ETHNewYork 2022

Project Description

BLNDR gives users the ability to control how, when, and to whom they share their personal data in a privacy-focused manner. BLNDR eliminates "catfishing" for good by providing a decentralized alternative to Tinder, Grindr, and other modern dating platforms by allowing its users to. This is achieved by implementing our “Proof-of-Interest'' (POI) protocol.

How it's Made

BLNDR combines the technologies of WalletConnect, Filecoin, IPFS, and EPNS to present the first decentralized application for personal connections. Users sign up by connecting their wallet and staking a small amount BLNDR’s native ERC20 token, $BLND. Once staked, they are then guided through the profile setup process consisting of a single question: “What interests you?” After completing the setup, users will be able to upload a profile picture, which will appear to other users as a pixelated image. Users are then matched based on their common interests. When a user comes across a profile and image that appeals to them, they can apply tap "BLEND" to connect with the other person in real-time.
