Sending tokens from A to B

This is the simplest “DApp” (124)

  • (2021-02) Just send tokens from A to B, from a single type, on a single network. [3d]
  • (2021-02) Send a basket of tokens of many types, in one step per token type. [2d]
  • ALWAYS also gather, display and record prices in terms of the user's unit of fiscal accounting (e.g. USD, CAD, EUR, JPY, etc. — for test networks, have a tUSD, tCAD, etc.)
  • (LATER) Send a basket of tokens in one atomic step on one network. (Requires all tokens already in a managed proxy contract.)
  • In a single verifiable step, send a basket of tokens across multiple networks.

Simple DApps

  • (2021-04) UI for the buy_sig contract [2d]
    • Select address from
    • copy/paste or drag-n-drop the document to be signed
  • (2021-04) UI for the rps contract [3d]
    • Applications that require multiple steps of interaction, would typically request from the wallet that it should grant the application layer the funds necessary to cover the interaction plus its estimated worst-case gas, so that users don’t have to sign multiple messages in a timely manner. Unless the user wants to be involved in every step.
    • The user is alerted in case funds are insufficient e.g. because the price of gas shot up.
  • (2021-04) UI for a basket swap contract [2d]
    • I sell you this basket of tokens, you sell me that basket of tokens. Atomic transaction.
