Hi all! We've got a couple of ideas for you to look into and make your own!
- A touring optimisation app, so artists and their managers can use past data to plan when they should hit which cities and which venues on their tours.
- An app for promoters to find influencers or forums to sell their tickets. Like a marketplace, except maybe optimising which influencers/forums to show which promoters/events (e.g. if a promoter has tickets to sell to a Star Wars events, connect them with Youtubers that always speak about Star Wars or forums that always speak about Star Wars).
- A website for ticket buyers to check the authenticity of their tickets, directly to the blockchain! You can let them scan their QR codes and input their addresses, and show them what it says on the blockchain as the current owner of the ticket.
- A ticket resale market, like decentralised Stubhub!
- An event listing app that lists the best events for a person based on their social media profile and where they live; like a decentralised YPlan.

AVENTUS TOKEN SALE DATE HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED! SEPTEMBER 6 SEE THIS LINK FOR THE FULL DETAILS!
Hello everyone! Today, we are pleased to present the Aventus Protocol DApp Ideas Competition, where members of the public are invited to come up with and present detailed ideas for DApps powered by the Aventus protocol.
This blog post will explain the details, but for the full spec (and how-to guide), a proposal example, and the current submissions, see the Github repository.
Interested potential participants can refer to this blog post for an overview of key parts of the Aventus ecosystem, and different questions and processes a layer above the protocol that can be addressed by DApps to provide a better service to event organisers, promoters, ticket buyers, and other industry participants. Hopefully, this will serve as inspiration for some excellent ideas!
Below, we will outline the competition structure. If you have any questions on anything discussed in this article or in the full Github competition specification, please join the #dapp-competition channel on our Slack.
The competition will run from 21 August to 3 September, and the top 3 proposals will be selected by the 5 September.
Throughout the time period, candidates will be able to submit detailed proposals for their DApp ideas as issues in the AventusSystems/aventus-dapp-proposals repository.
An Aventus team member will review every submitted proposal and approve/reject it based on its adherence to the Aventus DApp Proposal Standard.
Once it is approved, the proposal will be added to the Aventus DApp Proposal Competition Voting Form, where individuals can vote on their choice for the top 3 DApp ideas. The vote outcomes can be found if you click view past responses in the form. Note: for an approved proposal submission, you will receive a reward of ~$30 in AVT (at the initial valuation).
On 3 September, the 6 proposals with the highest number of votes will be selected and put through to the competition’s judging panel (see below). The judges will then select the winner (AVT prize of ~$10,000 at initial valuation), the runner-up (AVT prize of ~$4,000 at initial valuation), and third place (AVT prize of ~$1,000 at initial valuation).
- First place: 4000 AVT ($10,000*)
- Second place: 1600 AVT ($4,000*)
- Third place: 400 AVT ($1,000*)
For submitting a proposal that is then approved: 12 AVT ($30*)
