Solution

Seaflux provided a Blockchain solution “Flow” to the client, which helps to build and generate support for next-generation artists and gamers. It helps artists to earn, who are underpaid. The artists get 90% of their earnings directly to their bank account which users give to them.
The platform allows you to support your favorite artist, using Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a credit card in less than a minute, and in return, the supporter receives an NFT of the artist or merchandise. These NFTs are in form of a multimedia 3D card containing an image or a video of their Live Concert.
The platform allows you to create the artist’s public profile for fans, where they can post about NFT which they collect on social media, and can also encourage their network to join the community which will eventually lead to the support of Artists.
PostgreSQL is primarily used for storing the Data of Artists who sign up on the platform as well as of users who give tips to Artists as a whole community.
Seaflux used GCP to deploy the platform’s frontend and store the images and videos that are being used as the giveaway NFT. GCP cloud function was used to host Node APIs. All the backend tasks are being performed by LoopBack (NodeJS framework).
All the 3D multimedia cards are rendered by PlayCanvas and then minted via Flow Blockchain. These cards can be viewed on the platform in full screen with audio.
