Hi everyone! I’m currently working on Arka, a Mini App that aims to make group payments simple and social inside Nimiq Pay. The idea came from a pretty common problem: paying someone can be fast, but organizing a group payment is still annoying. Someone has to calculate how much each person owes, remind everyone to pay and keep track of who is still missing. With Arka, one person creates a shared payment for something like a dinner, trip, group gift or event. They can invite everyone through a QR code, link or join code, choose how the cost will be divided, and each member can see exactly how much they need to pay. Every contribution is tracked inside the Arka, so the group can easily see who has paid and who is still pending. Once the full amount has been collected, the payment can be settled through Nimiq Pay. For the first version, contributions would be held securely in escrow and released once the group payment is ready to be settled. I would also like to include a more social and fun payment mode. Have you seen those TikTok or Instagram videos where a group gives their credit cards to a waiter and asks them to randomly choose who pays the entire bill? Arka could offer a similar optional experience called Who’s Treating? If every member agrees to participate, the app selects one person from the group. That person would then confirm whether they want to cover the payment before anything is processed. I think this could make the experience more memorable and give friends another fun way to use NIM together, while still keeping the process transparent and based on everyone’s consent. The goal is not to create just another bill-splitting app. I want Arka to become the social payment layer for Nimiq Pay, making NIM easier to use in real situations with friends. Would you actually use something like this? Which use case sounds most useful to you: splitting restaurant bills, organizing trips, collecting money for gifts, creating group funds or using the Who’s Treating? mode?

Hi everyone! I’m currently working on Nimiq Arcade, a Mini App designed to make gaming more fun, competitive, and rewarding inside the Nimiq ecosystem. The idea is simple: bring together a collection of games that anyone can jump into in seconds, while giving players the opportunity to earn NIM as they play. Nimiq Arcade will feature 20+ games across different genres, including classic arcade games, brain games, action games, and puzzles. Whether you want to challenge yourself, compete with friends, or just pass the time, there will always be something to play. Players will be able to choose between online multiplayer and local multiplayer, making it easy to enjoy games with friends wherever they are. Some games will focus on quick matches, while others will reward strategy, skill, and high scores. To make the experience even more engaging, players can earn NIM rewards by completing challenges, participating in tournaments, climbing leaderboards, or achieving milestones. The goal is to create a place where gaming feels rewarding without sacrificing fun. Rather than being just another collection of browser games, I want Nimiq Arcade to become the go-to gaming hub within Nimiq Pay—a place where people discover new games, compete with friends, and earn crypto naturally through gameplay. I’d love to hear your thoughts! - Which game genres would you play the most? - Would you rather compete against friends or random players online? - What kinds of rewards or tournaments would keep you coming back? - Are there any classic games or new ideas you’d love to see included? Honest feedback is always appreciated! 🎮

Hi, quick question I saw in the docs that the first cycle starts around July 4–5. Does that mean the projects are evaluated on that date, or that we have around one month from that date to build and submit our project? Just want to confirm so I don’t misunderstand the deadline. Thanks!
