People
The official info page identifies CCC and volunteers as Congress organizers; the Hub page is the public badge catalogue.
SourceThe Hub page says assemblies created badges that visitors could find during the event.
SourceIt records a major official Congress badge surface that is easy to confuse with hardware badgelife: 38C3 had a large public badge catalogue, but the recovered evidence identifies Hub/community badges rather than a shipped electronic admission artifact.
No physical or electronic badge hardware is claimed. The public artifact is a Hub-managed digital badge catalogue associated with assemblies and visitor interactions.
The archived 38C3 Hub page says assemblies could create badges in the backoffice and that users could redeem badges during the event; after archival, the redeem function is disabled.
The catalogue includes visitor and assembly badges such as 38c3 - Du warst dabei!, Assembly Visitor, Badge Hacking-adjacent community achievements, Chaos Post, Church of Cryptography, Kidspace, RPG Assembly, and Hub Team badges.
Lifecycle
The 38C3 Hub page states that assemblies could create new badges in the backoffice and that the redeem function is disabled after archival.
SourceThe 38C3 Hub page groups badges into categories such as General, Exploration, and Help while listing assembly and community badge names.
SourceOperational history
The badge workflow is historical; live redemption behavior should not be inferred from the archived page.
The catalogue models this as an official digital/community badge system and avoids hardware claims.
The record stays image-free rather than copying archived UI screenshots, logos, or unknown-rights badge icons.
