Using Blockchain to Short Circuit Recidivism
Last summer, I announced the launch of 70MillionJobs, a YC for-profit platform for helping Americans with criminal records find jobs. We've grown our community of active job-seekers to over a million, and have placed hundreds of people in jobs.
Today, I'd like to share that we're launching an ICO in support of our mission.
Corporate America has millions of unfilled jobs, yet they have a negative bias towards hiring people with criminal records. Millions of formerly incarcerated men and women desperately need a job, yet the jobs generally available are frequently awful, paying minimum wage.
Utilizing blockchain technology, we've developed a program that incentivizes companies to hire those with records while simultaneously incentivizing these folks to accept and retain employment, and avoid re-arrest, thereby tackling recidivism head-on.
Our 70M Coin unlocks this potential in an elegant and efficient manner (we believe). For accredited investors, the White Paper is available at 70MCoin.com. Questions? Contact Richard@70MillionJobs.com
