Earn Crypto by Reporting Drug Trafficking

The problem Breaking Bad solves

We came up with a solution that enables public to report the findings of drug trafficking in their locality completely anonymously. This anonymity is ensured by using Web3.
Our App also gives the Police authorities the power of incentivizing this process by allowing them to send bounties(as real cryptocurrency) to the ones giving a legitimate tip. This will encourage users to actively participate in eliminating the drug trafficking.
To eliminate spam reports and make things easier for the authorities, we use a Deep Learning Text Classification model which classifies gibberish from meaningful text.

Challenges we ran into

  • For all of us this was first web 3 project, so understanding smart contracts was time consuming and difficult. We found many helpful videos on youtube which made it easier to learn smart contracts
  • Handling Spam tipoffs was the biggest chanllege we faced. We fixed it by devloping deep learning model using tensorflow which classifies tipoff spam or not spam.
  • Integrating Web3 to the client was a challenge but we got through it.
