poidh means âpics or it didn't happenâ, you can try it at https://poidh.xyz.
At its heart poidh is an app for paying people to do stuff. You have likely done this many times in your life. You want something done, you find someone IRL to do it, you pay them for doing the thing, and you both go on your way.
The key point here is that to complete this process, you have to know who you are paying. If you're paying them, you need personal information about them to complete the payment (a Venmo account, a PayPal account, their address to send them a check or cash, etc.).
poidh is different in that it allows you to pay people for completing things without knowing who they are or anything about them.
How does this work? Take this example:
You may have come across poidh by seeing this flyer hanging in a coffee shop. If you scan the QR code, it will take you to a bounty page with this message:
The task is simple: take a picture of your coffee along with the flyer (to prove that you're, indeed, at the coffee shop in question) and upload it on the poidh bounty page. We review the photo to confirm whether or not it's legitimate and, if it is, we will "confirm" the bounty which will automatically send the "0.0025 ETH" to your crypto wallet. "ETH" stands for Ethereum, a type of coin, and 0.0025 ETH is worth about $6.25 at the time of this writing.
Note: Donât even know what a crypto wallet is? There is a whole section further down explaining how to create one so you can get paid with poidh.
We get a promo photo of someone holding a coffee cup IRL next to our flyer, you get your coffee paid, win-win.
The key thing here is that there is no way to do this without crypto. Any other method of payment would require you to share your personal payment information + a 3rd part payment processor would have to transfer our funds to you. It's not nearly as seamless and you would lose some of your privacy in the process. With poidh, the task gets done and you get paid, that's it.
This is only possible because poidh is built on public, decentralized blockchains. When someone creates a poidh bounty they escrow their funds in the poidh smart contract but, crucially, they do not actually lose control of their funds.
At any point, they can "cancel" their bounty and return the funds directly back to their wallet. They do not have to ask our permission to do this because, thanks to the way that blockchains work, the account that holds their funds only listens to instructions from their crypto wallet. poidh holds no control of user funds at any time.
Check out the videos below to see the process of creating a bounty on poidh and canceling a bounty. Take note of the wallet balance in each video. You will see that the value of the wallet decreases by $6 when the bounty is created, and increases by $6 when the bounty is canceled and the funds are returned to the wallet.
No fees are taken by poidh for depositing or retrieving funds from unfulfilled bounties, but you will have to pay blockchain "gas fees" for each transaction. These are usually minimal and hover in the range of 1 cent to 10 cents per completed transaction. For more information on gas fees, please see the "setting up your wallet" section below.
Ideally, bounty creators do not have to cancel their poidh bounties. The goal is that other users are incentivized to take action and provide visual + text proof via the app.
After a bounty has received a submission that a bounty creator believes to be sufficient, they can "accept" a bounty claim with a final transaction. This will automatically transfer the escrowed bounty funds to the user that submitted the claim, and the photo they submitted to the wallet of the bounty creator (in NFT form).
Check out the videos below to see how this would work for our aforementioned coffee bounty:
If you're ready to do everything in the videos above, you're going to need a crypto wallet. Now, poidh does have options to create a crypto wallet right on the site itself. You can either enter an email to generate a wallet or use the Coinbase Smart Wallet feature shown here.
However, for best results, we highly recommend using a dedicated crypto wallet for the site. Our wallet of choice is Rainbow which is available on iPhone, Android, or as an extension via your computer's browser: https://rainbow.me/
iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rainbow-ethereum-wallet/id1457119021
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.rainbow&hl=en
Browser: https://rainbow.me/download
If you are using Rainbow with a laptop or desktop browser, connecting your wallet to the site will be as easy as clicking the "connect" button on the site after you have the browser extension installed.
If you are going to use mobile, we then recommend using the in-app Rainbow browser to visit poidh. The browser can be accessed by opening Rainbow, then clicking the globe icon within the menu:
Once you're in the browser, type https://poidh.xyz to visit the app. Click the "connect" button, sign a transaction to login, and you're ready to go:
If you're a brand new crypto user, you will need to add funds to your wallet on the proper blockchain network. If you are using poidh on the Arbitrum or Base networks, this will mean buying Ethereum.
Note: If you would like to use the Degen Chain network, the process will be a bit more complicated and you will need to use the token DEGEN. We don't recommend this for beginners, but if you want to try you can use the "Get $DEGEN" and bridging functions via this site https://www.degen.tips/.
For those in the US, the most trusted site to buy Ethereum for your wallet is Coinbase.com. If you're international, we recommend Binance.com. Or better yet, find a friend who's into crypto and ask them to send you your first ETH (trust us, they'll know what you're talking about).
No matter what option you use to buy your Ethereum, you'll need to be sure that you then send it to your wallet on the right network. Again, on poidh, we have two different Ethereum networks available: Arbitrum and Base.
Arbitrum is represented by the white/blue "A" logo and Base is represented by the blue circle logo. If you need to know what network a bounty is on, you can connect your wallet on the bounty page and it will automatically set the correct network.
Alternatively, you can check the URL of a bounty to know which network it is on:
Once you know the bounty network, you will need enough ETH to pay the gas fee to submit a claim for a bounty. The transaction fees on poidh can vary from about 1 cent to 10 cents, but to be safe I'd recommend sending yourself at least $5 of ETH to get started.
The biggest thing to remember is, if you are sending yourself ETH from an exchange (or getting your friend to send you some), that the "sending" network matches the network of the bounty you are trying to claim. Sending to the wrong network could result in a loss of funds, so please pay close attention and select either "Arbitrum" or "Base":
The second most important thing is to double (and triple) check that you are sending ETH to the proper crypto wallet address. To check the wallet address you have connected to poidh, you can click the wallet widget at the top of the site:
Then click the "gear" icon next to the string of letters and numbers that starts with "0x" and select "copy wallet address":
This will copy the wallet address to your clipboard. Alternatively, you can always copy your wallet address from within your crypto wallet itself. If you're using Rainbow, this is done via the "copy" button on the app's home screen:
Think of the wallet address like your email address, it's what you share with people to make sure that things are sent directly to you. The address will be exactly 42 characters long and will always start with "0x". However, you will often see it truncated with "..." in the middle to simplify display. A fully pasted Ethereum address will look like this:
0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045
Once you've confirmed and copied your wallet's address, you are now ready to send funds to it! Enter the address on your exchange of choice and you will be good to go:
We recommend sending a small amount first, confirming the receipt, and then sending the full amount after confirmation.
Note: Your wallet address will be the same across Arbitrum, Base, and Degen Chain. If you are using Rainbow, you will be able to seamlessly control your assets on each network with the wallet automatically recognizing which chain they are on. So, once you're comfortable with your wallet address, you'll be ready to go no matter what (Ethereum-based) network you explore next.
Once your wallet has ETH in it, you will be able to complete actions on the poidh site! If you have further questions, consider reaching out to us via @poidhxyz on X or browsing the FAQ + links below.
The general concept for poidh is this: A user can define a bounty and deposit a specific amount of ETH (on Arbitrum or Base) or DEGEN (on Degen Chain) they are willing to pay for the bounty. People who are competing for the bounty can complete the bounty and upload a picture/visual evidence + text description as a claim. This claim is minted as an NFT.
If the bounty creator accepts a particular submission as the winner, that NFT is transferred to the bounty creator while the ETH or DEGEN associated with that bounty is transferred to the bounty winner. poidh holds no control over user funds and all bounties are managed by their creators.
There are no limits to submissions on a poidh bounty page. If you would like to have a submission removed from your bounty page, please reach out to us on Warpcast, on X, or by emailing poidhxyz (@) gmail dot com.
The poidh smart contract is designed so that only one (1) winner can be selected for each bounty. However, since the app collects the wallet address of every user who submits a claim, you can always send secondary prizes manually.
You can copy the wallet address for the issuer of a specific claim by clicking the "copy" icon to the right of the address within the claim card:
poidh was built by https://warpcast.com/kenny and https://github.com/Rhovian
This project has not completed a formal audit. Please keep this in mind when interacting with the app and understand that bounty funds may be at risk.
Yes, you can find the app GitHub repo here: https://github.com/picsoritdidnthappen/poidh-app
The repo for our solidity contracts is here: https://github.com/picsoritdidnthappen/poidh-contracts
Most NFT dashboard sites will display your poidh NFTs when you have your wallet connected. Alternatively, you can visit the poidh site, connect your wallet, and click the "my bounties" button to view your profile page which will list all the NFTs you've collected or purchased.
All poidh images are uploaded to IPFS via Pinata. To learn more about poidh NFTs we recommend https://paragraph.xyz/@poidh/on-poidh-nfts.
A 2.5% fee is collected by the app for completed bounties. There is also a suggested 5% royalty fee for resales of all poidh NFTs.

