Project Abstract

Please replace these instructions with a brief description of your project summarising key points (1-2 paragraphs).

If your application is a follow-up to a previous grant, please mention which one in the first line of the abstract and include a link to previous pull requests if applicable.

Grant level

  • Level 1: Up to $10,000, 2 approvals
  • Level 2: Up to $30,000, 3 approvals
  • Level 3: Unlimited, 5 approvals (for >$100k: Web3 Foundation Council approval)

Application Checklist

  • The application template has been copied and aptly renamed (project_name.md).
  • I have read the application guidelines.
  • Payment details have been provided (bank details via email or Polkadot (USDC & USDT) address in the application).
  • I am aware that, in order to receive a grant, I (and the entity I represent) have to successfully complete a KYC/KYB check.

Hi @phamdat721101 thanks for the application. I have the following initial comments:

  • Milestone 2 is missing delivery tables. Could you add these in?
  • We typically only focus on the PoC and therefore aren't able to fund gathering feedback or beta testing. Could you remove deliverable 5?
  • We don't support Solidity development, would you be willing to write them in ink! instead?

Thanks @phamdat721101 we usually require mandatory deliverables for all milestones, could you also add those in for M2 as well?

Thanks @phamdat721101 however I'm still not seeing deliverables 0a. - 0e. present in M2.

  1. Can you add these in? You can skip the Docker deliverable if it doesn't apply; also just one article for M2 is fine.

  2. We usually ask for mockups to be provided upfront for UI focused milestones, even if they are rough.

  3. For M2, its not clear to me how the notifications are being built.

  4. Curious why you want to use traditional email/password login? Seems like a wallet login would be sufficient seeing as its dealing with assets.

Thanks for the changes @phamdat721101 I'm still not seeing that the M2 Market News section has been elaborated upon. That being said, I will go ahead and mark your application as ready for review.

But I'm personally not convinced about it seeing as you list only EVM DeFi protocols in the tech stack and your team doesn't have much Rust/ink! expertise. Also this is a DeFi focused app that could be more appropriately funded via a VC or one of the DeFi parachain grant programs or even a community treasury, given the social aspect of it.

Therefore I won't personally approve it but I will open it up for other committee members to comment.

Thank you for your application, @phamdat721101. I agree with @keeganquigley that it's missing some technical details. See the questions below. That being said, it might make more sense to focus on a few of these deliverables, as this is a technical grants program and many of the deliverables you list are not reusable or useful to the ecosystem by themselves.

  • What parachains are you planning to deploy this on?
  • Do you have experience with ink! and Substrate?
  • "Connect with relevant APIs", "Notifications can be sent to users", "Implement real-time communication" - these are too vague to be useful or properly evaluated.


Key Achievements:

**Blockchain Integration:** Smart contracts have been deployed to testnet, providing users with transparent and tamper-resistant asset management.

Which testnet is this? Can you share the addresses?

1 - DigiTrust targets to deploy on Statemint parachain
2 - We are starting to work with Ink! and Substrate now, and we will migrate system from solidity base
3 - These are extra features in the second milestone, and we will explain more detail after having traffic from first-version for building portfolio management
4 - DigiTrust is deployed in Klaytn-testnet : 0xa39c2b7957496d28cd6b3fd005b4a1584abe0c30

Thanks for the application. But why do you need to "Integrate blockchain technology" to track portfolio data? For this kind of solution no smart contract or anything similar should be needed, at least if the portfolio is based on digital assets. What kind of smart contracts have you deployed as part of your MVP?

Hi, DigiTrust target to track portfolio data as the post content for decentralized social network feature, which can support investors or managers to share their performance,
We already deployed test-version in Klaytn-testnet in 0xa39c2b7957496d28cd6b3fd005b4a1584abe0c30

Hi @phamdat721101 thank you for all the time and effort you put into the application and for your communication during the process.

Unfortunately, the committee unanimously decided today not to move forward with the application. This is mainly due to the concerns listed above. Since you already have all the smart contracts built and it is meant to integrate with popular EVM DeFi apps, it might make more sense to migrate the contracts to an EVM-compatible chain like Moonbeam or Astar instead of re-writing them all.

Either way, I appreciate your interest in the W3F grants program and wish you the best of luck in finding funding.
