General Manager
Our project strives to build, advocate for, and maintain the Salt Pound, a framework for making payments and storing wealth, designed to empower individuals in vulnerable communities and foster sustainable economic growth in developing countries.
The Salt Pound is used to transfer wealth from people who want to share it, to the people who need it. The system is designed to be fast, secure and transparent.
The Salt Pound is based on two independent components: The Exonum blockchain framework, and a physical good: natural salt.
The project fusions two existing ideas: Electronic currencies and local, community-powered currencies to create a full-blown, failsafe trust network.
Our General Assembly on January 5th 2018 approved to set up two pilot projects in 2018-2019: Las Coloradas, Yucatán, Mexico, and Zahle, Bekaa Valley, Lebanon.
We are a registered Non-Profit. Our statutes are public, as well as the identities of our management. Also, our codebase is public and auditable.
We rely on committed development experts, no-nonsense scholars, programmers, marketers, administrators, and volunteers in general, so get in touch.
