Tangem, a leading global hardware wallet company, has partnered with Octaloop’s India Blockchain Tour 2026 as a Powered By Partner. As part of this collaboration, Tangem will be distributing hundreds of hardware wallets to educate Indians on crypto security and self-custody.
With the increasing adoption of cryptocurrencies in India, there is a growing need for individuals to understand the importance of securely owning and controlling their digital assets.
Tangem’s expertise in hardware wallet security and self-custody will be showcased at India Blockchain Tour 2026 and its flagship event Metamorphosis as a Powered By Partner, reaching crypto communities nationwide.
Through this partnership, Tangem will distribute Tangem hardware wallets throughout the tour, aiming to educate Indian crypto users on self-custody, private-key security, and the significance of managing their digital assets independently.
The collaboration between Tangem and India Blockchain Tour emphasizes their shared goal of making blockchain technology more accessible, with Tangem offering secure self-custody infrastructure and IBT focusing on nationwide education and community building.
Empowering Indian Crypto Users with Self-Custody
Cryptocurrency enables individuals to have direct ownership of digital assets without relying on centralized intermediaries. However, this ownership comes with the responsibility of understanding private keys, wallet security, phishing risks, recovery mechanisms, and self-custody.
Tangem’s hardware wallets provide a secure way for users to manage their digital assets, keeping private keys protected within a hardware device. Designed with NFC technology and certified to EAL6+ standards, Tangem’s card-based wallet eliminates the need for batteries or charging.
Through the Powered By partnership, Tangem will educate users across India about wallet security, targeting both experienced crypto users and newcomers to the ecosystem.
Significance of the Indian Crypto Market
India has emerged as a prominent cryptocurrency market globally, ranking first in Chainalysis’ 2025 Global Crypto Adoption Index. The country’s substantial crypto adoption underscores the importance of crypto security education.
As Indians engage with various digital assets like Bitcoin, stablecoins, DeFi, and NFTs, understanding asset ownership and security becomes crucial. Tangem sees India as an opportunity to promote self-custody in a market with millions of digital asset users.
Extending Blockchain Education Across India
India Blockchain Tour has been committed to spreading blockchain education and fostering a Web3 ecosystem across the country. By reaching communities in Tier-1 and Tier-2 cities, IBT aims to engage a diverse range of stakeholders in the blockchain space.

The partnership between Tangem and IBT signifies a shift towards hands-on education, moving beyond theoretical blockchain concepts to practical self-custody experiences for Indian crypto enthusiasts.
