Back in january, Request Network that they would allocate 30 million USD to the Request fund, a fund meant to encourage outside developers to build upon the Request Network, with an amount of 20-100k in USD per project.
According to what I have read over the past months, most people don't know the possibilities with Request, but the puts it into perspective.
There are currently 2 projects that I know of at this point that have been in contact with the Request team to build upon Request Network.
– an easy way for anyone to accept donations.
– easy transactions between family and friends, by Elunic.
– Application for WooCommerce to accept payments in cryptocurrency or fiat (Currently on ethereum is accepted, with plans to integrate ERC20 tokens and bitcoin soonish) This application is under development by one of the team members at Request.
Request Network is still in it's early days, and there are a ton of possibilities to build on it. If you are a good developer, you might wanna get in contact with them. I genuinely believe this will help bridging the fiat to crypto for your average Joe as easily as possible, and help with the adoption of crypto currency as a whole.
Edit: Published before I could edit title, Wooreq is not a outsourced project.
