BORN.LIVE Launches in Singapore During TOKEN2049 Week, Bringing Its Human Connection Network Across Events With BTSE

Cryptopolitan joins as Media Partner as BORN.LIVE prepares to launch its permanent human number and NFC connection network in Singapore.

SINGAPORE — October 2026 — BORN.LIVE, a new platform building a persistent human connection layer for the internet, will officially launch in Singapore during TOKEN2049 week with a simple idea:

8 BILLION HUMANS. ONE NUMBER EACH.

Every person joining BORN.LIVE can receive a unique, permanent, sequential BORN number.

But the number is only the beginning.

BORN.LIVE is designed to connect the people, places and communities someone encounters across the physical and digital worlds — beginning with something as simple as meeting another person and tapping an NFC device.

Tap. Connect. Keep moving.

BORN.LIVE Launches at the TOKEN2049 Singapore Opening Mixer

The public launch begins with the BORN.LIVE Singapore — Opening Mixer on Sunday, 4 October 2026, from 3:00 PM–6:00 PM at Barouv Rooftop Bar, Singapore.

The relaxed rooftop mixer will bring together founders, builders, investors, creators and Web3 communities arriving in Singapore ahead of TOKEN2049.

No long panels. No packed agenda.

Just drinks, conversations, a few short introductions from the teams bringing everyone together — and the first opportunity to experience BORN.LIVE.

Guests will be able to claim their BORN number and activate some of the first BORN.LIVE NFC wristbands and connection devices, allowing the network to begin forming in the room.

Meet Sunday. Know people all week.

Start the week connected.

Come and meet the Event & Media Partners — BTSE Enterprise Solutions · Minds by Animoca Brands · Otomato · CoinEasy · UXUY · Cryptonite UAE · Cryptopolitan · The Blockopedia (TBP) — as we all connect TOKEN2049 Singapore and beyond.

From One Mixer to a Connected TOKEN2049 Week

The launch is designed to extend far beyond a single event.

BORN.LIVE will also be working alongside BTSE Enterprise Solutions across its events during TOKEN2049 week, bringing BORN.LIVE activation and NFC connection experiences into multiple communities and audiences across Singapore.

BTSE Enterprise Solutions is a Gold Sponsor of TOKEN2049 Singapore 2026 and is hosting a programme of events around the conference week.

BORN.LIVE plans to activate across BTSE’s events, giving attendees opportunities to receive and use BORN.LIVE NFC devices and turn the people they meet throughout the week into persistent connections.

The collaboration creates an opportunity to test BORN.LIVE in the environment it was built for: people moving between events, communities and conversations, meeting hundreds of others over a matter of days.

Instead of every event existing as an isolated room, BORN.LIVE can create a connection layer that travels with the attendee.

Meet Once. Stay Connected.

TOKEN2049 Singapore brings together thousands of founders, investors, builders and operators from around the world.

People meet at conferences, side events, dinners, rooftops and parties. They exchange Telegram handles, LinkedIn profiles, QR codes and business cards.

Then the week ends.

BORN.LIVE is exploring what happens when those real-world interactions become part of a persistent network.

A BORN.LIVE NFC wristband, card or other device allows two people to connect with a tap, linking the interaction to their BORN identities and creating a relationship that can continue after the event.

“We don’t have a problem meeting people. We have a problem remembering the moment,” said Tim Kinslow, Founder of BORN.LIVE.

“TOKEN2049 is almost the perfect experiment for BORN.LIVE. Thousands of people fly into one city specifically to meet each other. We want someone to meet a person on Sunday, see them again at a BTSE event on Tuesday, discover mutual connections on Wednesday — and still have that relationship when everyone flies home.”

Cryptopolitan Joins as Media Partner

Cryptopolitan will support the BORN.LIVE Singapore launch as a Media Partner, helping bring the story of the launch, its partners and the emerging BORN.LIVE network to a wider global Web3 audience.

The partnership will provide media visibility around BORN.LIVE’s public debut and its activity throughout TOKEN2049 week.

For BORN.LIVE, the launch is not simply the introduction of another networking product.

It is the first public test of a much larger idea: whether a persistent identity and connection layer can bridge the relationships people build across different platforms, communities, events and physical locations.

One Human. One Permanent Number.

At the centre of BORN.LIVE is a permanent sequential number.

One human. One number.

The earlier someone joins, the earlier their number.

That number becomes a persistent reference point around which a person’s network can grow — connecting people, places, communities and eventually physical objects and digital experiences.

BORN.LIVE is not designed to replace LinkedIn, Telegram, wallets or existing social platforms.

It is being built as a human layer capable of connecting experiences across them.

“There are billions of usernames, accounts, wallets and profiles online, but there is still only one you,” said Kinslow.

“That’s where BORN.LIVE starts. You’re not your number. It’s your number. The interesting part is everything that can grow around it.”

Physical Connection Meets Digital Identity

BORN.LIVE is bringing that identity into the physical world through NFC-enabled wristbands, cards, pendants, stickers and other connection devices.

“A BORN.LIVE device isn’t simply another NFC link,” said Dewald Hamman, CTO of BORN.LIVE.

“It gives us a way to recognise that two people actually encountered each other in the real world and allow a network to form around those interactions. Singapore gives us the opportunity to test that across multiple events and communities at meaningful scale.”

The Number Is Only the Beginning

BORN.LIVE’s longer-term vision goes beyond event networking.

The platform is exploring how a persistent human identity layer could support experiences around human verification, proof of presence, communities, events, loyalty, reputation and ownership.

Technology will change.

Platforms will come and go.

There will still only ever be one you.

What’s Your BORN Number?

BORN.LIVE is opening ahead of its Singapore launch, with numbers issued sequentially.
