Indeed, it is a good news for Manilenyo to be paid ethereum while cleaning up their place. Some of Filipinos are not initiative when it comes in cleaning. So, it is good to have payment using cryptocurrency. They clean the community, they also promote the cryptocurrency.

I missed this news, never gets on my radar that some organization intends to pay people in ETH for cleaning manila's polluted Area. I do not know if this project has a relation to the current cleaning of Manila Bay since there is little to no news about a cryptocurrency organization being involved. Or probably the plan does not commence and there is a huge flaw on the system because those who will work for the cleaning up will not accept ETH as payment unless organizer will convert it to Php. Even though Philippines is cryptocurrency friendly, many of its citizen does not know about cryptocurrency.

They do not clean without compensation.

Hmm, if you are aware of the Manila Bay clean up, lots of volunteer flocks in to do a volunteer cleaning. They are not compensated for this and yet they present themselves to help in the cleaning drive of the ocean.

I haven't heard updates on this. Maybe because I am not there

.

Not a single news in our local media about this, if I am not mistaken.

I wonder how many people participated in this since it is talking about crypto as a reward and since not everyone knows about crypto I doubt someone who doesn't understand will join. What could be the reason why they chose Ether and not cash, if paying in cash will bring more volunteer then I dont see any advantage why they chose to pay ethereum.

I agree, it is not appealing since majority of people who do this kind of work is ignorant about cryptocurrency that is why this kind of sytem is unattracted for them. And they do this kind of stunt just for their company promotion, that is what I believe at least.
