AniXOP
Learn the Basics of crypto markets with your own characterised set
Project Description
Anixop is a mobile-first decentralized finance (DeFi) education and simulation platform that helps users learn, understand, and experience real DeFi concepts through interactive lessons and live blockchain interactions.
The app blends education with execution, allowing users to explore topics like staking, swapping, yield farming, liquidity pools, and tokenomics — and then experiment with them using test tokens or real wallets.
Anixop’s backend service handles all blockchain interactions securely — managing wallet connections, transaction simulations, and smart contract calls — so users can focus on learning while the system ensures safe execution.
How it's Made
Anixop was built as a full-stack DeFi learning and simulation platform that connects a mobile frontend with blockchain-based smart contracts and real-time market data.
The frontend was developed using React Native, designed for smooth mobile interaction and gamified learning. It communicates with the backend via secure REST APIs to fetch user progress, educational content, and transaction data.
The backend is powered by Node.js and Express, integrating ethers.js for blockchain interaction and Hardhat for smart contract compilation, deployment, and testing. Smart contracts were written in Solidity to handle simulated DeFi activities such as swaps, staking, and yield generation.
To make the learning experience dynamic, I integrated Pyth Network’s price feeds, which provide real-time token prices and volatility data. This allowed users to visualize live DeFi market scenarios — such as price fluctuations and slippage effects — while learning.
All user progress and simulation data are stored securely in MongoDB, and Firebase Authentication is used for managing user identities.
One of the more hacky implementations was creating a hybrid simulation layer — transactions are first simulated using Pyth’s price predictions and mock tokens before being optionally executed on the Ethereum Sepolia testnet, ensuring users can safely experiment with real DeFi logic without risking assets.
