Crypto Twitter may sometimes seem like a raging brawl, but come Feb. 20, there will be some actual live combat between crypto influencers at Consensus Hong Kong 2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The conference will play host that evening to the eighth edition of Crypto Fight Night (CFN), an industry sporting and networking event that\u2019s become hugely popular since holding its first event in 2021. At the most recent CFN held in Dubai in December, popular crypto YouTuber Bitboy<\/a> squared off against memecoin trader and influencer Ansem<\/a> in a dramatic fight that went to the last round and ended in a draw. The bout drew a record one million live streams.<\/p>\n

Rahul Suri, one of CFN\u2019s co-founders, said the organizers were initially looking for new ways to connect crypto enthusiasts in person as the world was emerging from the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Exhibition boxing seemed like a natural fit, given the individualistic and competitive ethos of both arenas, Suri said.<\/p>\n

\u201cCrypto is a very player-versus-player environment, and combined with the risk-taking attitude of the general crypto participant, boxing has become a very highly-desired sport,\u201d said Suri, who also runs Ghaf Capital, a private investment firm based in Dubai. \u201cThe fights at Crypto Fight Night are more than just entertainment \u2014 they\u2019re a gateway to the crypto world.\u201d<\/p>\n

What to expect in Hong Kong<\/h2>\n

At Consensus Hong Kong, roughly 500 people, all of whom have signed up for VIP tickets, are expected to attend the roughly three-hour event. It will be held at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, which is attached to the conference\u2019s main venue, the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. And like all CFN events, the bouts will be live streamed on CFN\u2019s X<\/a> and YouTube<\/a> accounts.<\/p>\n

The main event will be a fight between crypto influencers Bitlord<\/a>, who has more than 400,000 followers on X, and Korean Jew<\/a>, a crypto market analyst with close to 150,000 X followers. The winner of that bout will be awarded the coveted CFN Crypto Belt.<\/p>\n

Another highly-anticipated fight will be a contest between YouTube giants My Mate Nate<\/a>, a content creator with almost 15 million subscribers on YouTube who\u2019s known as the Mr. Beast of Thailand, and charismatic CFN veteran DawoodSAVAGE<\/a>. There will also be several bouts between boxers with semi-professional experience.<\/p>\n

And awards for \u201cFight of the Night,\u201d as well as \u201cBONK of the Night\u201d for the best punch landed (and a nod to the popular memecoin) will be announced on social media after the event.<\/p>\n

Between the high-level networking and adrenaline-fueled entertainment, CFN Hong Kong promises to be a knockout event.<\/p>\n
