Please describe your proposed solution

Problem: Despite the significant Total Value Locked (TVL) across Cardano's ecosystem smart contracts, there is a noticeable absence of applications that effectively help users comprehend and manage their assets.

Approach: Our approach is based on several key points:

- User Experience: We prioritize a simple interface, enabling users to effortlessly view all their assets across various DApps on a single screen.

- Security and Transparency: We understand the critical importance of blockchain security. Our application only requires users to provide their public address, ensuring their information remains secure.

- Development of the Cardano Ecosystem: With the increasing diversity of investment opportunities on Cardano, our application focuses on delivering genuine value. By enhancing the visual intuitiveness of assets, we aim to broaden investment opportunities.

Major Features:

- We aggregate all assets and gather comprehensive information on smart contracts from popular DApps.

- Utilizing on-chain transaction monitoring, we create a local version and analyze data provided by DApps. This analysis enables us to retrieve information about locked assets that users have invested in specific DApps.

Audience: Investors will greatly benefit from our application. It provides users with an overview of their assets, including borrowed funds, reward assets, and actual asset values. As the range of investment opportunities on Cardano continues to expand, an application like Nio becomes increasingly indispensable.

Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community

NioApp is an investment portfolio management tool that allows you to easily track the Total Value Locked (TVL) of various DApps on Cardano.

We identified the need for such a tool after using several other asset management tools and finding that they only track assets held in wallets, leading to inaccuracies in reporting assets locked in investments. With this feature, every user in the Cardano community can have a more comprehensive view of their entire asset portfolio.

We will measure value for the Cardano community by:

Qualitatively:

• User feedback: Continuous feedback from the community regarding throughput, features, and user experience will be collected and utilized for improvement. Direct feedback on the app and social media platforms like Twitter & Discord.
• Total number of app visits/sessions.
• Engagement on our social media channels Twitter & Discord. We will use metrics like Likes/Shares/Retweets to gauge success on Twitter and interaction on Discord.
• Users/Investors have a comprehensive view of the DApps or Tokens they are tracking/investing in.

Long-term:

As the Cardano ecosystem continues to evolve, there will be more tools and alternative investment forms that the community can utilize. Our application remains capable of expanding to support the community.

In summary, its long-term impact ensures that the Cardano ecosystem continues to grow, support more DApps, features, and investment options for users.
