1. What is your project? (max 100 words)

Trust Finance is a building a public good Defi tool that aims to onboard the next billion users into crypto by providing simple and real-time payroll payments, benefits, and accounting for DAOs/businesses to compensate, ensure improved operations, and attract top talents. Trust Finance application seamlessly integrates with storage features such as ipfs, web3.storage that enable crypto businesses, DAO, and NFT projects to save time and cost and reduce complexity in managing talents and operations on Polygon. We are reducing the frictions that businesses encounter when making payroll payments to freelancers and DAO contributors. Additionally, it is time-consuming for businesses to keep track of transactions and ensure proper accounting and compliance.

Hi @quadriproduct, thank you for your patience as we proceed with our final review. I didn't see IPFS/related tech in the current code, is this being incorporated in your next steps? If so, can you briefly describe? Many thanks!

quadriproduct commented 2 years ago

Hello ErinOcon,

Yes, this is currently being implemented in the next steps. We were not able to complete it during the Hackathon.

Regards,

Quadri.

Thank you for your patience with our review. Unfortunately, we will not be able to proceed with a grant at this time as this program is intended to support projects that are actively using our tech in their prototype. Please feel welcome to reapply as you make additional progress!
