so you _did_ end up buying a boat load of ethereum i presume?

Not yet. For now the project "alpha" version is only deployed on Kovan testnet, in which ETH is free.

When I started coding this project ETH price was around US$ 500, and gas prices around ~40 Gwei, making it feasible to launch the project on mainnet without much hassle using my own funds.

Since then ETH has gone up to the roof. Now ETH is ~US$ 1900 and gas price ~150 Gewi, making it 14x more expensive to launch.

I'm still evaluating if I should launch on ethereum mainnet or in a different solidity compatible blockchain (ex: Binance Smart Chain, Avalanche) once the project reaches a beta version due to the cost of deployment.

In the project main page I ask for donations for covering deployment costs [1], but so far I was unable to secure any funds.

Thanks for sharing! I'm curious what you use to generate the high quality diagrams for the readme and on your blog.

You're welcome !

I use draw.io [1] for technical diagrams (ex: flowchart, UML, etc) and Google Drawings [2] for more generic diagrams (ex: system designs).

It looks like draw.io - or at least this would be easy to do with that.

Impressive!

Thanks!

Amazing, love this idea!

Thanks man!
