Community Governed Loans and Mobile Money in Nigeria with Adebola Adeniran on The HackerNoon Podcast

Blockchain Technology Blockchain to Ensure that Money is Well Spent , we broached the topic of the tools needed to implement liquid democracy in the public sphere and add the possibility of holding representatives accountable for their actions. In our last article The key factor in enforcing accountability is one that can easily find multiple applications in the civilian world as well. In fact, starting to apply automatically enforced accountability in the civilian world might well be the key to see it adopted by elected representatives a well. Who could benefit from enforced accountability? From investors to donators, everyone would benefit from being able to keep an eye on the funds they invested or donated. Especially if the automated accountability system enables recouping all or part of the funds in case the recipient proves to be unreliable. So, who would benefit from offering to enable such a system in exchange for receiving funds. Anyone raising funds could use it. From an entrepreneur looking for investment to any organization that is raising funds from members or non-members, but from people who want to have assurances that the money they invest or donate is spent constructively. Offering to receive the funds in stages, where each fund release is conditioned by the successful completion of a set of tasks defined in the smart-contract that is the cornerstone of the system demonstrates that the recipient believes in the project feasibility and intends to perform optimally. Let’s imagine, for example, a caritative entity seeking to fund a project. In today’s world, donators give an amount deemed appropriate. After that, they basically hope that the institution will use that money for their stated purposed and that the bulk of their donation will indeed be applied to the stated goal of the institution. Yet, in fact, aside from trusting to check what percentage of their donations is devoted to the goal and what percentage is dedicated to finance the institution overheads, such as offices, salaries, travel expenses and the like, today’s donators have no way of checking that their hard-earned money will find its way to those in needs though the efficient management of the institution. third parties Even with the help of offering some modicum of information regarding the percentage of donations devoted to overheads, donators have no recourse in case the institution simply waste the funds raised. watchdogs If only it there was a system keeping track of the way the money is being spent… With blockchain technology and smart-contract, it is in fact possible. Not only possible but feasible and the tools to do so are about to be available… is developing a smart-contract that automates tracking and automatically enforces consequences, and is also providing a platform (App/web) for maximum ease of use by all and for all. Coalichain How would that work on a practical level? Actually, it is quite easy. Let’s imagine an NGO devoted to providing shelter to displaced people. They are raising funds to finance the purchase and distribution of 50 000 solar tents to shelter Syrian displaced people in Syria and neighboring regions. Presumably, they have an itemized budget, target areas and a timeline. These can be translated into milestones at pre-determined dates, or at time interval after reaching the donations threshold. Once milestones are established, a smart-contract can be created integrating these milestones and defining how to reward or sanction the NGO depending on the successful completion of the milestone goal. It would work as follows: In this fictional case, the NGO had successfully reached the first milestone of producing the 50 000 tents, and thus the funds needed for distribution have been automatically liberated, as they could successfully demonstrate that they met the pre-determined conditions. The predetermined milestone stated that, upon receiving the funds, the NGO was to ship 20 000 tents to a specific location. So, upon receiving the funds, they diligently start booking the trucks and boats to ensure efficient transportation of those tents. Unfortunately, war being unpredictable, the area where they were supposed to deliver the tents has now become an active war zone from where the displaced people are fleeing. They cannot possibly deliver the tents within the pre-determined time frame. As they fail to reach the milestone, an automatic poll is triggered, and the donators are requested to vote and decide whether the NGO deserves to be sanctioned or not. Luckily for the NGO, app provides them with a platform where they can explain, with documentation if necessary, the reasons behind their failure to meet the milestone and what they intend to do to redress the situation. Coalichain’s As the donators are sensible people, they vote to grant a time extension and a redefinition of the delivery area. though dramatic from a human point view, that is a happy story as far as supervising fund allocation is concerned. However, in order to fully understand the system, let’s imagine another story. This time, an entrepreneur is seeking funding to develop an app. Let’s say, his app will enable users to measure their weight loss curve and respond with appropriate dietary and exercises recommendations. Our entrepreneur manages to crowdsource $1M. In today’s system, like Kickstarter for example, once he has reached the funding goal, he immediately collects the entire sum (minus fees) and there is no guarantee that he will spend it in a wise and constructive manner. With system though, he will need to define milestones and money will be released gradually after each milestone is successfully concluded. Coalichain In this case, our entrepreneur milestones were roughly defined as follows, were the starting date is the successful conclusion of the crowdfunding campaign. 