Detailed Plan

NFTickets will become a tool for event hosts and institutions where tickets in any form are needed (entry, VIP, participation, …). Tickets will be minted as NFTs native assets on the Cardano Blockchain.

Why NFTs?

Easy verification of the authenticity of tickets for secondary market and verification at the time of the event with the following advantages:

This allows for organizers:

• Easy setting max ticket numbers (if applicable)
• Easy change of settings for future tickets, imprinting of the relevant parameters into the tickets Metadata
• No need to sell minted tickets as minting can be made to be done by the user
• Simple verification of the authenticity of tickets using our WebApp

This allows for users:

• Easy resale on secondary markets (each CNFT markets)
• Allows collection of tickets as unique souvenirs of special events / entries to exhibitions / travels / ..
• Transparent sale

Roadmap

We will first develop a simple website which allows event organizers, or traveling companies to create ticket-NFTs via two different procedures. At the same time, we will get in contact with local "crypto events" as e.g. the local meetups of next Cardano summit meetings or online events. As Cardano is not established throughout the real world, we will work with event hosts to allow an "optional sale through Cardano" besides fiat. Here we thought of art exhibitions in Berlin for the beginning. Also we will try to get online event makers involved and also let the community suggest first cooperations. No contacts has been established now, but will be focused on as soon as funding is set.

If you have potential partners for early usage let us know in the comments

How will it work?

A) A limited batch of ticket NFTs can be minted on our webpage at once and later be distributed as preferred by the organizer. Here all aspects of the tickets (such as date, name of the event, type of event, location, time, ..) can be specified beforehand. This is suitable when the tickets are limited to a certain number and don't depend on participants names.

B) Alternatively, the organizers provide necessary information to allow the user to mint the ticket on their own while filling in a form with e.g. Name, country of residence, …

Possible options which can be imprinted into the NFT can then be:

• Time until it is possible to mint,
• Bonding curve,
• Max ticket number (might also be unlimited for e.g. online events or train / bus tickets)
• Which data is needed to be provided by the buyer (e.g. name, country of residence, time of travel, …)

For each event, the event-participant will find a simple webpage, where he / she can buy or mint their ticket with providing datum if necessary. Via smart contract, which allows automatic processing of the NFT to the user, the money will be forwarded to the event-organizer and a small fee will be applied to our team.

At the time of the event, the NFT can be verified by policy ID and metadata via Web application or mobile applications.

What is our longtime goal?

Our goal is to finally establish ticket systems for different use cases and become a platform of trust for ticket sales for e.g.

• Festivals
• Concerts,
• Galleries and exhibitions
• Auctions
• Online Events (as Cardano Summits)
• Courses (education)
• Transport (Ferry, train, bus, plane
• Museums
• Touristic tours and full travel packages
• political summits
• other political or social events of any kind
• contact us for further ideas, e.g. already having some organizer / company in mind which we might get in touch with

TIMEPLAN:

First we will work together with a few companies and small event hosts, and later open up an automated option for companies to create NFTs-ticket sales without our review process.

-> within the first 3 months:

Create the smart contracts used, validate them and set up a webpage. Get in contact with potential event hosts.

-> within the first 6 months:

Create test events and mint first tickets / allow minting and testing of different types of tickets, establish connections to event hosts for events in the next

-> within the first 12 months:

Host the first events and subsequently open up the platform for various event-hosts and users, distribute validation webapps / mobile application for event hosts and allow automatic minting and event hosting.

FUNDING:

9000 Plutus dev for 3 months. (me)

9000 Backend Dev for 3 months. (applications already received, but may be opened again after funding)

9000 Frontend Dev for 3 months. (application will be opened after funding is received)

5000 Marketing, design and social media management for three months. - this position and tasks related to it may not be done by a fourth person, but distributed among the first three workers

The time after the three months will be funded by first ticket sales of early stages of the project, distribution of utility tokens / Cardano crowd funding options.