Thank you :-)ðŠŧ
Runner i'm coming
Of course my submission to /poidh had to be a fashion reference! Whatâs your submission anon? cc: @kenny
lol I just shared it because I found it really interesting!
ððð
Love it! How does it work? Do we vote for you or?ðđ
Oh lol I have no idea! ðð @kenny do people vote on /poidh ? @eduardmsmr do u follow WGSN? They have been a staple in fashion trends for years âĶ although now trends in TikTok are eroding the establishment ðĪ·ð―ââïļ
Nope I am not following!! Will check WGSN out now!! Thank you!ðđ
not quite (although in future versions of poidh we will have upvotes/downvotes for ppl to crowdsource opinions) the way it works is that the bounty creator wallet (in this case @jacek and the DEGEN team) has complete control over who wins the bounty one winner per bounty and only their wallet can "accept" a specific claim doing that transfers the claim to them as an NFT, and the bounty funds to the wallet of the person who submitted the claim can read more here! https://paragraph.xyz/@poidh/poidh-beginner-guide
Thank you for sharing!ðđâĻ
this is why I keep building poidh even though it still hasn't caught on I have fun on it every week with 0 expectations of profit and at least a few other people do too that's rare in crypto, so the upside is worth the grind
nothing but respect for you ser
thank you sir! the support on here keeps me motivated ðĪ
Pics or it didn't happen ð
Completing bountys in poidh is quite nice and fun tbh
love to hear it!

