Cryptoconservation initiative to fight rhino extinction

“Rhino Coin is cryptoconservation, which means it’s cryptocurrency with a conscience. We combine the transparency and security of blockchain with the social responsibility of conservation,” says Alexander Wilcocks, a founding member of the digital currency.

One Rhino Coin represents one gram of legal rhino horn and a percentage of every one sold will be donated to the foundation, which will also focus efforts against illegal trade. The top priority is to generate a stable and significant source of resources for the conservation of a decreasing population. About one thousand of these mammals are killed each year by poachers.
