Someone shared with me that they thought it was hard to start sharing without knowing who's really here. I agree, also on the suggestion of a member directory, which I have brought to the team in Beehiiv, which has created this content and community platform.
Waiting for any improvements, the best way at the moment would then be to use the Who's here channel to tell something about yourself. And of course, also a hi can work!
Building from zero on Saturday, we are now 20 members, mostly from Sweden and Norway at the moment.
Hi everyone, just wanted to say hello. I’m looking forward to enrich this community with my perspectives and energy.
The first virtual pre-event ahead of Blockathon Stockholm
Our first Blockathon Stockholm pre-event.
via Onchain by KauprFollow it as it happens — there's a channel in Onchain Community where everything gets shared and anyone can ask or post.
What it is, who's behind it, and how to take part.
via Onchain by KauprWe're opening a space, Onchain Community, where readers can talk to each other, not just read.
Start in Who's here — I've gone first.
And our first Blockathon Stockholm pre-event is on 20 August.
via Onchain by KauprHi everyone — Morten here.
I run Kaupr, which means I write, edit, produce and press publish, mostly on my own. Before this I spent more than 30 years in communications and consulting, including a stretch as a financial journalist. Right now I'm covering onchain finance across the Nordics and Baltics, and building the place where you can follow it.
One thing you might not know: I sing bass in a mixed choir. Rhythmic stuff — pop, jazz, even hip-hop.
Your turn.
Two of the Nordics' best-known crypto exchanges have put numbers on the table. Safello reported its second quarter on Friday; Firi's 2025 accounts became known on Monday. Both point at the licence — Safello as the position it now holds, Firi as what made last year expensive.
Further down in this issue: events worth your time this autumn, from Helsinki to Riga, and new pieces from Onchain Build.

via Onchain by KauprTwo things happened this week, and they point in opposite directions. A Norwegian company took over the running of a business on another continent. A Swiss company named the Nordics as the first market for its European entity.
Different companies, different regulatory realities, same movement: the Nordic industry is no longer bounded by the Nordics, in either direction.
