This is an amazing concept! I have been talking up the idea of a universal basic income for quite some time. I told some that one of my major life goals would be to assist in getting it implemented in Washington State and hope that would inspire other states to follow - but the idea of using blockchain to accomplish this in a world wide level! Wow! I need to delve deeper into the fundamentals of this program before I can commit, but I am VERY intrigued! Can you direct me to any other resources? Additionally, if I commit to this platform I would like to become more involved than just a bypass member.

The sign up is simply putting one on the list of emails....the verification and KYC stuff is going to come out in the next few weeks. This token is already traded under the symbol GRT. This went through a trial program for over a year under the name grantcoin before it distributions were stopped in September and the platform was redesigned/automated.
Sign ups just started a couple weeks ago (the wallets are still being updated from 4 year old technology to the latest in peer-to-peer wallet system..hence why the sign up now is just email..). I believe they distributed over $150K in the time they ran the trial to see about the feasibility. Grantcoin.org has a bunch of updates that they emailed over so you can kind of track the course of it.
They do run a one level referral bonus program which allows people to share in the bonus pool by enlisting others. Since we are at the point, from what I can see, of trying to get people involved, that is where my focus has been. I went to a couple of monthly gathering in my area (fortunate that one of the co-founders and CTO live near where they held the events) which are being used to help spread the word.
Beyond that, whatever your skills are, they could use them. I type and talk (sales and marketing background) so this is my arena. However, if you are in graphic creation, they could use that....video editing is needed...and I am sure much more.
Hit me up on steemit.chat and I will be able to put you in touch with one of the co-founders if you are interested in helping out.
Thank you! When I get onto the laptop, and not my phone, I will message you a proper response. I am excited about the prospect of this!
