Bitcoin is very often accused of destroying the environment and in general being a space for rascals. Since 2018, VESA has been advocating for good causes, like the oceans, for Bitcoiners to solve. What could be a topic that impacts all of us that the international system of crypto could help to help out instead of building citadels? A non-controversial one to anyone with any sense? 

Oceans, man. And if it doesn’t impact you now, it will sooner or later. Our oceans and waterways are going down the pan, and fast. We associate our supply of oxygen with the Amazonian rainforest, but in fact, whales, and the phytoplankton they fertilize, create more oxygen, and absorb more emissions than the Amazon (1, 2).

Throwback to the Netflix Seaspiracy trailer

Ever dived and met plastic?

There is currently already 150 million tonnes of plastic waste in the oceans (3) and this waste as well as overfishing means that 90% of our coral reefs will die by 2050 (4). And while seafood is still a huge source of much needed protein in many parts of the world, the health of our oceans means that the burden of toxic load in seafood often outweigh the benefits of omega 3’s (5). 

It’s literally the air we breathe, the cleanliness and safety of our environment, and the food we eat. What could be more important?

Enter OG’s for Thai Coral Reefs at an elite conference by Coach K

Bitcoin For Corals

As a collaborative commission from thought-leader, advisor, mentor, and founder Coach K around his exclusive Thailand conference, VESA got to work, and created an art piece for the desperate need of the coral reefs and oceans. Having been in the space for a long time and having invested into over 200 projects, Coach K is very aware of the need for social impact initiatives in the crypto and blockchain space, and his conference fully reflects this. From supporting environmental projects to orphanages and communities in need, 50% of the funds raised through sponsors go towards these projects. 

But of course, that is only 50% of the deal, and the other half is off the charts networking, BBQs, yachts, ziplines and everything else you might need after a day of discussing business and financial freedom. Click here to learn more on the conference on May 9-13^th in Phuket, Thailand.

The art piece features a hallowing sea monster that must be kept under the surface by feeding it crypto. The physical version of the art piece will have 100 slots for putting your signature on it, for 1 ETH a pop. The edition of a 100 NFTS will live on Open Sea, and the NFT acts as a raffle ticket to win the physical, signed piece.

The coming NFT roadmap will unveil how the funds, 50-50 between the artist and the project, were distributed as well as other updates & perks from the soon announced coral reef charity.
