What are Solutions?

Solutions are the products created based on ideas from the community.

Solution-Providers

Solutions are crafted by Solution-Providers, typically developers.

Usually, Solution-Providers will start working on Solutions once the ideas in a topic have gathered enough Pledges (tokens) from users who wish to have that product delivered.

Selection Process

Most often, developers will pick the ideas within a Topic with the highest total ICP pledged, to maximize their rewards upon delivering a product and increase the likelihood of satisfying users.

Timing of Solution Creation

Developers might opt to create the Solution in advance, before starting their work, or to create the solution only at the time of delivery.

The recommended approach is to create the Solutions in advance, allowing developers to showcase their ongoing work, share updates, and gather community feedback during the development phase. This approach helps gauge community sentiment. For example: The developer might have overlooked an idea that the community deems essential to the Topic, allowing for adjustments before the final product is delivered.
