Feedback from the Community
A project is as successful as what the community thinks of it. We received 5* ratings in our first funding round and great feedback from the community.
“There needs to be a 6 star option, specifically made for this project ... If this exists anywhere in the crypto space (if so, I've never heard of it), I would defend this project as the superior creative minds in how they intend to implement this Dapp”
“GPS trackable NFTs and tokens that can be placed and picked up in the physical world by end users of an app on their local devices. This simple relationship sparks the imagination with use cases. Geocaching, voter participation, key event tracking of vehicles or packages in transit, location based gaming...the list goes on”
“This would generate a very valuable Dapp that would add to our Cardano blockchain a new type of use for NFTs, which is not found so far in any other blockchain... this would certainly increase the number of transactions in Cardano”
“... compelling market research that indicates wallet/ADA adoption that could be in the millions globally, and even more adoption if the impact spreads out to the wider Cardano ecosystem of native assets and tokens.”
