🗣 Public Purpose: The True Soul of Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency -- JCCSF (& Lunch)
🔆 Learn how cryptocurrency can positively change the lives of many in our global society.
Amidst all the discussion about bitcoin and cryptocurrency being used for financial speculation, market manipulation, and crime, it’s often overlooked that its origins were actually altruistic. We'll view the record and explore a more wholistic view of cryptocurrency beyond the headlines and how the technology can be used for humanitarian impact. We’ll look at real-world examples of crypto being used
▪︎ to deliver aid efficiently in conflict zones
▪︎ to empower the global “unbanked population”
▪︎ to enable fast, low-cost cross-border remittances
▪︎ and to increase transparency in charity funding flows.
Further, we’ll examine ethical uses, case studies from non-governmental organizations and social enterprises, as well as practical guidelines for anyone considering a humanitarian crypto project.
▪︎ Bebo White is retired from the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, the U.S. national laboratory for high-energy physics and basic energy science at Stanford University, where he worked as a computational physicist.
