What will Sovereignty Summit actually feel like? Two days at Coronet Peak, surrounded by Queenstown’s mountains, with space to think, talk and connect. You might start the morning over coffee with people you’ve only ever known online, then head into a session with speakers like Jeff Booth or Efrat Fenigson exploring some of the biggest questions around money, freedom, technology and the future. Between talks, there’ll be time to keep the conversation going. To meet builders, founders, parents, investors, health advocates and curious thinkers from around the world. To swap ideas over lunch. To challenge assumptions. To find the people you want to stay in touch with long after the Summit ends. The value won’t only come from what happens on stage. It’ll come from the conversations in between. The unexpected introductions. The questions you hadn’t thought to ask. And the feeling of being in a room with people who are thinking deeply about how to build a more sovereign future. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets @thebitcoinbasin #SovereigntySummit #Sovereignty #Queenstown #Community

We’re excited to welcome Bisher Khudeira to Sovereignty Summit 2027.

Who is Sovereignty Summit for? Not just Bitcoiners. It’s for builders creating new tools and systems. Parents thinking about the future their children will inherit. Entrepreneurs looking for better ways to build, trade and create value. Investors asking bigger questions about money, risk and long-term thinking. Farmers and land stewards focused on resilience, food and local systems. Technologists exploring privacy, open-source infrastructure and decentralisation. Health advocates interested in longevity, wellbeing and personal responsibility. And curious people who simply want to understand the world a little better. Sovereignty Summit brings these perspectives together because the biggest questions we face don’t sit neatly inside one category. Money connects to technology. Technology connects to privacy. Health connects to food. Family connects to community. And all of it connects to the choices we make about how we live. You don’t need to arrive with all the answers. Just bring your questions. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets @thebitcoinbasin #SovereigntySummit #Bitcoin #Freedom #Community #Innovation #Health #Sovereignty #Queenstown

Speaker Announcement: Nacho Pauls What happens when Bitcoin mining becomes more transparent, more distributed and more accessible to individual miners? We’re excited to welcome Nacho Pauls to Sovereignty Summit 2027. Nacho is the Chief Commercial Officer at OCEAN, where he focuses on commercial strategy, Bitcoin mining decentralisation and expanding the reach of DATUM - technology designed to give individual miners greater control and transparency. A Bitcoin early adopter, former athlete and lifelong learner, Nacho brings deep experience across corporate development, strategy, operations, digital assets, mining and energy. His work is centred on strengthening the resilience and security of the Bitcoin network by supporting a more decentralised mining ecosystem and helping miners operate with greater independence. At Sovereignty Summit, Nacho will bring a practical perspective on Bitcoin mining, decentralisation and why the way the network is built matters just as much as how it is used. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Connect with Nacho: X: @nachopauls Instagram: @nacho.pauls LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/nacho-pauls-… @thebitcoinbasin #SovereigntySummit #Bitcoin #BitcoinMining #Decentralisation #Mining #FreedomTech #SoundMoney #Queenstown

What does sovereignty actually look like in everyday life? It can be as simple as understanding where your money is held. Learning how the technology you use handles your data. Knowing where your food comes from. Taking a more active role in your health. Supporting local businesses. Building skills that make you less dependent on systems you don’t fully understand. None of these choices exist in isolation. The way we manage money affects our options. The technology we use affects our privacy. Our health affects our independence. Strong families and local communities make us more resilient. Sovereignty isn’t about doing everything yourself or rejecting the world around you. It’s about understanding the systems you rely on, asking better questions, and creating more choice in the areas of life that matter most. That’s the thinking behind Sovereignty Summit. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets @thebitcoinbasin

