When deciding what type of project we would want to work on, blockchain was a common interest between all of our team members. From prior experience, we knew that sometimes, getting people to participate in events can be hard. One of the best ways to increase participation is, well... incentivize it! That's where the idea for NoleCoin originated.

Nolecoin uses Ethereum and smart contracts to handle transferring tokens between users. Users can open our react-native app to register for our service, and start receiving NoleCoin immediately!

We built NoleCoin using a mountain of tools:

• Solidity/WebTree to create the smart contracts we used
• Google Cloud Compute to host a VM which runs most of our code
• Flask to design a basic JSON API for our app to use to interface with our server
• React-native to make a mobile app for our users to use

All sorts of unexpected errors. Typos that sent us on wild goose hunts for hours, forgetting to implement methods to get the data we wanted, even extra semicolons in some cases.

Time Management. Blockchain and distributed computing.

The world. (Or at least the rest of FSU.)

Big thanks to @zygrith and ChristopherHolder for helping make this happen!
