Mini Apps

Think I'm going to go for it on the @base batches buildathon. It's an idea  I've been obsessed with for years, and have built many iterations but I think miniapps might give the tight iteration loop and instant distribution to make it finally happen

Idea: UX for charitable giving

Why I'm obsessed:
- sense of connection. instead of *just* doom posting, donate some loose change and watch how it adds up with time & mindshare. hopefully helps people feel a little more empowered
- positive feedback loop. everything's full of dopamine hits to distract, why not try to reinforce a positive behavior too?

Brass tacks:
- experiment with any and all social features. this is as much about building a social norm as technology
- sponsors: "your donations have a 1.2x multiplier thanks to ___" (better UI needed, but you get the idea)
- encourage other miniapps to be "sponsors" with a % of each tx the user completes (hopefully makes users more likely to click the tx button)

It's live!

Set how much you want to donate and watch how quickly it adds up as an individual and a community

technology ate the world and turned it into a hellscape. in search of flowers that have grown up in the cracks

Thanks so much! Really happy with how it turned out but hoping to add lots more in the coming weeks too
