 EarthFund Protocol: A Decentralized Global Giving & Governance Network

Whitepaper sss1.0 Author: Subasish Samal
Date: June 2025


Abstract

EarthFund Protocol is a decentralized global funding and governance platform designed to give power back to the people. By allowing individuals to donate a fraction of their income directly to causes they believe in — through blockchain-powered smart contracts — this protocol eliminates corruption, increases transparency, and puts financial governance in the hands of citizens, not governments.


Vision

To create a world where social impact funding is decentralized, transparent, and driven by community consensus.

Mission

Empower citizens globally to allocate a small portion of their income directly to verified causes through smart contracts, tracked and voted upon using blockchain governance.


Problem

  • Government and NGO funds are often delayed or misused.

  • Donors lack transparency in how their contributions are used.

  • Centralized decision-making lacks real-time public input.

  • There's no global, trustless infrastructure to directly fund verified social causes.


Solution: EarthFund Protocol

A decentralized application (dApp) that enables:

  • Individuals and companies to donate 1% (or any amount) of their income.

  • Smart contracts to hold and release funds transparently.

  • Projects and causes to be proposed, verified, and voted upon by token holders.

  • Public, real-time tracking of funds and project completion.


Core Features

1. EarthCoin (EFC)
A native ERC-20 token used for:

  • Voting

  • Rewards for donors and validators

  • Incentives for impact creators

2. DAO Governance

  • Token holders vote on which projects get funded

  • Stake-based consensus model

3. Cause Registry Smart Contract

  • Stores proposed projects with metadata

  • Includes funding goals, timelines, impact goals

4. Transparent Fund Vault

  • Funds are released only upon community approval

  • Milestone-based payment system

5. Proof of Impact

  • Beneficiaries must submit real-world proof (images, receipts, reports)

  • Verified via Chainlink oracles and community review


Architecture Overview

Frontend: React + Tailwind CSS
Backend: Node.js + MongoDB
Smart Contracts: Solidity, deployed on Polygon
Wallet: MetaMask / WalletConnect
Data Storage: IPFS for immutable data, MongoDB for off-chain metadata


Tokenomics
