Bounty Details

Description

This rust canister allows motoko canister to query it with data to receive EVM compliant transactions that can be signed via t-ECDSA and submitted to EVM networks.

This bounty gives the opportunity to

Motoko currently is missing a number of libraries needed to encode, interpret, and sign evm transactions and data. Rust has most of these libraries and many of them have been used in the rust No Key Wallet project. Until these libraries are converted to motoko, it would be nice to have a utility canister that does most of this work for a motoko canister. This will involve async communication and may incur long transaction times, but it will at least let motoko devs get started with EVM based transactions while those motoko libraries are being developed.

To apply for this bounty you should:

Selection Process

The ICDevs.org developer's advisors will propose a vote to award the bounty and the Developer Advisors will vote.

Bounty Completion

Please keep your ongoing code in a public repository(fork or branch is ok). Please provide regular (at least weekly) updates. Code commits count as updates if you link to your branch/fork from the bounty thread. We just need to be able to see that you are making progress.

The balance of the bounty will be paid out at completion.

Once you have finished, please alert the dev forum thread that you have completed work and where we can find that work. We will review and award the bounty reward if the terms have been met. If there is any coordination work(like a pull request) or additional documentation needed we will inform you of what is needed before we can award the reward.

Bounty Abandonment and Re-awarding

If you cease work on the bounty for a prolonged(at the Developer Advisory Board's discretion) or if the quality of work degrades to the point that we think someone else should be working on the bounty we may re-award it. We will be transparent about this and try to work with you to push through and complete the project, but sometimes, it may be necessary to move on or to augment your contribution with another resource which would result in a split bounty.
