Base Cards

BaseCards is a platform that allows users to create and send digital gift cards directly through Farcaster frames. Built on the Base network and leveraging Pyth for secure random number generation, GiftCaster brings a new level of social interaction and ease to digital gifting.

1. Users interact with a Farcaster frame to initiate gift card creation.
2. They select the amount in USD, and the system uses Pyth's price oracle to determine the equivalent in cryptocurrency on Base.
3. The gift card details are stored in a smart contract on the Base network.
4. A unique claim link is generated and can be shared with the recipient.
5. Recipients visit our website to claim their gift, which transfers the specified amount to their wallet on Base.
6. The gift amount is adjusted in real-time using Pyth's price feeds to ensure accurate value transfer.
