What is TribeToken ?
TribeToken is a decentralized digital charity token that is based on Ethereum’s Blockchain for funding charity projects that help the society, nature, wildlife using Tokens. TribeToken allows anyone, at any time, from any modern device, from any place in the world that has an Internet connection to contribute in charity or to create a charity project with minimal fees, Inflation-proof and fully decentralized, without any authority controlling the Tokens. TribeToken uses Ethereum‘s Blockchain to achieve almost instant transactions between charity projects.
Our goal is to create a global currency for charity projects and to help people who need help in any place in the world, to create a decentralized Token so anyone could acquire TribeToken without limitations in different countries and to create a decentralized network of projects which are stored on the Ethereum‘s Blockchain and can be controlled by a decentralized voting system.
Definition of Charity
Charity - an organization set up to provide help and raise money for those in need, the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need, a set of people who raise money to give those who need it to develop infrastructure, stop diseases, improve living conditions. Participants in a charity, regardless of the donated sum, are called donors, and the popular belief is that participation doesn’t require large sums – which is true, but as any donation, the sum is big for those who are in need of help.
Definition of Decentralization
Decentralization means to distribute the administrative powers and/or functions away from a one point of regulation over to multiple ones. For Tokens this applies as freedom from any controlling entity such as a government or a banking institution as the control passes over to you and everyone using the Token.
How Charity Helps People ?
When people think about other developing countries, they don’t think that we, as individuals, can help that much, but actually the truth is that every single donation can make a huge difference. A small sum of 34 dollars can supply enough fresh water for a week to a person, if enough people donated then fresh water could become abundant in rural or poor regions.
Benefits in Infrastructure
Charity projects help people in developing countries to build hospitals, schools, universities, police stations, fire departments, better transport, roads, airports and many more things.
- Schools and universities help people expand their knowledge which also leads to better infrastructure.
- Police stations will help to stop theft, murder, cyber-crime which will make the country more stable.
- Fire departments will help prevent accidental and fires which would destroy any resources.
- Better transport, roads and airports will lead to more tourists and better communication with other people.
Our help in charity
By creating TribeToken we want to set up a platform for charity projects to be crowdfunded by donations from people around the globe, the funds would be transferred in the way of Tokens from the donor to the charity, nearly instantly.
Due to the nature of Tokens being decentralized, thus regulated by everyone, this would give more transparency, compared to more traditional ways of donating, to how much of the actual funds end up to the charity.
By also having a feedback system, the charity can show as on how the received funds were used, along with a selection of media posts that describe their progress and events, the donors will be able to see exactly what was achieved by the charity project.
Contributions on TribeToken’s charity platform
On the TribeToken platform you can donate to charities and create your own charity. Registered charity organizations will receive a verified tag on the platform. There will be a minimum fee in place just to cover our transaction costs. There will also be a feedback system in place to ensure that no one will abuse the platform.
Charity creators can post their progress on their sub-blog which will be included when they create a charity based on our platform. Also they can upload media and reply to people that have questions about their charity.
Donors can rate the charities and donate TribeToken to any charity (even unverified) that they wish, even just by transferring TribeToken from an exchange to the platform’s web wallet.
The Platform Backend
The main platform is web based and as of writing, is in the Pre-Alpha stage, it mostly uses PHP 7. No framework is currently used, but there are plans on moving the platform to be based on “Symfony Framework”.
The automation is currently handled with “CRON jobs” on the server side to periodically check the contract for new transactions and to categorize them appropriately on the platform’s database. The database is “MariaDB”, because it provides better security and more frequent updates than the
parent version of it, namely “MySQL DB”.
More dynamic functionality such as the platform’s chat uses JavaScript/JQuery.
There are currently no phone versions, these are planned for the Beta stage of the development and will be developed to have all the functionality as the web platform. The platform’s smart contract is written in solidity and the source code for the contract and the platform will be available for review on our GitHub.

ROADMAP
1. Tribe One
For our first release, we are aiming to bring out the decentralized charity platform where you can donate to charity projects and create them using TribeToken.
2. Tribe Two
In our second release, we want to focus on mobile app usage off the platform. By creating a decentralized web application that enables you to use the platform on any device available with decentralization.
3. Tribe Three
In the third release, we want to activate the Tribe Economy. Our team will be heading to undeveloped countries to create a local economy by using TribeTokens and we will keep updating the platform with new features.
When we start developing we will release a public roadmap to show what we are currently working on in real-time.
