How does this Philanthor plan on harnessing a collective intelligence? now the little people can become a philantropist!! Decentralizing a good deed!
By taking the topics of interests of all our members and building a DAO that operates on their behalf.
For example: a member can indicate that he is only interested in:
Geography: Africa, Asia
Demographic: woman and youth,
Topics: health and education
His token ownership create a weight on these geographic, demographic and topic nodes, and pull the swarm into focusing on these directions. Of course that in the macro level, more people influence and average the graph and decisions become more diversified.
More proactive members, can be more assertive than the DAO, and take more granulated decisions of course.
The result is that if a large population on earth thinks we should solve some specific problem once and for all, despite the fact that large corporates and governments ignored it for decades then we can make a difference as a hive mind that share similar values and ideas.
