Partnership

Todreamalife, US-based scientific consultancy

Todreamalife is a boutique consulting firm for high-tech in hard-science serving international clients since 2013.

The company has gained a substantial market presence through its expert panel of scientific consultants. This project will utilize specialists in Web3 (tokenomics, DAOs, DeFi, and cryptocurrencies), silviculture, drone operation, international development, economics, Indigenous health, ethnobotany, high-tech in emerging economies, and reforestation.

Todreamalife is niched in hard science, rapid deployment, and lean execution. Its last custom project involved deployment of an international COVID-19 testing network ‘Prevention Pods’ for celebrities and filmsets from Hollywood. Production clients included Disney, Fox Sports, and Netflix. Using rapid-growth protocols from high-tech and teams of clinical testers with embedded local "Fixers" the company grew in 6 months to a lean team of 600+ consultants for on-the-ground concierge testing with highly accurate <12-hour results from over 27 different high-throughput labs across the US and Canada.

In this partnership, Todreamalife provides the infrastructure to build and scale, as well as the reputation, equipment, and expertise to validate and sell green-carbon credits to high-end international buyers on the Verra registry.

With a consulting network running in 27 countries with 15 languages the company can also provide translation services, and monthly micropayments to international farmers in fiat currency directly into their bank accounts (if they choose fiat payments over cryptocurrencies).

Empulsive Ink, US-based 501(c)3 nonprofit

Empulsive Inc. (dba “Empulsive Ink” is a US 501(c)3 nonprofit founded in Arizona (EIN 88-1869344).

Empulsive Ink was formed to administer experimental Todreamalife projects that are of prosocial nature and have a high degree of public benefit, but do not fit traditional startup funding models. These projects are subsidized with public funds, conducted for prosocial outcomes, and intended to transition to public ownership.

Its aim is “Scientific inquiry into use of technology for free-market provision of basic needs.” in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal of No poverty. In this model, Empulsive Ink will be the direct contracting entity with BitDAO, oversee project funds in a transparent manner, and subsidize project development in future.

In The Savimbo Project, Empulsive Ink functions to subsidize farmers who are in extreme poverty and unable to participate in the market due to extreme poverty (i.e. illiteracy, lack of bank accounts, language barriers, etc.). It also administers funds earmarked for independent partners to increase public transparencies.

Delinquent Savants, UAE & Switzerland Web3 partners

Delinquent Savants are two affiliated Web3 global entities designed to handle tokenization and tokenomics under more favorable regulations in the UAE and Switzerland.=

Delinquent Savants DMCC will be established under the new digital ledger license in the UAE free-zone of the DMCC which is establishing itself as a crypto haven. This tax-free entity will build a digital ledger to execute smart contracts on behalf of the platform for a per-contract/per-month fee.

Delinquent Savants Switzerland will be established solely to issue and manage tokens in a jurisdiction where it is legal and encouraged.

Autonomous partners, Colombia

The Savimbo Project dedicates 10% of project funding to create, and partner with, grassroots local conservation efforts. These organizations are community-led, and already working for conservation purposes. The project builds autonomous DAOs linked to the existing organizations, for the administration of expanded project funds with "no strings attached".

Our first partnering organization is Junta de Accion Communal del la Vereda Protectora de Reservas Naturales Los Tigres del Alto. Founded and owned by Colombian smallfarmers and Indigenous leaders in the Colombian Amazon. Although the group of 27 families has been active in regional conservation for >10 years, they incorporated in March 2022 to reduce the middlemen involved in receiving funds for their work. This group is already affiliated with the World Wildlife Fund and receiving donations via Empulsive Ink for photography of rare and endangered species captured in the wild.

The Savimbo Project will extend the group's reach by buying native forested Colombian jungle, retaining it under a recognized 'biosphere' zone as a public trust, selling biosphere credits, and enabling commercialization of plant knowledge (if desired).

Ownership of sovereign lands is an essential part of Indigenous people's health according to the World Health Organization and funds from ethnobotany research have historically been more beneficial if they led to collectively owned regional development (i.e. roads, schools, and academies for institutionalized learning). We seek to enable this stewardship.
