Implement Dapps connector integration for iOS and Android in Thrift Mobile wallet, boosting Cardano adoption in Africa countries like Nigeria and Ethiopia.

All the proposed objectives are technically feasible, so there are no problems blocking development.

[FEASIBILITY]

The wallet connector, which we are developing in parallel, is an indispensable part to offer interaction with existing or in-house DeFi services from mobile devices.

This is important because allow us to offer profitable and secure services from the Cardano ecosystem to Africa countries, which is out main target.

Initially, we will analyze and explore existing tools and libraries, then choose the ones that best suit our needs, for haskell/plutus and mobile sides.

The Plutus development will be led by a haskell expert, in tune with the management of Thrift Finance manager, who will provide public progress reports.

At the same time, the client side will be developed, where we will work on achieving a simple but effective user experience, accessible as a multi-platform with react native.

In addition, we will use the standard yoroi library to work on building transactions with Alonzo era capabilities.

By achieving the proposed objectives, we will be able to differentiate the wallet with services accessible to everyone from the smartphones.

• Lending services.

• Stable coins.

• Vaults.

• Liquidity.

Hiring: we are looking for new Haskell and Plutus developers, and at the same time we are agreeing developments with expert Haskell/Plutus labs already involved in Cardano.

[AUDITABILITY]

KPIs (Key Performance Indicators):

- Design easy to use UX for DeFi service interaction. Figma.

- Implement design from Figma and integrate to react native app.

- PAB: Complete off-chain code with unit tests.

- Setup and deploy PAB endpoints.

- Implement Alonzo scripts serialization with Yoroi libs.

- End2End 'Send' script transaction(Just ada).

- End2End 'Send' script transaction(with native token).

- End2End 'Receive' script transaction.

Tracking of project progress and KPIs will be publicly reported every two weeks to Catalyst organizers and the rest of the community through our social media channels.

The proposal is considered completed when all KPIs have been satisfactorily completed, before the time frame of 6 months and the wallet is available for download in the detailed mobile platforms.

This is a new proposal.
