DECENTRALIZED AIR QUALITY MONITORING

Join a global network of validators to monitor, verify, and share air quality data. Bringing transparency and accuracy to environmental monitoring through decentralized technology.

AIR QUALITY CRISIS

According to the World Health Organization, 99% of the global population breathes air that exceeds WHO guideline limits. We're building a transparent network to monitor and improve air quality worldwide.

The Global Impact

Air pollution is responsible for an estimated 7 million premature deaths annually. Most affected are low and middle-income countries, where air quality monitoring is often insufficient or non-existent.

BECOME A VALIDATOR

Join our network of validators and earn rewards for providing accurate air quality data from your location. Help build a transparent, decentralized environmental monitoring system.

Why Become a Validator?

Earn Rewards

Receive 0.0008175892220810245 SOL for each validated air quality reading that meets our quality standards.

Environmental Impact

Contribute to a global database of air quality information that helps researchers and policymakers.

Decentralization

Be part of a network that ensures air quality data is transparent, accurate, and tamper-proof.

Onboarding Process

Connect Phantom Wallet

Create and connect your Phantom wallet to receive SOL rewards for your validator contributions.

The Phantom wallet securely stores your private keys and enables you to receive rewards in SOL cryptocurrency.

Get OpenWeather API Key

Sign up for an OpenWeather account and generate an API key for location validation.

Submit Validation Data

Connect your air quality sensor and submit readings to our decentralized network.

Receive SOL Rewards

Get paid 0.0008175892220810245 SOL for each successful validation.
