We are a local Chapter within the broader **GreenPill Network**, with a mission of turning Degens into Regens.\n\nWe started this community with an aim at fostering a resilient and inclusive local economy through innovative technology and community engagement. Our primary focus is on running a **weekly meetup** for all web3 builders  in Toronto, where we coordinate, help each other and generally chat about how we can make the world a better place. We call it **\"web3 for good\"**, to distinguish it from the crypto-bros who are more interested in price action and shilling. These meetups have been running weekly **since Aug 2024**.\n\n**We also build.** Our projects focus around creating a **local circular economy** that emphasizes gifting, donations, and tipping, with a particular emphasis on supporting panhandlers and vulnerable populations. By leveraging blockchain technology and digital platforms, GreenPill TO strives to make financial transactions more accessible and impactful for everyone in the community - regardless of their prior knowledge of crypto and with no need to learn anything about blockchain unless they want to.\n\n\n## Mission\n\nOur mission at GreenPill TO is to **build a vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable local economy in Toronto**. We aim to harness the power of web3 technology to create **post-capitalist financial tools** that empower individuals, support local businesses, and foster a culture of giving and community support. Through our initiatives, we strive to turn the tide on economic disparity and ensure that no one is left behind in the digital age. \n\nGreenPill TO endeavors to reclaim the positive potential of cryptocurrency, providing a safe haven for ethical innovators to connect, collaborate, and create solutions that benefit society as a whole.\n\n\n## Problem\n\nThe broader world of cryptocurrency faces significant challenges. Many people associate crypto with scams, rug pulls, and fraudulent schemes, which has tarnished its reputation. Crypto is seen as out of reach from those who could benefit from it the most, when so many projects assume that you start with money to \"invest\" in their ponzis and rugpulls. \n\nDespite this, a substantial community of individuals remain who see the potential of blockchain technology to drive positive social change. However, these well-meaning individuals often lack a safe, trustworthy space to collaborate and develop their ideas. GreenPill TO seeks to fill this void by providing a reliable community and platform where ethical and impactful projects can thrive.\n\n## Solution\n\nGreenPill TO addresses these problems by providing a **community for value-aligned hackers, dreamers and doers**. We help each other by coming together frequently and coordinating. We ideate, architect problem solve together. We manage, participate in and sponsor hackathon projects and BUIDLs. We develop a suite of digital tools designed to facilitate easy and secure transactions. Join us on Luma: https://lu.ma/GreenPillTO\n\n\n## Projects\n\nWe are involved in running four concurrent flagship projects:\n\n1. **CUBID Protocol**, a proof-of-personhood and bot-proofing protocols with easy APIs for develpers to leverage. https://www.cubid.me/\n2. **The Toronto Coin**, a local cryptocurrency that encourages spending within the community. https://www.tcoin.me/\n3. **ChainCrew**, a platform for \"web2 DAOs\", allowing anyone to create and set up their own \"Crew\" within which anyone can handle real money in a DAO-like setting with community and governance features. https://chaincrew.xyz/\n4. **Tipping & Panhandler App** that enables digital tipping and donations. https://www.sparechange.tips/\n\nThese tools ensure that people of Toronto (and the world) can self-organize and self-govern. They help Torontonians support panhandlers and local businesses, even without carrying physical cash. \n\n\n## Other\n\nGreenPillTO has developed partnerships with prominent Toronto institutions such as **Toronto DAO** (https://www.tdao.to/) and the **Procent Foundation** (https://www.procent.foundation/)\n\nAdditionally, our participation in hackathons like ETH Toronto and BlockHack help us continuously innovate and refine our solutions to better serve the community.\n\nYou can find us here:\n- Telegram: https://t.me/+3zWluXm3FSViYmIx\n- Luma: https://lu.ma/GreenPillTO \n- Website: https://greenpill.to/ \n- KarmaGap: https://gap.karmahq.xyz/project/greenpill-to-toronto-ontario\n- Twitter: https://twitter.com/GreenPillTO \n- CharmVerse: https://app.charmverse.io/greenpill-network/greenpill-toronto-6638482403625396", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectGithub": "GreenPill-TO", "projectTwitter": "GreenPillTO"}
