Idea For A Blockchain Powered Emergency Response Platform
I came up with a new idea for a blockchain-powered, decentralized emergency response application a few days ago. I don’t know why, but the Cell411 App crossed my mind, the wheels started turning, and then I thought, “Why not have a decentralized, tokenized network like Cell411?”
What is Cell411?
It’s a real-time, free emergency management platform.
You can join groups of friends and neighbors who will come to your aid in an emergency. It is decentralized, has customized alerts, and…..

Built By and For Activists
Police brutality, illegal searches and other government abuses can be broadcast out to your local cell with turn-by-turn directions to your location.
So I did a search to see if something like this is already in development.
IT IS!
I came across “Guardium” or “Guardian Circle”, a token for global, decentralized 911.

After reading some of their whitepaper and looking at their advisors, investors, and developers backgrounds and associations, I have to say that….
While I’m super excited to see something like this being developed, I think those of us in voluntaryist circles, who know the difference between right and wrong, can do better.
What did I find in the Guardiam info to give me pause?
I found, on their own website, some of their partners have been or are affiliated with….
The Council On Foreign Relations
The Clinton Global Initiative
The Rockefeller Foundation
So here’s my proposition.
A decentralized emergency assistance platform that….
Either issues its own cryptocurrency or accepts multiple current cryptos (or both)
Has a reputation score for each member
Services could include something as simple as roadside assistance, or could be something as serious as a medical emergency. It could also include response to abuses by the state.
Retains members privacy
When choosing people in your own personalized response group, an interesting option would be to ask a prospective member if they “can define what a right is.” (This filtering option would be voluntary)
If they can’t answer that question, then I probably don’t want them around in a tight spot, especially if the state is abusing me and I need assistance.
I would also hope that the development team and investors would not be associated with any statist institutions (like Guardian Circle is). In other words, they would be voluntaryists and know what a “right” is.
Well, there’s my two cents on this particular topic. I’d love to get comments and open dialogue going about this.
Thanks for your time and attention!
