Mariblock announces OnChain Conference — with Busha as founding partner

Lagos, Nigeria — June 19, 2025 — Mariblock, the research and media company advancing clarity in Africa’s blockchain space, is proud to announce the launch of the OnChain Conference, a new flagship convening designed to bring Africa’s blockchain future into focus. 

The inaugural edition will take place at the Eko Convention Center, Lagos, on September 10 – 11, 2025, and is being launched in founding partnership with Busha, one of Nigeria’s two regulated crypto exchanges and one of Africa’s most trusted crypto platforms.

Both Busha and Mariblock share a commitment to making blockchain adoption in Africa practical, credible and cross-sector.

“OnChain is the activation platform the African ecosystem has been missing,” said  Oluwaseun Adeyanju, Founder of Mariblock. “We’re bringing together the people who matter, not just insiders, but policymakers, fintechs, private and public-sector actors, and serious builders, to shape what’s next for Africa’s onchain future.”

At a time when blockchain is entering mainstream conversations in global finance and policy circles, OnChain offers an African cross-sector meeting ground for:

• Builders and developers
• Regulators and policymakers
• Institutional investors and enterprise leaders
• Development actors and digital infrastructure pioneers

OnChain 2025 will explore core themes, including stablecoins, payments, tokenized real-world assets, regulatory clarity, the business case for blockchain and talent pipelines.
