The Creators

Think I'm going to go for it on the @base batches buildathon. It's an idea  I've been obsessed with for years, and have built many iterations but I think miniapps might give the tight iteration loop and instant distribution to make it finally happen

Idea: UX for charitable giving

Why I'm obsessed:
- sense of connection. instead of *just* doom posting, donate some loose change and watch how it adds up with time & mindshare. hopefully helps people feel a little more empowered
- positive feedback loop. everything's full of dopamine hits to distract, why not try to reinforce a positive behavior too?

Brass tacks:
- experiment with any and all social features. this is as much about building a social norm as technology
- sponsors: "your donations have a 1.2x multiplier thanks to ___" (better UI needed, but you get the idea)
- encourage other miniapps to be "sponsors" with a % of each tx the user completes (hopefully makes users more likely to click the tx button)

A bit late to the party but feeling good about today's progress:

✅ frontend
✅ basic wallet connections
✅ approve usdc allowance
✅ database connection
✅ base batches application

Up next:

⬜️ mid-point check in
⬜️ automatically send out payments (a bit intimidated by writing this contract, wish me luck! (and send all the help you can lol))

technology ate the world and turned it into a hellscape. in search of flowers that have grown up in the cracks
