EventChain
EventChain is an advanced decentralized blockchain token network that powers a unique smart contract ticketing system (SmartTickets™).
Description
EventChain solves many of the problems with current event ticketing systems available today while providing the additional benefits of using a blockchain as the foundation. Both the EventChain system and its tokens (“EVC Tokens”) encourages everyone in the ecosystem, including all stake holders such as event managers of sport and concert events, party organizers, social clubs and ticket purchasers to sell or buy SmartTickets using EVC Tokens and other traditional payment methods.
Mission Statement
EventChain’s mission is to:
1. Solve a long list of issues for event ticket sales by providing the advanced functionality
of SmartTickets using EVC Tokens. See following sections for details.
2. Provide holders of EVC Tokens with benefits such as early bird tickets, priority seating
and discounted pricing.
3. Foster the utilization of EVC Tokens inside the EventChain SmartTicketing platform.
Although EventChain will utilize various payment gateways that accept EVC Tokens to
purchase products and services from over 205,000 vendors across 182 different
countries, all significant ticketing benefits will be available only to those using EVC
Tokens.
ICO start date: 2017-10-14
Concept
EventChain alpha is already live to purchase tickets using EventChain tokens (EVC) on the Ethereum testnet blockchain. The cost of processing a ticketing transaction on network averages 5 cents or less, significantly cheaper than the current ticketing systems available. The Alpha Decentralized application has a “web2 sidechain” to harness these technological benefits with little technical expertise and is also fully functioning on desktop and mobile devices and also a web 3 backend for coders to be able to create events and sell or buy tickets using command lines. The aim of EventChain - no counterfeit tickets, overpriced resale markup, and no excessive processing fees in the event industry anymore.
Sell tickets: - EventChain Mobile App or desktop client is used to create events and issue tickets. EventChain has peg ticket price floors, ceiling or custom variables for resale tickets. It also sets price control, promotes commission and spot scalpers with the EventChain reputation system.
Buy tickets: - Users can quickly purchase tickets on EventChain app. Blockchain tech displays the total tickets available. User can also build and grow his digital ticket wall which assists him share event memories with friends and family.
