Code Review and Developer Support on Batch-13
I was invited by Philip to contribute on the Code Reviews and supporting the developers of Batch-13.

DefiVerse
The DeFi ecosystem’s complexity makes it inaccessible to many, with challenges such as limited hands-on learning options, fragmented resources, and minimal security education. DefiVerse addresses these gaps by creating an interactive on-chain learning platform that combines practical DeFi experiences with structured, progressive modules. In 2 weeks, I plan to launch an MVP that can st a solid foundation for newbie in defi, by learning all basics required to start defi such as protocols, liquidity pools, lending, flashloan, security basics... Over time, DefiVerse will expand to include simulations, multi-protocol support, specialized learning tracks, on-chain certifications and hands-on exercises within a safe environment.

Students receive unique NFTs for class participation, providing immutable, secure digital proof of achievements. Key features include: - Automatic NFT minting for attendance - Tamper-proof record-keeping - Real-time accessibility for students and administrators - Gamified learning with reward mechanisms - Smart contract-driven administrative processes Benefits: - Institutions gain transparent, simplified management - Students earn collectible, verifiable credentials - Employers receive authentic achievement records The platform transforms educational engagement by leveraging blockchain's security and NFT technology.

Scaffold Chat
For my final project as part of batch 5 I would like to build a chat room application The flow of the application is as follows: - when users log in on connecting their wallets, they see a list of existing chat rooms - user can either join an existing chat room or create a new chat room - in the chat room users see a list of all other users in the chat room and can also contribute to the chat

Scaffold ETH 2 extension: signature builder
A Scaffold-ETH 2 extension to test EIP-712 signatures. My first idea is a simple form to generate the domain, a form to generate the data, and a button to sign. When the user signs, the signed data is displayed on the screen and console.

Upgrade Scaffold-Lens to Lens V3
Lens V3 represents a big upgrade and a move to a dedicated chain based on zkSync. I'm applying for a grant for the initial phase of upgrading Scaffold-Lens to support Lens Network and Lens Protocol V3. V3 expands on the concept of "Lens Modules" with "Actions" and "Rules" which are smart contracts that allow for deep customization of Publications, Accounts, Feeds, Groups, and Graphs. Grant tasks: 1. Add support for zkSync to Hardhat 2. Deploy all Lens V3 contracts to run a local Lens Protocol 3. Deploy example "Action" and "Rule" contracts Beyond this grant I plan to add support for creating custom Apps, Feeds, and app-specific Graphs as well as adding the ability to create Accounts, register Usernames, create Groups, and publish Posts.
