👋BitBadges Overview
Here, you will find documentation about BitBadges, how it works, how to interact, and how to contribute!
🚀 The Next-Generation Token Standard
BitBadges offers tokenization-as-a-service and gating-as-a-service. We are building the best tokenization standard out there because current standards are simply not good enough. Our revolutionary token standard goes far beyond ERC-20, ERC-721, and other existing standards with features like time-dependent ownership, fine-grained transferability controls, multi-chain compatibility, connecting to 7000+ apps, connecting to EVM, IBC, CosmWASM, and more.
❓ Why BitBadges?
Traditional token standards are limited, inflexible, and locked to single blockchain ecosystems. BitBadges fixes this with a 100x improvement that supports:
Multi-Chain Compatibility - Users from ANY blockchain can own and transfer the SAME tokens. One interface, one token experience for all blockchain ecosystems.
Time-Dependent Ownership - Create subscriptions, time-locked tokens, and expiring credentials
Advanced Transferability - Fine-grained controls over who can transfer what, when, and how on any level
No Code by Default, No Smart Contracts Required - Everything works out-of-the-box with no code
Connect to 7000+ Apps - Connect to 7000+ apps and integrations with seamless on/off-chain criteria checks
Connect to Cosmos via IBC - Connect to Cosmos and beyond via IBC and use the BitBadges token standard on any Cosmos chain
Extend with CosmWASM or EVM Contracts - Extend the BitBadges token standard with CosmWASM or EVM contracts
Customizable Permissions - Flexible manager controls for collections
🛠️ Supporting Services
We also offer complementary services:
Sign In with BitBadges - Universal, outsource multi-chain authentication
Claims - Check criteria and deliver rewards in no-code off-chain from 7000+ apps and integrations
Address Lists - Manage users across multiple blockchains
🔍 How BitBadges Works
BitBadges can be simply thought of in two parts.
Criteria Checking: Let us do the heavy lifting of checking the criteria through multi-chain authentication, criteria checks from 7000+ apps, multi-chain tokens / NFTs, points, address lists, and much more!
Utility: Seamlessly offer gated services like websites, URLs, tiered perks, subscriptions, anything to users who meet the criteria!
💡 Use Cases
Create anything from subscriptions and memberships to tradable NFTs, credentials, and access tokens - all with the most advanced token standard ever built.
🤔 Motive for building BitBadges?
The answer is simple. We believe in the potential of blockchains and a multi-chain world, but this potential cannot be realized with the current infrastructure and technology in place today.
🤖 Tokens vs Badges?
BitBadges uses the terms tokens and badges interchangeably. You will often see us refer to badges throughout this documentation. This means tokens.
