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.

Setting Up and Onboarding BuidlGuidl Nodes with RPC Operators in Nigeria
This project is focused on advancing Ethereum’s decentralization in Nigeria by deploying two BuidlGuidl nodes and onboarding local operators to support RPC services. It includes purchasing high-performance hardware, configuring and syncing nodes, and engaging two Nigerian node operators committed to maintaining these nodes . Key Steps: 1. Procure Hardware: 2. Node Setup and Syncing 3. Onboard Node Operators 4. Maintenance and Monitoring
Scaffold-NFT
Scaffold-NFT will be a fork of SE2 which seeks to make the development of NFT projects as easy and intuitive as SE2 does for general smart contracts. Of course, Scaffold-NFT will laser in NFT development by providing template NFT smart contracts for ERC721, ERC115, dn404, and other NFT-like styles. Additionally, the frontend development side of the project will contain useful components to, again easily and intuitively, interact with NFT smart contracts and display the data retrieved from them. Finally, someone should be able to use the website to upload to IPFS, by integrating the nft.storage api. The combination of all of these factors will make it so that the developer can go through the entire processes of building, testing, and deploying, their NFT projects quickly and easily customize them to fit their project's requirements. Alongside, having a handy framework on the frontend for rendering NFT data and intuitive controls for the user. Thank you very much for your consideration. Jacob Homanics
Mafia Card Game
Mafia is a cool card game, which can be played in 4 players minimum, and can be extended to a lot of players! What is really cool about Mafia game is that you don't actually need cards to play it and having a chat with a lobby is enough to start the game running. Why this game on web3? 1. DAO - each player has to vote to eliminate the villain 2. Secrecy - every player's identity is hidden 3. Communication - all players need to communicate using channels (assassins, police, doctors, quorum) 4. Stake - a game is not that fun and competitive without prizes
