HungerHash: A Distributed Network for Child-Hunger Relief based on Hedera Hashgraph
Abstract
This paper proposes a hunger relief network based on crypto-currency and a hybrid mix of centralized and decentralized databases which is totally formed by the volunteers and donors and is out of control of centralized organizations. The centralized part of the database maintains non-sensitive information with less need to security features, mainly providing motivative information for donors and giving feedback to know that how their gifts were spent. The decentralized part of the design is based on a third-generation Distributed Ledger Technology which contains sensitive information of payments and receipts and flow of supply chain, which is designed to be fast, secure and fault tolerant.
