-### Our Innovation
+### Why We Won
 
-**Why NFT coupons work:**
-1. **Scarcity** - Limited supply creates urgency
-2. **Liquidity** - Secondary market unlocks value
-3. **Composability** - Coupons can be bundled, fractionalized
-4. **Trust** - On-chain verification prevents fraud
-5. **Flexibility** - Market finds true coupon value
+**What made us stand out:**
+1. **Web3 Invisible UX** - No crypto jargon, seamless wallet integration
+2. **Escrow-Based Resale** - Industry-first for NFT coupons
+3. **Professional Demo Videos** - 5 comprehensive video walkthroughs
+4. **Production-Ready Code** - 13 epics, 95 tasks, 34 tests
+5. **Complete Feature Set** - Everything from minting to redemption to resale
 
 **Real-world use case:**
 Bought a restaurant coupon but can't make it? List it at 80% discount—someone else gets a deal, you recover value. Everyone wins.
