Nobody Cares It’s Blockchain: How Lugano Made Digital Tokens Mainstream
summary
City of Lugano runs MyLugano, a React Native app tied to a private EVM fork called 3A chain (EVM fork, proof-of-authority), with a municipality-controlled, upgradable luga token pegged 1 CHF = 100 lugas used at 487 local merchants; the system records ~880,000 transactions/year with peaks of 15,000, and distributed 100,000 CHF in lugas during campaigns. Architecture uses oracles and a sync layer to push notifications, smart contracts visible on an explorer, NFT ticketing with rotating QR every 5–6s, AI for UX/chatbot, and cashback 5–10%.
