Bidco is a Trustless Sealed Bid Auction platform that aims to create a seamless and user-friendly online marketplace that connects buyers and sellers across Africa using zk proofs and without the need for intermediary trust.
To become Africa's leading and most trusted online marketplace powered by cryptocurrency, empowering communities with accessible, efficient, and secure e-commerce platforms.

- Decentralized: By utilizing implementations using ZK proofs, the auction takes advantage of decentralized infrastructure, eliminating reliance on a central authority.
- Immutable Record: All bid submissions and auction outcomes are stored securely, creating an immutable record of the auction for auditing purposes.
- Secure and Efficient: The auction design prioritizes security, keeping bidder information confidential, and operates with high efficiency, minimizing transaction costs and delays.
