MELONx ($MLNX) is a cryptocurrency project on the Binance Smart Chain network that aims to help women battling breast cancer through a crypto donation platform and other community initiatives. It is the second project launched under the DRIVENecosystem umbrella for driving social impact through blockchain technology.
As both blockchain adoption and cause-based online activism continue gaining momentum over the 2020s, Melon looks well-positioned to establish itself as a lead platform at the intersection of these trends, empowering online grassroots philanthropy through crypto.
With its clear mission, structural fundraising mechanism, specialized niche focus on women’s health, backing of the DRIVEN ecosystem, and embracing the speed/affordability of BSC, Melon has several competitive strengths that could drive sustainability and position it emerge as a standard bearer for global crypto social impact efforts over the long-term.
Melon encompasses both the MLNX token itself in addition to the blockchain platform, lottery, and community initiatives collectively working to drive breast cancer support through crypto fundraising.
With its positioning as a first mover social impact initiative on BSC having a structural fundraising method aided by the resources of DRIVEN, Melon has several competitive edges over any rival breast cancer crypto donation efforts emerging in future.
Liquidity and developer wallet are locked via DeepLock smart contract until at least February 2025, ensuring investor protection and extended locks as needed.
Transactions are taxed 14% total for rewards, liquidity pool, and charity, reducing token supply over time while providing sustainable donations funding.
Donating to assist women battling breast cancer globally is the core focus rather than profit seeking, driving community loyalty.
MLNX token holders with balances exceeding 50,000 tokens receive BUSD stablecoin dividends from the 6% transaction tax, incentivizing investors to buy and hold.
Decentralized telegram community polls and votes guide project decisions, keeping ongoing development direction aligned to holders.
Decentralized lottery games on the platform offer engagement opportunities while also raising additional charity funds and attracting new community users.
Resources and assistance from the broader DRIVEN ecosystem aids with awareness, technical support, founder expertise, and cross-community promotion.
The 2024 roadmap has an ambitious focus on platform testing, major upgrades, partnerships, CEX listings, and multiple charity event hosting for maximal outreach and user adoption.
Breast cancer is the second most prevalent cancer diagnosed in women in the United States, after skin cancer.
Breast cancer can affect both men and women, but it affects women significantly more frequently.
This is our to-do list for this year. We aim to be open and honest so you can keep up with what we're up to. When we achieve a new milestone, we will update the website.
We are pleased to share that last week MELONx provided a crypto donation of $3,500 in BUSD to Michelle, a patient in New York struggling with mounting chemotherapy costs. These grassroots direct crypto donations are at the heart of our mission. We will continue seeking out cases where MELONx and our amazing community can donate crypto directly via blockchain to ease expensive burdens. Our next funding round is ongoing.
The crypto funds were sent to her personal BEP20 wallet address on Binance Smart Chain. Michelle will be using the tax-free crypto donations to help pay down expensive treatment bills of $8,000 that insurance would not cover for this self-employed mother of two. "I'm so grateful for the support in affording critical care. Being able to focus on healing rather than finances means everything,” said Michelle.
Today MELONx made a cryptocurrency donation of $15,000 USDC to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) earmarked to support Tammy, a 42 year old stage 3 breast cancer fighter going through radiation. “We’re honored to send cryptocurrency directly to help Tammy fight, and bring her hope through this darkness,” said MELONx founder. “This is what our blockchain platform was built for - getting crypto assistance to those who need it most.”
With no health insurance, mounting medical bills have devastated Tammy financially on top of everything else as she battles advanced cancer while raising a special needs teenager. Our crypto donation will give Tammy one less worry as the NBCF assists with medical costs, nutrition needs, counseling and other support care expenses.
This month the MELONx community raised 125,000 MLNX tokens via our platform to fund a breast reconstruction surgery for lymphoma survivor Stacy. The tax-free crypto donation helps the 49-year old cover over $20k in out-of-pocket surgery expenses not included in her treatment coverage.
“Paying for my mastectomy was hard enough. I’m beyond grateful for the assistance towards this next important milestone in my journey,” said Stacy. “The MELONx community support through crypto gives me strength and hope during the hardest of fights.” Stacy's story reminds us of the perpetual battles even survivors can face. We will keep leveraging crypto to support all those still shouldering the costs of winning.
