Seventeen events through the end of November, across four countries and four online. Most are onchain and digital assets — bitcoin, stablecoins, tokenisation, ETPs. The rest are the rooms where that meets payments, banking and capital markets.

Two days carry most of it. Wednesday 11 November has four, from a launch party in a Stockholm tennis hall to a talk in Oslo about bitcoin as a clock. Thursday 19 November has five, two of them in Stockholm ten minutes' walk apart the same evening.

One of them is ours: Impact Onchain with FirstBlock-athon Stockholm, now on 11 November.

A Kaupr virtual event with FirstBlock-athon Stockholm · Wednesday 11 November · 11:00–12:30 CET · Live online

In September, eight teams spent five days building in Stockholm. Then everyone went home.

This event is about what happens next. Not a look back at the hackathon, but a look at what it actually takes to turn five days of building into a project that survives contact with the real world — funding, partners, pilots, and the people who have to say yes.

It is also about blockchain beyond finance more broadly. The question is not limited to the eight challenge areas from September, and neither are the people we are bringing in.

Moved from 4 November to Wednesday 11 November. Free, live on Kaupr.io and YouTube, with the recording available afterwards.

Registration opens here first, before anywhere else. Register for Impact Onchain →
