Banano: The role model for crypto and humanity.

By cosmic_banano | cosmic_crypto | 26 Nov 2021

What a crazy world we were born into.

Wars, famine, disease. I am sure we have all known someone affected by one of these things in the past year. A loved one passing away by a airborne virus, someone reaching out to you on the street asking if you could spare some change so that they could have something to eat that week, we are all affected.

Through it all, we see the dark sides of what we have become as humans. Diseases that could have been prevented, aid could have been given to those in need but we chose to walk on by because we didn't have the time of day for them. Because why? We had places to be? We can't trust one another? We succumb to greed and accumulate wealth for ourselves? The crypto space has become another part of who we are and shows us a mirror of our inner emotions as the charts go up and down. Always wanting positive outcomes for ourselves and caring less about everyone else. Just trying to make a quick buck.

What if crypto actually made a difference in peoples lives. Vitalik Buterin donated coins given to him to help humanity by giving it to the India COVID relief fund. He didn't care about the price. He did it because he saw people in need and acquired the means to help them. There are very few crypto projects that truly help others in such a way.

If you are into crypto, you know that every transaction requires a calculation to be made in order to transfer value to another wallet. The calculations are random and need some sort of energy to be spent. Why waste energy on random calculations when we could be spending that energy on something that actually matters. Something that could help our fellow humans and possibly other species down the road.

Banano & Folding@Home

Banano offers an incentive to miners to fold proteins and obtain a small reward for helping out. Folding proteins (https://foldingathome.org/) helps to develop patent-free drugs and uncover novel protein structures that would be difficult to come by in the research community. Banano has been the #1 team fighting the good fight and folding for months now (https://stats.foldingathome.org/team). So, if you feel like you haven't made a difference to the world in your entire life, maybe https://bananominer.com/ is a good place to start and earn rewards while doing it.

Banano and Freerice

The Banano community member has also started a new contest to fight against hunger by offering rewards to community members that take part in https://freerice.com/. Every question that is answered with put 10 grains of rice towards hunger relief. Currently the Banano community has donated 8.5 MILLION grains of rice to those in need after less than a week of starting the contest.

Final Thoughts...

This post is not to shill Banano. I could go on saying how Banano isn't just a fork of Nano, but an optimized fork with lower PoW requirements and more energy efficient than Nano. Or, how the community is welcoming to all monkeys and always give out tips to newcomers and answer questions respectfully. But, I want you to go find that out yourself. I am not going to give you referral links for signing up and using my code. I'm not going to tell you where you can purchase Banano.

I just want to ask you:
