In the meantime read one story about the coming Blockathon in Stockholm, an event that we will be covering going forward in the newsletter Onchain Build.
And quite soon - welcome to Onchain by Kaupr!

Blockathon launches at major tech conference in Stockholm
A major tech conference in Stockholm will, in 2026, become the stage for what's described as a shift in the industry – from showcasing what technology can do, to proving what it should do.Blockathon launches at major tech conference in Stockholm
From experimentation to accountability
FirstBlock, the organizer behind the competition, points to a shift in how the conversation around AI, blockchain and startups has evolved. Less focus falls on raw technical capability, and more on how systems become more transparent and automation more accountable.
What the blockathon involves
The competition, called FirstBlock-athon, targets founders, industry leaders, developers, researchers, students and other builders. The theme is "Impact On Chain," and the goal is solutions with real-world impact – not just technical demonstrations.
Part of Nordic Tech Week 2026
The event is part of Nordic Tech Week 2026 in Stockholm. FirstBlock says further details on the challenge, ecosystem partners, sponsors, jury, mentors and prizes will be revealed gradually in the coming months.
