Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer storage media are provided for minting non-fungible tokens (NFTs) using one or more location verification devices. For example, a request to mint an NFT may be received from a user device. In embodiments, the request includes an event identifier associated with an event (e.g., a sporting event) and an event location. A public blockchain address can be identified based on the request to mint the NFT. Using location verification data associated with the location verification device, a location of the user device can be verified. For example, location verification data can be associated with at least one signal received from the user device. In some embodiments, the location verification data also corresponds to a user device communication with a base station. Accordingly, the NFT can be minted based on the public blockchain address and verifying the location of the user device.
