\u00a0<\/span>Dear Earth Citizen,<\/p>\n

\n

We\u2019ve just completed our most successful launch ever – the Democracy Earth beta platform went live on the\u00a0Ethereum Rinkeby testnet\u00a0<\/a>from the stage of the C20 Blockchain and Bitcoin conference in Buenos Aires 🇦🇷\u00a0where Santi Siri delivered a keynote\u00a0and<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0our beta blockchain-based global governance platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

We thank you for your support during this critical time and invite you to join more than three hundred citizens already experimenting with censorship-resistant token-based liquid democracy.\u00a0<\/span>Our mainnet release is planned for December. Until then, we\u2019ve created\u00a0a simple three step process\u00a0<\/a>for getting free test tokens and logging on – click below and add your voice to the conversation!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

Governance an<\/strong><\/u>d\u00a0<\/strong><\/u>identity<\/strong><\/u><\/div>\n
\n

The need for censorship-resistant political expression has never been more vital. As Santi noted from the stage of Devcon4 in Prague 🇨🇿, we are experiencing a profound change in the way we control our identities in the digital world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

Around the world, the conversation is about governance and the killer app is democracy.\u00a0From Facebook exposed as a primary source driving propaganda influencing elections,\u00a0to Venezuela and a cohort of countries embracing the Chinese model of extensive censorship and control,\u00a0<\/span>events\u00a0confirm<\/a>\u00a0the internet can be used to disrupt democracies just as it can destabilize dictatorships…or even establish a surveillance society.<\/p>\n

The Democracy Earth platform offers an alternative to the risks the social behemoths and nation-states pose to privacy and even democracy itself.<\/span><\/p>\n
