    NFT tickets that unlock loyalty

    About

    The problem it solves ## **The problem it solves** Hallos is an **NFT ticketing platform** that reinvents ticketing and loyalty by combining **Web2 simplicity with Web3 ownership**. Traditional ticketing is broken: fraud, inflated resales, zero loyalty, and organizers losing control of their own audience. Hallos solves this by giving organizers full control and fans safer, more rewarding access. With Hallos, organizers can: - **Stop fraud & scalping** → Onchain tickets with verifiable ownership. - **Control resale & royalties** → Price caps, resale fees, and direct-to-fan verification. - **Unlock loyalty & culture** → Attendees earn digital collectibles, exclusive content, and perks tied to their NFT ticket. - **Keep it Web2-simple** → Fans can sign up with email or social login, pay with card or crypto — all without needing to know they are using Web3. - **Turn events into long-term communities** → Loyalty streaks, unlockable content, token-gated fan clubs. --- ### **Current State** Hallos has been live in the market for over a year. This year, we **redesigned and relaunched the platform (v2.0)** with a cleaner UX to scale beyond blockchain-native communities into the mainstream music and cultural industries. Our goal is to bring **onchain ticketing and loyalty** to the mainstream music, cultural, and tech industries. Between 2024 and 2025, Hallos powered ticketing for dozens of events across Latin America, including: - **Ethereum Pura Vida** (2023, 2024) – Costa Rica - **Monabit Tour** – LATAM - **El Gran BTC Day** – Colombia - **BTC Mining Ecuador** – Ecuador - **BTC Pizza Day** by CriptoLatinFest – Colombia - **In person launch event by Hallos** – during the Colombia Tech Week **Paid events in 2025:** - *Plan B* (Feb 7, Costa Rica) — 200 attendees - *Tico Blockchain 2025* (Mar 27, Costa Rica) — 250 attendees - *Panamá Blockchain Week* (Apr 23, Panamá) — 1,000+ attendees, generating **$27,000+ USD in sales for the organizer** - *CriptoLatinFest 2025* (Aug 21–22, Colombia) — **4,700+ NFT tickets minted on Base**, generating **$19,000+ USD in sales for the organizer** Upcoming: **Tenerife Economic Congress 2026** (Spain) Smart Contract Address(es) All ticketing contracts are deployed on **Base** and fully verifiable onchain, powering both physical and virtual events across LATAM. ## **Core NFT Ticketing Contracts (on Base)** **Cripto Latin Fest 2025 – 8ª Edición** (4,766 tickets) *0xA375F8C430452ff488308F571935460A417FaB08* **Historias #Irrepetibles del mundo Crypto** (101 tickets) 0xfB9A680a9Ce0d507FDbf8437d0716170DaE030b9 **Ethereum Pura Vida 2024** (193 tickets) 0x212E60Ad0346516Ca0B2BFEDDcaCf869A6391610 **Plan B: Bass & Brews** (101 tickets) 0x2cA1BB884683BFcB65b3726C4299f8b59c88162A **Plan B – 7 de febrero** (149 tickets) 0xc886dE9B00Cc8112efEa5E43E8728434566f072A **TicoBlockchain 2025** (240 tickets) 0xA491d2dDC385C9333100C4213c04015Af13604f4 **Panamá Blockchain Week** (835 tickets) 0x855536c9e2bFFAf404aB5e32fd6D90ed571fdE26 **Bitcoin Pizza Day** (164 tickets) 0xf8f7C95ef0F72FF8A4b7853796FF7051575E52C5 **Bitcoin Pizza Day Medellín** (82 tickets) 0xA14008E4E1758dAC20d4922c1cb2A418AdFA8816 **MonaBit Tour 2.0 – Cali Pizza Day** (111 tickets) 0x69500c76b3260d0bECf8Acecbf5423Be53a8f1Fa **After Party – Money Expo** (489 tickets) 0xd0B596D0A90dCadbB1DB9BBb8f72Eb23e56958Ec **Hallos Unlocked – Official Virtual Event** (71 tickets) 0x987Bb6055E4E861d02C1FCe68cCfD84056cCC988 Other Onchain Proof **Active user metrics via Thirdweb** Screenshot shows real-time active users and new user signups, demonstrating adoption and engagement.

    How it's made

    Challenges we ran into One of our biggest challenges was redesigning Hallos to meet the real needs of event organizers. Clients wanted a platform that felt as simple as Web2 but was still fully onchain, so we rebuilt the product (v2.0) with a new design, streamlined check-in flows, and modular loyalty tools. This included developing features like discounts for NFT holders, exclusive content unlocks, and loyalty streaks — which required improving the platform while keeping the user experience seamless for non-crypto-native fans. Another major hurdle was ticket security at scale. Events with thousands of attendees needed QR codes that couldn’t be faked or resold outside the system. We built a verification layer where each QR scan is tied to an onchain NFT ticket, ensuring real-time validation at the door. This not only prevented fraud but gave organizers confidence that every entry was authentic and traceable onchain.
