Few resources on Earth are as scarce—or as powerful—as a fully developed human intellect. That’s one of the reasons the Shakti Foundation chose this extraordinary resource as the foundation for its global currency. We also recognize that children—the most precious blessings of humanity—represent the purest form of this potential. It’s no coincidence that our name, “Shakti,” is drawn from ancient Sanskrit, referring to the innate life-force and creative power present in all people.
Unlike other cryptocurrencies, Shakti Coin is not mined through computational achievement, but rather through human achievement in the advancement of education. We see this as the most direct way to help each person, and each community, achieve their true potential. The Shakti Project is a grassroots initiative—started by dedicated volunteer parents, educators, and blockchain enthusiasts who believe that currency can be a catalyst for social change.
But making that change will require a new kind of global currency—one that is easy, instant, and inexpensive to use. Help us make a difference. Help us make history. If you share our vision of what currency could be, we invite you to join us.
