Crowdfunding Prototype project for Midnight

[luislucena16]

Describe the feature you'd like

A prototype crowdfunding platform that allows the Midnight community to raise and contribute funds for community-driven projects. The platform should enable contributors to support initiatives, track progress, and receive updates on milestones, while providing transparency and accountability for fund usage.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, there is no centralized mechanism for the Midnight community to fund projects. Developers and contributors must rely on informal channels, reducing visibility, trust, and participation. This slows down project adoption and limits community engagement.

Describe the solution you'd like

Develop a community-focused crowdfunding prototype that provides:

• Project creation and management for Midnight community initiatives
• Contribution tracking with transparent funding flows
• Milestone tracking and progress updates
• Integration with wallets for secure payments (supporting testnet initially)
• Notifications and dashboards for contributors to track their support
• Administrative tools for project owners to manage funds and updates
• Optional gamification (badges, recognition) to incentivize participation
• Simple UI/UX suitable for early adopters and community testing

Additional context

• Prototype should support multiple payment methods (wallets, testnet tokens)
• Scalable architecture for multiple small-scale projects
• Transparent reporting to build trust in the community
• Quick iteration to gather feedback from early users
• Designed to test community interest and engagement before full launch

Would you be willing to implement it?

• Yes, I will implement it.
