FluxTrail reimagines how people buy and validate tickets by leveraging blockchain for trust and flexibility. I joined the team as the Product Designer for the hackathon. My contributions spanned across the full design cycle. The goal was clear: making public transport ticketing secure, seamless, and anonymous through Algorand.

Today's transport ticketing systems suffer from centralization, inflexibility, and susceptibility to fraud, often limiting accessibility and control for users while burdening transport companies with high operational costs.

Key challenges we aimed to solve: • Tickets were easy to fake or resell without limits. • Riders had little flexibility or ownership of their tickets. • Transport companies faced high operational costs and inefficiencies. • Existing blockchain ticketing tools were designed for events, not everyday transport.

Key Features: • Smart contracts for transparent route management. • NFT-based, transferable tickets. • Instant, secure payment validation. • Burnable tickets to keep wallets organized.

FluxTrail went beyond design exploration and earned validation in the field: • Secured a winning position at the Algorand Nigeria Hackathon, with funding to further develop the idea. • Reduced fraud risk through blockchain-backed validation. • Enabled anonymous travel with no personal data collected. • Simplified admin workflows for multi-route management. • Positioned to scale across multiple cities and providers within the Algorand ecosystem.
