The problem

Consensys set a MetaMask problem statement at Inter IIT Tech Meet 11.0: ads inside a wallet, without the wallet or an ad network tracking the user.

The idea

alphaQ puts the ad logic in a MetaMask Snap, so targeting happens on the user’s side and the platform never sees a profile. Advertisers manage campaigns in a Next.js app backed by MongoDB.

Built with

A team from IIT Guwahati over the Inter IIT build window.

Outcome

Silver medal at Inter IIT Tech Meet 11.0.
