Alyx: The All-in-One Web3 Companion Extension #324

Description

@Teyz

Hi Gitcoin Grants team,

I’m building Alyx, an open-source crypto productivity stack composed of a Chrome New Tab dashboard and a Go backend API.
The product is already functional and focused on practical daily workflows for users tracking markets and opportunities.

What is already live in the project:

  • Chrome extension replacing the new tab with an on-chain dashboard UX
  • Authenticated backend API for user data and sessions
  • User features: wallets management, watchlist, jobs listing/posting, and profile endpoints
  • Telegram integration (link/unlink + webhook flow)
  • BTC price alerts via Telegram with a background worker fetching market prices and triggering notifications on above/below thresholds

Why we are applying for Gitcoin funding:

We want to turn Alyx from a strong MVP into a reliable public good for crypto users and contributors, with a clear focus on:

  • Reliability: hardening alert delivery, reducing false positives/duplicates, and improving observability
  • Feature depth: extending alerts beyond single-asset/single-rule limitations and improving user control in extension settings
  • Open-source maturity: tests, documentation, contributor onboarding, and issue-driven roadmap transparency

How funds will be used (next 3–6 months):

  • Backend quality and monitoring improvements
  • Product expansion of alerting + automation workflows
  • Developer documentation and contributor experience
  • Security and maintenance work required for sustainable OSS operations
  • Alyx is built in the open, and Gitcoin support would directly accelerate shipping useful, user-facing functionality while improving long-term maintainability for the community.
