Small Grant: Mintyplex

Thank you, @Parox!

I appreciate your questions. Here are some UI designs as we’re currently undergoing conceptualization and secondary research:

  1. Cart Section: Allows users to purchase with a card or wallet through our partner, Noramp.io.

  2. Create Section: Where a creator adds important information about the digital product they’re creating.

  3. Homepage Section: What shoppers see when they land on our page.

Now, let’s delve into the development details:

Frontend:
For the frontend of our app v1, we will be hosted on AWS Amplify.

Storing Data:
Digital products, including videos, images, ebooks, courses, and product certificates, will be stored on Sia IPFS Renterd Storage. This ensures that only the creator and the actual shopper have access.

Offchain Data:
User details will be primarily stored on MongoDB.

Blockchain Certificates:
Tokenized on the Polygon chain and stored on both the Blockchain and on Sia.

On-chain Payment Contract:
On Polygon.

Wallet Authentication:
Using Thirdweb for Wallet Authentication and other account abstraction functions we need.

Purchasing Products:
Integrating Noramp.io to allow users to use their cards or coins for purchases.

Now, let’s illustrate with a story:

  • Alice, an ebook creator, connects a wallet on Mintyplex and proceeds to create a product.
  • Once done and published, the actual ebook is stored on Sia, while an On-chain ID and certificate photo are generated and stored on the Blockchain and Sia.
  • Hosting on Sia or IPFS Renterd Storage provides more private and encrypted storage compared to publicly using IPFS.
  • Bob, a shopper, sees a certificate to ensure the product is from Alice. Bob purchases with his card or wallet, and after the purchase, it’s stored on his account with a link to decrypt and access the ebook.
  • Jane, an affiliate, promotes one of Alice’s ebooks. If Bob purchases using Jane’s referral, the money is split on-chain, giving Jane a commission and sending our fee to a Mintyplex wallet, with the remaining balance going to Alice.
