Wala empowers your communities by covering their gas fees through prepaid gift cards
Our web3 application is designed to revolutionize the user onboarding experience in the crypto space. As the world embraces the power of blockchain technology, we understand the complexity and technicality often pose barriers to newcomers. We aim to tackle this challenge head-on, transforming the way crypto-curious individuals venture into this exciting domain.
Our platform offers an intuitive and seamless onboarding process, reminiscent of familiar web2 interfaces. Users can conveniently log in using their preferred wallet or opt for a social login, thus eliminating intimidating technical hurdles right at the doorstep.
Once logged in, users are welcomed with a unique gift - an ERC-1155 NFT, representing a gift card. This isn't just a warm welcome; it's an introduction to the thrilling world of non-fungible tokens, offered in a friendly and accessible manner.
But the innovation doesn't stop there. We know gas fees can be a deterrent for many users, especially those just starting their crypto journey. That's why our gift card utilizes a paymaster, performing transactions on behalf of the user without the need for gas fees.
The adventure continues in our carefully curated marketplace. Here, users can explore verified applications, each offering a range of exciting actions. Whether it's buying crypto, minting NFTs, swapping tokens, or collecting POAPs, our marketplace is a treasure trove of blockchain activities.
In essence, our web3 application is more than a platform; it's a gateway to the world of crypto, designed to educate, engage, and excite. We're breaking down barriers and simplifying complexities, making the crypto world accessible to everyone, one login at a time!
The project uses Biconomy's paymaster to do a lot of the nitty gritty work to help pay for gas fees. It also greatly improves the login experience for non-native web3 users allowing them to sign up easily using their email address, similarly to how they are used to.
We used XMTP to help broadcast announcements to user's in a gift card group, and allow for them to communicate with each other.
WalletConnect allows users with an existing wallet to login with their wallet of choice.
NounsDAO was used to make the UI fun and interesting to look at.
We created a NFT contract in Polygon zkEVM, Polygon, as well as goerli that will be used as the gift cards for the users to pay for gas fees.
These are all pieced together on our nextjs web application.
