POAP (Proof of Attendance Protocol)
Also known as: Web3 Event Badge, Attendance NFT, POAP Token
A digital badge protocol that issues NFTs to verify attendance at events, activities, or milestones.
POAP (Proof of Attendance Protocol) is an Ethereum-based system for issuing NFT badges to attendees of events, activities, or accomplishments. Each POAP is a non-fungible token that serves as a verifiable record of participation. POAPs are often distributed at conferences, community calls, hackathons, or digital experiences, and can be claimed via QR codes or email links. They build on the ERC-721 standard and live on the Gnosis Chain to reduce fees. POAPs foster community engagement, reputation systems, and identity building in Web3 ecosystems.
