Why It Mattered

It preserves the official post-pandemic Congress badge meaning without inventing physical electronics: by 37C3, the public source trail proves a Hub-based digital/community badge layer rather than a DEF CON-style official hardware badge.

Hardware

No physical or electronic badge hardware is claimed. The artifact is a web/Hub badge collection tied to assemblies, projects, and event participation.

Software & Apps

The archived Hub Badges page lists assembly-created badge names and says redemption is no longer available because the website has been archived, documenting a live-event digital badge redemption workflow.

Lore

Examples include programming-skill badges from Robot programming for kids, Chaos Tokens from Geheimorganisation, assembly visitor badges, C3choc badges, and other community achievements visible through the official event Hub.

Issues & Camp Impact

archive-state caveat note

The archived page says the redeem badge function is no longer available after the website was archived.

The badge workflow is historical; live redemption behavior should not be inferred from the archived page.

Confidence: official archived Hub page
Status: documented
Timeframe: post-event archive
Source note: 37C3 Hub Badges page.

digital badge classification note

The source describes Hub badges created by assemblies and found during the event, not physical or electronic admission badges.

The catalogue models this as an official digital/community badge system and avoids hardware claims.

Confidence: official Hub page
Status: documented
Timeframe: 37C3
Source note: 37C3 Hub Badges page.

missing rights-cleared image note

No 37C3 Hub badge image is published because the recovered page is a text-heavy archived catalogue and no reusable badge artwork or screenshot provenance has been cleared.

The record stays image-free rather than copying archived UI screenshots, logos, or unknown-rights badge icons.

Confidence: local project policy
Status: needs licensed original replacement
Timeframe: current catalogue build
Source note: badge.gallery image policy and 37C3 Hub Badges page.
