Solana Breakpoint 2026 adds Boris Johnson and Sajid Javid to speaker lineup

The Solana Foundation has announced the second wave of speakers for its flagship Breakpoint 2026 conference, scheduled for November 15–17 at Olympia London. The lineup includes former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and former Chancellor of the Exchequer Sajid Javid, signaling a strategic shift toward engaging policymakers and mainstream financial leaders.

Other high-profile speakers include Revolut Chair Martin Gilbert, Standard Life Chair Sir Nicholas Lyons, and Patrick Witt, a former top digital asset policy official at the White House. The event will also feature executives from Mastercard, Barclays, Zelle, and Bullish, as well as Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko.

The conference theme, “Token Supercycle,” focuses on the migration of stablecoins and tokenized assets onto the blockchain. By hosting the event in London and inviting former government officials, the conference aligns with the UK's efforts to establish a competitive regulatory framework for digital assets.
