Welcome to the final week of Sandclock’s month-long endeavor to highlight 4 incredible organizations and conduct an auction of 4 one-of-a-kind Wicked Craniums Gods! 100% of proceeds from the auction will be donated to purpose-driving organizations. Below you will find a recap of our plans and how the auction will work, as well as more information about this unique partnership with Health Finance Institute (HFI) and their collaboration with the Danish Red Cross.

Sandclock x Health Finance Institute Partnership

Sandclock is thrilled to announce a partnership with HFI and strategic collaboration with the Danish Red Cross! We are working together to conduct an NFT auction that will aid Type 1 Diabetes in Mexico and Type 2 Diabetes in Armenia!

100% of proceeds from the Water God will go directly to HFI.

Founded on the foundation of amplifying greater good, Sandclock continues to bring highly reputable global organizations to the DeFi ecosystem to collaborate on important projects and many more will be announced in due course of time.

The Burden of Diabetes & HFI’s Strategic Vision

The global burden of diabetes underscores the need for urgent action. Over 500 million people are living with Type 2 Diabetes globally. Approximately 33% of children living with Type 1 Diabetes in low-income countries won’t make it past their 25th birthday. This burden is compounded by insufficient funding. As a global health non-profit dedicated to closing the financing gap for non-communicable diseases (NCDs), HFI advocates for and forges data-driven/evidence-based innovative financing partnerships.

HFI’s Diabetes Programs

Equipped with a mission to democratize impact investing, HFI will launch two diabetes programs: one in Mexico and one in Armenia. With 12.8 million adults in Mexico living with Type 2 Diabetes and 26,578 children with Type 1 Diabetes, it is undoubtedly a prevalent issue. Similarly, there are 141,200 adults in Armenia living with Type 2 Diabetes. HFI will work with local partners in Mexico to increase access to life-saving medical devices for youth living with Type 1 Diabetes. Additionally, HFI will partner with the Danish Red Cross to create the first social impact bond for Type 2 Diabetes in Armenia. Collectively, these programs will help scale up the efforts and programs designed to aid those living with Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes.

Join Sandclock, Wicked Craniums, and HFI on Friday, October 22nd at 7 PM EST for a Twitter Spaces conversation around HFI’s work to effectively address Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes, HFI’s involvement/interest in the blockchain space, and more!

Sandclock x Wicked Craniums (Recap)

Sandclock is collaborating with Wicked Craniums to bring you the most wicked NFT auction of the century. Best of all, 100% of proceeds will go to charity.

Wicked Craniums is one of the fastest growing NFT projects in the space. And to be honest, the art is really, really cool. Sandclock and its team members have been long-time fans of Wicked Craniums and continue to be involved in the fantastic Wicked Craniums community.

“Wicked Craniums are the pictorial representation of the 10,762 Craniums that belong to the island of Osseous (they have over 180 differntiable characteristics), they live on the Ethereum Blockchain in the form of an NFT.”

Wicked Craniums’ support in this collaboration is proof of their commitment to use art and blockchain to have a meaningful impact on the world. It has been a true pleasure working with the Wicked Craniums team to make this auction happen, and we believe this is the beginning of a beautiful partnership — and friendship — between Sandclock and Wicked Craniums.

Here’s how it will work. Wicked Craniums has created 5 one of a kind NFT skull Gods. They have very generously donated 4 of those skulls to be auctioned off for charity. Together, we have something very special planned for the 5th skull, but you’ll have to wait to find out! Follow Sandclock and Wicked Craniums on Twitter for updates.

In the coming weeks, we will be unveiling the Wicked Craniums skull Gods and the charities who will receive 100% of proceeds from their corresponding skull in the auction.

We will also be having discussions around the importance of each charity’s chosen cause, speaking with representatives from each charity, and more. Keep an eye out!

This partnership between Sandclock, Health Finance Institute, and Wicked Craniums is at the intersection of art, DeFi, and philanthropy. We hope it is only the beginning and that we will see more collaborations of this nature in the future!

More details about the auction will be announced in the coming days and weeks. Follow along on Sandclock’s Twitter for updates and please consider participating in the auction!

The Next Generation of Wealth Creation.

Sandclock Partners with Health Finance Institute and Wicked Craniums for a Very Special Charity… was originally published in Sandclock on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

Sandclock is ecstatic to announce we are partnering up with Impossible Finance, the multichain launchpad of the future to bring fairness, accessibility, and efficiency to Initial Dex Offering’s (IDO).

What will Sandclock enable for Impossible Finance?

In the beginning…

Earn allocation, losslessly!

