Overview of My Submission
About
This is Decentralized content sharing platform made on top of ipfs, Defi and Ethereum. Nowdays content creation is centralised and are subject to changes or partiality by the site owners. To support the content creators and provide them with equal rights and profits, merklewrite is made!
In merkleWrite you can write a blog with images and markdown content. The users will need to pay 1 DAI as subscription fee for 30 days to see the blog's. The DAI taken from user's are then sent to Compound for generating Interest(In the Form Of CTokens). The Dai Taken and Interest generated are then equally divided between content creators who has Likes more than specified limit(Currently set at 10). You can transfer Subscription to other ethereum address, get paid once in a month and update your profile's to let world know you!
The Best part Is All is Decentralized with a no code support from appwrite

How this is built
Blokchain: The blockchian used here is ethereum and polygon(on testnets). The post metadata data is stored on smart contract which is built using solidity. The post content and images and other stuff are first uploaded to ipfs(interplanetary file system) and the hash returned is then stored onto the smart contract. This saves gas cost and provides more security and feasibility.
The payments are take through portis wallet and sent to compound protocol(which gives us back ctokens) which basically generated interest on it. Ones months end payments are calculated on the basis of how many creators are there, and there likes, views and then the amount is taken back from compound and given to creators. The interest generated is sent to admin(us).
Frontend: Its built using html, css, javascript, bootstrap. Web3js is used to make communication with web3 wallets, ethereum/polygon blockchain.
Backend: There is a small backend working for auth and storing likes on post which helps in distribution of creators funds. appwrite database is connected to nodejs backend and routes are created to handle application data. It act as a intermediary node between connecting appwrite, blockchain, ipfs and frontend.
Appwrite: Appwrite is really awesome. I was able to setup and connect all these things in very short span of time because of appwrite. appwrite is deployed using digital ocean image.
Then project is created and web app is added to it and database is created which handles like data. Some apprite functions are also used for data interaction btw blockchain and backend.
