On September 1, Humaniq opens an international competition of blockchain projects to improve the lives of the world’s unbanked people by integrating them into the global financial system. Winners will refine their ideas on an all-expenses paid trip to Kenya, and then launch their company on an ICO sponsored by Humaniq.

Humaniq is a simple and secure mobile app, delivering financial inclusion solutions to the 2.5 billion unbanked and 1 billion under-banked population. Its cryptocurrency token HMQ is the core of Humaniq’s cutting-edge banking. Humaniq is supported by more than 10,000 investors, the UN, and the startup accelerator at Barclay's, the oldest bank in London.

— peer-to-peer lending— peer-to-peer insurance— payments without a fee— charity without intermediaries— loans for business— remote use of “human computing power” by IT-companies.

Humaniq brings isolated people into modern markets, creating a new source of growth for the world economy and impacting individual lives. By leveraging a widespread ambassador program, Humaniq reaches even the most isolated regions in emerging countries, helping reduce hunger and poverty, while giving people the opportunity to save, lend and raise money.

Anyone who has a simple smartphone and internet access can become a “digital citizen.” Along with

“digital citizenship,” Humaniq’s users receive the equivalent of $18 on their account in the

cryptocurrency HMQ as well as an opportunity to use its basic financial instruments.

Humaniq’s citizens use advanced bioidentification (face and voice) to register and login to Humaniq’s

mobile app. The interface is simplified for maximum visuality and gamification.
