Blockchain Reparations Using Pi Coin

February 8, 2026

Blockchain Reparations + Pi Coin

A Transparency-First Reparations Pilot by the Reparations Labor Union

Blockchain Reparations is a civic-tech pilot project of the Reparations Labor Union exploring how digital tools can support economic repair, community accountability, and transparent distribution.

We are starting small, with integrity, and with what we already have.

Why Pi Coin?

Pi Coin is a digital currency designed to be more accessible than traditional cryptocurrency. Instead of requiring expensive computers, Pi can be mined on a phone, making participation possible for everyday people.

For our community, Pi is meaningful because it represents:

  • access without gatekeeping

  • value created through participation

  • a global network with low barriers to entry

  • a tool for local exchange and community trade

We are not using Pi as hype.
We are using Pi as a pilot tool for repair, transparency, and independence.

Founder Contribution

This initiative begins with a founder contribution from Anita Belle:

  • Total Pi mined: 518+ Pi

  • Pi available on Mainnet (treasury): 386.93 Pi

Mainnet Pi is the portion currently available for exchange and community use. Additional mined Pi may be locked, pending migration, or otherwise not yet available.

What Blockchain Reparations Means

Reparations are not revenge.
They are repair.

Reparations mean:

  • accounting for stolen labor and stolen opportunity

  • restoring what was extracted

  • repairing generational harm with measurable outcomes

  • building systems that prevent the harm from repeating

Blockchain technology can help because it enables:

  • transparency

  • public accountability

  • auditable records

  • democratic decision-making

  • community-controlled distribution models

Who This Pilot Is For

The Reparations Labor Union’s pilot project is building toward transparent distribution models designed to benefit people of African descent, including the African diaspora.

As our pilot expands, the intended beneficiary community includes people who are:

  • at least 1/8 African descent, and

  • prioritized for Foundational Black Americans, Afrodescendants, and Africans, consistent with reparative purpose and historical harm.

Eligibility, verification, and privacy standards will be published as the program scales.

How Pi Will Be Used

We are building a small-scale pilot that uses Pi Coin for:

1) Local Exchange

We aim to accept Pi Coin for select items and services through the Exodus to Mars shop and events, creating a community exchange loop.

2) Paying Black Creators and Vendors

As the pilot grows, Pi may be used to pay:

  • designers

  • editors

  • artists

  • educators

  • local vendors

  • community organizers

3) Microgrants

We plan to launch small community microgrants funded through Pi and other donations, with transparent criteria and public reporting. Microgrants are intended to support economic repair and stability in the beneficiary community.

4) Building a Reparations Ledger

Every Pi donation and disbursement will be recorded in a public transparency ledger to prevent misuse and build trust.

5) Testing Fair Distribution Models

We are building pilot frameworks for:

  • community voting

  • identity-safe verification

  • transparent criteria

  • anti-fraud safeguards

  • equitable distribution

The goal is to develop a model that can scale into larger programs without losing integrity.

Transparency Promise

Blockchain Reparations is built on one principle:

Trust must be earned.

We publish a transparency ledger to show:

  • what came in

  • what went out

  • when it happened

  • and what it supported

We report digital assets in native units (example: Pi) unless otherwise stated. Any USD equivalents, if shown, are estimates for reporting purposes only.

DAO Governance (Coming Soon)

We are building toward a community governance model that functions like a DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization).

This means:

  • proposals can be submitted

  • the community can vote

  • funds are distributed based on rules, not favoritism

We will begin with a transparency-first model and expand governance as participation grows.
