⚡ Built with Next.js 15.3.4, Solidity 0.8.19, Prisma, PostgreSQL, and Tailwind CSS.
Traditional freelancing platforms charge 10–30% fees, delay payments, and lack transparency. Freelancers face trust issues, late payouts, and unfair disputes, while clients struggle with quality assurance and accountability.
Fork Work solves this by using blockchain-powered smart contracts, creating a trustless, fee-free, and global freelancing ecosystem.
Fork Work is a decentralized freelance marketplace built on Ethereum and USDT stablecoin.
It eliminates intermediaries, guarantees secure escrow-based payments, introduces a staking mechanism to ensure freelancer commitment, and supports bounty-style competitions.
✨ Freelancers keep 100% of their earnings (minus gas fees) while clients enjoy transparent, secure, and global hiring.
