We built a live game show platform on Celo - Here's How We Did It

We’re excited to share what we’ve built with our Prezenti Growth Pool grant. After months of hard work, we’ve completed our project and wanted to give you all a peek at what we’ve created.

What is Forti?

Forti is an interactive live video platform that transforms how creators engage with their communities. Think of it like a Twitch for everyone - where creators can host game shows, community calls, and interactive events with their audience while leveraging web3 functionality.

What We’ve Built

With Prezenti’s support, we’ve successfully:

  1. Integrated Celo Wallets: Users can now connect their Celo wallets, add/withdraw cUSD, and receive prizes directly in cUSD.
  2. Hosted a Major Creator Event: We partnered with Deekila (535k followers) for an interactive show and distributed prizes in cUSD! Users were incentivized to choose cUSD over traditional payment methods with double prize value.
  3. Supported Celo Community Events: Forti has been used for Celo Fellowship India, the Prezenti Grantee Showcase, and CELTAM events - making community interactions more engaging and interactive.
  4. Created an Expansion Roadmap: We’ve developed a case study on expanding to African markets with MiniPay integration, focusing on better on-ramps and off-ramps.

What’s Next

We’re just getting started! Moving forward, we plan to:

  • Expand to more creators in key regions
  • Further integrate with MiniPay for seamless experiences
  • Roll out our African expansion strategy

Thanks for sharing the detailed breakdown of your project—Forti sounds like a truly innovative platform for interactive engagement, especially with the web3 and cUSD integrations. It’s great to see more tools being developed that make blockchain experiences accessible and rewarding for everyday users.

On a related note, I’ve been exploring different platforms and apps where community interaction and gaming intersect, and Lotus 365 APK caught my attention. While it’s focused more on sports and betting content, the way it streamlines user engagement through a mobile experience reminds me of what you’re trying to achieve with Forti—especially the emphasis on real-time interaction and user incentives.

It’ll be interesting to see how platforms like Forti evolve alongside apps like Lotus 365 APK, especially as both start integrating more with decentralized payment methods and expand into broader markets like Africa.

Would love to hear if Forti plans to incorporate similar gamified elements or predictive features for sports and entertainment events in the future. Congrats again on the progress!
