Solution

We will design an API allowing developers to integrate payment via ADA cryptocurrency into their achievements in addition to mobile money from the DRC and make conversions.

Problem:

So far no cryptocurrency offers a conversion to mobile money from the DRC

In the Congolese market, no cryptocurrency is used on the same footing as the mobile money of the place.

[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

How our project will be implemented This project will be implemented in 8 stages: Step 1: API architecture design. Step 2: Design of the mail server intended for it. Step 3: Implementation of all the functions (services) associated with the API. Step 4: Design of the associated mobile application. Step 5: Performing the tests. Step 6: Final patch application Step 7: deployment of the platform. Step 8: Popularization of the platform through sponsored advertisements. What we will produce We are going to produce an API and a mobile application will be associated with it to respond to our problem. The API will allow developers to integrate a payment system via ADA cryptocurrency into their achievements in addition to mobile money from the DRC. The mobile application meanwhile, will allow any Congolese who would like to do the vice-versa conversion of ADA and local electronic money (the mobile money of the DRC). What will happen as a result of our work At the end of our work, the API will be available to developers and the mobile application will be available in play store and app store What is unique about our project The singularity of our project finds its meaning in the fact that it will be the only one for the moment to offer this portal to developers. What value our project brings to the Cardano ecosystem Since our project meets a present and important need in our country, the success of this project will bring a large number of developers to interact with our API, that is, to interact with the Cardano blockchain. All of these important interactions will contribute to the development of the Cardano ecosystem. Who are the beneficiaries of our project First the Cardano ecosystem, then the community of developers working in the DRC and then our startup NeuroHub. We are a Congolese startup working in technology and we make sure that our technology contributes to the development of our community. There is no doubt that the success of this project would impact our community, hence our greatest satisfaction.

[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.

For awesome experience to increase developer adoption, productivity and creativity. Our project will offer an easy-to-use API with an associated user manual. Its simplified use will lead developers to adopt it, because they will understand that they will focus much more on the implementation of their product than on the use of our API. Hence productivity and creativity comes from either.

[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?

There is no risk that would lead us not to carry out our project.

[FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed plan, including timeline and key milestones for delivering your proposal.

[FEASIBILITY] If you are funded, will you return to Catalyst in a later round for further funding? Please explain why / why not.

At the moment we are not really sure. Maybe we'll find out later.

[AUDITABILITY] Please describe what you will measure to track your project's progress, and how will you measure these?

To monitor the progress of our project we will measure the tasks performed. The tasks performed will be measured by unit tests.

[AUDITABILITY] What does success for this project look like?

The success of this project will firstly have a positive impact on the community of developers working in the DRC developing E-Commerce solutions in the sense that finally the solutions developed will allow each Congolese to make purchases with the ADA cryptocurrency in addition to mobile money from the square. . And then the success of this project will open the Congolese to a new era of online sales and purchases. Later than ever the Congolese could finally be able to convert the money from his mobile money wallet into ADA to finally make a purchase on any site in the world that offers it. . Finally, the success of this project will impact the Cardano ecosystem in the sense that its cryptocurrency will be widely used on the Congolese market like local electronic money.

[AUDITABILITY] Please provide information on whether this proposal is a continuation of a previously funded project in Catalyst or an entirely new one.

This is a completely new project.
