Algorithms as a Service (AAAS)

Overview

AAAS is a decentralized platform to compete with yourself, earn rewards by voting for challenges The platform consists of:

1. A mobile application built with React Native and Expo
2. A Solana blockchain contract built with Anchor

Users can create algorithm challenges, vote on solutions, and interact with the platform through a modern mobile interface that integrates with Solana's blockchain ecosystem.

// this should be replaced with some 100xdevs token for minting reward and USDC for joining the challenge
