Nets donated: 0 Lives saved: 0 Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: Vegan97 on September 29, 2017, 09:24:34 AM I guess the site has a built-in mining script.
Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: anton_lotos on September 29, 2017, 09:29:09 AM Yeah exactly. We use coin-hive to mine monero with javascript, convert to bitcoin, and then donate to Anti Malaria Foundation.

We use coin-hive to mine monero with javascript, convert to bitcoin, and then donate to Anti Malaria Foundation. Why then you didn't mention that in you OP & try to take advantage of us ?Besides there is nothing that proves that you'll " donate " those earnings to any mentioned (or not mentioned) charity ? So what's the point of this turn around while you could've been so straight, you could've got lots of users if you were hones. Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: anton_lotos on September 29, 2017, 10:55:32 AM It is mentioned in the OP... ???

Is it kind of fundation where we can make donations and website script in some way is connected with miners? How? Can you give some examples, please. Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: anton_lotos on September 29, 2017, 11:04:27 AM @fachant Sure...
1. We use https://coin-hive.com (https://coin-hive.com) which uses your CPU to mine Monero 2. Everything mined pooled together and donated to https://www.againstmalaria.com/ (https://www.againstmalaria.com/) (the #1 rated charity) You can watch distribution videos here: https://www.againstmalaria.com/Distribution_Videos.aspx (https://www.againstmalaria.com/Distribution_Videos.aspx) So basically, you are converting energy into mosquito nets.

https://www.tabsagainstmalaria.com (https://www.tabsagainstmalaria.com) by using our cpu will get some decent rewards but its not convincing that you can save a life after you mine monero. Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: anton_lotos on September 29, 2017, 02:44:23 PM @carlisle1 thanks, that's a good point.
So, $2.50 buys and distributes a mosquito net. A conservative estimate, for how many nets you need to save a life comes from here: The world's best charity can save a life for $3,337.06 http://www.businessinsider.com/the-worlds-best-charity-can-save-a-life-for-333706-and-thats-a-steal-2015-7 (http://www.businessinsider.com/the-worlds-best-charity-can-save-a-life-for-333706-and-thats-a-steal-2015-7) Quote AMF is one of only a handful of charities that meet the organization's strict criteria, says Catherine Hollander, an outreach associate at GiveWell. That means it can then be put under heavy scrutiny from the non-profit's research arm to root out how far a dollar actually goes. The final number after copious number crunching: $3,337.06. 100% of the money they get buys nets. Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: Zeeks on September 29, 2017, 02:49:09 PM You basically want to get people to mine for you so you can donate the money? People might as well save their cpu and send a dollar over to the charity of their choice.
Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: anton_lotos on September 29, 2017, 02:56:39 PM @zeeks A lot of people won't send money but they will keep a tab open.
Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: redectro on September 29, 2017, 03:00:01 PM I like the concept, i'm hoping that the project is legitimate though :-\ This would be a very generous thing to do for those children which have to suffer through those conditions. Please promise to donate those earnings to your said source, would be an extremely disturbing way of fraud if you chose to not donate :(

Our names and reputations are behind this. We are donating everything except server costs. I'm looking for a way to make donations totally transparent and automatic, and happy to take suggestions. Our current model is using this: 1. https://xmr.to to automatically transfer the monero into bitcoin 2. then, making that bitcoin wallet public 3. and then, using bitpay's API (with help from Anti Malaria Foundation) automatically donating to them I'm not sure this will be sufficient, but I suppose this way anyone can verify the amount of bitcoin going in, and where it is going. Very much happy to get feedback on how to do this. Looking for a simple solution that will make all funds 100% transparent. I don't think smart contracts exist for monero, or we would probably go that route. What do you think? Would #1, #2, #3 be good enough for users to verify donations? Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: itasannah on September 29, 2017, 03:20:36 PM Interesting idea, helping peoples just by doing a single click, I think everyone would easily willing to do it.
Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: themathiasmiller on September 29, 2017, 03:38:28 PM Reading your project is very fascinating to me, living in asia where there are so many malaria cases, this project will be very helpful to a lot of people in here. I like the fact that it's very easy for people to help, just by opening a tab they can not just save a life but make someone else's life a whole alot better, but just like the rest of the people on here I also have my doubts. It's kind of hard to help and open a tab when I don't know if you're legitimate or not, You really need to prove how legit this project is in order to gain trust and donation from people.
Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: castiloros on September 29, 2017, 04:27:26 PM Really like the idea, in utilizing the mining technology to do a charity, and the way to do it is really simple that most people able to do it.
Really good job (y). Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: kumiskura on September 29, 2017, 04:34:55 PM i want to participate with your project and donate some of my time into it everyday and help others,
but before i do that please clear our doubt about your project. i ever encountered something like this before,but what happened ? they never delivered it and ran away with it. so please tell me what make you so special other than else that i ever encountered before ? Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: anton_lotos on September 29, 2017, 04:52:15 PM Thank you for the kind feedback everyone!
@kumiskura You are right, and I want your help and anyone else who has ideas on how to do this. I want to make the funds 100% transparent and 'trustless''. Any ideas? I will post a question on the monero subreddit for more suggestions. Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: anton_lotos on October 17, 2017, 07:20:00 AM Good work guys! 2 nets donated so far. It doesn't seem like much, but that is two kids who get to sleep without getting bitten by mosquitos. :)

Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: anton_lotos on October 17, 2017, 07:47:14 AM @Love
Hmm, I just tried on Firefox but no crash. Could you send some more of your system specs so we can try to replicate the issue? Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: LoveNeko on October 17, 2017, 07:50:05 AM @Love Hmm, I just tried on Firefox but no crash. Could you send some more of your system specs so we can try to replicate the issue? I'm find the problem. One of extensions crashes. Now everything is good Title: Re: [ANN] Save someone's life by doing nothing Post by: FundCoin.io on October 17, 2017, 10:51:37 AM A really nice thing to do, guys!
Question 2: How do you stop mosquitos from biting you? idk, mosquito repellent and a lot of clothes, covering everything... but still may be no help |
