Jojo goes to Russia: Brazilian crypto community unites to help child with paralysis

Posted by on April 9, 2021, tagged as

Jojo going to Russia is the hashtag used by the Brazilian crypto community.

Thus, Brazilian artists announce the opening of an NFT art auction.

The goal is to contribute to the treatment of young Jojo's child paralysis and autism.

Jojo goes to Russia becomes NFT

Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) are digital representations of unique, collectible items and with digital scarcity verifiable by blockchain.

This NFT technology created a new way to monetize, transact and reward artists.

In other words, we have a new way of monetizing creations and providing proof of provenance and authenticity via decentralized protocols.

Joining the movement to experiment and explore the potentials of NFT, Brazilian artists came together to create a collection ”Jojo goes to Russia ''whose goal, like all others, is to make money, but that money has a special purpose.

Jojo needs 250,000 reais

The amount collected for the works will be destined to help JOJO, a child with a mutation in the MEF2C gene.

She will be going to Russia to perform an allogeneic cord blood transfusion for infantile cerebral palsy.

However, to make this trip, Jojo needs R $ 250.000,00. 

This disorder is responsible for causing difficult to control epilepsies, autism and movement disorders.

But, as a good adventurer, she is prepared to explore new lands.

The search is for treatments with the potential to help both her and many other children.

NFT potential to help social and special causes

Therefore, in addition to financing JOJO's trip to Russia, the collection aims to show how NFT is a tool whose possibilities are limitless and can be used for incredible purposes.

While it offers its courage, we explore the NFT as a sophisticated system capable of decentrally financing new treatments capable of curing many children.

Thus, the arts are available in the OpenSea and bids can be made until April 21st.

After the auction closes, the token is automatically transferred to the winner's Ethereum wallet.

Finally, the money collected from the Auction will be automatically transferred to the portfolio of the person responsible for JOJO.

Would you like to donate otherwise to Jojo's cause?

Joana's family created a 'little girl' nicknamed “JOJO goes to Russia” to facilitate donations in cash and cryptocurrencies.

Anyone can contribute any amount in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies on Gusson wallets.

Those who prefer can join more than 256 supporters (so far) and donate any amount in reais, either by Wise App or PayPal (+ taxes)bank slip, credit card or PayPal, on the cow.

In the past few days Jojo has raised about R $ 70.000, almost 28% of the target, not counting donations in cryptocurrencies.
