Africa’s largest blockchain festival
Africa Blockchain Festival brings the people building the continent’s digital economy into one room: founders, developers, investors, banks, mobile money operators and the regulators writing the rules. After a first edition in Kigali, it moves to Nairobi for 2026, and this year it carries our name.

Where to find us
Two days on the exhibition floor and several sessions on stage. Come and see the app working, ask us anything, and leave with an account.
On the main stage
A keynote, a fireside chat, a panel and a live demo of the app, opened and closed by our CEO. What Inkryptus is, why we built it for Africa, and how to check every claim yourself.
At our booth
At the main entrance, on days 1 and 2. We are the only booth past the doors. Our team helps you install the app, open an account and find your way around it.
In the workshop
A hands-on half hour for people new to crypto. Bring your phone: you leave having made your first operation, with us beside you.
Times are as the organisers confirmed them. If one moves, the official agenda has it first.

Our sessions
Six moments on the programme, five of them on the main stage. Times are Nairobi time (EAT).

Travelling to Nairobi
The organisers keep a full travel guide. The points below are the ones people ask us about.
Transport for the festival is being arranged
We are closing a partnership with a local operator for the rides between the airport, the hotels and the venue. When it is agreed, it will be here.
Entry to Kenya
Citizens of East African Community countries, Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda among them, need no eTA. Most other visitors apply for one online, for $30, 7 to 10 days before travelling.
Flights
Kenya Airways is the festival’s airline partner. The code ABF26KE takes 12% off flights within Africa for travel from 8 to 24 October.
Where to stay
The partner hotel is Park Inn by Radisson Westlands, with up to 30% off. Westlands is the district the venue is in.
Getting around
The airport is 30 to 60 minutes from the venue depending on traffic. Book rides through Uber or Bolt.
Why we’ll be there
Inkryptus is a crypto app for people who have never used one: one account, one wallet, no seed phrase to keep. We started in 2020, and most of the people using the app today are in East Africa. Sponsoring the continent’s blockchain festival is how we meet them in person.
