Thanks for the apology and more detailed questions about the project, Here are the answers below:

  1. Currently the wallet I came across which is closest to our scope or focus is the “Impact market wallet” known as Libera. According to Libera, their wallet will empower financially unserved and underserved people around the world however their wallet in simple terms is a fintech solution offering something valuable to unserved and underserved people. The “Dokitor wallet” has this scope of people in mind however where we defer is that the Dokitor wallet is a crowdfunding platform where sick people can raise funding for their medical expenses and doctors can also raise funding for their desired medical campaigns to give free healthcare to sick people. I’ve not come across a project like this in the ecosystem if not we would have gone straight to them to collaborate.

  2. We have @isaacbrams who is a developer and fluent in JS & Python, you can check out he’s profile here and this is he’s website with services he offers and has offered in the past. He will be supervising the hackathon to bring in more developers who would like to get on the project as we want more creativity on this.

  3. Below is a google doc. list to doctors and Organisations in our contact:

  4. Our current competitors are Go fund me, Idiegogo, kickstarter, and so on… all these platforms offer various utilities for different niches from business to, health, personal initiatives. Now all these platforms as useful as they maybe have limitations when it comes to:

  • Regional Restrictions: Most Crowdfunding platforms are restricted or limited to regions that support their payment options like paypal.

  • Paypal limitations: As at Jan. 2022 Paypal claimed to be available in 191 countries offering limited resources to 90 countries that means they only offered services to a 101 countries, and they are absent in 28 countries. They are 195 countries world wide and as of today Paypal offers limited of no services at all in 118 countries. and this may be due to these countries poor financial infrastructure or ability to accommodate more countries beyond they current threshold.

  • Transparency and accountability: Most of these platforms only show data they desire to show on their websites with no proof.

These are keys issues we intend eliminating with the “Dokitor wallet” as this, will be a wallet built on the Celo Blockchain with the infusion of the Mini pay wallet bridge. The “Dokitor Wallet” niche is in the health niche which will be a platform that enables people and medical professionals to crowdfund for their health expenses through the app. There is also the potential of infusing the valora wallet bridge as well which will lead to my no. 5 answer.

  1. Delivery
    Dokitor crowdfunding wallet: This is a wallet that will be developed and combined with Celo’s natively existing tech. The wallet is currently in its ideation phase and the reason we didn’t go further to develop a framework of its looks and functions is because we want to give that opportunity to developers interested on getting on the project during the virtual hackathon.

  2. In June 2020 the Grameen Foundation an NGO launched a project called the emergency cash relief program to help women micro entrepreneurs and a benefactor was Nemia Madrigal who ran a small convenience store in Manila, Philippines. You can read more about this article here.
    Whether directly or indirectly, the foundation has supported humanitarian missions in the past and can as well do it again depending on if the celo voters still wish to support humanitarian missions.

  3. We will be implementing strategy approach in these steps below:
    Implementation Strategy Plan Breakdown:

Step 1: Preparedness Phase
