The problem EtherPay solves

EtherPay addresses the following problems:

  • High Transaction Fees: Traditional donation platforms charge significant fees, reducing the support creators receive from their fans. EtherPay enables fans to send Ethereum directly with no deductions, ensuring creators get 100% of the donation.
  • Complexity in Support: For fans, many platforms make the process of supporting creators complicated, with multiple steps and payment methods. EtherPay simplifies the process by providing a direct and easy-to-use interface for Ethereum transactions.
  • Lack of Engagement Features: Many platforms lack real-time interaction features for creators and streamers. In the future, EtherPay will add a streamer display page integrated with OBS, showcasing live transaction popups with fan messages and names, enhancing audience interaction.
    EtherPay aims to provide a secure, free, and streamlined solution to these challenges, helping creators monetize their content without additional costs or friction.

Integrating Ethereum into the platform was tougher than expected. We had to navigate through smart contracts, ensure seamless transactions, and make sure everything was secure and real-time.
Authorization of accounts and validating Ethereum transactions was a big hurdle that we managed to get over by using web3 and ethers,js
