The Problem Coinswag solves

The crypto world is exploding with vibrant communities and innovative projects! But there's a disconnect between digital engagement and real-world representation. Crypto enthusiasts want to show their allegiance, projects need to boost brand awareness, and communities are seeking new revenue streams. If only there was a seamless way to create, sell, and distribute custom merchandise that truly represents the spirit of Web3...
Enter Coinswag! Coinswag tackles the major hurdles in crypto merchandise creation and distribution:

• Design and Production: Creating high-quality, on-brand merchandise. Coinswag helps by providing an intuitive merch design interface and connecting with reliable production partners.
• Store creation: Setting up and managing online stores. Coinswag simplifies this by creating stores for communities, allowing communities to focus on their products rather than e-commerce technicalities.
• E-commerce Integration:: Enabling purchases with various cryptocurrencies. Coinswag allows users to pay for merch using stablecoins, which increases the market communities can sell to.
• Community Engagement: Involving community members in the merchandise creation process. Coinswag facilitates this through voting mechanisms for design approvals and product selections.

Coinswag will fuel the crypto merchandise revolution by making it easier than ever for communities to represent their digital identity in the physical world!
But what about the UX? We believe you can't grow the Web3 economy without making it ACCESSIBLE! That's why we've created a user-friendly interface that abstracts away the complexities of blockchain interactions and implemented gasless transactions where possible.

Now, any crypto community can easily create and sell merchandise that truly represents their digital identity.

Challenges we ran into

Challenges we ran into

We've encountered some interesting hurdles along the way. I had to learn how to think and build blockchain solutions, because I'm originally a web2 developer. We also faced challenges in deciding how abstracted the platform has to be, so we can have a User Experience that onboards users, while not keeping them clueless on where to go next.
Implementing gasless transactions across multiple blockchain networks using Coinbase Paymaster presented its own set of difficulties, particularly in ensuring consistent behavior across different wallets and devices. We're still fine-tuning this aspect to provide the smoothest possible experience for our users.
Despite these challenges, we're excited about the progress we've made and the potential impact Coinswag can have on brands and communities and their representation in the physical world.
