ConsenSys Grants - Social Impact Challenge (1000 DAI)

ConsenSys Grants funds projects that meet the needs of a rapidly accelerating Ethereum ecosystem. Learn more about ConsenSys grants at grants.consensys.net

Social Impact Challenge:

Ethereum has the infrastructure built to tackle pressing social issues. Leveraging the power of Ethereum, create a solution that enables the betterment of society and/or democratizes public access to resources.

How to qualify

[ ] Projects must benefit the wider Ethereum ecosystem rather than one single entity. [ ] Projects that ship software must eventually be open-sourced under a suitable OSI approved license and must have a collaborative community governance model or a well-defined path to implementing one. [ ] Project will disqualify if a ConsenSys employee is on their team or they have previously received funding from ConsenSys.

Judging Criteria

  1. Project has sustainable life-cycle (i.e. can scale) and utilizes a well-established open source community supported framework and has multi-platform support.
  2. Team must show long term commitment in building out and seeing their project to completion.
  3. The project has not been implemented before and solves the problem presented and provides a good solution.

Prizes

  1. 1000 DAI
  2. If winning team chooses to apply for a grant their application would be fast tracked past 2 of 4 evaluation rounds.

Work has been started.

These users each claimed they can complete the work by 1 week, 5 days ago. Please review their action plans below:

1) merwane has started work.

I created a self-hosted cryptocurrency wallet server you can use to create BTC/BCH wallets and perform multiple operations such as transactions and wallets generation with a simple HTTP interface. I will implement Ethereum to it as a part of this Hackathon to make it more accessible. 2) yakkomajuri has started work.

I will build a factory contract + dApp to allow communities to easily deploy a local currency. The contract will be based on the specifications laid out on a research paper titled "Overcoming Economic Stagnation in Low-Income Communities with Programmable Money", exploring the intersection between community/local currencies and cryptocurrencies, indicating how an Ethereum-based protocol could help drastically improve efficiency and effectiveness of local currency projects. 3) masaun has started work.

I will build NFT based photos platform which is one of way to earn for people like doesn't has bank account by using their own assets. 4) thach4567 has started work.

  1. Idea

  3. Complete Project Our Project won't let you down on any feature. 5) ianphilips has started work.

  4. Research forensic evidence problem: Image tampering is a problem for the courts. Increasingly robust software allows people to make subtle changes to photos that are difficult to detect (e.g., change faces, add a gun, or remove tattoos). There are many ongoing efforts to solve this problem from the forensic end of this problem. For example, DARPA is working on challenges that address this problem from the viewpoint of inspecting images (i.e., pixels, compressed images). These algorithms do the equivalent of looking at an image to find tampering. This is a reactive solution. Early attempts at a proactive solution met with resistance. See for example the Wikipedia discussion of digital watermarking cameras (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_watermarking/). Solutions that alter images within the camera may be viewed as confidence reducing alterations. Law enforcement and the courts must be able to understand the solution before they will trust and use it.

Naive solutions involve the use of cryptographic hashing to provide proof of image integrity. However, the promulgation of these hash artifacts requires an infrastructure to ensure their proper use.

  1. Investigate use of IPFS and ethereum to create immutable hashes of the image at the time of recording. Create iOS front-end proof of concept.

  2. repo with background: https://github.com/Corroborator-Net/Corroaborator main repo with iOS app and eth recording contract: https://github.com/Corroborator-Net 6) viraja1 has started work.

Will work on app that allows unbanked / workers to send or receive eth using gmail 7) djrosenbaum has started work.

Create a dapp with a goal of democratizing journalism in a digital age 8) janmoomoo has started work.

i will build a real time decentralized poll application that can be used by anyone for data gathering,
