A brief history of OST's Alpha programs
Whereas the first Alpha program focused on the process of minting Branded Tokens from staked OST, resulting in over 18 million transfers, OST KIT Alpha II allowed businesses to integrate their own Branded Token transfers into their apps. Developers could trigger token transfers between company-and-users and user-to-user through integration with OST KIT APIs.
Alpha III is the opportunity to integrate the first OST Branded Token wallet features into your apps, and to provide OST with your feedback on how to build the best, most robust, wallet APIs, UX and features to meet your business needs.
What makes for a successful integration?
A. Mint a Branded Token with OST KIT (Alpha II projects do not need to repeat this step)
B. Integrate your Branded Token into your website or app such that app events trigger token transfers between users of your app. Ideally, your app will trigger all of: company-to-user, user-to-user, and user-to-company token transfer events. If your app does not have functionality for user-to-user token transfers, you must demonstrate both company-to-user and user-to-company token transfers (e.g. user earns tokens from liking a photo (company rewards tokens to user) and then user spends token in the app (user-to-company).
C. Run at least 1000 in-app events triggering token transfers, not including airdrops to users.
D. Your POC must show user wallet features including users’ token balances and transaction histories, within your app or website. This can be achieved by creating user wallets and/or by integrating the OST Wallet-Lite features throughout your website or app. See our developer resources for details about OST Wallet-Lite APIs. At minimum, your POC video must present at least one user’s token balance and transaction history displayed in their logged-in version of your app or website.
E. Your final POC must present active developer logs showing the in-app events that trigger token transfers and that connect to the OST Ledger and Balance APIs. You will receive a submission guide with best practices for presenting the developer logs in your final POC submission video.
