/01 Context

In the explosion of interest in cryptocurrencies in 2020-2021, combined with the COVID-19 pandemic keeping the majority of people indoors and unemployed, blockchain games became quite popular in the Philippines as it allowed people to earn cryptocurrencies as rewards which they can later on trade for real money just for playing a game.


Axie Infinity was the most popular blockchain game where you could buy, sell and breed digital creatures called "axies," which are represented as NFTs. They can then use these creatures to play the game, allowing them to earn tokens which they can then trade for real money. People who had the financial capabilities to buy "axies" would sometimes lend these creatures to other people and let them play the game, they would just have to split the rewards. This gave birth to the game's scholarship system. The community refers to the people who own and lend axies as "managers" and people who play/borrow with the lender's axies as "scholars"

/02 Problem Statement

One manager has multiple accounts assigned to scholars. Checking how much each of their account has earned would mean that they would have to log on to every account. Very repetetive and tedious.


My solution was to create a platform to track all of their accounts' assets on one dashboard. They just need to provide their wallet address and the magic shall take over.

/03 Mobile Friendly

A major advantage of this tracker is that it works and looks really well on mobile making it accesible for everyone with any device.


/04 Userbase

This "beautiful piece of software" as many of my users like to call it, had once reached 10k daily active users based on Google analytics. It became a really popular tool within the axie gaming community.
