Mande Network is building an "Onchain Credibility Hub" for Web3, a Layer 2 rollup on the Ethereum blockchain with low gas fees and fast settlements. The core idea behind Mande Network is to change how we perceive the value of individuals by creating an environment where talents, credibility, and skills can be tokenized and used to generate financial opportunities.
I’m going to be honest here and say that I do not understand this concept. It sounds me to like exploitation but I am hoping it is not. Investing in “human capital” might sound promising as it can expose many new talents but like I said it sounds like exploitation so ethical concerns might be raised for a reason.
It definitely is, humans seem to have only value if it can be proven and capitalized.
And i find tacky as hell that they have the audacity to try to and cash in with Nelson Mandela's quote with their sales pitch, turning it to some cheap tech-bro mantra, as it seems that their whole name of the token is derived from Mandela. That just makes it seems like Mandala is their mascot.
Even though i skimmed their litepaper and web page, i don't really get why any of this exist. I mean i get THEIR idea why it exist and that's a bad idea, but why would anyone believe this would be worth existing is beyond me. Maybe some people are just incentivised to spread their word, which seems to be nothing but empty tech jargon and tech that already had existed.
