Introduction

Give4Gain is a pioneering initiative designed to bridge the gap between charitable giving and financial rewards. Our mission is twofold: to raise vital funds for charities and to recognise the generosity of donors and volunteers through our GIVE4 token. By leveraging Hedera Hashgraph technology, we ensure transparency, efficiency, and a sustainable incentive model for those who contribute to meaningful causes.


At its core, Give4Gain aims to tackle a pressing issue—poverty in the UK. With rising living costs and increasing financial hardship, many individuals and families struggle to meet basic needs. Traditional charitable giving, while impactful, often lacks long-term engagement and incentives for continued support. Give4Gain addresses this by not only directing funds to charities but also offering donors a potential financial upside, creating a win-win system for both philanthropy and economic empowerment.

Mission & Vision

Our mission is to revolutionise charitable giving by creating a system where generosity is both impactful and rewarding. We aim to raise an initial £500 million for charities, providing crucial funding to support those in need while ensuring that donors and volunteers are recognised for their contributions.
Our vision extends beyond fundraising—we seek to create a new model of wealth distribution that benefits both the giver and the receiver. By rewarding charitable contributions with GIVE4 tokens, we empower donors and volunteers with a financial asset that has the potential to grow in value. As more people participate, demand for the token increases, fostering a sustainable ecosystem where generosity leads to financial opportunity.
Ultimately, we envision a future where giving is not just an act of kindness but also a means of building wealth and financial inclusion for those who support meaningful causes. Together, we can drive social change while creating economic value for all.

How it Works

1.Choose a Charity
Browse our website and select the charity you’d like to support.

2.Make a Donation
Donations must be made through Give4Gain.uk, but we do not collect any funds—your payment goes directly to the charity. By donating through our platform, we can track contributions and reward you with our GIVE4 token.

3.Provide Your Crypto Wallet Address
During the donation process, you’ll be asked to enter your crypto wallet address. Since digital tokens are stored on a secure network (Blockchain, Hedera…), you need a crypto wallet to receive and manage them.

4.Don’t Have a Crypto Wallet? No Problem!
If you don’t have a wallet, we’ll guide you through the simple process of creating one.

5.Ensure Wallet Compatibility
GIVE4 tokens are stored on Hedera Hashgraph, which operates similarly to blockchain. Before sending your tokens, we verify that your wallet is compatible with Hedera’s network.

6.Receive Your Tokens
Once your wallet is confirmed as compatible, we’ll transfer the GIVE4 tokens to you as a reward for your generosity.

Tokenomics

Total Supply & Circulation
The GIVE4 token has a finite total supply of 10 billion tokens, ensuring scarcity and long-term value potential. Initially, 7.5 billion tokens will be in circulation, primarily distributed to donors. The remaining supply will gradually enter circulation as volunteers receive and trade their tokens over time.

Fundraising & Token Valuation
Our goal is to raise £500 million for charities, with each GIVE4 token initially valued at £0.07. This valuation ensures that early supporters receive meaningful rewards while also creating a strong foundation for future growth. Initially donors will receive 1 GIVE4 token per £0.07 given to charities. This means that for every £70 donated, you will receive 1,000 GIVE4 tokens as a reward. The more you give, the more tokens you earn. However, once the token is listed on an exchange, its value will fluctuate based on supply and demand. If the market price of GIVE4 rises above £0.07, new donors will receive tokens at the current exchange rate, rather than the initial fixed rate. This dynamic pricing ensures a fair and transparent system, where early donors benefit from potential token appreciation, while new donors continue to support charities through their contributions.

Incentives for Donors
To encourage charitable giving and reward donors, Give4Gain will offer a discount when the market price of the GIVE4 token exceeds its initial value of £0.07. For example, if the token is trading at £0.10 on an exchange (or equivalent in US dollar), new donors may receive GIVE4 at a discounted rate, such as £0.09 per token, instead of the full market price.
This incentive ensures that donating to charity remains the most attractive way to acquire GIVE4, rather than purchasing it directly from an exchange. However, the discount will only apply as long as the token price remains above £0.07 and we have a sufficient supply of tokens available for distribution. This approach balances sustainability with long-term donor engagement while maximizing contributions to charitable causes.

Token Distribution
75% (7.5 billion tokens) – Allocated to donors as a reward for their contributions.
20% (2 billion tokens) – Reserved for volunteers, recognising their efforts in supporting charitable initiatives.
4% (400 million tokens) – Held in reserves to support the project’s long-term sustainability.
1% (100 million tokens) – Allocated for operational costs and the team behind Give4Gain.

Transfer Fee & Redistribution
Every GIVE4 token transfer between wallets is subject to a 0.5% transaction fee, which helps sustain and grow the Give4Gain ecosystem.
For example, if 1,000 tokens are transferred, a 5-token fee is applied. This fee is distributed as follows:
0.4% (4 tokens) – Redistributed to charities and volunteers as additional rewards.
0.1% (1 token) – Allocated to the Give4Gain treasury account to cover operational costs and ensure long-term sustainability.
This transaction fee model ensures that the community benefits from ongoing token circulation, while Give4Gain maintains financial stability to support its mission.

Utility of the GIVE4 Token
Store of Value: GIVE4 tokens can be held as a digital asset, with the potential for appreciation as demand increases.
Tradable Asset: Tokens can be exchanged for money by trading on supported cryptocurrency exchanges.
Continuous Rewards: Through transaction fee redistribution, active participation in the ecosystem generates additional benefits for charities and volunteers.

By integrating blockchain technology and aligning incentives, Give4Gain transforms charitable giving into an opportunity for both social impact and financial growth.

Technology

We have chosen the Hedera hashgraph network over traditional blockchain solutions due to its superior efficiency, security, and scalability. Unlike proof-of-work blockchains like Bitcoin, Hedera operates on a proof-of-stake model, powered by hashgraph consensus, which offers Asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerance (ABFT)—the highest level of security possible for distributed networks.
Hedera stands out due to its combination of high throughput, low transaction fees, and near-instant finality, making it an ideal choice for a large-scale, high-volume token ecosystem like Give4Gain.


Why Hedera? A Comparison with Bitcoin

Transaction Speed:
Bitcoin: ~7 transactions per second (TPS)
Hedera: 10,000+ TPS

Transaction Fees:
Bitcoin: ~$10 per transaction
Hedera: $0.001 per transaction

Energy Consumption (Per Transaction):
Bitcoin: 2,927,000 Wh (high carbon footprint)
Hedera: 0.003 Wh (extremely energy-efficient)

Hedera is faster, cheaper, and more sustainable than Bitcoin, all while maintaining enterprise-grade security. Most importantly, its low energy consumption makes it an environmentally responsible choice, aligning with Give4Gain’s mission to create a positive social and economic impact.


Smart Contracts & Governance

Hedera supports smart contracts, enabling automated and transparent transactions within the Give4Gain ecosystem. These smart contracts can ensure secure token distribution, fee collection, and redistribution to donors and volunteers, eliminating the need for intermediaries and reducing operational costs.
Governance on Hedera is managed by the Hedera Governing Council, composed of leading global organisations. This decentralised yet structured governance model ensures stability, security, and continuous network improvements, making Hedera a trusted platform for long-term token sustainability.

By leveraging Hedera Hashgraph’s speed, cost-efficiency, security, and governance model, Give4Gain ensures a seamless, transparent, and future-proof system for rewarding generosity and fostering financial inclusion.
