We've built the frontend in SquareSpace, Jotform and Zapier. This calls a backend which completes the buy / sell / negotiate transaction on the blockchain. The integration isn't fully connected at this stage.
the purpose was to create a chain that has value in provenance, trackability, traceability but also trading data on a chain. this could potentially be used for multiple use cases such as eliminating a valuator in the future.
Inspiration
the inspiration was the most of the time a product gets sold - the origin and the owner is sometimes hard to determine or cannot be verified. Furthermore, though selling platform do not utilise blockchain, it is important for art works, and valuable products to know their provenance. Our inspiration was to create a provenance blockchain this allows tracebility and trackability
What it does
We created a wireframe of a selling platform in which people can bid (giving useful history on bids, owner ids and interest that can be used in the future to accurately determine price) but also traceability in ownership as non owners of products cannot sell the product if not the owner registered
How we built it
we utilised NEAR protocol as the blockchain and the selling platform is low code/no code
Challenges we ran into
Understanding the near protocol and integration points. Whilst the front end and backend were built we didn't fully integrate the two.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Actually learning how to do things on the near protocol
What we learned
Have fun in learning :)
