solana Foundation, Mastercard, and the Eurasian Bank.
Additionally, the Astana International Exchange, together with Intebix, the Solana Foundation, and liquidity aggregator Jupiter, signed a memorandum on creating a dual-listing mechanism. This innovative mechanism will allow companies to simultaneously conduct a traditional IPO on the AIX exchange and a tokenized listing on the Solana blockchain.
A memorandum was also signed with the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange (KASE), which involves the integration of digital assets into KASE trading operations. These initiatives demonstrate the integration of global liquidity and Solana technologies into the regulated financial infrastructure of Kazakhstan and Central Asia.
RWA Market
It is forecasted that by 2033, the volume of tokenized real-world assets (RWA) will reach $20 trillion, covering real estate, commodities, debt instruments, funds, and treasury obligations. Kazakhstan, with its strategic location and direct access to Solana infrastructure, offers a mature FinTech ecosystem, a clear regulatory environment, and a strong engineering base — ideal conditions for establishing itself as a key hub for the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA).
Solana Summit Kazakhstan 2026 will bring together regulators, institutional investors, RWA issuers, and developers from more than 30 countries, including Kazakhstan, the USA, Brazil, Turkey, the UAE, Russia, and European Union countries.
Participants include representatives of regional and global giants, including Mastercard, Visa, Air Asia, 3IQ, Etherfuse, and leading companies from the Solana ecosystem. Kazakhstan will be represented by major businesses, the financial sector, and regulators.
The event strengthens Kazakhstan's position as a bridge between traditional finance and the new generation of capital markets.
The program includes:
— panel discussions with market leaders and the government of Kazakhstan
— discussions on the tokenization of commodity and financial assets
— a technical track dedicated to tokenization standards, compliance architecture, and liquidity mechanisms.
As part of the summit, a startup pitch zone will take place with the participation of venture funds and a jury composed of partners.
