Blockchain Life Awards 2022

The winners of Blockchain Life Awards, the most prominent awards in blockchain, crypto and mining around CIS and Europe, were chosen with WE.Vote e-voting service.

The Task

Blockchain Life is the biggest blockchain, crypto and mining forum in CIS and Europe. In April 2022 this event accumulated more than 5000 visitors and 100 exhibitors. One of the key forum events is Blockchain Life Awards, where the winners are chosen during an open voting.

Previously the voting was a simple poll on the forum website. Anyone could make a choice after Facebook authorization. In 2022 the forum decided to move the voting to blockchain.

The Solution

WE.Vote blockchain service for online voting already proved itself in many different projects, including other awards, and that’s why it was chosen for Blockchain Life Awards 2022 as well.

For Blockchain Life Awards 2022 extra authorization options were added to WE.Vote. Earlier a user could authorize via his email or telephone number. The organizers of Blockchain Life forum weren’t satisfied with both options. So we’ve provided this voting with authorization via Telegram bot. The solution is using today’s popular communication channels, which is important for a technological forum. Also, it requires no extra fee for SMS services.

The voting preparation took a month overall, including voting portal development. The voting took place on April, 5–15, and then the organizers received a detailed report about each of the 7 nominations.

Blockchain Life Awards in autumn 2022 became the biggest e-voting to be based on WE.Vote within Waves Enterprise mainnet. The audience has tripled, compared to the spring voting.

Thanks to Waves Enterprise, this year’s Blockchain Life Awards truly followed basic blockchain values — decentralization, security and anonymity. Thousands of people have chosen the best companies in industry and supported its further development
