What is POAPathon?
With the advent of the phenomenon that is P.O.A.P. (Proof Of Attendance Protocol) spreading rapidly through the Web3 space, in September 2021 a need was identified in the POAP ecosystem. The need for artists & designers at the ready to produce quality POAPs at the ready. The idea for a design contest seemed an obvious answer. POAPathon was born. Initially soft-launching for NFT.NYC quickly grew & more contests were sponsored & added. A year-round, design production service was what emerged. POAPathon has grown to include logo, NFTs, & most recently POGs on ETH Denver 2022. The process has been adjusted, refined, streamlined, but is relatively the same for all products. Need a POAP? After a little info & a bounty offer, you will have several artists competing for your design.
