It is with deepest regret that we announce the closure of the UniversalCoin distribution, and the UniversalCoin project as a whole. Due to increasingly sophisticated attacks on our claim process, we do not have the resources to keep the distribution running fairly.

We are extremely sorry that we aren’t able to complete the distribution. We saw an incredible community come together around UniversalCoin and it hurts to let you down.

The apps will be removed from the store, and remaining funds from the fundraiser will be returned to contributors.

Thank you for your support.

DESCRIPTION KEPT BELOW FOR HISTORICAL PURPOSES

UniversalCoin is a wealth creation experiment. We want to know if it is possible to generate wealth at scale through a free and fair digital currency distribution.

Cryptocurrency presents an opportunity to reduce economic inequality and improve quality of life for people around the world. What do today's cryptocurrencies do to actually help the financially disadvantaged? We saw an opportunity to create a fairer system that could have a net-positive effect on people's lives around the world.

UniversalCoin is a digital currency with a difference - everyone has a chance to participate and get their fair share. Unlike most currency systems it costs absolutely nothing to participate, all you need is an internet connection.

How does it work?


UniversalCoin tokens will be distributed to the public free of charge 40 times starting January 15 2018. On Mondays there will be 2 separate claim windows at 00:00-01:00 UTC and 12:00-13:00 UTC. Use our official app to claim:

The distribution amount will increase every week, and every week each participant will get the same amount. You can participate in as many weekly distributions as you like. There is no catch - this is wealth creation with the power of community.

So, how are we creating wealth?

As UNV is distributed, the market will determine it's value based on supply and demand. UNV holders can then, if they choose to, sell their UniversalCoin on an exchange. UNV can also be transferred directly between parties in exchange for goods and services. The wealth is theoretically generated by the network effects from the number of participants, and each participants trust in the fairness of the distribution method.  

UniversalCoin details