Speaker Announcement: Daniel Batten What if one of Bitcoin mining’s biggest criticisms could become part of the solution? We’re excited to welcome Daniel Batten to Sovereignty Summit 2027. Daniel is a founder-coach and technology investor who, through an unexpected turn, became a Bitcoin mining researcher known for his work on Bitcoin and energy. After co-founding a New Zealand bioinformatics company that exited in 2019, Daniel went on to launch CH4 Capital, which funds Bitcoin mining projects that turn landfill methane into usable power. His work sits at the intersection of energy, technology and environmental innovation, exploring how Bitcoin mining can be used in ways that capture waste, create value and rethink how energy systems operate. Outside Bitcoin, Daniel has taught Art of Living breathwork since 2007 and now lives with his wife and daughters in Costa Rica. As Daniel puts it, he’s interested in turning waste into power — from landfill gas to human potential. At Sovereignty Summit, Daniel will bring a fresh perspective to the conversation around Bitcoin, energy and sustainability, and what becomes possible when we look at old problems through a different lens. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Connect with Daniel: X: @DSBatten Facebook: @danielsbatten Instagram: @danielsbatten @thebitcoinbasin

Speaker Announcement: Azuraye Wycoff What if a local economy could work more like an ecosystem? We’re excited to welcome Azuraye Wycoff to Sovereignty Summit 2027. Azuraye is the founder and operator of Yellow Barn Farm in Boulder, Colorado, where she runs six interconnected businesses as one regenerative economy - spanning composting, local food distribution, events, landscaping and regenerative agriculture. Her work is built around a different way of thinking about infrastructure: money moves like water, businesses grow like a root system, and resources cycle back into the land they came from. Through Yellow Barn Farm, Azuraye is demonstrating what local resilience can look like in practice, creating systems where food, business, community and land support one another rather than operating in isolation. She also writes The Stalk Market Times, a weekly column exploring food, systems and the economics of staying put. At Sovereignty Summit, Azuraye will bring a practical perspective to the Food, Farming & Land pillar, exploring how regenerative thinking can strengthen local economies, communities and the places we call home. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Connect with Azuraye: LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/azuraye-wyco… Instagram: @azuraye72 Yellow Barn Farm: @yellowbarn.farm Website: yellowbarn.farm Nostr: npub1amzlyj9xgeqzvq5nez89aaejpvdj9pskpq8m5gu3sfqhcnylnlcqh7qeuw @thebitcoinbasin

Why Queenstown? Because some conversations need space. Space to think differently. Space to challenge assumptions. Space to step outside the noise and look at the bigger picture. Queenstown is one of those places. Surrounded by lakes, mountains and open country, it’s a destination that naturally pulls you out of routine. It’s remote enough to feel different, connected enough to bring people together, and bold enough to match the conversations we’re having at Sovereignty Summit. Sovereignty is about choice, resilience and the freedom to build life on your own terms. Queenstown reflects that spirit. It’s also one of the world’s great bucket-list destinations. Come for the Summit. Stay for the mountains, the trails, the food, the wineries, the adventure, the stillness and the kind of scenery that reminds you there’s a much bigger world beyond the screen. For two days in April, we’ll bring together people from around the world to talk about money, technology, health, privacy, family, community and the future. And we’ll do it in a place that makes you think a little bigger. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets @thebitcoinbasin @queenstownnz

Speaker Announcement: Michael O'Keefe It's a pleasure to welcome Queenstown local Michael to Sovereignty Summit 2027. Born and raised in Queenstown, Michael's journey into sovereignty didn't begin in a boardroom or on a trading floor. It began with a simple question: is this really the only way to live? After years of trading time for a wage, Michael discovered Bitcoin in his early thirties - and everything changed. Today, he lives the principles he believes in. Stacking sats. Prospecting for gold in the rivers of Central Otago. Building a future centred on self-custody, financial independence and the freedom to world-school his three children alongside his wife. Michael doesn't speak from theory. He shares the lessons of a life intentionally designed around sovereignty, responsibility and choosing a different path. As Michael puts it: "Freedom is a decision. Most people just never make it." Join us in Queenstown to hear his story. 📍 Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Follow @thebitcoinbasin for more Bitcoin events, education and community updates.

