XCAD Network - Browser Extension

Technologies

About this project

XCAD Network is enabling the #Watch2Earn revolution by allowing fans to earn Creator tokens for watching their favourite Creators, directly on YouTube. The XCAD browser extension allows viewers to earn Creator tokens while watching their favourite Creators. Viewers can earn, view and trade Creator tokens all via the XCAD plugin. The plugin works in the background while you watch videos on YouTube. Viewers who have installed the XCAD plugin will be rewarded with the Creator tokens when they watch 80% or more of a video. Creator tokens can be used to vote on polls put out by their favourite Creators, the more tokens a viewer holds, the more weight their vote carries. This means the most loyal fans have the most say in a Creators Content. Furthermore, viewers are able to stake their Creator tokens with XCAD to get a multiplier on the rewards they earn from watching videos. The XCAD Network browser extension powers the Watch-to-Earn ecosystem by allowing users to earn Creator tokens directly while watching YouTube videos. As a Frontend Developer, I worked on building and maintaining the extension interface using React and modern JavaScript tools. My contributions included developing user interaction flows, integrating wallet connections, and implementing token-related features such as earning, tracking, and staking rewards. The extension operates seamlessly in the background, rewarding users based on engagement while providing an intuitive interface for managing tokens, participating in creator polls, and interacting with the broader XCAD ecosystem.