1. Within 40 days a. Creation of a website b. Hire additional developer c. Complete at least of 30% of the code Sum needed — $50 000 2. During the following 120 days a. Complete the remainder of the code b. Hire a UI/UX Designer c. Implement the design d. Debug Sum needed — $200 000 3. During the following 180 days a. Deploy the app on Apple and Google store b. Launch marketing campaign c. Fix remaining bugs and add features according to users’ feedback d. Gain 100k users Sum needed $750 000 The first milestone is fixed at 40 days from the crowdfunding campaign. When reached, our entrepreneur is introducing the new developer, showing the website he created and offering sample pages of the writer code as a proof of work completed with the initial $50 000 he received. As most of the donators have no knowledge of coding whatsoever, nor any idea of the amount of work required to create a website, nor of link between a developer experience and the salary they should be paid, they would tend to be favorably impressed by the flashy website, the arcane looking lines of code and the nerdy look of the new developer. As such, they might reasonably consider the milestone completed and vote to free the funds marked for the second milestone. However, being clueless about codding does not mean being totally clueless. As intelligent people aware of their lack of understanding of the intricacies of coding, the donators delegated their votes to those among them that do understand and trust them to evaluate the entrepreneur’s achievements. The vote delegation system is briefly broached in the “What is Liquid Democracy?” part of our . We will dedicate an entire article to that topic soon. For now, let’s simply consider that delegating votes is an option and see what it implies. previous article So, back to our entrepreneur’s milestone evaluation. The delegates are reviewing the material submitted by the entrepreneur. As this is a field they do know quite well, they immediately notice that the website is a barely modified off-the-shelf template. That, in and of itself, is not necessarily bad, it might be a good way to save resources for coding and workforce, so it does not impress them either way. However, when checking the hired developer qualifications, they immediately realize that the programming languages he has experience in might be good for old-fashioned website but is quite useless when it comes to app development. Glancing at the sample code is even worse. Not only is the language used not relevant for app development, it is also full of mistakes. So, they vote that the milestone has not been successfully completed. In such a case, the remaining amount, $950 000 is returned to the donators on a pro-rata base of their initial investment. They only lost a tiny fraction of their initial investment. As you can see, this system greatly reduces the inherent risks in investments in general. These are just a few examples of how can help ensure that raised funds will indeed be affected to the end goal in an efficient manner. Coalichain customizable smart-contracts are designed to be adaptable and flexible. This way, it enables anyone unfamiliar with blockchain to easily create a smart-contract with gradual fund release upon verification that the preceding milestone has been reached. Coalichain’s

初创企业的产品市场契合技巧：20 位专家的见解

Historically, companies have been developing their products with a focus on market research and technical innovation. However, this often led to a mismatch between the product functionality and what customers actually needed or desired. This is why in recent years product development has been shifting towards a user-centric paradigm. Investing in addressing customers’ pain points, motivation, and goals builds empathy and shows users that they are of value—this may effectively turn regular customers into genuine fans of your product. Today, it has become difficult to compete with other solutions on the market if your product or service does not meet the user's expectations. Markets have become more saturated, and users now lean toward products that solve their problems and that are friendly and easy to navigate. . Importantly, users who feel valued and heard are more likely to become loyal to the product and actively promote it. Businesses that have adopted a user-centric approach are finding greater success through increased customer satisfaction and loyalty What Is a User-Centric Approach? In a nutshell, user-centric product development implies attentiveness to the client's needs. This approach puts the customer at the heart of the product development process. The main principles of this approach are identifying users' current problems and needs and creating a product or service anticipating and exceeding their expectations. In terms of business management, rather than creating products based on technical feasibility or business objectives, this approach adjusts to the changing needs of customers and tries to improve services and maintenance that would be helpful and meaningful to them. k. Before and during the whole process of development, it is important to identify your audience, study their specific preferences and usage contexts, solve their problems, and offer a product tailored to their needs—and additional perks. This approach requires flexibility and openness to communication and feedbac Let’s focus on each component of the user-focused product development in more detail. Understanding Customer Needs To effectively meet customer needs, businesses must deeply understand their target audience. Market research provides essential insights into consumer demographics, while user feedback offers direct opinions and reactions from those who interact with a brand’s products or services. Data analytics complements these approaches by quantifying behaviors and preferences across larger customer segments. To gather the data you need, you can apply surveys, focus groups, and in-depth interviews. All this allows companies to gather qualitative data about consumer experiences and expectations. Perform