Evento is an open-source events platform for coordinating communities and economic activity, with a self-custodial Bitcoin wallet. Hosts can protect events with passwords, use custom registration forms, approve RSVPs and remove guests. They can organize nested sub-events, manage co-hosts, import guests by CSV, message attendees, and send and track email campaigns. Profiles include bios, interests, prompts, follows and displayed Lightning Addresses; the Events Hub gathers followed events, invitations, co-host requests and a curated feed. The wallet sends and receives Bitcoin over Lightning and on-chain. Hosts can accept Lightning payments for paid events by entering a price and Lightning Address in settings; Evento says payments are peer-to-peer and it takes no cut. The wallet is built on Breez and Spark, supports spending through Bitrefill and offers access to services to buy and sell Bitcoin. Developers can use a read-only Public API or a no-auth Embed API; public API keys are limited to 1,000 requests per day. The free event service is available on web, iOS, Android and API.

Who it is for

Evento suits people who lead communities and organize meetups, conference satellite events, hackathons, workshops or community spaces. It can also suit hosts who want event registration and Bitcoin Lightning payments in one platform.

What is good

  • Free to use for events and open source.
  • Supports custom registration forms and RSVP approvals.
  • Hosts can create nested sub-events and manage co-hosts.
  • Self-custodial wallet supports Lightning and on-chain Bitcoin.
  • Offers both event data and embed APIs.

What to know first

  • Public API keys are limited to 1,000 requests per day.
  • MFA for sensitive actions and SMS verification are upcoming, not current features.

Verdict

Evento combines event hosting, community features and a self-custodial Bitcoin wallet without charging for event use. Its event tools are broad, while API users should account for the daily request limit and the listed security roadmap items.
