Event Attendance
Give attendees proof they were at your conference, meetup, workshop, or any gathering.
The Scenario
You're organizing an event — a Bitcoin conference, a local meetup, an online workshop. Attendees want proof they participated, and you want to recognize those who showed up.
Badge Ideas
Event Attendee
Basic proof of attendance for all participants.
Speaker
For presenters and panelists who shared their knowledge.
Sponsor
Recognize organizations that supported the event.
Volunteer
Thank the people who helped make it happen.
How to Implement
Create Event Badge
Design a badge specific to your event with year/date.
Collect Public Keys
Ask attendees for their npub during registration or at the event.
Verify Attendance
Confirm who actually attended before awarding.
Batch Award
Award all verified attendees at once after the event.
Collecting Keys at Events
Simple methods to gather attendee public keys:
- Registration form — Add an npub field
- QR code sign-in — Have attendees scan and submit
- Check-in sheet — Collect keys as people arrive
- Chat channel — Ask attendees to post their npub
Add the year to your badge identifier: bitcoin-conf-2024. This lets you issue fresh badges annually while keeping historical records clear.
