Public good chain reaction - pay it forward #5

Abstract

I was thinking of a related idea, not fully formed yet. Looking for collaborators. "Public good chain reaction" - what if we have a web or blockchain (or both) where when somebody helps another person we ask if they are willing another person in return? The platform would track users helping each other like a chain and remind folks they were helped and they should see if somebody else needs help. People can post requests for assistance or offers of help. Restrictions would be no monetary help, must be legal, can't harm another person.

Why

When we help one person the help stops there with our good deed. There is no mechanism to reminder the assisted person to pay it forward and help somebody else. We need a way to visualize the chain reaction of good deeds propagating around the world. How many chained good deeds can 1 good deed cause?

Technical

This would require a web and preferably mobile UI. Email notifications. Need to collaborate on more specific technical requirements.

I really love this idea

For a number of different reasons: 1) Organically grows the Ethereum developer community. 2) Great experiment to test a couple of different DAO hypothesis 3) Possible "community growth hacking" Social Media Campaign for 1MD

Possible Partners 1) Pepo (https://pepo.com/) 2) ConsenSys (https://consensys.net/) 3) Ethereum Foundation (http://ethereum.org/)

Going to continue to think about this - thank you for sharing @nlukin 🙇
