Background
As a community, we have a responsibility to use web3 applications when possible. When we dogfood the experience, we learn and iterate, slowly improving the process.
blockParty is a creation and discovery tool for web3 event organizers and attendees. It enables organizers to create events with tickets (free or paid) as NFTs, letting them move beyond third-party platforms (Eventbrite, Meetup, Partiful) and their centralized databases and payment processors, to a decentralized solution they own and control.
How it's built
- Unlock Protocol for contract creation and token distribution, making event creation through a contract efficient.
- Lens Protocol for SSO, removing the need to fill out a form to sign up.
- Optimism for free-event ticketing (low gas), ApeCoin on Mainnet for paid events.
Stitching these pieces together produced an MVP used for events at Empire DAO in NYC through November 2022.
