Crypto has tried everything to onboard real users:
→ Airdrops (farmed)
→ Points programs (botted)
→ Quests (gamed)

"If you solve Sybil resistance, you can really solve onboarding. You can offer onboarding incentives that can't be gamed."
— @marek_, cofounder of @Celo and Self

Simple tools. Local context. Real impact.
That’s how $COPm finds its place in everyday use 💛

This is what real usage looks like ✨

$COPm being used for everyday payments, in real places, by real people.

No complexity. No technical talk.

Thanks for showing how it works in practice, @WairaT 💛
