Introducing Sats Overflow
Sats Overflow 🚀
Sats Overflow is a question/answer site with lightning payments to unlock answers. When a user posts an answer, they can set any price to sell it. Then, other users have to pay that amount in bitcoin to view the answer.
The app uses a reputation system with feedback/ratings, so sellers have an incentive to provide good answers.
Problems & Solutions 🚨
There are already question/answer sites on the internet, but none of them reward users with real money.
We believe that when users get rewarded with real money for providing answers, the quality of answers will be much better.
How was it built? ðŸ›
The app uses Rust for the backend, and Javascript/ReactJs for the frontend.
The app uses a Postgres SQL database, and connects to an LND node for payments/withdrawals.
The frontend of the app uses WebLN to simplify the payment/withdrawal process.
Blockers & Issues ✋
Security is important when you build a custodial bitcoin app. All features should be designed with security in mind from the beginning, because your app will be an attractive target for hackers.
