ChangeNOW is hosting a private side event during TOKEN2049 Singapore with no panels, presentations, or packed conference agenda. Instead, the Retrofuture Soiree by ChangeNOW: Singapore Edition will bring a limited group of crypto industry guests together for an evening of drinks, food, music, and conversation.
The event will take place on Wednesday, October 7, at 8:00 p.m., after the first day of TOKEN2049. ChangeNOW CSO Pauline Shangett and Director of Strategic Partnerships Martin Masser will host the evening.
The venue is a Singapore cocktail bar inspired by 1960s culture and design. Organizers will share its name and exact location with approved guests ahead of the event.
Retrofuturism also carries through the event itself. The space will feature references to experimental architecture, including a capsule-inspired photo installation created for the night.
Each guest will also receive a limited-edition takeaway created around one question: if crypto had existed six decades ago, how would you have kept a seed phrase safe until today? ChangeNOW made its own answer, and guests will take it home at the end of the night.
A Different Kind of TOKEN2049 Gathering
The Soiree is part of ChangeNOW’s presence at TOKEN2049 Singapore. The company will also take part in the conference programme, where it will discuss its crypto super app direction and the idea of bringing more of what users do with crypto into a single product.
The private gathering offers a different setting from the main conference floor. Instead of formal sessions, guests can meet in a more relaxed environment. The format places the focus on conversation and informal connections.
The event also reflects the broader culture surrounding the crypto industry. TOKEN2049 brings together companies, builders, investors, and other industry participants. Side events often create opportunities for guests to continue discussions beyond the main programme.
ChangeNOW’s Retrofuture Soiree adds a creative theme to that setting. Its 1960s-inspired venue connects past design ideas with a technology-focused industry. The concept also gives the evening a distinct identity without relying on a traditional conference format.
The seed phrase takeaway adds another layer to the theme. Seed phrases remain an important part of crypto ownership and wallet security. The event uses the idea as a creative prompt linked to its retrofuturist setting.
The capsule-inspired installation will further shape the atmosphere. It gives guests a visual element connected to experimental architecture and future-focused design. Together, these details are intended to make the evening feel separate from a standard networking event.
Registration for the Retrofuture Soiree is available through Luma and is subject to approval. Approved guests will receive further information about the venue before the event.
With the first day of TOKEN2049 Singapore serving as its backdrop, the gathering will bring together a limited group of industry guests. The evening combines hospitality, design, music, and crypto culture in a private setting.
