Your house, running its own mini economy

Kids do their chores, routines and activities. You approve, they get paid in seconds, then spend it on things you already give them: screen time, new toys, a trip to the pool. Nobody loses a dollar.

Roadmap

What comes next

Live now

A chore app built on Nimiq

It opens in any browser, or as a mini app inside Nimiq Pay, because we built our own mini wallet into the page. No app store, no extension, no seed phrase, parent-managed underneath. That frees a kid from one tablet: any device becomes theirs once they connect it. Five languages. They earn for chores, routines and activities, then spend it in the Treasure Box on things you already give them, and the money circles back to you to fund the next round. They can stake it too, and watch it earn while it sits. They are learning to be their own bank with the training wheels still on: they run it, they stake it, they spend it, and none of it leaves their wallet unless you approve.

August

  1. One month

    Testing it with my own kids

    My kids run their real chore routines on it for a full month, on our own tablets. The community feedback button is already live, in both the kid app and the parent app, in the same corner menu as the language picker. We fix what comes up and refine it from there.

  2. Community funding

    A Rive animator to gamify the app

    A Nimiq Community Funding proposal, 5 to 10 thousand dollars, to hire a Rive animator. I am already in the Rive community and will take quotes from two or three of them. The bar is Duolingo: a character that reacts the moment a chore is approved, a streak that visibly builds, coins that fly into the balance, a celebration when a whole routine lands.

  3. Building now

    Recurring allowance and bonuses

    An allowance the parent sets and controls, that repeats, plus bonuses.

September

  1. Distribution

    A grassroots push to get families on it

    Most crypto asks people to invest first. We would rather solve a real problem, then give them a reason to use it. I have young kids, so I am around parents constantly. I hand them a cashlink and ask them to try it at home. Real families first, then an App Store listing, then marketing once there is something to point at.

Future goals

  1. Cosmetics

    Creator drops, the way Fortnite does it

    New sticker packs, backgrounds and characters, released on a schedule the way Fortnite runs a season. Outside creators make them too: a creator submits a pack, I approve it into the app, then each parent decides whether their own kid can buy it. Two gates before anything reaches a kid.

  2. Integrations

    Research phase

    Paying kids for learning too

    Connecting to apps that teach reading, math, music and coding. Ello, Khan Academy Kids, Yousician. Nothing that is only a game. HTLCs would release the reward once the work is confirmed.

Always

No ads, no tracking, nothing predatory

The parent funds everything and approves every chore before it pays. It stays open source.
