HODL Unites Dubai and Riyadh for a Landmark Blockchain Roadshow Across the Middle East.
Two Cities. One Movement. Infinite Blocks to Build.Dubai, UAE, 24th July 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, HODL, the OG of Web3 and crypto summits, is back to break more ground - this time with a back-to-back Middle East roadshow in Dubai (30-31 Oct) and Riyadh (3-4 Nov) that promises seven days of pure alpha, deal-making, and decentralized disruption.
After setting the bar in early 2025 with its record-breaking Dubai edition, HODL is crossing borders to supercharge collabs between builders, backers, regulators, and institutions. Think policy meets protocol. TradFi meets DeFi. And investors meet the next unicorns of Web3.

Why These Cities? Why Now?
Dubai: Web3's Global Playground
1,400+ crypto & Web3 companies already plugged in
HQ of VARA - the world's first digital asset regulator
$1.5B+ poured into the space in 2024-25
30%+ crypto adoption among residents

Powered by Vision 2030, SDAIA, and major policy reforms
Enterprise DeFi pilots, tokenized real estate & smart governance POCs
Top universities building the next gen of crypto-native talent
Dubai is the polished powerhouse. Riyadh is the next frontier. Together, they're building the Web3 bridge the world's been waiting for.
From the Community:
"HODL was a turning point. Sharing my story on stage and being heard by investors was a milestone-both personally and professionally."
- Tim Popplewell, CEO, Scintilla
"It felt like the bull market IRL. The energy, the people - pure conviction everywhere."
- Luther Maday, Global Head of Payments, Algorand Foundation
"What stands out at HODL is the caliber. You're not pitching in a vacuum. You're with leaders who actually move the needle."
- R. Vivekanand, President - BFSI Products & Platforms, TCS
What's Dropping in the Dual-City Edition?
Closed-door policy talks with regional regulators (yes, real ones)
Founder-Investor matchmaking zones (ICO, IEO, STO, you name it)
Live showcases across DeFi, RWAs, ESG and more
Cross-border alignment: shared standards, capital flow, and brainpower
PR on blast with coverage from CNN, Khaleej Times, Entrepreneur ME, ZEX PR Wire, and more
TL;DR: This Ain't Just Another Summit
It's where capital meets code. Where L2 builders talk tokenomics with ministries. Where Web2 giants meet Web3 rebels. It's HODL - the longest-running summit in the game - rewriting the playbook yet again.
With 30+ editions in 20+ countries, HODL isn't a conference. It's a protocol for real-world impact.
