On April 23, 2026, Celebrate the VOTE WI gathered builders, thinkers, and community members at Transfer Pizzeria Cafe in Milwaukee for an evening dedicated to the vote in Wisconsin and the systems that shape how we participate in governance, both on-chain and in the real world.
Hosted by the Wisconsin Blockchain Business Council and sponsored by Stand With Crypto, the gathering brought together people working at the intersection of governance, web3, crypto, and blockchain.
What we explored
- Voting systems and their evolution
- Governance models across traditional and decentralized ecosystems
- The role of participation, transparency, and coordination in shaping the future
The night paired thoughtful discussion with community and networking across the web3, blockchain, and governance space, over Transfer pizza and beverages. Attendees were also pointed to voter resources, from checking their status at My Vote Wisconsin to getting to know the candidates at Wisconsin Decides.
Thanks to everyone who came out to be part of the conversation, and the future of participation.
