How it's made

Challenges we ran into ### Integrating Privy & ZeroDev Smart Account to Fanster Before Smart Account (AA), you'd interact directly with contract through your EOA. With Smart Account, the infrastructure is designed for the bundler to be the one that interacts with contract (submitting a transaction) on behalf of the Smart Account. The bundler would need to carry a signature representing the respective Smart Account, so we solve this problem by generating a signature proof on behalf of the Smart Account to verify contract interaction with ECDSA method verification. ### Integrating Local Payment Gateway with Fanster's Minting Membership NFT Mechanism We faced challenges integrating a local payment gateway for minting NFTs. Ultimately, we implemented a queue system that triggers the mint function upon successful payment. Although this method takes longer than an asynchronous approach, it is safer as it allows for retries.
