Givers (GIVE) Whitepaper

1 / Introduction

1.1 Overview of GIVERS

 

GIVERS (GIVE) is an innovative cryptocurrency that enables people around the world to make donations easily and securely. Built on the Ethereum blockchain, GIVE aims to improve the transparency and efficiency of the donation process. By using GIVE, donors can be confident that their donations will reach the intended organizations.

 

1.2 The Need for a Donation Platform

 

Currently, many donation platforms exist, but they may lack transparency in the management and distribution of funds. Donors find it difficult to verify whether their donations are being used appropriately, and there is also a risk of embezzlement. To solve these problems, a highly transparent donation platform utilizing blockchain technology is needed.

 

1.3 Leveraging Blockchain Technology

 

GIVERS is built on the Ethereum blockchain. By leveraging blockchain technology, GIVE ensures transparency and traceability in the donation process. Donors can verify how their donations are being used on the blockchain, preventing embezzlement and misuse of funds.

 

GIVERS aims to revolutionize the donation process and contribute to the development of a donation culture. By providing a highly transparent donation platform utilizing blockchain technology, GIVE creates an environment where more people can participate in donations with confidence. GIVE acts as a bridge connecting donors and beneficiaries, enabling people worldwide to contribute to building a better society.

2 / Features of GIVERS

2.1 Token Specifications

 

GIVERS is a cryptocurrency issued on the Ethereum blockchain. The token name is GIVERS, and the symbol is GIVE. The Ethereum blockchain was chosen to automate the donation process and ensure transparency.

 

2.2 Token Issuance

 

The total supply of GIVE is 10 billion tokens. There will be only an initial issuance, with no additional issuance. The issuance schedule is currently under consideration, but a token presale on PinkSale and listing on Uniswap are planned.

 

2.3 Token Distribution

 

The distribution of GIVE tokens is as follows:

 

PinkSale(Presale) release: 20.00%

Liquidity release: 12.00%

Air drop: 1.00%

Team allocation: 20.00% (1-year lockup)

Partnerships: 5.00%

Ecosystem maintenance: 30.00%

Marketing & Development: 10.00%

Advisory: 2.00%

 

This distribution aims to manage the circulation of GIVE appropriately and adjust liquidity to ensure the long-term development of the project.

 

2.4 Transaction Fees

 

There are no fees for GIVE transactions. Buyers only need to cover the Ethereum gas fees. This aims to make the token user-friendly.

 

2.5 Token Burns

 

GIVERS plans to burn 10-15% of the tokens within 3 months of issuance. Thereafter, token burns will be conducted periodically using the revenue from the donation platform to increase the token's value.

 

2.6 Lockup

 

The tokens allocated to the team will be fully locked up for 1 year from issuance. This demonstrates the team's commitment and enhances the project's credibility.

​

2.7 Utility

Based on the donation amount, titles such as "Platinum Supporter," "Gold Supporter," "Silver Supporter," and "Bronze Supporter" will be granted. 

​

An online community exclusively for top donors will be established, providing them with the latest information about the recipient organizations and a space for interaction with other top donors. Through this community, networking among top donors will be facilitated, strengthening the overall unity of the $GIVERS community.

​

5) Best GIVERS Award

​

An annual awards ceremony will be held, inviting top donors, and the event will be publicized in the media. This will not only widely acknowledge the accomplishments of the top donors but also increase the recognition of the $GIVERS platform.

A specially designed limited-edition NFT and a stylish shield honoring the donor's contributions will be presented, signifying their special status within the $GIVERS community.

As the project progresses, the operational fee and token burning percentages might be adjusted to ensure the long-term sustainability and effectiveness of the ecosystem.