How do good ideas spread? Through books shared between friends. Podcasts listened to on long drives. Conversations that challenge what we thought we knew. People willing to ask better questions and share what they’ve learned. The Education & Connection pillar at Sovereignty Summit is about keeping ideas open, accessible and alive. We’ll explore how learning happens beyond traditional institutions, how communities pass on knowledge, and why free exchange matters in a world where information is abundant but meaningful connection can still be hard to find. Because education isn’t only about collecting information. It’s about developing the confidence to think critically, test ideas, learn from others and keep changing your mind when the evidence demands it. Sovereignty grows when people have access to knowledge, and when they have communities where that knowledge can be discussed, challenged and shared freely. That’s what we’re building in Queenstown. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Join @thebitcoinbasin and a global community of thinkers, builders and curious minds coming together to learn, connect and share ideas. #SovereigntySummit #Education #Community #Connection #IndependentThinking #Sovereignty #Queenstown

What are we building all of this for? For many of us, the answer is simple: our families, our children and the communities we want them to grow up in. The Family & Community pillar at Sovereignty Summit explores the relationships and local networks that give sovereignty meaning in everyday life. We’ll look at how strong families, connected communities and resilient local economies can help people become less isolated, more capable and better supported. Because independence doesn’t mean doing everything alone. It means having people you can rely on. Skills you can share. Local businesses you can support. Children who grow up surrounded by strong values, practical knowledge and a real sense of belonging. A sovereign future isn’t only built through technology or money. It’s built around people. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Join @thebitcoinbasin and a global community exploring how we build stronger families, communities and futures together.

Where does your food come from? Who grows it, how is it produced, and how resilient are the systems we rely on to feed ourselves? The Food, Farming & Land pillar at Sovereignty Summit explores our relationship with the land and the systems that sustain us. We’ll look at real food, regenerative agriculture, clean energy and responsible land stewardship, and hear from people working to build healthier, more resilient ways of producing what we need. Because sovereignty isn’t only about money or technology. It’s also about understanding the essentials we depend on every day, supporting stronger local systems and thinking more carefully about how we use the resources around us. From the soil beneath our feet to the energy that powers our communities, these conversations are about building resilience for the long term. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 🎟️ Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Join @thebitcoinbasin and a global community exploring what it means to live a more sovereign life.

Speaker Announcement: Roland Bewick What happens when AI agents can pay, transact and act autonomously using Bitcoin? We’re excited to welcome Roland Bewick to Sovereignty Summit 2027. Roland is a builder at Alby and the development lead for Alby Hub, Alby’s self-custodial, next-generation Lightning wallet. His work also spans developer SDKs and agent-first tools for the Bitcoin Lightning Network. A two-time BOLT FUN Lightning hackathon winner, Roland has worked on projects including Bitcoin Connect and Lightsats, and was the first in the world to create an OpenClaw that could autonomously spawn a child agent by paying for services with Bitcoin. His work sits right at the intersection of Bitcoin, Lightning, AI and sovereign computing, exploring what becomes possible when digital agents can interact with open monetary networks without relying on traditional payment rails. At Sovereignty Summit, Roland will bring a builder’s perspective to the Technology & Innovation pillar, exploring where Lightning, self-custody and agent-first technology are heading next. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Connect with Roland: X: @rolznz GitHub: github.com/rolznz Nostr: npub1zk6u7mxlflguqteghn8q7xtu47hyerruv6379c36l8lxzzr4x90q0gl6ef Alby: X: @getalby GitHub: github.com/getAlby Nostr: npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm @thebitcoinbasin

Your health might be the most personal form of sovereignty there is. Yet it's easy to become disconnected from it. We outsource decisions, treat symptoms in isolation and often wait until something goes wrong before paying attention to what our bodies are telling us. The Health & Wellness pillar at Sovereignty Summit is about taking a more active role in your own wellbeing. We'll explore functional approaches to health, nutrition, fitness, mental wellbeing and longevity, bringing together different perspectives on how we can better understand our bodies and make more informed choices about the way we live. It's not about finding one perfect approach to health. It's about asking better questions, understanding your options and recognising the role that everyday choices can play in how we feel, function and age. Because sovereignty over your money matters. Sovereignty over your data matters. But having the health and vitality to enjoy the life you're building matters too. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 🎟️ Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Join @thebitcoinbasin and a global community exploring what it means to live a more sovereign life.