observational studies: they can effectively reveal how users interact with products in real-world settings. Combine these insights with quantitative data analysis and you will get a comprehensive understanding of consumer behavior—and be aware of it at every stage of product development. Designing for Humans Principles of human-centered design (HCD) are key to creating products that genuinely resonate with users. This approach aims to make products and services accessible, intuitive, and simple. HCD is what makes our lives comfortable through paying attention to the details that matter. This design approach revolves around these key questions: Who is it for? What do they want? How to reach them? Keeping these questions in mind throughout the whole development process can help build a final product that will be relevant—and desired. Thoughtful UX design is one of the ways HCD promotes user care. User experience is crucial for customers’ loyalty and advocacy. It encompasses how users see, interact with, and benefit from the product. Great UX can increase user satisfaction, loyalty, and support, while a bad one can lead to frustration, abandonment, and negative reviews. If UX is not prioritized, you can lose your audience to the endless number of substitutes available in today's market. You can find successful applications of human-centered design in various industries where companies have developed innovative solutions that address specific user challenges—ranging from easy-to-navigate software interfaces to ergonomic physical devices that solve everyday problems. From initial concept to final release, this strategy involves a continuous loop of feedback and refinements based on real customer insights. It’s a powerful way to build more than a mere product, but an experience tailored to what your users want. User-centric product development places the needs and wants of clients at the forefront of every stage of creating a product. Relying on Data Going beyond anecdotes or gut feelings, user-centric product development relies heavily on data to guide decisions. Quantitative analysis offers indisputable evidence of how clients interact with a product—what features are used most frequently, where users seem to get stuck, or what prompts them to stop using the service altogether. Data-driven decision-making, or DDDM, is an approach that can take many forms. It encompasses collecting survey responses, identifying customer preferences, conducting user testing to understand product usage scenarios, and identifying potential issues before the release. It’s vital to analyze demographic data shifts to determine business opportunities or threats. By combining these methods, you can develop a product that addresses real problems in ways your target audience wants. User-Centric Product Management Put users at the center of your process and become an active listener. Create features and design hypotheses based on the user journey and final goals. Try to identify what is a success for a user, and not for you and your business. Your success depends on how well you understand your audience and whether you build products and services accordingly. Test your assumptions as early as possible, and stay flexible to be able to shift the focus to what is important. The process is not just about following the roadmap—it involves continuous and thoughtful interaction with clients. You need to promptly respond to the shifting preferences of users and adapt quickly to feedback, ensuring that the final product is not only functional but also smooth to use and desired by customers. Iteration and Feedback Loops User-centric product development heavily relies on iterative processes. This includes designing, prototyping, testing, receiving feedback, refining the product, and repeating this cycle until optimal product-market fit is achieved. Prototyping allows designers and developers to quickly explore ideas and save money and resources on implementations of doubtful features. Opportunities to test prototypes with actual users help identify issues and find opportunities for improvement before finalizing design decisions are made. You can do it by integrating tools like A/B testing platforms or user experience analytics software. These may be useful for collecting feedback at all steps, including after product release. This fosters ongoing continuous improvement based on real-world data. Measuring Success So, you have built the processes that answer the user-centric development approach. The next step is to measure its impact and ensure its effectiveness. For this, you can use a preferred framework with metrics that work best for your business. Key performance indicators (KPI) such as net promoter score (NPS), customer satisfaction ratings (CSAT), churn rate reduction, increased usage frequency or duration—all serve as valuable metrics suggesting whether users find value in your product. . Quantitative metrics like satisfaction rates provide precise numerical estimates, while engagement metrics and user feedback give qualitative insights into user behavior and feelings. Each metric provides a unique perspective on user experience To make informed decisions and meaningful improvements at all stages of development and product lifecycle, it’s best to use both quantitative and qualitative data. Afterword Companies which have embraced user-centric methodologies often share success stories featuring increased engagement levels, reduced churn rates among subscribers, and higher profitability thanks primarily to happy customers who advocate on their behalf. This serves as a testament to the effectiveness of understanding users’ experiences—their frustrations as well as their satisfaction points—and letting them be the focus of your product development. Shifting to user-centric product development is not just an ethical choice, it is a strategic one. It has already proven to be a pathway for sustainable success through a commitment to meet the evolving needs of the customers.

