Michael Prendiville, our Founder and CEO, has been named in the freshly released 2026 [DA] Top 50 Impact List, presented by BlockchainAPAC. It is his third consecutive year on the list, having also been named in 2024 and 2025.

The [DA] Top 50 is an influence-mapping exercise, not a vote and not an award, that recognises the people shaping Australia’s digital asset sector. You can read more about how the list is compiled on the [DA] Top 50 website.

The common thread across the list is institutional weight: the people and organisations deciding how digital assets connect to the wider financial system. That is the ground TAF Capital is built on. We provide regulated Australian infrastructure for settlement, liquidity and trusteeship, under one Australian Financial Services Licence.

With thanks

Our thanks to Steve Vallas, Richelle Cox and the BlockchainAPAC team, and to the assessors Elizabeth Reed, Victoria Richardson, Huw Phillips and Judy Anderson, for the time and care behind an independent process.

Congratulations to every honouree, and to the wider community whose work doesn’t always make a list but keeps moving the sector forward.