To participate in an IDO on Impossible Finance, one’s allocation is determined by the amount of IDIA staked…what if there was a way to increase your allocation losslessly, without incurring additional risk, all while growing your capital and allowing more value capture for IDIA, offering a passive no-loss launchpad strategy for users?

Yield generated by your capital will be used to dollar cost average (DCA) into Impossible Finance’s IDIA token in perpetuity (or until you withdraw!).

Not only that, but you will be able to allocate as much of your yield as you want, though initially it will be set to dollar-cost average with only 100% of the yield generated.

• So to summarize,
• Yield generated DCAs into IDIA
• Your launchpad allocation increases
• Value from the vaults accrues to IDIA and increases users’ exposure to launchpads

Sounds good? There’s more.

Down the line…

As we test out these new models and grow alongside one another, more use cases will emerge.

Zero-loss Fundraisers

Do you avoid investing more due to risk aversion? Sandclock and Impossible Finance are bringing zero-loss investments to you. Access asymmetrical upside without risking capital.

Choose the length of your investment and starting capital. All the yield will be used to participate in the IDO of your choice. Withdraw your initial capital + IDO tokens!

Long Term Raises

Imagine being able to fund a project with your yield for one year, before deciding to fully commit.

The builders benefit from

• more predictable cashflow: the APY is relatively stable so the teams will know exactly what to count on
• freedom to structure the deal as a debt obligation
• ability to set a fixed exchange rate or variable through oracle to dollar-cost average into the asset over time

The investors benefit from

• ability to evaluate the team’s performance over time before committing fully
• Asymmetrical ROI, decreased risk, and therefore less stress

One Tx : Many IDOs

Using Sandclock’s vaults, with just a single transaction, you will be able to participate in as many IDOs as your IDIA stack will allow. This efficiency will encourage users to allocate as much of their capital as possible. Gas costs get passed on to the projects managing the IDO.

This is only the beginning for Sandclock and Impossible Finance, as the money lego composability offers for endless collaborations. From lossless investments to dollar cost averaging into your favorite tokens, we’re here for the long-haul, and we know this partnership is going to open up a world of new opportunities.

Follow along on our socials to keep up to date. And forget — Sandclock’s Phase II sale of $QUARTZ is tomorrow! Read about it here.

If you want to learn about Sandclock, go to our page https://www.sandclock.org/. Won’t take you more than 10 minutes, we promise…and you won’t be disappointed..

Phase I Recap

In May, after explicitly opting not to take VC money at that stage to make the sale as fair as possible, Sandclock held the Phase I Sale of $QUARTZ. We didn’t know what to expect. In the end, it was a truly incredible response, and we expect the same for Phase II. With an individual cap of $35k and a total cap of $3 million, it was completely sold out in under 3 minutes. Yes, we hit $3 million in less than 3 minutes. Even with our individual cap, only about a sixth of those interested were able to participate.

Since the Phase I sale, we have made tremendous advances developing Sandclock, our team has expanded to over 10 people, and we will continue to push on what is possible for coming years.

Now it’s time for Phase II, and we expect just as much excitement. Let’s go.

How Phase II will work

A Fair Launch Auction (FLA). An FLA is a permissionless price discovery mechanism that enables projects and ideas from across the world to raise money from individuals with few barriers to entry.

• Amount for sale: 2,900,000 QUARTZ (4.6% of non-locked TTS).
• Price: TBD by the auction!
• Pricing model: Auction-based.
• Accepted: USDC.
• When? October 23rd — October 27th.
• Where? sale.sandclock.org @ Ethereum (link will go live at 14:00 UTC on October 23rd).
• Who? Individuals and entities who are eligible to participate pursuant to our Terms of Sale (link will go live at 14:00 UTC on October 23rd).
• Lockup: There will be soft vesting for Phase I QUARTZ holders. More details on this soon.

For a brief overview of the tokenomics, head over to this article.

Do keep in mind there are value accrual mechanisms for $QUARTZ not listed there as it is outside of the scope of the article. For instance, fees that accrue to the treasury are used to generate yield. This yield (and only the yield) is then distributed to depositors pro rata to create a positive feedback loop between APY, TVL, and performance fees.

[APY ↗] ⇒ [TVL ↗] ⇒ [APY ↘] ⇒ [fees/sponsorship ↗], [APY ↗], repeat.

Once our treasury has grown sufficiently only QUARTZ stakers will have access to the massively boosted APY. 👀

Sandclock x UNICEF India​

Sandclock is deeply honored to announce a strategic collaboration with UNICEF India. Sandclock, along with Wicked Craniums is conducting an NFT auction that will support UNICEF India’s mission to help young children and adolescents struggling with the challenges of mental health. 100% of proceeds from the assigned God will go directly to UNICEF India.