Why spend a ridiculous amount of time and resources trying to set up & manage your infrastructure when you can rely on Aptible to do it for you? Use these three steps to deploy a Docker image from your AWS ECR private repository to Aptible. What is Aptible? Aptible is a platform as a service that provides a scalable environment for deploying applications. In this environment, Aptible delivers development teams infrastructure tools such as storage, servers, load balancers, security & compliance, and more. These tools allow development teams to focus on writing code and deploying applications rather than managing infrastructure. Companies can save money and all the resources needed to set up and manage their infrastructure by relying on Aptible. Aptible offers a pay-as-you-go pricing model, allowing companies to only pay for the resources they use. It also gives a free one-month trial to development teams testing the platform for the first time. Using Aptible, you can deploy any application via the user-friendly Aptible dashboard. It also allows other deployment options, including Infrastructure as Code via Terraform and the Aptible CLI. All these platforms ensure that developers can deploy applications in the most comfortable manner. How to deploy a Docker image from AWS ECR to Aptible Project Overview For this project, we'll use a word counter application that counts the number of words in a sentence. This application will be packaged into a Docker image and deployed to a private AWS ECR repository. We'll then deploy this Docker image to Aptible using the Aptible CLI. JavaScript From this overview, we can see that there are three main steps to complete this project: Build a Docker image and push it to AWS ECR Authenticate AWS ECR with Aptible Deploy to Aptible Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: Prerequisites Before you begin this project, you'll need to have the following: An AWS account. If you don't have one, you can create one on the official AWS website. The is installed and configured with your AWS account. Make sure the AWS CLI has appropriate permissions to access AWS ECR. AWS CLI An Aptible account. If you don't have one, sign up on the . Aptible website The Aptible CLI. You can install it using the . Aptible CLI documentation Docker. You can install it . here Once you have created the following accounts and installed the necessary tools, you can begin with step one of this project. Step 1: Build a Docker image and push it to AWS ECR We'll package a JavaScript word counter application into a Docker image for this step. After that, we'll push this Docker image to a private AWS ECR repository. To build the Docker image, follow these steps: Clone the word counter application: $ git clone https://github.com/Aahil13/Word-counter.git Navigate to the word counter application directory: $ cd Word-counter You'll find all the files and folders for this application in this directory. Part of these files is a containing instructions for building the image. Dockerfile From the , build the Docker image: Dockerfile $ docker build -t word-counter . Verify that the Docker image was built: $ docker images --filter reference=word-counter You should see the following output: REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
word-counter latest c3d724e0a19e 12 seconds ago 60MB You can view the application locally using the following command: $ docker run -p 80:80 word-counter Navigate to your browser and point to the URL: . http://localhost:80 On your browser, you see the word counter application: To stop the application, press . CTRL+C With this, we have built the Docker image. Now, you'll push this Docker image to a private AWS ECR repository. To push the Docker image to AWS ECR, follow these steps: Using the AWS CLI, log in to AWS ECR: $ aws ecr get-login-password --region <REGION> | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin <AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>.dkr.ecr.<REGION>.amazonaws.com Replace with your AWS account ID and with the AWS region you want to use. <AWS_ACCOUNT_ID> <REGION> Create the private AWS ECR repository: aws ecr create-repository \
 --repository-name word-counter \
 --image-scanning-configuration scanOnPush=true \
 --region region Tag the Docker image: $ docker tag word-counter:latest <AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>.dkr.ecr.<REGION>.amazonaws.com/word-counter Push the Docker image to AWS ECR: $ docker push <AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>.dkr.ecr.<REGION>.amazonaws.com/word-counter You should see the following output: Using default tag: latest
The push refers to repository [<AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>.dkr.ecr.<REGION>.amazonaws.com/word-counter]
