Francesco (AidCoin CEO) & Richard (Quantstamp CEO) in Bangkok at the Blockchain World Conference

This is how to start a great week!

AidCoin, the ERC-20 token for the new era of charitable giving, is excited to announce that Richard Ma, Quantstamp Co-founder & CEO, has joined AidCoin in an advisory role.

Francesco Nazari Fusetti — AidCoin CEO — first met Richard at the Bangkok Blockchain World Conference and since then Richard has been advising AidCoin informally. Together over Christmas, we donated to the Merry Merkle Tree — a decentralized giving project — shared ideas and discussed the best path for AidCoin and the AidChain ecosystem of services.

Richard has advised Aidcoin both strategically and operationally during its ICO and will continue to do so as the project evolves. Today, we want to thank Richard for the support and welcome him formally in the AidCoin team.

This announcement comes as we have successfully completed the AidCoin ICO and AidCoin (AID) has been listed on Bitfinex.

Proof of Donation

“With public trust in charities at all time lows, we have set out to solve the issue of tracking donations by utilizing the transparency and traceability of blockchain technology.”, says the CEO at AidCoin, Francesco Nazari Fusetti. “AidCoin is both the preferred method to donate transparently through the Ethereum blockchain and to access the ecosystem of services provided by the AIDChain platform.”

Richard Ma, Co-founder and CEO at Quantstamp says, “I feel very much aligned with AidCoin’s overall vision and ambitious objective of tracking charitable donations. At Quantstamp, we know how much caring matters.” He continues “I am excited to join the AidCoin team in my advisory role both strategically and operationally. Being able to provide full transparency and traceability is a key goal for the non-profit sector and through AidCoin and AidChain’s ecosystem of services, we are on the right path.”
