Ticket Usage Logging via Blockchain
Objective
To develop a secure, transparent, and tamper-proof ticketing system using blockchain technology. The platform logs ticket creation, transfers, and usage on a blockchain ledger to prevent fraud, duplication, and unauthorized entry for events, travel, or services.
Key Features

| User Registration & Login | Users create accounts to purchase, transfer, and manage tickets securely. |
| Ticket Creation & Issuance | Generate unique, blockchain-registered tickets for events or services. |
| Blockchain Logging | Each ticket’s lifecycle (creation, transfer, redemption) is recorded on a decentralized blockchain ledger. |
| Ticket Transfer | Secure peer-to-peer transfer of tickets with blockchain verification. |
| Ticket Redemption | Tickets validated at entry using blockchain to ensure authenticity. |
| QR Code / NFC Integration | Digital tickets with scannable codes linked to blockchain records. |
| Admin Dashboard | Create events, manage tickets, monitor blockchain logs, and handle disputes. |
| Analytics & Reporting | Track ticket sales, transfers, redemption rates, and event attendance. |
| Notifications | Alerts for ticket purchase confirmation, transfers, and event reminders. |

Workflow
-
User Registration/Login → Users create accounts to manage tickets.
-
Ticket Creation → Admin generates tickets for events; tickets recorded on blockchain.
-
Purchase & Issuance → Users buy tickets; blockchain ledger logs transaction and ownership.
-
Ticket Transfer → Users can transfer tickets; blockchain verifies authenticity and updates ownership.
-
Redemption → Tickets scanned at entry; blockchain confirms validity and marks ticket as used.
-
Analytics & Monitoring → Admin monitors ticket usage, transfers, and event attendance.
-
Notifications → Users receive alerts for purchases, transfers, and reminders for events.
User Roles
-
User/Attendee → Purchase, transfer, and redeem tickets; receive notifications.
-
Admin/Event Organizer → Create events, issue tickets, monitor blockchain logs, handle disputes.
