E39: Solving Restaurant Loyalty Challenges with Blockchain and DISGO
Episode Summary:
In this episode of the ATX DAO Podcast, Luke and Ash sit down with Lynette Ban, co-founder of DISGO, to explore how blockchain is revolutionizing loyalty programs for the restaurant industry. Lynette shares how her background in hospitality and early exposure to blockchain at Cornell University inspired her to create DISGO, a platform that uses NFTs and blockchain to enable seamless, user-friendly loyalty solutions.
The discussion highlights how DISGO tackles traditional loyalty challenges with word-of-mouth incentives, transparent data tracking, and interoperable rewards. Lynette also reflects on her experience in the Avalanche Codebase program, which helped refine DISGO’s vision and strategy, as well as her participation in the ATX DAO pitch competition.
