The Opportunity

Problem

University students bootstrapping NFT badge systems for achievements can't market effectively to peers who dismiss web3 as a scam and refuse to engage.

Solution

PeerProof matches badge creators with student ambassadors who promote via stories and shouts, earning rev-share on mints. Track referrals and payouts automatically. It verifies ambassadors via uni email to ensure peer credibility over web3 hype.

Target Audience

University students solo-bootstrapping web3 projects like NFT badges for academic achievements

Differentiator
