APAC DAO’s January 2026 Highlights
The year has only just begun, and APAC DAO is already fully in motion.
As we enter 2026, our community continues to expand across Asia-Pacific — not only online, but on the ground, through builder-first meetups, regional activations, and deep ecosystem collaboration. January and February mark an energetic start to the year, with APAC DAO showing up across multiple cities in Southeast Asia to connect builders, founders, partners, and institutions.
This early momentum reflects what the year ahead is about: deeper engagement, stronger local communities, and real collaboration across borders. 
Building Locally, Connecting Regionally
At APAC DAO, we believe that sustainable ecosystem growth starts locally. Face-to-face conversations, shared experiences, and trust built in real rooms are what enable regional and global collaboration to thrive.
Our January–February itinerary reflects this belief — a mix of casual community gatherings, focused builder meetups, and long-form co-creation environments designed to support builders at different stages.
ETHGlobal Happy Hour — ETHChiangmai
We kick off the year in Chiang Mai with the ETHGlobal Happy Hour, co-hosted with Web3 Meetup Thailand and The Binary Holdings.
This gathering brings together builders, founders, and the local crypto community for an evening of relaxed conversation, new connections, and shared insights around Web3. No pitches, no pressure — just people, ideas, and community energy.
Early Tết Builders Meetup — Vietnam (RWA Focus)
As Lunar New Year approaches, APAC DAO teams up with Blockchain Alliance Syndicate Ludium (BAS) to host the Early Tết Builders Meetup in Vietnam.
This meetup serves as a local activation of Buidl CTC, a multi-region builder program connecting ideathons, hackathons, and demo days, with selected teams advancing to a final showcase in Seoul.
The session also spotlights Creditcoin, an RWA-focused blockchain protocol supporting builders working on real-world financial infrastructure in Web3. The goal is to bring builders together before Tết — to connect, align, and start the year with real ecosystem momentum.
Pop-X Kuala Lumpur — A Week of Co-Creation
In early February, APAC DAO supports Pop-X Kuala Lumpur as a Community Partner.
Pop-X is a week-long Ethereum pop-up where builders co-work, co-live, and co-create together — without gatekeepers or hierarchy. It’s a space designed for deep collaboration, rapid learning, and shipping ideas alongside peers.
This format aligns strongly with APAC DAO’s builder-first philosophy: enabling environments where builders can focus, experiment, and grow together.
Logos Circle – Bangkok Chapter
Rounding out the itinerary is the launch of the first Logos Circle Bangkok chapter, supported by APAC DAO.
Logos Circle is designed as a small, high-signal gathering for builders and thinkers to explore the intersection of technology and society. With an intentionally intimate format, the Bangkok chapter creates space for deeper conversations around ideas, long-term thinking, and the broader implications of emerging technologies.
A Strong Start to the Year Ahead
It’s only the start of the year — and already, the APAC DAO calendar is full.
This packed January–February itinerary reflects the direction we’re heading in 2026:
- More on-the-ground engagement
- Stronger local builder communities
- Deeper cross-SEA collaboration
- A continued focus on real impact over noise
To our builders, founders, partners, and community members across Asia-Pacific — this is our year.
We look forward to seeing you on the ground, in conversations, and in collaboration throughout the months ahead.
Let’s build.
