ChangeNOW Brings Its Voice to Consensus Miami 2026 Panel Lineup
ChangeNOW is making a significant impact at Consensus Miami 2026, the premier gathering for the crypto industry. The team participated in two panel discussions organized by NOWNodes, a blockchain node infrastructure under the NOW ecosystem, at the Miami Beach Convention Center. The panels focused on infrastructure resilience, tokenization, and real-world adoption challenges in the industry.
Pauline Shangett, the Chief Strategy Officer of ChangeNOW, represented the company at both events and also took on moderating duties for the first session as a Strategic Advisor to NOWNodes. This is just a part of Pauline’s schedule at Consensus this year, as she is set to appear in several other panels discussing topics like onchain privacy and identity, building on-chain systems people believe in, and the next commodity revolution.
ChangeNOW, founded in 2017, is a non-custodial cryptocurrency exchange that allows transactions between over 110 blockchains and 1,500 digital assets. With over eight million users, the platform has evolved into a larger ecosystem that includes NOW Wallet, NOWPayments, NOWTracker, and NOWNodes. The company’s systems have to process swaps across multiple chains, provide real-time data, and ensure security without holding user assets.
The first panel titled “Trust Under Pressure” focused on the challenges of tokenized systems at scale. The panelists discussed the real-world implications of data inconsistencies and the potential costs of major failures. The second panel, “Can RWA Deliver?” explored the barriers to mass adoption of tokenized real-world assets and the industry’s efforts to address them.
These panels organized by NOWNodes are not just relevant to the company but to the entire industry. ChangeNOW’s participation in these discussions reflects their commitment to industry-wide dialogue and innovation. The purpose of their presence at Consensus Miami is to contribute to shaping the future of the industry.
The panels are scheduled for May 6th at the Miami Beach Convention Center’s Meet Ups area. For those unable to attend, following ChangeNOW and NOWNodes on social media for updates and a comprehensive review of the event is recommended. Stay tuned for insights and discussions from the forefront of the crypto industry.
