Project Description

We have created a product suite for Web3 events which will help organizers in streamlining their process and underneath it all, each participant of the product will be doing public goods.

Let me explain how, all the NFTickets for the event will be bought through primary/secondary sales, 10% of every sale will be collected in a pool which will be later used in the event for quadratic funding amongst the local Social Impact Organizations locally and each and every participant who joined the events have played a part in it (by contributing a small % to the pool).

Because we are focusing on public good in the products we have chosen Optimism as our choice of blockchain because of the vibes and culture which are matched in the public good sector.

The next product is taking a chance at solving the Telegram problem in web3 events, so many people meet each other so many photos are clicked and shared on telegram just for the sake if we need to connect we remember each other.

The way we are solving this is using a product called Moments, If 2 people met during an event they click a photo ( as usual ) but instead of sharing of the telegram, they upload the image and add both ENS/UD (this act as a tagging feature) & now both wallet will be airdropped 1 edition of the image which was uploaded. So a user can create moments by tagging others or get tagged in a moment. All of the wallets with which a user is tagged they have the ability to chat with them using XMTP, when they go to the chat now section they will be able to see all the wallets they have created a moment with and can chat with them using XMTP (and if a user is not on XMTP they can invite them which will send them a notification using EPNS to join the network).

This solves the telegram problem and the IP problem if thought on the scale now each and every moment a person clicks can be owned by them by minting them as NFT instantly gasless and if anytime in the future those moments get sold/traded a % of the sale will be distributed to SIO.

How it's Made

We have used Tableland as our SQL database because of its decentralized nature all the data points for the moments game now cannot be tampered with. So an organizer cannot act like a bad actor because he/she cannot change the game data adding an extra layer of security to the whole structure.

Using EPNS for notifying users when they get tagged in a moment (meaning every time a moment is created with them they get notified ) also when a user wants to chat on XMTP and they have not initialized the chat we have an invite tab where the user gets notified to join XMTP using EPNS.

Using XMTP as the communication layer for chatting between users who have tagged them in a moment. Using XMTP and EPNS we are solving the telegram problem in events, It gets clogged with so many notifications but because our infra will be for a specific event it will not hamper their daily conversations.

Optimism being an L2 focused on the public good, all the NFTickets sold will have a 10% allocation to a pool which later will be used to do quadratic funding amongst local SIOs of the event, hence doing public good in an event will become a standard.

All of the images are stored on IPFS as a standard storage solution.
