Worldwide unconditional basic income

We are exploring the possibilities of a worldwide unconditional basic income for everyone, or as we like to call it a WUBI. Many local UBI pilots have demonstrated that unconditional basic income is an effective way to combat poverty. Ending poverty in all its forms everywhere is the first one of all 17 Sustainable Develepmont Goals SDGs for 2030. It’s the first one because ending poverty will have a spin-off effect on many of the other SDGs. So it’s high time to establish UBI worldwide to reach this goal.

So our task here for now is to explore the most promising initiatives to establish a UNI worldwide.

Glo Dollar

Glo is a fully backed stablecoin pegged to the US dollar. Like other stablecoin companies, they earn interest from our reserves. The difference is that they are non-profit: they give all of the profit away to public goods and charity. One of the main charities they support is GiveDirectly with their basic income program.

You can help generate basic income for people in extreme poverty simply by owning Glo. More Glo adoption means more basic income for more people.

Circles

Circles proposes to be the blockchain’s native UBI money system. It has its own built-in resistance to fake accounts and anyone can join the network at any time without asking permission from anyone. It has been designed with the expectation that it will be bootstrapped in a completely organic and grassroots fashion. Circles is an entirely new way of looking at the nature of money and what value exchange means in a post-UBI future.
At the moment Circles is undergoing some restructuring and work is being done to create version 2. But don’t wait for that. Just start collecting your own Circles on your phone.
