RE: Steemit: A transparent solution for sustainable change

in #steemfest7 years ago

There should be a cryptocurrency for charity work that offers transparency what it is being used for. Where you could check up the website to see exactly where it ended up. Without manipulation. That would some powerful coin, wouldn't it, @surfermarly. You are the person who got this awesome logo the other day, aren't you. I remember your name.

Sort:  

hey - sorry to jump in on this uninvitedly, but i do think there is sth like this - please check out Giveth by Griff Green! Was the first thing that came to my mind when i read this.

Hey @nomadnessie, thanks for the hint. I googled it and found http://giveth.io. It looks indeed like what we were talking about.

yep, thats the one. And as far as i know, Griff is a pretty great guy!

Thanks for the information @nomadnessie

I've followed Geoff and Giveth on T. He needs to make his way over here I think! Seems to be using Twitter, Linked in, and Burning Man 2017! To raise awareness.

Thanks also for the RS!

if you can convince him to come, that would be epic!

Why can't steemit be that coin? :-)
You hit the nail! Transparency is key when it comes to charity work. There shouldn't be any people on the way being able to exploit goodness in order to fill their own pockets.

Yeah, I was the lucky one who was provided with a terrific new logo the other day...:-)

Well, maybe Steemit could be that coin. But right now you need a lot of Steem Power to give significant upvotes on order to do charity. But maybe a charity-trail could help or a 3rd party app that collects fees and uses them appropriately.

That would be excellent - charitycoin :D

Meanwhile, we've got other options!

Maybe it could be done with Steemit. All we need is an new 3rd party app putting a system on top of Steem. Could work weel since nobody needs to pay real money. But requires the individual to have significant amount of Steem Power, so maybe not.

On the small scale we are working toward to start with, I'd back Steemit 100%

To scale up we'd perhaps need more Steemians out in the field but lets not run before we are walking! :D
