What is Polis?

Polis is a cryptocurrency designed for a global community.Polis uses decentralized governance and a system of democratic financing to generate global impact. Most cryptocurrencies are controlled entirely by a small group of developers and insiders.
Instead, Polis flips this model upside-down by transferring democratic power to the Polis
community. Community members are given a vote through masternode ownership. These
votes determine which community proposals pass or fail. Anyone can create a community
proposal about anything: a charitable donation, a community event, a direct change to
Polis’s code base, etc. These proposals are executed and funded by The Polis Foundation.
Polis connects digital communities and marginalized countries in developing areas.
Supported by a passionate online community and experienced developers, the Polis mission
is global impact through consensus-backed philanthropy and humanitarian efforts. Polis
will never have an ICO because Polis is available for use by all people. Development is
funded by a low pre-mine of 1% and ownership of 1% of masternodes. This ensures
that 99% of Polis is in the hands of the community.
The community makes all future project financing decisions with decentralized governance and voting.
Polis is Greek for community. Our motto is Polis Empowers People. People thrive when they can connect and trade freely. Polis uses decentralized advanced blocks chain technology to solve important problems for our global community.
