Abstract
Methods and systems for blockchain token-based access control in which an access control rule sets an access condition that is satisfied if a wallet address holds one or more specified non-fungible tokens or tokens having specified attributes. To conduct in-person or on-location token-based gating, the system may employ pre-authentication of a wallet address. An identifier may be stored securely on both the system and a user device following pre-authentication. When seeking access, a user device provides identification data generated based on the identifier and the system verifies that the identification data was generated based on the identifier and, on that basis, retrieves a pre-authenticated wallet address. It then verifies using blockchain data that the wallet address holds the requisite token or tokens to satisfy the access condition.
