Hong Kong, 27th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, ELLIPAL, a leader in air-gapped cold wallet technology, has been announced as a Secondary Exhibition Sponsor for the Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026, taking place from April 20 to 23, 2026, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The partnership highlights ELLIPAL’s commitment to advancing cryptocurrency security and supporting Asia’s premier gathering where security, innovation, and regulatory discussions converge.
ELLIPAL is a Hong Kong-based company founded in 2018 that pioneered the air-gapped cold wallet category—devices that remain 100% offline and isolated from any network connections. The company created the first large-screen air-gapped cold wallet, the ELLIPAL Titan, in 2019, and has since been ranked as a Top 3 Cold Wallet by Forbes. After six years of operation, ELLIPAL now serves users in 140 countries worldwide, staying true to its original mission of providing safe, convenient, and user-friendly crypto storage solutions.
What Makes ELLIPAL Different
The core innovation behind ELLIPAL is its air-gapped technology, which ensures the device never connects to the internet, other devices, or networks of any kind. Unlike traditional hardware wallets from Ledger or Trezor that require USB cables or Bluetooth connections, ELLIPAL wallets communicate exclusively through QR codes—visual information that travels through light and cannot be hacked or intercepted remotely.
The ELLIPAL Titan 2.0, the company’s flagship product, features a 4-inch HD IPS touchscreen and is built with a fully metal-sealed body that’s virtually indestructible. The device includes a CC EAL5+ certified secure element, representing bank-grade security standards that protect against even sophisticated physical attacks. No WiFi, no Bluetooth, no USB ports—just pure offline security.
What really sets ELLIPAL apart is its anti-tamper technology. If someone attempts to physically breach the device through disassembly or tampering, the system automatically detects the intrusion and deletes all data, rendering the device useless to attackers. This self-destruct mechanism protects users not just from remote hacking but from physical theft and supply chain attacks—threats that traditional hardware wallets often overlook.
Comprehensive Crypto Management
Despite being completely offline, ELLIPAL supports an impressive range of assets: 40+ blockchains, 50+ stablecoins, and over 10,000 tokens including Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, USDT, and NFTs on Ethereum and Polygon. The platform integrates with MetaMask and WalletConnect, allowing users to access over 200 decentralized applications (dApps) for DeFi activities.
The ELLIPAL mobile app acts as a proxy, connecting to the blockchain on behalf of the cold wallet while keeping private keys completely isolated. Users can buy, sell, swap, and stake crypto through the app, with third-party service providers like Simplex and MoonPay handling fiat transactions. Every transaction initiated by the app requires two-step verification using the cold wallet itself—scanning QR codes back and forth to authorize transactions without ever exposing private keys online.
ELLIPAL also launched the X Card, described as the world’s first air-gapped crypto card wallet. Credit-card sized and featuring a CC EAL6+ certified secure element (even higher security than the Titan series), the X Card uses NFC technology to communicate with the ELLIPAL app for one-tap crypto transactions. The card offers unlimited backup freedom—users can back up their seed phrase across 10 independent cards, each functioning as a standalone wallet.
About the Hong Kong Web3 Festival
The Hong Kong Web3 Festival, co-hosted by Wanxiang Blockchain Labs and HashKey Group and organized by W3ME, has established itself as Asia’s premiere crypto gathering since April 2023. The Festival convenes the world’s smartest minds in Web3 and cryptocurrency to discuss the latest trends, policies, and technological breakthroughs.
The previous three editions brought together over 350 exhibitors and more than 1,200 speakers for substantive discussions, attracting a cumulative total of 100,000 visitors with over 400 diverse side events complementing the main programming. The 2026 edition will feature up to 300 speakers representing all aspects of Web3 and crypto, with registrations from over 500 executives and corporate decision-makers in traditional finance and real economies—transforming the event into a high-level platform for in-depth dialogues and high-value connections.
Why ELLIPAL’s Involvement Matters
ELLIPAL’s participation as a Secondary Exhibition Sponsor carries particular significance given the current state of crypto security. Exchange hacks, phishing attacks, and wallet exploits continue to plague the industry, with billions of dollars lost annually to various forms of theft and fraud. As the industry matures and institutional adoption accelerates, the demand for military-grade security solutions that eliminate remote attack vectors becomes increasingly critical.
The Festival leverages Hong Kong’s unique position as a global financial center and innovation powerhouse, bridging Mainland China’s vast market potential with worldwide Web3 advancements. For a security-focused company like ELLIPAL that’s headquartered in Hong Kong, the event provides an ideal venue to showcase how air-gapped technology can protect both retail users and institutional investors navigating the complexities of digital asset custody.
