Episode 157 - Leveraging NFTs to advance elephant welfare in Thailand
Manage episode 420804890 series 3407795
In episode 157, we’re excited to welcome Daniel Villota, Founder of Unchained Elephants, a community leveraging Web3 technology to promote elephant welfare in Thailand, and to rescue elephants enduring cruel treatment. We discuss some of the challenges facing elephants in the tourism industry in Thailand, how they’re leveraging NFTs to create a community dedicated to elephant welfare, how they raised almost $50,000 to support elephant welfare, and much more.
--Three Key Takeaways--
- In Thailand, there is a large industry built around elephant tourism. Unfortunately, many of the providers engage in unethical and inhumane treatment of their animals. As such, it’s important to work together with NGOs and local authorities to educate tourists and community members, and to build a system centered around sanctuaries and ethical tourism.
- NFTs can be a valuable tool for connecting community members to causes they care about. In addition to giving donors a cool memento for their donation, NFTs can also give community members certain benefits like access to a token-gated community and regular updates on the impact of their donation, helping them feel more connected to the cause.
- Whether it’s humanitarian aid, or donating to causes on the other side of the world, crypto can help make philanthropy much more efficient by cutting out unnecessary intermediaries and the fees that come with them, ensuring more money goes directly to the cause.

While we may discuss specific web3 projects or cryptocurrencies on this podcast, please do not take any of this as investment advice, and please make sure to do your own research on potential investment opportunities, or any opportunity. We host a variety of guests on this podcast with the sole purpose of highlighting the social impact use cases of this technology. That being said, Crypto Altruism does not endorse any of these projects, and we recognize that, since this is an emerging sector, some may be operating in regulatory grey areas, and as such, we cannot confirm their legality in the jurisdictions in which they operate, especially as it pertains to decentralized finance protocols. So, before getting involved with any project, it’s important that you do your own research and confirm the legality of the project. More info HERE.
