Scaffold-NFT

Scaffold-NFT will be a fork of SE2 which seeks to make the development of NFT projects as easy and intuitive as SE2 does for general smart contracts. Of course, Scaffold-NFT will laser in NFT development by providing template NFT smart contracts for ERC721, ERC115, dn404, and other NFT-like styles. Additionally, the frontend development side of the project will contain useful components to, again easily and intuitively, interact with NFT smart contracts and display the data retrieved from them. Finally, someone should be able to use the website to upload to IPFS, by integrating the nft.storage api. The combination of all of these factors will make it so that the developer can go through the entire processes of building, testing, and deploying, their NFT projects quickly and easily customize them to fit their project's requirements. Alongside, having a handy framework on the frontend for rendering NFT data and intuitive controls for the user. Thank you very much for your consideration. Jacob Homanics

Mafia Card Game

Mafia is a cool card game, which can be played in 4 players minimum, and can be extended to a lot of players! What is really cool about Mafia game is that you don't actually need cards to play it and having a chat with a lobby is enough to start the game running. Why this game on web3? 1. DAO - each player has to vote to eliminate the villain 2. Secrecy - every player's identity is hidden 3. Communication - all players need to communicate using channels (assassins, police, doctors, quorum) 4. Stake - a game is not that fun and competitive without prizes

SoundChain

SoundCloud on chain. Soundcloud started as a musician-first platform for indie artists trying to gain a following. Then it became popular and sold out (I don't blame them!) Now, Web3 is positioned to reshape the landscape but still hasn't gripped the mind of the average person. So I ask, what is the one thing that everyone on this planet likes? Music! It's the perfect tool for capturing the imagination of people who otherwise wouldn't give crypto a second thought. I want to build a basic prototype to leverage IPFS and share music on chain, completely circumventing a notoriously predatory music industry, and guaranteeing ownership for creators. Isn't that the true spirit of Web3?

AuthFusion

This project is aimed to bridge the auth process between web 2 and 3. This is a project in which the users can generate an NFT for their gmail, here only one NFT can be minted per gmail account. The users can only generate their NFT if they have connected their wallet and have also done their auth process for the selected gmail. After successful auth process the user can then use that NFT for verification in the web2 just using the existing wallet address. This binding of gmail could give the wallet address an additional layer of authenticity. This approach can unite the web2 and web3 identity of an individual in an easier manner. This could be extended for other socials as well.

Insurance policy

I would like to make an app whose objective is to ensure a farmer against the weather, specifically rain conditions. And the contract would be made for soyabeans at the begining. But in the future could be expanded for other kind of crops. So, the idea is that the farmer pays a fee before the campaign starts (so, before a deadline). Afterwards, when the campaign ends, we entered the mm of water falled in that campaign. If the mm of water exceeds or is under the adviceable level for the soyabean, the farmer get an amount of money. Otherwise, the farmer get nothing, like any insurance works. To me is a nice project to start, and I would keep it simple at the begining but could be expanded in the future. Thanks! Hugo.

Airline System

Hello, I am considering creating an airplane ticket purchasing site. Users will be able to search for tickets based on the information they select. They can also choose extras like additional baggage allowance and in-flight entertainment systems when purchasing tickets. Purchased tickets will be visible in the "my flights" section. Users will have the option to cancel their flights if they wish. Now we come to the best part :) . Users will be able to check in for their flights one day before departure. They will see a seat map screen and can select their preferred seat. This project, in general, will be one of the most detailed projects ever done in "bg grants." Thank you for reading. I am excited to see if I get approved.

BitTip: Crypto Platform for Direct Creator Support

A crypto alternative for BuyMeCoffee. The idea is to have a web page with creator's QR codes in one place. Somewhat like punkwallet.io. Users connect their wallet to our app and click "Tip" the creator. Why would anyone use it when anyone send ETH directly to addresses written in plain text? For the same reason that BuyMeCoffee or Ko-Fi exists - user experience. A lot of plain text doesn't look good, but a creator's web page is much better. Creators can customize their profiles to make it more visually appealing. Users can either directly send crypto to someones QR or tap a button. If they do tap the "Tip" button then the contract takes a small fee of the transaction. I have a smart contract for that, can be improved of course: https://github.com/Paul-Sizon/BitTip/blob/bittip/packages/hardhat/contracts/BitTipContract.sol There is a starting discussion in Batch4 telegram group. There are few questions that should be considered: 1) Do creators register their wallets on chain or do they just register off chain and we pass their wallet as a parameter to the smart contract? 2) Ideally it should support other cryptocurrencies, but that falls out of MVP scope, in my opinion Thank you for considering my proposal. Let me know what you think) Cheers, Paul