Also known as the United Nations’ Children’s Fund, UNICEF came into existence 74 years ago and serves children in 192 countries and territories. In 2020, over $7.2 billion was donated to UNICEF to promote health and well-being of children around the world. In 2018, UNICEF assisted in the birth of 27 million babies, administered pentavalent vaccines to an estimated 65.5 million children, provided education for 12 million children, treated four million children with severe acute malnutrition, and responded to 285 humanitarian emergencies in 90 countries. In 1965 UNICEF was awarded the Noble Peace Prize for their work and impact around the world.

Founded on the foundation of amplifying greater good, Sandclock continues to bring highly reputable global organizations to the DeFi ecosystem to collaborate on important projects and many more will be announced in due course of time.

We are delighted to announce that all proceeds from the Wicked Craniums Earth God will be donated to UNICEF India to support young people and adolescents struggling with the challenges of mental health. As Sandclock and UNICEF India join hands, we can significantly amplify our impact in the world.

“This is a significant opening in the NFT space. Thanks to SandClock and Wicked Cranium for initiating this exciting auction. We see this as an opportunity to boost our work for better mental health in children and adolescents across India at a time when we continue to grapple with the impact of the pandemic,” said Yasumasa Kimura, UNICEF Deputy Representative in India.

This week on Twitter Spaces, along with UNICEF India and Wicked Craniums, we were deeply honored to discuss UNICEF India, the work they are doing for young people struggling with mental health, their involvement/interest in the blockchain space, and more.

The Next Generation of Wealth Creation.

Sandclock Joins Hands with Mercy Corps and Wicked Craniums to Bring You a Very Special Auction for… was originally published in Sandclock on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.

In light of the recent crisis in Afghanistan and following the immense impact of India’s COVID Relief Fund, COO and Founder of Polygon, Sandeep Nailwal, and Rahilla Zafar, Advisor for Fourth Revolution Capital and Producer of MINTED, invited a select group of innovators, entrepreneurs, and non-profits to lead the Crypto for Afghanistan project. The project’s goal is to enable the broader crypto community to donate funds to help those suffering from the tragedy unfolding in Afghanistan.

Since the formative days of the project, the Sandclock team has played a key role in assisting with the execution of the strategy, alongside Nagakarthik MP (Co-Founder of India’s Crypto COVID Relief Fund), Peter Vanderwaal (Founder and CEO of Stratigos), Sultan Latif (Director for Save the Children), and several other passionate leaders in the crypto community.

In addition to building the platform, Crypto for Afghanistan utilizes Sandclock’s proprietary fund-raising widget to raise funds — it is the same widget that was previously used in Sandclock’s Phase I sale in May. Sandclock will also play a key role in issuing NFT tax receipts to those who donate to Crypto for Afghanistan. Aligned with our mandate to lead at the forefront of crypto innovation, Sandclock’s NFT tax receipts will highlight the utility of our technology in delivering remarkable results for the broader community.

Given the urgency of the project, we are grateful for our Tech Lead, Ryuhei Matsuda, and Backend Team Lead/Architect, José Ramirez Codallo, for working within extremely tight deadlines. Their hard work has ensured that the tools and technologies to make this initiative a success are available and ready to be deployed.

We are also honored to be one of the multisig key holders for the project and as caring members of the crypto community, we will not only ensure that short term goals of the project are delivered with utmost care for the Afghan people, but we will also focus on long term sustainable strategies that will leverage Sandclock innovations to deliver impactful results.

Our promise to the community is to generate wealth responsibly, and we are glad to once again highlight our commitment and focus on delivering those results.

We hope that Crypto for Afghanistan can improve the current situation in Afghanistan and help as many individuals as possible. Please consider donating to the cause here.

Sandclock supports the partition, subdivision, and allocation of principal & yield. Initially, stablecoin-exclusive. We are adding POS token support through PRISM to support $ETH $LUNA & co.

We’re supercharging PRISM!

If you watched our pitch deck presentation, you should know that V1’s theme is delayed-execution strategies. V2’s theme is instant-execution strategies through self-paying loans. We can integrate PRISM in both.

This means that once PRISM is live, you will be able to program how you want it to be subdivided and allocated through our superior user experience.

And there’s a lot more to come. Get ready.

If it ever seems like the Sandclock team has gotten quiet, rest assured there is always a game plan. We are simply hustling hard in the background, getting all those exciting announcements ready for you. This week has been no different. And now, we’re thrilled to share it with you.

