Bitcoin Conference
Case Study
See how we help large-scale festivals and international events streamline operations, boost attendance, and deliver seamless guest experiences.
The Bitcoin Conference
The Bitcoin Conference is the world’s largest Bitcoin-only event series, hosting 35,000+ attendees at its flagship U.S. event and 15,000+ at each of its international shows. With four major conferences across three continents, the team needed a ticketing platform that could keep up with scale, innovation, and speed.
After using several other popular ticketing systems, the team made the switch to TicketSocket to gain control over their system architecture, user experience, and attendee data. The results included a 50%+ increase in flagship event attendance, a 25%+ lift in conversion rate, and a streamlined operation that now moves as fast as Bitcoin itself.
Challenge
Lack of Flexibility for Complex Ticketing Logic
Managing a multi-day, multi-tiered, global event series with legacy platforms quickly became limiting. The Bitcoin Conference team had unique ticketing requirements-such as upgrade paths, transfers, affiliate tracking, and batch distribution-that couldn’t be easily managed within their previous systems. These constraints held back innovation and created ongoing inefficiencies.
Our Solution
Custom-Built Enhancements
TicketSocket provided a modular, highly customizable system tailored to the event’s structure. Working directly with TicketSocket’s dev team, the client developed new logic, workflows, and enhanvements in real time, creating a ticketing engine as dynamic as their events.
Collaborative Dev Partnership
Through collaborative sprints, the team introduced ongoing product improvements-from refined upgrade paths to better batch distribution for exhibitors- all within a white-labeled framework.
Challenge
Slow Launch Timelines and Limited Scalability
Previous systems created friction around launching events and replicating processes across locations. With four global events per year, the Bitcoin Conference team needed a platform that could launch fast, adapt faster, and scale globally.
Our Solution
Fast Implementation
TicketSocket helped launch ticketing for their first event in less than a week. Quick steps and ease of use allowed the team to pivot quickly and manage all four events without being held back by tech.
White-Labeled Platform
The flexible, branded ticketing experience meant users remained in a fully branded environment-from purchase to check-in-while the team retained full control over layout, features, and data.
Challenge
Limited Reporting and Disconnected Experience
The team lacked detailed, real-time insights across sales, affiliates, and ticket management. Additionally, their previous systems weren’t integrated with the broader event experience, including onsite registration, app access, and upgrade flows, leading to frustration for both organizers and attendees.
Our Solution
Real-Time Reporting & Analytics
TicketSocket’s reporting dashboard became a daily tool for the team, providing full visibility into performance metrics, affiliate sales, and opportunities to optimize.
Ecosystem Integrations
TicketSocket seamlessly integrated with the conference’s registration venfor and mobile app partner, enabling bradge printing, faster check-in, and a more unified experience for attendees.
Attendee Support Enhancements
With the help of TicketSocket’s dev team, the conference introduced updates to improve ticket upgrades, scanning, and transfer processes, minimizing customer support tickets and improving user satisfaction.
Results That Sparked Growth for the Bitcoin Conference
50% Increase in Attendance

25% Boost in Conversion Rates
Checkout optimizations and improved upgrade flows resulted in a 25%+ increase in conversion rates compared to the previous platform.
