Pyth Network to speak at WFIC on October 13 alongside Nasdaq and Cboe
CryptoNews.net reports Pyth Network will speak at the World Financial Information Conference on October 13, 2026, on a panel with Nasdaq and Cboe, represented by Michael James.
Why it matters
A stage slot next to Nasdaq and Cboe puts Pyth's data business in front of institutional market-data buyers, and a genuine 94.4% share of $2.16 trillion in RWA perpetual volume would weigh on rival data and perps venues. Nothing in the file corroborates that share, the revenue figures or the buyback commitment, and a conference speaking slot by itself carries limited significance.

What happened
CryptoNews.net reported that Pyth Network will speak at the World Financial Information Conference (WFIC) on October 13, 2026, with Nasdaq and Cboe taking part in the same panel discussion. Michael James from Pyth is expected to appear on stage and discuss the company's approach to market pricing, and the outlet described WFIC as a market-data conference held every two years. No other outlet in the desk's file reports the invitation, so the account rests on a single aggregator-published item. Two other CryptoNews.net pieces from the same window cover separate Pyth business news rather than the conference: a price piece credited to coinedition.com says the Pyth DAO has committed 100% of revenue to buybacks and that $PYTH traded near $0.0865 on October 13, up 6.20% on the day after touching $0.0881. The third piece reports Q3 2026 annual recurring revenue of $11.49 million, up 86% from Q2, with $5.33 million in net new ARR. It also says Pyth venues account for 94.4% of $2.16 trillion in real-world asset perpetual volume, that Nasdaq Basic went live on the Pyth Data Marketplace, and that Pyth is the sole Source Agency for Kalshi's gold and silver perpetual contracts, none of which any other source in the file corroborates.
