The CfC St. Moritz digital assets conference has allocated a quarter of its treasury into Bitcoin, partnering with Sygnum Bank to manage the reserve as part of its long-term financial strategy. The move reflects the event’s adoption of Bitcoin as a core component of its treasury holdings. Organisers said the decision was intended to reinforce the conference’s independence and ensure its financial sustainability.
Bitcoin Allocation and Partnership
Under the plan, 25% of the conference’s treasury assets will be held in Bitcoin. Zurich-based Sygnum Bank, a regulated digital asset banking group, was chosen to oversee the reserve. The partnership builds on a long-standing relationship between the bank and the conference, which has collaborated since the first CfC St. Moritz in 2018.
CfC St. Moritz Chief Executive Officer Nicolo Stoehr said the move was consistent with the event’s guiding principles of decentralisation and resilience. He described the reserve as a safeguard for the conference’s future while maintaining its role in the broader digital asset sector.
Sygnum’s Co-Founder and Group CEO Mathias Imbach said the partnership underscores Bitcoin’s recognition as a long-term store of value. He noted that the bank has supported CfC St. Moritz since its early years, citing shared priorities around regulation and infrastructure.
Background and Upcoming Event
Since its launch in 2018, CfC St. Moritz has hosted annual gatherings in Switzerland’s Engadin valley, attracting participants from finance, crypto, and technology. Organisers say the conference has withstood volatile market cycles and global disruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic while maintaining a consistent role as a forum for industry leaders.
The 2026 edition is scheduled for Jan. 14–16 at the Suvretta House resort in St. Moritz. Participation is limited to about 250 attendees, with applications required in advance. By establishing a Bitcoin reserve, the conference joins a growing list of organisations adopting cryptocurrency within treasury management strategies, reflecting Bitcoin’s continued role in institutional and corporate planning.
