In late January, Miami will host an unusual convergence of market culture, technology, and retail investing power as WSB Live takes over the Miami Beach Convention Center from January 28 to 30.
Produced by the team behind WallStreetBets–adjacent media and long-running crypto conference brands, WSB Live is positioning itself as a new kind of financial event. Not another trade show, and not another influencer carnival, but a physical forum for the retail-driven market forces that have reshaped finance over the past decade.
Retail participation now moves prices, narratives, and even institutions. From meme stocks to on-chain markets, online communities have become structural actors rather than background noise. WSB Live is built around that reality, bringing traders, builders, founders, exchanges, and market makers into the same room for three days of tightly programmed sessions and live product moments.
The event format is deliberately nontraditional. Instead of long panels, the agenda emphasizes short, high-signal sessions, live launches, builder labs, and rapid-fire talks designed to reflect how markets actually operate today: fast, reactive, and culturally driven. Evening programming leans into Miami’s role as a global finance and crypto hub, with networking that extends beyond the main stage.
The speaker lineup spans trading culture, crypto infrastructure, traditional finance, and media, with participants from platforms such as eToro, Coinbase, Bloomberg, Bitget, SkyBridge Capital, and leading crypto funds and foundations. Organizers say additional speakers and formats will be announced closer to the event.
For partners like Hemi, WSB Live represents a chance to engage directly with the communities shaping modern markets, not as spectators, but as participants. As retail and institutional worlds continue to collide, events like this are becoming less about spectacle and more about understanding where influence actually lives.
WSB Live takes place January 28–30, 2026, in Miami Beach.
