Please describe your proposed solution

CSWAP will tokenize Steam gaming assets on Cardano via an integration with the Steam API. This will enable the tradability of popular web2 assets alongside those of Cardano gaming projects.

Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community

Tokenizing Steam gaming assets on Cardano bridges Web2 and Web3, attracting new users to Cardano's ecosystem. It increases liquidity and utility by enabling trading of popular Steam assets as NFTs. This integration supports collaboration between Cardano and traditional gaming communities, boosting Cardano's appeal for developers and expanding the use cases for NFTs. It helps educate users on blockchain benefits, making Cardano a more versatile and attractive platform for digital economies.

What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability? How do you intend to validate if your approach is feasible?

CSWAP Systems has delivered innovative solutions on the Cardano blockchain, including the NFT/RWA DEX, cswap.market, which has surpassed 3M ADA in volume with thousands of transactions. We are among the first to bring real-world assets to Cardano, and the only team offering DEX functionality for RWAs.

Jon Kravetz is a SME on RWAs. He recently led the RWA round table discussion hosted by Cardano Paul. Link: <https://x.com/Cardano/status/1836457675803992389>

CSWAP Systems brings senior-level experience from companies like Nike, Best Buy, and Airbus. Jon Kravetz has led development teams, resulting in seven-figure solutions for enterprises such as AstraZeneca and Rexel.

CSWAP Systems uses agile methodologies in its development process, with a boutique consulting angle. This allows our team to remain lean and deliver high quality solutions. Here are some processes we incorporate into our planning, design, and development phases.

1) Business requirements gathering.

2) Gap analysis.

3) Functionality matrix/scorecard including ease of implementation, user value, and product value.

4) Comprehensive Screen Design Documentation including wireframes and functional requirements.

5) Transparent and community development process.

What are the key milestones you need to achieve in order to complete your project successfully?
