Project Description

The DegenDrink project is an advanced, blockchain-integrated drink dispenser designed for events like tech conferences, meetups, and social gatherings. Here's a detailed description:

  1. Hardware Design: DegenDrink is a sophisticated hardware machine, similar to a traditional drink dispenser but equipped with modern technology. It's designed to automatically mix and serve a variety of drinks, from cocktails to soft beverages.

  2. Blockchain Integration: At its core, the machine uses blockchain technology. This allows for secure, transparent transactions and the ability to integrate with multiple blockchain networks (multi-chain capability).

  3. NFC Wristbands: Attendees at events receive NFC-enabled wristbands. These wristbands act as digital wallets and are linked to the user's cryptocurrency or digital currency accounts. They can be pre-loaded by event sponsors with a certain number of complimentary drinks or can be topped up by users to purchase drinks.

  4. Drink Selection: The machine offers a selection of 17 different drinks. Users can choose their preferred drink through an interactive interface on the machine. The menu can be customized based on the event or sponsor's preferences.

  5. User Interaction: To order a drink, the user simply approaches the machine, scans their NFC wristband, and selects their drink of choice. The transaction is processed through the blockchain network, ensuring a secure and quick payment process.

  6. Transaction Recording: Each transaction is recorded on the blockchain, providing a transparent record of sales and consumption. This feature is particularly useful for event organizers and sponsors to track engagement and consumption patterns.

  7. Self-Service Model: The DegenDrink machine operates on a self-service model, reducing the need for staff and wait times, and enhancing the user experience at crowded events.

  8. Event Customization: The machine can be customized for specific events, both in terms of the drink menu and the branding on the machine, making it a versatile choice for various types of events.

  9. Benefits for Sponsors: Sponsors can use the machine as a tool for engagement and brand promotion. They can preload wristbands with tokens for free drinks or offer special drink options aligned with their branding.

Overall, DegenDrink merges the world of blockchain and web2 with practical applications in event management and hospitality, offering a novel, tech-savvy, and user-friendly beverage service solution. We're taking parties in the world of web3 to a new level!

How it's Made

We developed the frontend utilizing Next.js technology. The application's design was crafted in Figma. Our hardware integration includes a Raspberry Pi, equipped with three fluid pumps, transistors, switches, microcontrollers, and an LCD display. The indexing component was implemented using a the graph, while the backend was built with JavaScript. For the payments/wristbands we've used ARX HaLo chips.
