Hey yall, I have been bored and really just experimenting with creating things. Initially starting out as a Vibe code project, I quickly tried to learn the actual mechanics and its been a total blast. Getting that 90% to 100% is truly the game changer and just having a ton of fun uncovering it all and figuring it out. I have always had a few passions, one being the creation of Discord Bots and the other being Crypto. However, I always felt two things were a problem:
- Discord bots could be powerful and great, but often lacked an ability to control or really run a genuine buisness flow without a strong SAAS backing.
- Crypto analytics can be exciting but often cumbersome and overwhelming for the mass audiences.
So, with some free time, I went on to create two platforms that live in each other. The first being Ascent and the other being Augur
Ascent
This platform I truly designed to create a powerful and organized strucuture for Discord community owners/admins. Often I find issues where the bots that exist are either deeply problematic with complexity, paid feature lockdown, and external control. When creating Ascent, I created 3 bots in what I call "The Pantheon", a collection that allows more control for each owner on what they need.
Sentinel - Is our security bot that has advanced anti-raid, alt detection, appeal system, backup recovery, opt-in join, AI Moderation, and much more.
Beacon - Operates as an advanced ticket system with actual CSAT reviews, AI response, canned responses, knowledge base etc.
Vanguard - Which offers AI chatbot like features, rich embed editing, giveaways, etc.
I would go into more but a lot is summarized on the website lol
The main part though, the home, is the Dashboard. It all works strongly around this area and allows a lot of power. User gets banned? They can appeal and send a request through DM to be unbanned that shows up on their /my page. Lots of Tickets? Integrated easy paltform that organizes it all. White label? Ability to set CNAME custom verification panels, ID for tokens etc.
Its something I really have had fun making but would love to see some peoples thoughts who are in the Discord realm.
Augur
This paltform came with the idea of, how do we take live market data, and make it easy for the every day person, while also being powerful. Think CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko but the price of entry is much easier. For new people in the space, you see easier alerts, more streamlined market data and ability to get notifications and watchlist alerts. Also a portfolio tracker, easy learn section and more.
For more advanced crypto friends there is the standard mode, which utilizes multiple RPC nodes, APIs and data scraping to get as much info aggregated as possible to read and allow you to make informed decisions. When building both Easy and Standard mode, I wanted to ensure users were informed of potential honeypots, scam tokens, low LP etc, and using internal data to warn users (in case external audits/go plus doesnt exist). Along with this, for any project owners, creating the ability to have their users be able to vote in DAOs, take snapshots, etc. Of course, we do not retain any of this info, simply using public facing data and combining it into an easier shell.
Overall, its been a blast and lots of work still to do,bugs to cleanup and features to expand on, but wanted to share whats been going on.
