August 28, 2025

At Stakely, we’re making history once again as a Silver Sponsor of Merge Madrid 2025, reaffirming our commitment to the growth of the Web3 ecosystem. After participating in Merge Madrid 2024 and Merge Buenos Aires 2025, we’re returning to the Spanish capital to be part of one of the most influential summits on institutional blockchain and DeFi in Europe.

From October 7 to 9, at the iconic Palacio de Cibeles, we’ll join leaders from companies, central banks, regulators, and governments at a key event focused on the future of decentralized finance, crypto regulation, and technological innovation.

Our involvement goes beyond sponsorship. In this edition, we’ll share how non-custodial staking is transforming access to decentralized finance, offering a secure, profitable, and transparent alternative for millions of users and businesses.

During our talks, we’ll explain how financial institutions, governments, and traditional players can integrate into the blockchain ecosystem without compromising security or asset sovereignty.

📌 Unmissable talks: October 9 at the Business Stage

11:50 - 12:20 | The Next Chapter of DeFi: What 2026 Will Bring

Our CEO, Jose Antonio Hernández, will join Jesús Pérez Sánchez, Advisor at DragonStake, and Anthony Chávez, Community Manager LATAM at Uniswap Labs, to discuss the innovations, risks, and opportunities that will shape the future of the DeFi ecosystem in 2026. A must-attend conversation to understand where the sector is heading and how to prepare for what’s coming.

12:20 - 12:40 | Beyond the Hype: Real Income on Blockchain

Our Co-founder & Head of Node Operations, Paco Ducha, will explore how staking, restaking, liquid staking, and other blockchain-based financial products are transforming the current paradigm of passive income in the economy. The talk will analyze where these yields actually come from, breaking down their mechanisms and explaining how they are generated through the operation of a blockchain. The goal is to provide a clear and well-founded overview that helps distinguish between hype-driven narratives and the real economic fundamentals supporting this new income model.

A key event for the Spanish-speaking Web3 community

Merge Madrid has established itself as the go-to event for the Web3, DeFi, and institutional blockchain ecosystem in the Spanish-speaking world, bringing together over 200 international speakers, including renowned figures like Coty de Monteverde (Santander), José Luis Núñez Díaz (Telefónica Tech), Kean Gilbert (Lido Finance), Damu Winston (Amazon), Jaime de Mora (Microsoft EMEA), and Francisco Maroto (BBVA).

This edition will feature three main tracks: a technical track focused on Ethereum scalability, ZK Rollups, privacy, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing; a business track with use cases in sectors such as retail, fashion, gaming, finance, healthcare, and art; and a legal track covering MiCA regulation, AML compliance, intellectual property, taxation, and tokenization.

A comprehensive view of the present and future of the Web3 ecosystem from an institutional, regulatory, and technological perspective. Merge Madrid is the ideal place for networking, sharing experiences, and forming new strategic alliances.
