Several privacy projects are based on Mimblewimble such as Beam and Grin. MimbleWimble also can applied to Qtum.
Dai is a stable coin on Ethereum. It's implemented through the smart contract. So, it also can be ported to Qtum to realize a stable coin backed by Qtum.
Lightning Network enables blockchain payments without worrying about block confirmation times. Qtum has several PoCs. Besides, there are other implementations, like Ind and Breez. The goal of this topic is to enable the latest Lightning Network on the latest version of Qtum.
Mobile wallets are an important tool for using Qtum as a payment method. we find there are several open-source implementations on other blockchains, like Multy and Trust Wallet. They can be applied to Qtum to improve the ecosystem. It's also recommended to support Beam and Grin in the mobile wallet.
Web wallets allow holding, sending and receiving coins right from your browser, and are especially convenient for online payments.
Web wallets can be developed in the form of a website or as a browser extension.
We welcome innovation in this space for both Qtum and Beam.
Qtum already has a beautiful Web Wallet, while Beam does no not have one yet.
This category is for the developers to dream, invent and innovate.
Any projects related to Qtum or Beam can be submitted in this category - no rules or limits here.
Put your imagination to work and win!
