What is a POAP?

Just as a physical passport serves as a tangible record of an individual's journey and doubles as a form of identification and verification, a POAP Digital Collectible operates similarly in the digital sphere.

POAP

(Proof of Attendance Protocol)

POAPs (Proof of Attendance Protocol) are like collecting digital passport stamps, but they use a technology called blockchain. Imagine blockchain as a super secure digital notebook that everyone agrees on. Once something is written in this notebook, it can’t be changed or erased, so you can trust that it’s real and belongs to you.

When you visit a special place or attend an event, you get a POAP—like a digital stamp that proves you were there. The blockchain keeps track of all your POAPs, just like a stamp book that can’t be lost or tampered with. It’s a way to keep your memories safe, share them with friends, and prove you’ve been to cool places. So, while POAPs feel like collecting stamps, blockchain makes sure your collection is secure and truly yours, no matter what!

POAP GLOBAL

POAP Global is a separate project built on top of the POAP protocol, just like how a video game might be built on top of a gaming console. While the POAP protocol provides the core technology to create and collect these digital stamps, POAP Global takes it a step further by turning it into a fun, interactive travel experience.

So, while POAP is the technology that makes digital stamps possible, POAP Global is the exciting adventure app that uses this technology to let you travel, collect, and connect with the world in a whole new way!
