The goal of this project is to create a form of cryptocurrency(UWICoin), based on the Ripple API for use on the St. Augustine Campus of the UWI to provide students an alternative to physical cash. UWICoin is trying to resolve the issue of robberies which has become a main concern at the start of the semester. This is done by providing a cashless form of currency to use around campus. As well as trying to create a feasible form of the cryptocurrency so that it can have positive benefits to the University.
The UWICoin mobile application, created using Ionic 3 and Cordova, will be used as the mechanism for students to make transactions using UWICoin at outlets around the campus that accept the currency and the campus bursary.
