AI-Powered Blockchain Project to Tackle Real-World Problems Launches in Uyo
Udeme Utip, Uyo
A community-driven blockchain project that combines artificial intelligence and decentralized participation to solve real-world problems is set to launch in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State capital.
The initiative, powered by EL-HAKAVOD Consulting in partnership with TAGET, is built on the Solana blockchain and seeks to shift cryptocurrency use from speculation to social impact.
According to the developers, the token’s utility application will enable people to submit problems such as lack of potable water, poor healthcare, education gaps or social injustice, while AI tools verify claims and blockchain technology ensures transparency. It will also create opportunities for entrepreneurship, skill development and the growth of SMEs with the aid of AI tools.
“We are not building another meme coin or speculative asset, this project is about using digital assets to solve real problems. Anyone from any part of the world can submit a challenge, and the solution process will be traceable on the blockchain.” Imoh Austin, Lead Consultant for EL-HAKAVOD Consulting said.
According to him, to ensure broad participation, 55 per cent of the project’s one billion-token supply has been allocated to the community, saying that holders will be able to stake, vest and earn up to 16 per cent annual returns while voting on governance decisions.
“We want ownership to be collective from day one, no hidden wallets or manipulation. Every vote, mission and transaction will be open on the blockchain.” Austin explained.
“The project introduces a dual treasury system, a Mission Treasury to fund humanitarian and community projects, and an Operational Treasury for ecosystem development, partnerships and innovation.
This structure guarantees sustainability and prevents mismanagement. We designed it so that impact and growth can run side-by-side without conflict,” Austin explained.
He likened the platform to a decentralized version of crowdfunding systems like GoFundMe but with stronger accountability. “People know GoFundMe,” but this takes it further. With AI verification and blockchain records, nobody can fake a problem or siphon funds. You can trace every coin from donation to delivery.”
Austin, who spoke extensively on digital illiteracy in Akwa Ibom, said part of the project’s mandate is education. “I am not comfortable with the level of digital awareness in our state,” he said. “Many people don’t even understand what cryptocurrency or blockchain is. That’s why we are not just launching a coin; we are launching an education movement.”
He revealed that the organisation has been holding cryptocurrency symposiums and training sessions to demystify blockchain technology for young people.
“We know there’s confusion between Ponzi schemes, forex and blockchain, Blockchain is not Forex. It is a decentralized system where assets are traceable, transparent and protected from manipulation.”
On concerns about fraud, he said the technology itself promotes transparency. “In blockchain, every transaction is traceable. Nobody can hide anything,” he stated. “Fraud exists everywhere, even in government, but this platform is built to expose and prevent it.”
Austin further disclosed that the team has registered the project as a limited liability company and secured partnerships, including with a tech skill centre in Akwa Ibom, where young people will be trained in blockchain and artificial intelligence. “We want to train at least 1,000 young people in decentralized finance in the next five years,” he mentioned.
He also hinted that collaborations with local government officials to empower unemployed graduates with digital skills. “Enough of seeing graduates in betting shops,” he said. “If they understand this system, they can create value and earn legally from the blockchain.”
On the financial prospects of the project, Austin said early adopters stand to benefit. “People ask, ‘What will I gain?’ The truth is, cryptocurrency has transformed lives globally. If they come in early and understand the system, they can solve personal financial problems. But this is not a get-rich-quick scheme,” he warned.
He stressed that the project is anchored on legitimacy and global standards. “We are launching on the Solana blockchain, an internationally recognised network,” he said. “You can verify it on CoinMarketCap, we are on Facebook, X space and telegram as Community Token.This is not hidden.
“The public launch and official name unveiling will take place on Sunday, at Café One, Oron Road, Uyo. Stakeholders, tech enthusiasts, community leaders and young innovators are expected to attend.
“This is a chance for Akwa Ibom to be part of something global. The world is moving towards digital finance and decentralized systems. We don’t want to be left behind.” He maintained
