could you elaborate exactly where the filth is here? I think I get it, but I'm not super-well versed enough to understand what the motive would be here.

- ALittleLight 4y agoEdit: Seems like this criticism doesn't apply to this project. I think that's good. What I wrote below is just an explanation of why someone might view crypto as a red flag in a charity project. --- I think the basic idea is that this web3 crypto stuff is pretty scammy. It would be like finding out the not-for-profit you were thinking about working with also sells timeshares - maybe it is, against all odds, legit, but still not a good look and kind of a red flag. Another take on it is - if I want to volunteer at a place I don't expect to get paid. If I'm working for payment, I don't want my payment to be in NFTs. So, the web3 intrusion into this idea is unnecessary and doesn't fit for either volunteers or employees.
- josh-pdap 4y agoThat's one of the many reasons why we abandoned the crypto idea after some initial optimism and research.
- kristintynski 4y agoNothing about PDAP is web3, or crypto based, though some community members have suggested it (especially last year among all the Web3 hype.) Turning into a web3 company is not happening.
- wongarsu 4y agoIt certainly set off my alarm bells for people who try to do pointless blockchain stuff for personal profit (or I guess fun and street-cred/CV-lines). That doesn't mean it has to be the case here. But at first glance a DOA seems more like a detriment here (police can outspend citizens) and NFTs are NFTs, no explanation needed I suspect. Suggestion 3 might have merit, but storing the data in the blockchain (instead of just some hashes for timestamping) makes it look like some overambitious vanity project again.