Sandclock Invited to Speak at United Nations General Assembly

Sandclock has been invited to speak at the 76th Annual United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on September 22nd in New York City. We’re sending the best man for this honor; Sandclock’s Chief of Strategy, Q Rasi, will speak about Sandclock’s innovations on the panel titled “Blockchain & the Democratization of Philanthropic Giving”.

Every year, the United Nations General Assembly acts as the main policy-making organ of the organization. In addition, the UNGA features panels focused on major international issues and challenges that call for global action. It is a critical opportunity for those all over the world to come together to chart a course for a better future, making the UNGA the perfect setting for Sandclock to spread its mission to transform philanthropy through DeFi. While attending the event, Q, as well as Sandclock’s general counsel, Alex Hughes, will connect with legislators, global leaders, and other influential figures to share Sandclock’s vision and discuss crypto regulation.

As soon as we have more information, we will share it with you, and hope to make a recording available for viewing after the event.

Audits

Solidified has reviewed Sandclock’s Ethereum contracts and come back with stellar results. With only a few minor problems, our team is already correcting those and getting ready to resubmit for a final review. In the same vein, we are gearing up to get started on our CosmWasm & backend audits.

Phase II Pitch & Announcement

On September 10th, Sandclock’s founder, Cristiano Teixeira, will pitch to all of you, our community, and announce the date for the Phase II sale. Cristiano will share details never before released about Sandclock’s strategies, roadmap, and more. It’s approaching fast, and you’re not going to want to miss it, so mark your calendar.

Rebranding and New Logo

Check the new splash page.

We are thrilled to present Sandclock’s new and evolved logo, created by Büro as part of our rebranding. Perhaps more unexpected than our classic sandclock image (it will always have a special place in our hearts!), the new logo is clean and fresh. Focusing on the imagery of a cut quartz to represent our $QUARTZ token combined with a vault and ticking clock alike, it all comes together with sleek, eye-catching colors.

Coupled with a logo, we will be releasing our brand guidelines soon once it’s more relevant.

This logo symbolizes a new era for Sandclock: The Next Generation of Wealth Creation.

We met with Büro this morning to review their progress thus far. It is in anticipation of the Philanthropy Summit 2021 that we release our splash page with the very first WebGL implementation of our QUARTZ crystal. Rest assured this component will receive frequent updates to increase its quality and wow factor. It’s not even close to being done.

That being said, we have good news and bad news.

The Bad News

Büro is creating some incredible 3D graphics that will take Sandclock’s platform to the next level. But this type of development is very complex and takes time. So the final version of the website will likely not be released until November, December, or possibly even later.

The Good News

Büro’s progress truly blew our team away. The colors, the imagery, the graphics, the cohesiveness…it’s simply incredible. And we will release an intermediate version of the website so that our launch can stay on track and the platform will be fully usable — both the dashboard and user onboarding will be “final”.

Sandclock’s user interface will be unmatched by any other project.

$1000 NFT Giveaway w/ DeFiSocks

DeFiSocks is as passionate as we all are about Sandclock. So they have generously gifted Sandclock a pair of this year’s rare, limited edition NFT socks to give to one of you! Just a few days ago, DeFiSocks were valued at $4000+ and at the time this article was written, these NFT socks are valued around $1000.

Head to the Sandclock Twitter for instructions on how to enter!

Solidity Audit w/ Solidified

Sandclock’s Solidity audit with Solidified began on August 7th and is now in full swing. As with any official audit, it will take a few weeks.

Here’s a temperature check with Stefan Beyer, CEO of Oak Security (previously Cryptonics) and Lead Auditor for Solidified:

“We are pretty much in the discovery phase, understanding the code. At this stage, we just try to get a feel, so it’s not too representative, but we haven’t noticed any obvious bugs or vulnerability and the code seems very understandable. This is always a good sign.”

SOC 1 & 2 Type 2 Certifications w/ Armanino

As we move forward with SOC 1 and 2 Type 2 certifications, we are proud to present this letter provided by Armanino. This is a long and tedious process, but it will all be worth it in the end as we make our institutional play. We have big plans in the works.

Philanthropy Summit 2021

Register now for the Philanthropy Summit 2021!

What you can expect:

• Engaging conversation among fantastic speakers
• The DeFi Socks giveaway winner will be announced
• There will be an important announcement about Sandclock’s Phase II sale

That’s all for now, friends. Keep a close eye on Twitter for more updates throughout the week, especially as we approach the Philanthropy Summit 2021! And don’t forget to enter the giveaway!
