I hope that you guys are observing how most ICOs and IPOs and other initial coin offerings are supporting their teams. There are usually the automatic percentage allocated for them, for the sole reason that they created the currency. Which eventually leads to the team members dumping too much on the market when the price starts rising, killing momentum and trust over the whole thing and ending the viability and sustainability of the whole project and their related smaller endeavors. Good Karma Society took a different approach. Their new KarmaToken, launched last November 02, 2016, will be distributed to project leaders only according to the time and efforts they are spending for the development of the project. “In comparison here in our Good Karma Society, our leaders will only get KarmaToken by declaring the time/hours they can dedicate for the Society per day, 6 days a week.
