[GENERAL] Summarize your solution to the problem.

linkslist is a web3 cardano powered bio links website. The solution will utilise cardano nfts and decentralised data storage to provide a bio links website for all.

[GENERAL] Summarize your relevant experience.

My name is Paddy I am a Cardano stake pool operator with 12+ years of Software engineering experience. I am the creator of poolpeek.com and buildingoncardano.com both of which provide great value to the cardano community.

My aim here is to utilise my web and cardano experince.

[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

What is a Bio Link - As the name suggests “link in bio” refers to the clickable URL that you can add to your social media profile section. Most social media platforms give you the option to add a link in your bio to take followers to your website, product page, content or some other important page.

Why web3 Bio Link - Your wallet is your ID, we aim to provide a solution to register and create a bio link using only your wallet.

What is it- linkslist will be full of features for you to create, style, colour, add picture and manage you bio links website by simply connecting your wallet, along with adding blockchain specific features such as send payments, tipping, image roll of your nft collection and displaying what nfts are for sale.

Is that it? - No! Future features such as premium section on bio links for your followers to subscribe to, thus enabling you to post premium links, videos, blogs.
