Inspiration

If a user wanted to sell his data, he usually goes for web2 solutions like gumroad which charges huge platform fee and also data ownership rights are not properly defined. We aimed to create a solution for this. Using SxT we can store all the data on-chain preserving data rights while also allowing the creator to sell his data in a encrypted way with Lighthouse.

What it does

Be it a collection of animated gif or a book series, users on this platform can have their customized pages to sell data. Data is encrypted by the uploaders signature and can only be decrypted when the other user buys the data file. This way, data sellers (be it of any kind) would be easily able to reach their audience.

How we built it

With the help of Space and time, we created 2 tables, one of which stores the users info and the other one stores log of all uploaded data. On the unique uploaders page, all the data files matching uploaders username are shown which can be purchased by the buyers. Using Chainlink, we are making price conversion and purchase with different types tokens possible.

Challenges we ran into

As Space and time was currently under beta phase and has more support for python, it had been extremely difficult for us to work with it on Next.js. We somehow managed to get the SDK working.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were able to make a complete platform utilising Space and Time's core function, all within the hackathon's timeframe.

What we learned

We learned a lot in the process. We learned how to create our own sdk, and how to work with the limited resources

What's next for Blavo

If we are able to recieve some help from the team, we can move forward with the project to production. This will make a file marketplace, where anyone can sell form of digital files to their audience.
