Blackbox

It is like the blackbox from the plane but for the metaverse.

Too much, sorry i have a deadline but we also prefer to tell this story face to face :D

Hi!, So now, some time passed the hackathon, i would like to explain what is that we did for the posterity.

What we made? We were 4 people on the team, 2 software and 2 hardware. We were mainly interested in involving both "sides" of the team, that's why our final deliveries included hardware and software. We made an enclosure with a Raspberry Pi inside, we attached some buttons and a display and made it run linux. This part is what we knew as the "blackbox", a device in which you would be able to store all your important assets, such as cryptocurrency wallet keys, username and passwords, special codes, among other things. This device ran a python based software that would store all these assets and create it's own network. Then we made an app, that will connect to the network created by the blackbox and access all the data inside of it. Well, it wouldn't access it as it is because our primary concern was security so we made the app a list of the available assets in the box, but the app will never actually receive any of them, when selected they will be displayed on the blackbox screen. With this, assuring that none of the vital assets got out of the blackbox.

Why we made it? We think security is going to become a bigger deal than it is right now in the coming years thanks to new technologies such as the meta-verse, were your digital "twin" could be easily accessed without proper security, this is what we were trying to avoid in here.
