= blockchain-based ethical coffee project
Contextual Quote
"a positive example is EthicHub. Instead of assuming farmers will instantly adapt to blockchain-based lending, they work through local nodes—trusted members of farming communities who act as bridges between smallholder farmers and DeFi tools. With some great work done with communities in Chiapas (Mexico) and beyond, they have managed to prioritise relationships and real-world usability over technology alone."
- Tereza Bizkova [1]
Description
1. Joshua Dávila (interviewing Giulio Quarta):
"EthicHub is simply a protocol that allows investors in the North of the world — from people with money, who want to invest in good, regenerative things and make a profit — to invest in regenerative agriculture projects, in particular high quality coffee production, in Latin America, in particular in Mexico.
It works very well and it has worked since 2017 because in Mexico the cost of credit is very high, with many bad loans offerings: EthicHub, with a clearing system and using some elements of blockchain technology, allows people to invest in these projects, while allowing farmers to have liquidity to make productive investments, produce good coffee, and then sell it.
There are a lot of different stakeholders, there are the stakers, the farmers, the local cooperatives like the one lucía is part of, that make it all work."
2. Blockchain for Good:
"Ethic Hub, founded in 2019 in Spain, is a company that connects investors with small-scale farmers so they can carry out their harvests, particularly of coffee, and sell their products on markets without intermediaries.
The goal is for 50% of the profits to go directly to them.
Ethic Hub specifically targets unbanked farmers living in Mexico. The team has developed a peer-to-peer financing (crowdlending) platform where numerous small investors, with a minimum of 20 euros, fund the agricultural activities of small farming communities while receiving interest on the loans."
