Inspiration
inspired by the announcement of the new department of government efficiency (DOGE), i started looking into how our tax dollars are actually spent. i looked through the .gov website and saw $160 billion in 'unreported' tax dollars. WTF?
What it does
FedLedger puts federal spending on-chain, offering transparency and accountability. Using zk-proofs and an SLM, it shows how tax dollars are spent while safeguarding classified information.
usaspending.gov already has a public API, and all of this information is available to the public. we're simply using the best technology to provide as much transparency as possible
How we built it
TBD, we're just pitching rn
Challenges we ran into
using the usaspending.gov api. i made a separate project using this, but it's not for this hackathon
Accomplishments that we're proud of
integrating the usaspending.gov api onto my website
What we learned
the government is incredibly inefficient and wastes a lot of our money
What's next for FedLedger
actually making the app
