Featured Airdrop of the Week
Airdrops are additional tokens that are distributed to EOS token holders. New projects can bootstrap a user base for their DApp while avoiding the complexity of selling tokens via the traditional ICO method. Projects may withhold founder tokens that can provide a runway for the development team. Market participants then decides the fair market value of airdropped tokens for themselves.
HireVibes
“HireVibes connects jobseekers, employers, referrers and recruiters on a new job search platform (Dapp) based on the EOS blockchain. HireVibes aims to disrupt the hiring process by leveraging peer referrals to fill open positions, creating a fair incentive model with reasonable recruiter fees, and giving to a worthy cause everytime a role is filled through HireVibes.”
Goals of HireVibes
“Helping people find great jobs, helping companies (startup’s, DAC’s, non-profits etc.) build great teams and giving back to the global community using a fair incentive model.”
