Web3 NFT Blockchain Luxury Station F

What it is

Next-gen marketplace for luxury goods. Each product is authenticated on-chain via NFT with full provenance history, ownership transfer, and anti-counterfeit verification baked into the transaction layer.

Problem

Luxury resale lacks trust. Buyers can’t verify authenticity. Sellers can’t prove provenance. Existing certification is manual, slow, and easy to forge.

How it works

  • NFT-based authentication: every listed product gets a linked NFT containing provenance metadata, ownership chain, and certification data
  • On-chain traceability: full audit trail from manufacturer to current owner
  • Immersive UX: cinematic product storytelling, dark-mode interface designed for high-end perception

Context

Incubated at Station F (Paris). Built the full technical stack and smart contract layer.
