描述
AnswerChain is a course-specific, blockchain-powered Q&A platform designed for Nigerian university students. It addresses the problem of unstructured peer learning on platforms like WhatsApp and Telegram and the lack of syllabus-aligned solutions on global Q&A forums.
AnswerChain introduces ANSWR tokens, a native currency that powers the ecosystem. Students receive a bundle of ANSWR tokens on registration and use them as fuel for engagement: asking questions, rewarding top answers, and setting bounties. In return, contributors earn tokens that can be redeemed for Solana payouts or exclusive merchandise on the platform. This creates a learn-to-earn model that is both academically impactful and financially rewarding.
Future AI integration will verify answers, summarize discussions, and personalize study support.
User Flow
Onboarding – Students register, link their Solana wallet, and receive ANSWR tokens.
Ask a Question – Posting deducts a small number of tokens, which are reserved as rewards.
Answer & Upvote – Peers answer; community upvotes determine the best responses.
Reward Distribution – The system allocates tokens to top answers.
Bounties (Optional) – Students can attach additional ANSWR tokens to attract high-quality solutions.
Redemption – Earned tokens can be withdrawn (via Solana Pay) or exchanged for platform merchandise.
System Logic
Token Initialization: Every new user receives a set amount of ANSWR tokens upon registration.
Question Posting: A posting fee (in tokens) is reserved in a “reward pool.”
Answer Evaluation: Upvotes act as a decentralized validation mechanism; smart contracts calculate token distribution based on upvote weight.
Reward Payouts: ANSWR tokens are distributed to top answers automatically.
Bounty Layer: (Optional) user-set bounties are locked in smart contracts and released to the best solution.
Merch Integration: Token balances can be used to claim real-world goods (university swag, branded merch).
Scalability: Tokenomics extend to competitions, inter-university challenges, and educational partnerships.
本次黑客松进展
During the hackathon, we worked on AnswerChain, steadily developing its Q&A logic and token reward system. We focused on integrating ANSWR tokens for signup rewards, staking on questions, and automated distribution of rewards to top answers. We also designed the bounty feature and mock user flow to ensure smooth interaction between students and the platform. Our efforts resulted in a functional prototype that demonstrates both the academic relevance and the incentive-powered potential of AnswerChain.
