KINGSTOWN, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Dec. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On December 18, 2025, Changelly debuts the New Year Crypto StandUp, created with the Web3 industry leaders at HACKEN, MyTonWallet, ONTO Wallet, SecuX, Liberion, and Simple Wallet. The event offers an honest, entertaining wrap-up of 2025, where Web3 founders and core builders speak openly about the year’s pumps and dumps, breakthrough moments, bugs, fails, high-pressure decisions, viral wins, and the hard-earned lessons that will determine their strategies for 2026.
A Crypto StandUp That Trades Formality for Fun
As the year wraps up, everyone is weary by formal reports and endless slide decks. That work is essential, but it rarely captures the full story. Changelly’s StandUp complements these formal reviews by offering a lighter, more conversational setting where builders can speak openly about the moments that defined 2025.
Inside the Stories Web3 Leaders Will Share
Attendees of the Crypto StandUp should expect a candid, behind-the-scenes mix of insights and real stories from 2025—the kind of perspectives that rarely make it into formal reports. Speakers will cover:
- Product pivots—and what actually drove them
- Market pressure that led to tough decisions
- Bugs, incidents, and lessons learned the hard way
- Moments that lit up (or shook) the crypto community
- Strategic takeaways shaping 2026—and more
This Year’s Lineup: A Cross-Section of Web3 Teams
The StandUp brings together teams from leading Web3 projects for a candid debrief of what many consider the industry’s most defining year since 2021. The lineup includes:
- Igor Bershadsky, CGO, HACKEN
- Irina Arons, CMO, MyTonWallet
- John Khandjian, CGO, Changelly
- Timur El-Gohary, CEO & Founder, Liberion
- Alex Emelian, CEO & Co-Founder, Simple Wallet (Simple.App)
- Wendy Chen, Head of PR, SecuX
- Geoff Richards, Head of Community, ONTO Wallet (Ontology)
Together, these teams represent a cross-section of the Web3 ecosystem, offering perspectives shaped by very different challenges, milestones, and user bases throughout 2025.
“Honest reflection moves the industry forward, no secret there. StandUp is one of the places that make room for it. MyTonWallet will share what mattered to users, what was delivered, and how the team addressed it when something fell short. This year’s work was intense: stronger safeguards, cleaner design, faster actions — all in all, more than a hundred new features. The aim now is to put the lessons on stage and learn from the best as they share their takeaways.” — Irina Arons, CMO at MyTonWallet
By bringing these perspectives into a single program, the StandUp provides insight into how different segments of the industry reacted to infrastructure demands, shifting markets, and evolving user expectations.
“No single company sees the whole picture, but together we do. Bringing global partners like MyTonWallet, HACKEN, ONTO, and others into one conversation gives us a shared view of what drove growth in 2025. That visibility is critical for making smarter decisions as an industry.” — John Khandjian, Chief Growth Officer at Changelly
