The Challenge

The challenge of this task is to develop Setita, a Web3 fundraising app on Solana that ensures a secure and transparent donation process. The app must allow fundraisers to set milestone-based funding goals, ensuring that donations are released progressively as targets are met. This approach builds trust by guaranteeing that funds are utilized as planned while maintaining donor engagement.

The platform will include smart contract-powered milestones, real-time donation tracking, and automated fund disbursement. Each campaign will have predefined checkpoints, unlocking funds only when specific objectives are achieved. This ensures accountability, enhances credibility, and encourages more participation from donors, making Setita a reliable and effective fundraising solution.
