QuickNode

Miami, United States

Alex Taub

I'm the CEO of Quicknode, the reliability layer for the blockchain and AI-agent economy. We give builders the infrastructure — RPC endpoints, data streaming, and developer tooling across 130+ chains — that production applications depend on. My focus is straightforward: make that infrastructure fast, reliable, and economically sustainable as crypto moves from speculation to real usage.
I split my time across Ibiza, Cascais, Andorra, and Miami, which gives me a vantage point on how technology, capital, and community are reorganizing themselves outside the traditional hubs.
At the Eco Summit, I'll make the case for where decentralized networks, verifiable data, and AI agents actually create value — not the version where every problem is a blockchain problem, but the narrower, more defensible one where transparency and verifiability genuinely outperform the alternatives. I'm more interested in what these systems can be held accountable for than in what they're promised to do.
Outside of work, I'm on the water as often as I can be — yachting and the ocean are how I reset. I'm also a dog dad to Rafa, a Bernedoodle, and Ubbe, a German Shepherd.
