Web3 - A Disruptive Tool For Social Impact

Cryptocurrency is more than just an investment. Cryptocurrency, blockchain, and web3 are generational technologies that have the potential to change the world for the better. These ground-breaking technologies will positively disrupt nearly all aspects of our lives in the coming decades: the internet, our financial systems, supply chains, health care, and everything in between. From a social impact lens, blockchain is the single greatest development since the internet.

It has the potential to revolutionize the way aid is disbursed, how funds are raised by non-profits and charitable causes, how communities and collectives organize and engage in self-governance, how CO2 is tracked and managed, how important financial services are delivered to the nearly 2 billion unbanked people around the world, and much more. We are only just scratching the surface of the intersections between web3 and social good.

Crypto Altruism is the leading platform for content highlighting the social impact use cases of web3 and the extraordinary organizations and projects that are using this technology to change the world. Through our blog, podcast, and educational resources, we elevate stories of how crypto, blockchain, NFTs, DAOs, and other web3 innovations are being used all over the world for novel and inspiring use cases.
