The Digitalstage.io is the response of entrepreneurs to a request from hundreds and thousands of artists and their fans that arose at the beginning of the COVID-19 era.

Most people missed live performances and concerts. It became clear that social media couldn’t fully compensate for the loss of interaction, and an entrepreneur in Germany named Richard Harless started looking into how to make live streams really cool and how to help create really great interactions with fans. This eventually led to Digitalstage.io.

NFT as a certificate of Authenticity

Artists would like to sell their merchandise (during the concert and in retail stores), and for each collectible entity to link & give out a certificate of authenticity in the form of NFT, thus providing additional value for the goods to prove the digital “authentic collectible” status.

To associate NFTs with different types of assets: both digital assets and physical merchandise.

Easy onboarding

To create a seamless and hassle-free onboarding experience for any user, with regard to creating an account, obtaining a wallet and receiving NFT – thus ensuring that access to the web3 technology is open-to-all and easy to get familiar with.

Sustainability

To provide the most sustainable, environment-friendly (low carbon footprint) and cost-efficient solution (incl. low gas fees).

A product that meets the requirements has been created and launched, and it continues to evolve.

The project was built completely from scratch. We used a set of technologies used to develop modern software solutions.

As part of the project, the following tasks had to be solved:

for brands and artists

– to connect and build their communities on a global scale, engage with their audience digitally
– to give artists the opportunity to sell their own NFT at the events via an integrated marketplace – for the digital collectibles (music, artwork) & physical merchandise.
– To add value by creating merch with digital engagements (for AR/VR, metaverse).

for the fans

– to determine the rarity of any unit of merch via blockchain.
– to build & maintain their NFT collections
– to enable secondary sell (resell) market for the merchandise.
