A strategic content partnership connecting Galaxy’s institutional platform to the builders, miners, and operators driving Bitcoin forward.
STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP PROPOSAL — MARCH 2026
Galaxy Research moves markets. GalaxyOne opens retail. Helios powers the future. But the cultural venue—where clients, builders, and press converge in person—is unclaimed. Until now.
Retail launches need physical touchpoints. Every major fintech brand has one—Galaxy doesn’t yet. PubKey is the launchpad: a live venue where new products meet real users.
Launch venue1.6 GW of power. The largest Bitcoin mining and AI infrastructure portfolio in the world. The story needs to be told where energy, compute, and policy minds overlap.
1.6 GWAlex Thorn’s research podcast is best-in-class. Now imagine it live—in front of 80 people at PubKey, streamed to thousands, clipped into 20+ assets.
Live + digitalPubKey has been building NYC’s Bitcoin community since late 2022. Three years of operations. Two cities. The machine is running.
PubKey’s engagement rate is 3.2× the industry benchmark—every post reaches further and hits harder.
"Institutionalizing the digital asset ecosystem"
"Welcome home"
Monthly events alternating between New York and Washington DC. Each event maps to one of four content pillars.
Four content pillars cover Galaxy’s full platform. Each pillar gets three events across the year—deep enough to build audience, broad enough to cover the portfolio.
Helios, Bitcoin mining economics, energy infrastructure, grid innovation, the intersection of proof-of-work and real-world power systems.
3 EventsData centers, GPU compute, AI inference, the convergence of Bitcoin mining infrastructure and AI workloads. Galaxy’s Helios story.
3 EventsStrategic Bitcoin Reserve, regulatory frameworks, institutional adoption, sovereign wealth strategies. DC-centric, policy-forward.
3 EventsGalaxyOne launches, Galaxy Research deep dives, portfolio showcases, Galaxy Brains live recordings. The full platform on stage.
3 EventsFive distinct formats keep the series dynamic. Every event is engineered for both live energy and post-production value.
This isn’t Downtown Sessions. Different tone (technical + high-energy), different topics (mining, AI, Galaxy ecosystem), different formats (live podcast, variety show, closed-door dinners), and a single title sponsor—Galaxy exclusive.
Every event is a production. Multi-camera filming, professional editing, and a distribution pipeline that turns 90 minutes into 30 days of content.
20+ — short-form social clips (branded, edited)
2–3 — long-form content pieces
1 — full-length event recording
1 — live stream to PubKey channels
1 — professional photo package
250+ total distributable assets
12 full-length recordings
24–36 long-form content pieces
Evergreen library. Galaxy owns all content rights. Assets compound—the library grows every month.
12 events × 20+ clips = 250+ distributable assets. Full recordings. Podcast cuts. Newsletter content. Social shorts. Photos. Galaxy gets an entire content library—produced, edited, and distributed through PubKey’s 2.9M+ impression channel.
Every Signal Series event starts intimate and scales exponentially through PubKey’s distribution engine.
Conference sponsorships stop when the event ends. Signal Series content distributes for months. Every clip, every recording, every photo carries Galaxy’s brand into feeds, timelines, and playlists long after the room clears.
12 Events • 12 Months • 2 Cities • 250+ Assets
True conference presence costs $250K–$500K for a logo, a booth, and a speaking slot—gone the day it ends. The Signal Series produces 250+ branded assets that compound for months.
The core program stands alone. These optional add-ons let Galaxy extend the partnership into private client cultivation, team experiences, and storytelling.
Galaxy’s private table at the center of Bitcoin culture. 4 dinners per year, Galaxy curates the invite list. Signal Series sponsors receive 75% off—cost-only pricing.
A private off-site for Galaxy leadership and top clients, hosted and produced by PubKey.
A short documentary capturing The Signal Series across 12 months—the events, the people, the impact.
We built this proposal around Galaxy’s actual 2026 priorities, competitive position, and marketing needs. Here’s what we see.
Retail crypto platforms live and die on brand trust. The Signal Series gives GalaxyOne a physical home—a place where new users can see the team, hear the thesis, and ask questions in person. No other crypto platform has this.
1.6 GW of mining and data center capacity is the most compelling story in Bitcoin infrastructure. But it’s technical and hard to communicate. The Energy & Mining pillar turns complex infrastructure into accessible, shareable content.
Alex Thorn’s podcast is already best-in-class. Live recordings at PubKey add a visual dimension, create shareable clips, and build audience crossover between Galaxy Research and the broader builder community.
Coinbase has Stand With Crypto. Grayscale has sponsorship deals. Bitwise has ETF marketing. None of them have a cultural venue partnership. Galaxy can own this category before anyone else moves.
Crypto bull market. GalaxyOne launching. Helios scaling. Bitcoin policy momentum in DC. PubKey DC just opened. The timing for a year-long, two-city content partnership has never been better.
Three steps from here to Event One.
Align — Confirm strategic objectives, content pillars, and success metrics
Design — Lock speakers, calendar, and production plan for all 12 events
Launch — Execute Event 1 and start building the content library
