Understanding how can a blockchain based project rebuild trust in the philanthropic sector and simplify the way we donate to all types of projects and causes
For most of the people, a token represents a symbol, a piece of metal or plastic that is used in casinos (or games) or a voucher. However, a token is a term that goes hand in hand with the latest technological development and trends - especially the blockchain and cryptocurrency. Think of it as a new mechanism that fuels all interactions (including transactions and other operations) between participants in a platform, removing the need to work with fiat money or depend on intermediaries.
Until now, no one has ever come up with the idea of bringing all the benefits of the blockchain into the philanthropy industry (according to our knowledge, of course). Thus, Humancoin seems to be a revolutionary project that not only promotes the concept of donating cryptocurrencies to those who are in need of all the help they can get but also aims to incorporate the retail e-commerce industry, to boost the involvement of donors from all over the world and recreate trust in this sector.
Key facts and numbers that make Humancoin so relevant in the time we live in
Without spending too much time with technical aspects (that may or not may be very useful while reading such a brief review), it’s essential to have a quick look at some the things that made Humancoin catch our attention:
