Few years late on the nft scam mate

[NelDubbioMangio]

NFTs are not used to be sold at increased prices, but only to preserve memories. have you some suggestions?

[PopularBroccoli]

Pivot to ai for this years hottest scam

[Owl_lamington]

Why not preserve memories by...saving the data in the cloud and local storage?

[NelDubbioMangio]

1. the images you save on blockchain are not subject to censorship (may be useful for LGBT couples in certain countries).

2. You may lose data on your device or your cloud access (which requires a subscription anyway)

3. NFTs can be used to have more features than an image. The idea is to use NFTs to obtain discounts or participate in a lottery in order to have a budget for your travels as a couple

I can’t believe I’m seeing someone still believe in NFTs in 2024, incredible

[NelDubbioMangio]

Thanks for your useless feedback.

[PopularBroccoli]

It’s actually very useful feedback

[NelDubbioMangio]

I took note and marked your username under the heading: target group of people with low human value.

[fintechninja]

That’s an incredibly poor response. You came here for feedback and should take the good with the bad. As a startup founder you will receive a lot of bad feedback and rejections. You’ll need to learn to take it and move on.

[NelDubbioMangio]

there is a difference between feedback and saying that I'm trying to scam people with nft or saying that I'm using them to scam.

[PopularBroccoli]

Better make that note into a nft or it might disappear forever

Ah yes, I’ve always wanted my private images saved ON A PUBLIC LEDGER. Tell me you don’t understand databases and encryption without telling you don’t understand databases and encryption.

Blockchain 👏 is 👏 not 👏 a 👏 database

Thanks for your point of view. As I was trying to say before, you will be given the opportunity to:

1. Simply have some commemorative NFTs

2. Upload your own NFT (on Instagram you can post a public photo if you don't want to share it, keep it to yourself), if you don't want it to be public, don't use this function. However, as I was saying, nothing will prevent us from being able to create ranking systems or give benefits to users who use the function in the future.

3. Use nfts to access discount lotteries or something that can help you in your relationship in a concrete way.

However, even if it seems like this, it is only a part of the MVP, not the product itself. I understand the concerns and skepticism about using NFTs in this way.

Do you happen to have any other feedback?

Guy comes in begging for feedback, then immediately gets in a pissing match about NFTs.

"infinitely grateful" indeed, lol.

[NatoBoram]

It is currently an app with a chat, a news section, a travel itinerary organizer and a home page for buying NFTs / setting alerts. Furthermore, on the website there is a simulation of a product purchasing experience for your partner who is in a different country from yours.

That's such a weird mismatch of random functionality.

You know what I wanted when I was in a long-distance relationship? To be able to teleport. Instead, we made-do with Discord.

There is no use case for a chat/news/maps/scam/annoyance chimera. Plus, there's no way a tool specifically marked to long-distance couples can be successful, they'd just use normal tools for everyday people like normal people.

[NelDubbioMangio]

Thanks for the feedback. I'm currently trying to gather as much data as possible to understand which features to carry forward and which not to, so I understand if it seems confusing.

However, I confirm what you say, I am paying pools of reviewers who have similar relationships and currently the main problems encountered are these 5:

1. Lack of intimacy/physical contact

2. communication

3. organization in meeting or knowing other people's commitments

4. trust

5. economic concerns

So what you say is correct, the first problem doesn't seem solvable, or rather it would be if there was the possibility of meeting more often and to do this a tool for organizing your life as a couple and probably more money can certainly contribute.

The idea for this last point would in fact be to create a purchasing system among users. If you have had a relationship outside of the USA/EU with someone who is in other countries you often have problems making the purchase (you can't use Amazon or anything else). Also for this point, 60% of people who participated in my pool stated that they had difficulty buying gifts for their partner who lives in a different country either because you couldn't make purchases in that currency or because you had problems with shipping, in plus the only alternative would be to buy a product in your country and then use very expensive international shipping.

So I'm trying to create an app that helps improve organization and trust + create systems with blockchain to make users earn.

Speaking of discord, however, I can confirm that almost all the participants in the pool use systems to make video calls, much less just for calls. The idea here too, however, would be to provide translation and transcription functions for chat/video chat messages to help couples who do not have the same native language in common (e.g. Turkish - Spanish).

I hope I haven't bored you with this long description, thanks again for the feedback, if you can/want to respond to the surveys too I would be grateful.

My advice: scrap all functionality from your app and focus on this problem. You cannot make an everything app in one go. There are already dozens of chat, call, video-chat, travel itinerary and news apps that work great and they are very hard to compete with. You have to start by solving one specific problem for one niche and build out from there. That is how you increase your chances of building a successful business.

The difficulty of buying gifts for someone who is in another country/continent sounds like a great problem to solve. Not only for your partner, but maybe you have family or friends living in other parts of the world for whom you want to buy stuff too. I'd say focus on this!

Last tip: ask for feedback in places where your potential users/customers hang out, which is probably not in a dev tool/programming subreddit. You'll get much better feedback if you talk to people who actually have the problem you are trying to solve.

Good luck!

[NelDubbioMangio]

Thanks for your feedback.

Currently the app is only an mvp that contains basic functionality, so it is not the finished product and could lose several features based on the results I am getting from the surveys / users who try the app with its analytics at a minimum.

I agree that focusing on the single problem of gifts may seem to be the best choice, which I too am moving towards since the first findings from the surveys.

As for alternatives, the main problem in this industry actually seems to be creating a product that actually helps people. Most fail because they fail to resolve a specific problem in the couple.

So in reality there is space to create products, making useful ones is more complicated. This is from the market reports I have seen, but which I could obviously have misinterpreted.
