In this video recap from the European Blockchain Convention in Barcelona, Morten Myrstad and Leon Aleksander Solbakken from Kaupr share takeaways after two intense days of discussions with leaders, builders, and investors across Europe.
We’ve outlined some of the main insights in writing, but to truly feel the atmosphere and understand what stood out, watch the video, where Leon and Morten reflect on the highlights and moments that capture the spirit of this year’s convention.
Europe’s new regulatory clarity was a recurring theme across the convention, shaping discussions on how blockchain becomes part of the financial infrastructure rather than operating outside it.
Speakers and attendees stressed how tokenization is moving from promise to practice. Real‑world asset projects, fund applications, and on‑chain investment frameworks were all part of the forward‑looking momentum.
Stablecoins, especially those pegged to the euro, were discussed as central to interoperability between traditional finance and crypto. Their role in liquidity and payments continues to expand in Europe’s evolving market.
Through interviews and conversations on site, the Kaupr team met several Nordic founders and execs contributing to Europe’s blockchain growth. Their insights will unfold further in upcoming videos and stories on Kaupr’s platforms.
This year, the Kaupr team has been on a continuous journey to explore what truly drives progress in the Nordic and European Web3, crypto, and blockchain ecosystems.
From the Norway Fintech Festival in Bergen and the Nordic Blockchain Conference in Stockholm, to BTCHEL in Helsinki, DNB’s Digital Asset Summit in Oslo, Nordic Fintech Week in Copenhagen, Digital Asset Week in London, and now the European Blockchain Convention in Barcelona — each event has strengthened our network and perspective.
Along the way, we have been live‑blogging, creating video interviews, and meeting founders, thought leaders, and investors. These experiences form the foundation of the growing knowledge base that will continue to shape Kaupr’s future coverage of Nordic and European digital finance.
