No
[GENERAL] Please provide here more information on the open source status of your project outputs
We will build it as a not open source because we would like to have the following:
- Competitive Advantage: Keeping the solution proprietary can provide a competitive edge in the market. Our solution can differentiate itself and attract customers by offering unique features or services that are not readily available in open-source alternatives.
- Monetization Opportunities: Operating as a business, our solution allows us to pick various monetization strategies, such as subscription models, transaction fees, or licensing agreements. This can help generate revenue to sustain and grow the solution and provide ADA expansion globally.
- Control Over Development and Roadmap: Operating as a not open source provides greater control over the development roadmap and direction of the solution. This allows us to prioritize features, respond to market demands, and adapt to changes in the competitive landscape more flexibly.
- Support and Services: We can provide dedicated support, training, and customization services to customers. This enhances the overall customer experience and can be a significant value-add for businesses seeking reliable and comprehensive solutions.
- As part of our future plans and further stages, we could consider developing a specific feature or aspect of the solution to be partially open source.

[SOLUTION] Please describe your proposed solution
Our solution provides a user-friendly interface for ADA transactions, including a time-sensitive purchase process, robust validation, and automatic fiat conversion triggers. The main problem that this project aims to solve is the complexity and uncertainty surrounding cryptocurrency transactions, particularly within the Cardano ecosystem. Despite the growing popularity of cryptocurrencies, users often face challenges such as:
- Lack of user-friendly platforms for conducting transactions.
- Concerns about regulatory compliance, especially regarding identification and traceability of transactions.
- Volatility in cryptocurrency prices leads to potential financial risks for both buyers and sellers.
According to market research, more and more people would like to have the possibility to pay with crypto. Similarly, more and more businesses are exploring Web3 and crypto but have concerns about crypto volatility and the unexplored space of crypto payments. We aim to build a bridge between these two sides and mitigate all risks. Our solution aims to seamlessly integrate Cardano transactions into everyday user life while addressing regulatory compliance and market volatility concerns. We believe that crypto processing should be as easy and seamless as traditional banking. If you would like to buy a cup of coffee with Cardano, there shouldn’t be any obstacles.
[IMPACT] Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community
By providing a streamlined payment solution with features like time-sensitive transactions, robust validation, and automatic fiat conversion triggers, this project seeks to address these issues and enhance the overall user experience within the Cardano community.
Our solution can have several positive impacts on the Cardano ecosystem, including:
- Increased Number of Transactions: By providing a user-friendly and reliable payment solution, the business can encourage more individuals and businesses to transact using Cardano (ADA). This can contribute to the growth of the Cardano network by increasing the overall transaction volume, thereby enhancing network activity and liquidity.
- The usage and adoption of stablecoins on ADA would enable more people to store money with it and spend more, consequently increasing the number of transactions.
- Popularization of Cardano as a Payment Option: Offering a streamlined payment solution that supports ADA transactions can help popularize Cardano as a viable payment option for everyday transactions. As more merchants and users adopt Cardano for payments, it strengthens the ecosystem and fosters wider acceptance and recognition of ADA as a digital currency.
- Enhanced Utility and Value of ADA: Increased usage of ADA for real-world transactions enhances its utility beyond speculative trading, thereby adding intrinsic value to the cryptocurrency. As ADA becomes more widely accepted as a means of payment, it may attract more investors and users, further bolstering its value and market adoption.
- Community Engagement and Growth: A user-friendly payment solution can attract new users to the Cardano community, fostering engagement and participation. This can lead to a more vibrant and diverse ecosystem with active users contributing to the network's development, governance, and overall success.
- Economic Empowerment: Providing businesses and individuals with access to efficient payment solutions on the Cardano blockchain can empower them economically, particularly in regions with limited access to traditional banking services. This can facilitate financial inclusion and empower individuals to participate more fully in the global economy.
