Crypto for Jets and Yachts – Trend or Transformation?

Is crypto reshaping the way for high-value aviation and yacht transactions are completed? Or is it simply hype?

This compelling panel at the IOM Aviation Conference 2026 cuts through the noise to address the real-world payment challenges facing brokers and operators today. Moderated by Mark Bisset (Clyde & Co), the discussion brings together legal, operational, and technical expertise to tackle the real questions facing the industry from common misconceptions around risk and compliance, to how blockchain payments can actually increase transparency when used with regulated infrastructure.

Joining the conversation are:

  • Paul Doherty (ACASS Ireland)
  • Tyler Betts (Overchain)
  • Graham Williamson (GAMA Aviation)
  • Lawrence Power (Whitestone Chambers)

Delegates will gain practical insights, including:

  • How 24/7 settlement can transform operations.
  • Why speed and certainty matter in cross-border transactions.
  • How crypto can be offered without wallets, volatility, or balance-sheet risk, with operators simply receiving USD.

A must-attend for anyone navigating cross-border payments in business aviation and beyond.
