Inspiration

There are many areas where local communities struggle, in many cases all over the world has been proven that local currencies can help to kickstart their economy again, the blockchain can bring transparency, privacy, and real decentralization to their economies

What it does

We empower community managers to kickstart the economy of their communities by issuing their own tokens, in order to favor local activities, we also empower them to promote sustainable behaviour. Our system also looks on the other end at commercial organizations by providing them with the means to increase their customer loyalty in a transparent and readily GDPR compliant fashion

How we built it

We used bootstrap for the dashboard and Web3 API for connecting to Ethereum and call the contract to issue tokens. As for the blockchain layer our smart contracts run on the Ethereum network and are written in solidity. We currently implement a non fungible token at the current moment based on the ERC721 specification