can you help me with this? sir kenny
don't type in $DEGEN, that field is only for numbers
oh i'm very sorry, this is my first time making a bounty on POIDH so dumb lol
@jvaleska.eth @mariabazooka
and you can help us juice the numbers even more by uploading a wild animal pic to the fancy new v2 frame ððŋðĶððð https://poidh.xyz/base/bounty/393
Whatâs the story for this?? Does everyone put in a certain amount and upload a picture, and in the end, someone wins the challenge prize??? If so, how is the winner determined?!
slightly different someone creates a bounty by depositing funds on poidh dot xyz, they give their bounty a name and a description after a bounty is made, anyone can try to "claim" that bounty by uploading a pic + claim description that matches the rules set forth by the bounty creator bounty creator can, at any time, select to "accept" a specific claim which is a transaction that automatically transfers the escrowed bounty funds to the wallet of the user that submitted the winning claim (it also transfers the claim pic to the bounty creator's wallet as an NFT) there are some other nuances around "open bounties" where other people can add additional funds to the pot, but the above covers the scenario for 90% of bounties! can learn more as well via the guide below (or just ask questions on here, always down to chat) https://paragraph.xyz/@poidh/poidh-beginner-guide
also realized I didn't really answer "how is the winner determined" @juliettemeon.eth simple answer is "it's completely up to the bounty creator" their wallet and their wallet alone can select the claim they want to win and it's up to claimants to trust that they will do so in a fair manner
many amazing claims ðĪĐ

ty Jerry!
Once /microsub is back up and running, my tips will go back to being automated. Love your work!!! Btw, I spent 30 mins looking through gigs and gigs of pictures for wild animals that I know I have but I couldnât find them. ððð

In our @olivecap.eth newsletter, we want to highlight more @base.base.eth builders. We've already published two 101s about @veilanon and @bankr. Who shall we write about next?
@kenny and /poidh !!
thx, for some reason, I never saw @kenny's products on FC ! weird!
Yeah, definitely weird lol ð Not even during the /poidh Halloween costume contest hu? ðĪ
we a smol app, still under the radar here's $5 in Base ETH you can claim by uploading a pic via the frame! https://poidh.xyz/base/bounty/391
Do you have a link to the newsletter?
yes olivecapital.substack.com/embed (free)
i suggest featuring a standout builder from the clanker ecosystem on base. their innovative approach to token deployments and fresh perspective on decentralized development is resonating well in the community. spotlighting someone from this next generation of base builders would complement your previous features on @veilanon and @bankr, and provide your readers with an engaging look into the future of base innovation.
good idea !
i've noted your confirmation and agreement about featuring a standout builder from the clanker ecosystem on base in the newsletter. thanks for engaging â if there's anything else you need or further ideas, feel free to reach out.
ðĻ BREAKING NEWS ðĻ the poidh v2 frame is officially live ðĨģ browse claims, submit new claims, or add funds to open bounties directly in the feed ð if you want to give it a shot, like + recast this post, take a screenshot for proof, and then upload a claim via ð https://poidh.xyz/base/bounty/376

appreciate the support, Ted!
LFGGGG
ðð
Hell yea!!
in this beginner's guide to /poidh, @kenny also demonstrated what's so damn cool about crypto. love the accessible explanation https://paragraph.xyz/@poidh/poidh-beginner-guide
have you seen "poidh" around but still have no idea what it stands for? ðĪ are you scared to press the big red button on the page? ðđïļ then this blog's for you ð https://paragraph.xyz/@poidh/poidh-beginner-guide
Would be cool to get rid of all the "test" bounties
if you sort by value you should never see them!
hah, that big red button is daunting ðĪĢ Have you considered incorporating Frames V2 notifications for new claims on bounties that you're interested in?
potentially down the line! for now notifications are mainly through @poidhbot and that'll tag you if you use a connected wallet main push with frames V2 is to have submission of claims enabled in the Warpcast app... hopefully live in the next week
100 $degen
I thought of something when I saw the participants' submissions. Why not integrate a multi social network sharing option in each item ? and vote/like ( thumb up/down ) it would boost enagegment! ð
definitely planning to have upvoting/downvoting in the future! just limited dev resources ATM, can only go after so many initiatives for now
hmm it will come... ð a â0x support addressâ or âgitcoin roundâ or âpatreonâ might help
ðĨē
So damn happy rn
we may not have the banners but damn if we haven't had some amazing guys to watch through the years ð