0342869436ee: Pushed
c1f569e0c435: Pushed
29c9ccae1ae2: Pushed
53bd9605a443: Pushed
c140f535da0a: Pushed
aba51e9dc8b1: Pushed
cc2447e1835a: Pushed With this, you have pushed the Docker image to AWS ECR. Now, we'll move on to step two of this project. Step 2: Authenticate AWS ECR with Aptible In this step, we'll authenticate the AWS ECR repository with Aptible. This authentication will give Aptible access to pull the Docker image from the AWS ECR repository. To authenticate the AWS ECR repository with Aptible, follow these steps: Login to Aptible from the CLI: $ aptible login You should see the following output: Email: <EMAIL>
Password:

Logged in as <EMAIL> Authenticate the AWS ECR repository with Aptible. : In this step, we'll run the same command in Step 1 to log in to AWS ECR. However, the ECR Docker login password will be stored in a variable. This variable will then authenticate the AWS ECR repository with Aptible. Note $ ECR_PASSWORD=$(aws ecr get-login-password --region <REGION>) Replace with the AWS region you want to use. This command will store the ECR Docker login password in the variable. <REGION> ECR_PASSWORD $ echo -n "$ECR_PASSWORD" | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin <AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>.dkr.ecr.<REGION>.amazonaws.com Replace with your AWS account ID and with the AWS region you want to use. This command will authenticate the AWS ECR repository with Aptible. <AWS_ACCOUNT_ID> <REGION> : We had to re-authenticate the AWS ECR repository with Aptible because the ECR Docker login password is necessary to deploy an application to Aptible. In Step 1, the password was passed using the flag. This flag ensures that the ECR Docker login password is not stored in the shell history. However, this flag is not supported by Aptible. Therefore, we had to re-authenticate the AWS ECR repository with Aptible, saving the ECR Docker login password in a variable. Note --password-stdin With this, we have authenticated the AWS ECR repository with Aptible. Now, we'll move on to step three of this project. Step 3: Deploy to Aptible This project's final step is deploying the Docker image to Aptible. To do this, we'll be using a single Aptible CLI command. Before executing the command, navigate to the Aptible Dashboard and create an app. You can do this by following these steps: Navigate to the Aptible Dashboard. In the Environments section, select the environment you want to use. Navigate to the Apps tab and click on the New App button. Enter the app name and click on the Create App button. After creating the app, you can deploy the Docker image to Aptible. To deploy the Docker image to Aptible, execute the command below: $ aptible deploy --app "<APP_NAME>" --docker-image "<AWS_ACCOUNT_ID>.dkr.ecr.<REGION>.amazonaws.com/word-counter" --private-registry-username "AWS" --private-registry-password "$ECR_PASSWORD" Replace with your AWS account ID, with the AWS region you want to use, and with the name of the app you created in the Aptible Dashboard. <AWS_ACCOUNT_ID> <REGION> <APP_NAME> You should see the following output: Hurrah! You have successfully deployed the Docker image to Aptible. You can now view the application on Aptible. Navigate to the Aptible Dashboard and select the app you created. You should see the following output: Although we have finished the deployment, we can't access the application yet. To access the application on your browser, you must create an endpoint. To create an endpoint, follow these steps: On the Apps section, select the app and switch to the Endpoints tab below. word-count Click on the New Endpoint button. Select the configurations as shown below: Click on the Save Endpoint button. It will take a few minutes for the endpoint to be provisioned. Once the endpoint is created, you can access the application using the endpoint URL. From the output, you can see that Aptible provisions a secure endpoint for the application. This endpoint is secured using a TLS certificate from Let's Encrypt. Aptible also provisions a load balancer for the application. This load balancer ensures that the application is highly available. : At the time of this writing, Aptible supports the creation of only one endpoint for a free tier account. If you want to create more endpoints, you must upgrade your account. Note Conclusion As displayed throughout this project, Aptible is an excellent platform for deploying applications. Aptible provided all the infrastructure tools needed for deploying the word counter application. Eliminating the need to set up and manage infrastructure. This hands-on project taught you how to deploy a Docker image from AWS ECR to Aptible. You can now deploy any application from AWS ECR to Aptible using the steps outlined in this project.
