There are conferences. And then there is CatLumpurr.
Three days at The Arch Galeries in Kuala Lumpur, hundreds of participants from dozens of countries—and a massive LED wall at the entrance glowing with NFT avatars welcoming visitors. This is the annual gathering of Jupiter, one of the leading protocols on the Solana blockchain network and among the largest decentralized finance platforms in the world. CatLumpurr ’26, held from January 31 to February 2, 2026, was not just another industry conference—it was a meeting of people actively building the future of global finance.
That is exactly where we presented SINFT, an international project implemented by Poraka Nova as the project coordinator and funded by the Erasmus+ programme.
Where SINFT Was—and Why It Matters
As part of the event, the SINFT team presented the project to part of the international audience at CatLumpurr. Participants—traders, developers, investors, and project founders—came from Asia, Europe, and the Americas. For a project working at the intersection of technology and social impact, there is no better environment to test ideas than in front of people who understand blockchain from the inside.
The atmosphere in the venue spoke for itself: immersive design, massive LED screens, curated networking spaces, and panel sessions filled with concrete questions. People do not come to CatLumpurr for generic presentations—they come for ideas that have the potential to become reality.
What is SINFT?
SINFT—Social Initiative NFT—is an international project funded through the Erasmus+ programme, aiming to equip young people, youth organizations, and civil society groups with the skills to use NFT technologies, blockchain, and artificial intelligence for social impact. Not for speculation—for change.
The idea is simple: the technology that transformed the financial world can also be a tool for education, civic engagement, and social innovation. The project is supported by an international consortium including Macedonia, Georgia, Ukraine, Cyprus, France, and several partner organizations. So far, the team has held working meetings in Ohrid, Tbilisi, and Rome, where they are collectively developing an online learning platform—a MOOC—structured into six thematic modules covering blockchain, digital marketing, social entrepreneurship, and more. Ohrid was where it started. Kuala Lumpur was the first major global stage.
The Response and What Comes Next
Presenting to a crypto community with such a high level of technological literacy is a significant milestone for SINFT—not only in terms of promotion, but also validation. People who work with NFTs and blockchain on a daily basis understood the concept without long explanations. That is confirmation that the concept is mature and ready for the next step.
The project continues. The platform is under development, partnerships are growing, and both regional and international interest is increasing.
Macedonia has brought SINFT to the global stage, and we continue to create unique educational opportunities where technology is used for positive social impact.
