Steakwallet is building the future of self custodial cryptocurrency management. We have a unique approach to our wallet where we're focusing on what we believe users care most about, yields.
We have a flagship React Native application we've been working hard on, and are about to begin building out our smart contracts and the corresponding ecosystem.
We have two roles open on the engineering side, an experienced React Native engineer and a DeFi native Solidity developer.

Are you referring to the analytics tracking (a la Google Analytics) or enforcing limits on user activity?
For a GA alternative there are many and what you should look for is an analytics provider (if you don't want to self host) that rotates salts. Basically user ip hashed with a random salt that changes every 24 hours is good enough to protect user privacy while allowing you to not count every page view as a unique session.
Of course everyone is counted as a new visitor after 24 hours.
On the rate limiting side, great question. I'm currently writing a series of blog posts around creating your own privacy friendly products (Part 1 is targeted at apps, part 2 will be SaaS) where I'll cover this in detail.
Here's a few key takeaways, if you can provide something without collecting any user data, do it. However for anything involving payment you need to at least know the users email (leaving aside cryptocurrency, I'm a big fan but it's difficult to accept as a bootstrapped business). Additionally rate limiting based on usage (which you therefore need to track) is kind of a given. The best we can do here is make sure user data is encrypted.
This is a nice article, echoes my thoughts a little better than the other post [1] on thd front page right now.
That said, there are strong competitors to Google Analytics, that's the one take I don't agree with.
With Portabella (https://portabella.io) we've gone the restricted free tier route. As a bootstrapped company we have to make that tradeoff between wanting users but also safe guarding against abuse.
I run a business that competes with those companies you mentioned, it's called Portabella (https://portabella.io), an end-to-end encrypted and privacy friendly alternative.
We have a free plan that basically locks you down collaboration wise (limits inviting anyone to your projects).
We haven't had many people convert yet (https://portabella.io/open) but I'm starting to think it'd be better to offer no free plan but a 7 day free trial
Hey HN, recently I shipped PrivaNote (https://privanote.xyz), and also took some time to write a tutorial on how it works.
When looking for new apps to use, I always have a preference for them to be end-to-end encrypted. Hopefully this shows people how easily it can be done and inspires them to create their own.
Portabella (https://portabella.io) is my primary focus (side project wise) right now.
The long and short of it is: privacy friendly and end-to-end encrypted project management. Think Asana/Trello/Jira but end-to-end encrypted.
A few cool things;
- it's an open startup, meaning all our interesting metrics (user sign ups, MRR, etc are public)
- we're about to release our SDK which means more cool projects can integrate with it. It's also how we built our feedback widget (https://portabella.io/feedback), the widget just consumes the SDK
- we offer a 70% discount for non profits and students. Additionally we'll price match based on local purchasing power if our plans are too steep.
I'm doubling down on what I believe in after 2020. I started too many things and wasn't able to commit to them properly.
Highest priority is growing https://portabella.io, we're on the brink of MRR and 2020 was about getting the base features out the door. Content marketing, tutorials, guides will be the goal for me here.
https://block-hooks.com is my other focus, I think it has real potential to take off given the growing ecosystem.
Social media is a tricky one because it's got such a bus factor wrt. usage, however I'm pleasantly surprised at the abundance of products coming out where you (your data, that is) are _not_ the product.
I see in another comment that users have a key pair generated for them. What you can do is fetch other users public keys and encrypt data to them, or better yet, generate a symmetric key for a project and encrypt that to trusted users.
It's how we did it for Portabella (https://portabella.io) anyway but that's not based on Etebase/Etesync, just another e2ee tool
Anyone have insight into how they built this? Custom Gantt solution or you think they bought one?
There are no good and free JS gantt libraries, but many, many paid ones. I've been trying to find a good one for Portabella (https://portabella.io) as they're an essential part of project management platforms, but no luck yet.
Fuck. Shit sucks. I myself have dealt with long lasting (> 1 month) pain and it's horrific. Your whole perspective changes, you think life will never be the same. I can't imagine what it's like when these issues stretch into the years.
Cool! Did you know about https://arcentry.com/ when you started this? Sorry on mobile so I won't look at your commit history to see if you started before.