Lets create a story

Hey 👋 The idea is to create a collaborative storytelling experience. It could be used for events, children or community building. Each user submits inspiration (string, keywords, etc) via a smart contract and the front end will listen to the event submitted where the users addition and the combined “inspirations” and will use an LLM to write a story and generate one or more images suitable. The idea for now is to save the generated story and media offchain. But looking at the event history we can see how the story evolves over time and give the user a way to look at previous versions of the story. I think this shared story building using the LLM as the orchestrator could be fun, and using a smart contract as the way to gather inspiration creates both something of a version history and a way to interact with credentials. Could use a whitelist perhaps? Would love input and ideas ❤️ /perstarkse batch#4 builder

Skill verification system

A lot of people claim to have a skills that they add to their resumes / profiles etc. Goal is to have a platform that allows verifiers ( peers) that verify each others skills that they post. Higher verifications get shown in the profile of the user. For example -- say I post that i can work on solidity. I will put proof of work that others can verify. I will also put the rating of the skill that i rank myself -- say 8/10. Others will verify and give their ratings. The goal is to also have the user mint a NFT of all the skills that they have and also showcasing how many people support/verify that.Lastly with all the users skill the user can mint an NFT that can be kept updating as the user adds skills and gets more verifications

Procrastination Slayer : (ProdigiKill)

A Platform to combat procrastination by leveraging pressure and incentives to motivate users to take action on their goals. By setting deadlines, providing rewards for success, and implementing consequences for failure, users are encouraged to overcome procrastination and achieve their objectives. Additionally, the platform fosters self-improvement and creativity by providing a space for idea-sharing and collaboration within the community. Details: Task Submission and Approval: Users who want to overcome procrastination submit their tasks on the platform. They set a reasonable deadline for completion, which is subject to approval by the platform members. The community members review the task and the proposed deadline to ensure they are realistic and feasible. Collateral Requirement: To commit to completing the task within the specified deadline, users must deposit 0.5 ETH as collateral. This collateral serves as a commitment to follow through on the task. Task Completion: If the task is successfully completed within the set deadline, the user receives their collateral back. Additionally, they earn extra ETH as a reward for their timely completion. The amount of extra ETH earned depends on how quickly the task was completed, incentivizing prompt action. Renewal and Extension: If a user realizes they need more time to complete the task, they can renew it by paying a small fee. This fee allows them to extend the deadline, providing flexibility while still maintaining accountability. If they fail to renew or complete the task within the extended deadline, they forfeit the collateral. Community-driven Support: The platform operates with the support and oversight of the community members. Community members play a role in approving tasks, ensuring fairness and feasibility. They also provide encouragement and support to users throughout their task completion journey. An additional section for Idea Submission and Reward: Users can submit and describe their ideas for personal or open-source projects. The best idea, determined by community likes and platform evaluation, is rewarded in ETH monthly. This incentivizes creativity and collaboration, providing users with valuable inspiration for their projects while also rewarding innovation within the community. By implementing this system, your platform provides a structured environment where individuals can overcome procrastination by setting goals, committing to deadlines, and receiving both incentives for success and consequences for failure. Additionally, users have the opportunity to share and discover ideas for personal or open-source projects. The community-driven aspect not only adds a supportive and motivational element but also fosters creativity and collaboration, enhancing the effectiveness of the platform in helping users achieve their goals and find inspiration for their next endeavors.

savvy

An interface for the EVM in the browser, to simulate and visualize your onchain activity, with special emphasis on the costs associated with it. Think ~ Etherscan + Remix + Foundry. Basically, it's a way to interact with a forked EVM chain, in a local-first environment, with a comprehensive set of actions/hacks/utilities exposed by Tevm—which is doing all the heavy lifting. The state of each chain is the initial fork + all the local transactions, which are displayed in the history with all the details (data, errors, logs, inputs...). And also, and that's one of the main points of savvy, details on the gas usage of each transaction (fee, L1 submission fee if relevant...). You can think of it as a way of simulating a set of transactions, and visualizing the results, without having to actually send them to the network. With no setup (wallet, signatures, etc.), in the browser, from any account (impersonation), with any amount of native tokens. And much more to come; see https://docs.svvy.sh/progress

SE-2 Ported to Svelte

I'm an avid user of Svelte, and I believe it can be a better framework for developing for the future (Web3) if only it had a better ecosystem. I already made a basic port of Wagmi (which I'll improve in the near future) that you can find here: https://github.com/ByteAtATime/wagmi-svelte I'm hoping I can get a grant to port SE-2 to Svelte. The current main problem is that there is no RainbowKit for Svelte, but I'm hoping I can replace that with Web3Modal until I can develop a port. The reason I'm asking for a grant is because I'm developing all this open-source and in my free time, and I'm hoping I can continue to do this without having to bend to whatever a company wants me to do. (Sorry, I'm not completely fluent in English, but I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.)
