I am Naidu from India, working on University token to tokenize all the transactions within any educational institution. I am developing this project as part of OST Kit Alpha3 challenge.

What is the goal of your project/business’s use of blockchain?

Immutable feature of blockchain can be used to store the student records such as exam results, graduation certificates, which can be used by their future employers to verify the authenticity. And all the transactions can be tokenized within particular university and all of it’s affiliated institutions.

Why did you decide to register for OST Alpha Phase III?

I have participated in Simple Token (OST) PoC II challenge and developed an android application as an interface for users of an university to carry out all the transactions with in university on OST blockchain. I learned a lot in phase 2 development and was interesting to get hands on experience on blockchain. And there are very limited features in PoC II and also no arbitrary transaction values can be supported. When I heard about PoC III with more features to benefit the services of blockchain, I registered immediatley.

What is the current progress for your team’s OST Alpha Phase III development?

We quickly glance through new OST kit API and started working on our android application to modify the existing API and adopt to new API.

Tested all the users creation and actions, everything working smoothly.

we have implemented Balance and ledger API to access the balance and transaction history from ledger instead of accessing from local database.

Transaction History from Ledger

We have below tasks to implement further:

  1. Display link to display transaction details on OST Ledger.
  2. Display Wallet balance and transaction type(Tx/Rx).
  3. Optimize the code to process the list of huge of transactions returned from Ledger.
  4. Fix some bugs related to display and OST API calls.
  5. Test to generate more than 1000 transactions.

will post next update in few days.
