Youblob - Online Makerspace

I built something.
Im not sure where to post this, so I will just use this channel :sweat_smile:
I would love to get some feedback on the solution, and perhaps a free security audit of some sort. Since this project have never gotten funded, I don’t have much to spare, I just built it anyway because I view this as a necessity to progress towards Industry 5.0.
I am using Aiken, Lace, Blockfrost and Arweave

Project Description: Youblob is revolutionizing the maker economy by connecting creators, innovators, makerspaces, schools, manufacturers, and communities in a collaborative ecosystem where knowledge sharing generates real income. We’re enabling open collaboration that finally embraces everyone, democratizing innovation, and creating cross-border collaboration without requiring wealth, connections, age restrictions, or banking infrastructure. If you can create, you can earn. Putting the Makers in the front seat of innovation in the open source space!

You needed an International solution that embrace the use of Cardano?
Well, Youblob now supports 26 languages. :heart:

Bhutan (Dzongkha) ~640K people
Mongolian ~5 million people
Swahili ~6 million people (+92 million as a second language)
Khmer ~20 million people
Nepali ~32 million people
Ukranian ~39 million people
Burmese ~43 million people
Polish ~43 million people
Thai ~71 million people
Korean ~81 million people
Italian ~85 million people
Turkish ~91 million people
German ~95 million people
Vietnamese ~97 million people
Japanese ~123 million people
Russian ~210 million people
Indonesian ~255 million people
Portugese ~267 million people
Bengali ~284 million people
Malaysian ~290 million people
French ~312 million people
Arabic ~411 million people
Hindi ~610 million people
Spanish ~636 million people
Chinese ~1.4 billion people

This is part of our growing effort to support open global collaboration around ideas.
Please let me know if we should add some more that are missing.











Since one of our main goals is to support undeveloped countries, we still have a ~2.6 Billion Gap, so our next effort is to also include the Sub-Saharan Africa (Hausa (~100M), Yoruba (~50M), Igbo (~30M), Amharic (~60M Ethiopia), Oromo (~40M), Zulu, Xhosa, Somali etc. As our Swahili integration only covered East Africa.

And after that we will move over to South Asia — to cover Urdu (~70M), Punjabi (~125M), Tamil (~80M), Telugu (~95M) and Marathi (~95M)

We now support 44 languages in total:

Since I am more or less finished with Youblob.com now for our MVP, I’ve started a side-quest to align everything with Midnight, allowing users to operate anonymously around the same features found on Youblob, but everything written in Haskell, instead of JS.

So I created https://haskelia.io/, to test different functions for this.

I’ve now aligned Guilds in our solution to work the same as a SPO - Stake Pool Operator
You can read more about it on our Discord - Patch Notes Youblob

Blueprint NFTs can now be sold and auctioned on Youblob.com | Blueprint NFT.

Sell or Auction after converting a blueprint to an NFT, your dashboard will then show Sell NFT and Auction NFT . Fixed price or timed auction (1–30 days) with live countdown, bid history, and automatic settlement.

As a Blueprint Author you keep 6% royalties on every future resale , forever!
(if you use the Inheritance function we have incorporated, even your grandchildren can earn from your ideas.)

Digital receipt for physical artifacts
If your blueprint produces something unique — a painting, a wood statue, a forged blade — the NFT is its blockchain-verified certificate of authenticity. Proof of who made it, how, and that it’s the original.

My suggestion though would be, don’t sell your Blueprints for a quick buck if they generate income.Keep them, and instead just set up the inheritance function so you are safe.

The algorithm is set to put Makers first, so when AI starts publishing ideas, it will reuse officially published Blueprints where they are found, and only use own where there are missing functions for our Large Prototyping Model. (yes, I am building a LLM i.e LPM as well)

Another cool feature that was implemented is that;

  • Whomever publishes a Blueprint.
  • Everyone is able to build that and sell it.
  • The Blueprint Owner earns a 10% of the sale price, every time their product is sold around the world, locally from other Makers. So lets say you publish how to make a Clay pot with a cool unique design a dude from Texas. A Norwegian just click “Build it” and after it is built it will be added to the marketplace under the same product from the Texan, they now have a new distribution channel around their idea/solution without any effort, other than publishing a Blueprint.
  • Please note that clicking on “Build it” also updates your warehouse/garage on missing components, or how many you can build of it before running out of x.
