Worldwide badge coverage for Poland, grouped into seeded badges, event editions, add-ons, operational issues, resources, and evidence sources.
Seeded artifacts
Planned general-admission conference identity artifact
BSides Kraków's official 2026 ticket page lists an Exclusive badge with its free General Admission and AGH Student passes. The agenda says attendees check in and get a badge, bag, and available gadgets, but neither source identifies material, artwork, barcode/QR/RFID/NFC, electronic form, technical behavior, production, or actual pickup/delivery.
Planned donation-pass conference identity artifact
BSides Kraków's official 2026 ticket page lists an Exclusive donator badge with its 1 zł Donation pass, unlike the Exclusive badge listed for free General Admission and AGH Student passes. The source establishes a separately named planned tier artifact only; it does not establish whether its physical or technical form differs from the general badge, nor its material, artwork, electronics, allocation, or actual pickup/delivery.
ESP32-C6 hackable badge and Badge Hub for CONFidence
An official electronic badge for CONFidence 2026 in Krakow, documented as a hackable ESP32-C6 platform with OLED display, I2S audio amplifier, six navigation buttons, rechargeable LiPo power, firmware challenges, an 8-pin expansion port, and a live Badge Hub for MicroPython packages and community mods.
Polish conference-floor identity badge
A conservative x33fcon 2026 identity-artifact record: the official conference page documents the June 11-12, 2026 Gdynia edition and currently says registration is closed at full capacity, while the terms require all people on the conference floor to have a visible badge at all times. The official afterparty instructions separately tell attendees to bring a physical x33fcon ID or ticket to enter either venue.
Events
The planned September 26, 2026 Security BSides Kraków conference at Informatyki, AGH in Kraków. Its official ticket page lists an Exclusive badge for General Admission and AGH Student passes and an Exclusive donator badge for the 1 zł Donation pass; the same agenda describes badge collection at registration, but publishes no physical, electronic, allocation, or delivery specification.
The May 25-26, 2026 CONFidence cybersecurity conference in Krakow, whose official badge site documents the hackable electronic ConfiBadge with ESP32-C6, OLED, audio, controls, expansion hardware, Badge Hub, and media/showcase context.
The June 11-12, 2026 x33fcon edition in Gdynia, Poland, whose public conference and terms pages document a hybrid red-team/blue-team security conference and a conference-floor badge requirement.
Lifecycle
The hardware page lists a MAX98357AETE+T I2S amplifier and onboard speaker as the badge's audio path.
The badge is documented with a 128x64 SH1106-driver OLED and six navigation buttons for direct interaction.
The official conference page documents the on-site Gdynia and online split, plus the event registration path used to establish access before any physical floor-badge claim.
The badge page describes an 8-pin expansion header exposing GPIO for custom daughterboards and mods.
The official terms require every person on the conference floor to have a visible badge at all times and prohibit access by unbadged guests.
The official media page points to a main showcase video and making-of material for the ConfiBadge 2026.
The hardware page lists ESP32-C6-WROOM-1-N8 with Wi-Fi 6, BLE 5, and Zigbee/Thread as the badge's core SoC.
The June 11 schedule says attendees must bring a physical x33fcon ID or ticket to get into either listed afterparty venue. This proves a physical access credential but does not identify its design or electronic behavior.
The pinout page lists button GPIOs, OLED I2C pins, I2S/audio labels, and userport GPIOs for badge hacking, with the exact table kept as documentation rather than a schematic or PCB archive.
The public agenda says attendees arrive and check in to get their badge, bag, and available gadgets. That is a future registration workflow statement, not proof that an artifact has been produced, collected, or delivered.
The official ticket page lists an Exclusive donator badge with the 1 zł Donation pass. It does not state whether the named form differs physically or technically from the general Exclusive badge or establish production, allocation, or completed handoff.
The official ticket page lists an Exclusive badge with the free General Admission and AGH Student passes. It does not identify the artifact's material, physical form, technology, quantity, maker, production status, recipient ledger, or completed handoff.
The badge home page invites attendees to explore firmware, write code, use onboard peripherals, and discover hidden features and challenges.
The official Badge Hub page says ConfiBadge 2026 software, MicroPython libraries, example apps, and community-contributed mods live in the hub.
Operational history
The record keeps the electronic badge separate from ordinary conference-ID logistics and does not assume every ticket tier receives the ConfiBadge unless distribution details are explicit.
The catalogue preserves the documented ticket-tier naming distinction without inventing a physical/technical variant, exclusive benefit, allocation result, or completed handoff.
The catalogue records x33fcon 2026 as an identity-artifact badge and avoids any electronic-badge claim.
The Poland record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.

The Poland record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.
The Poland badge record remains image-free rather than copying site imagery without explicit reuse rights.
The catalogue records the pinout as a hacking reference while avoiding manufacturing-grade claims until final design files appear.
The record remains a planned identity artifact rather than an inferred electronic badge or a more specific physical credential unsupported by the official wording.
The record remains a planned identity artifact rather than an inferred electronic badge or a more specific physical credential unsupported by the official wording.
Hardware claims stay limited to the official component list and pinout table, and software claims stay limited to the official Badge Hub, package-hub, and stated firmware/challenge goals.
The record can document the software hub without overstating it as a full production archive.
Fields stay limited to event context, visible-badge and physical-ID-or-ticket access control, and image-free provenance until stronger sources are recovered.
The catalogue records the advertised planned inclusion without treating it as proof that a particular attendee will receive or has received a badge.
