Humanize
Crypto Overview
Purpose and Utility
Humanize ($HMT) is a cryptocurrency token designed to power the Human Protocol, a decentralized infrastructure for human workforce coordination. The token serves as the native currency for payments between job requesters and workers performing human intelligence tasks like data labeling, content moderation, and image verification.
Business Model
The protocol facilitates legitimate work opportunities and fair compensation for human labor. Job requesters stake HMT tokens to create tasks, while workers earn tokens by completing these tasks. The model is transparent and involves real value exchange through actual work performed.
Real-World Adoption
The Human Protocol has established partnerships with notable projects and companies in the AI and machine learning space. The platform has processed millions of human intelligence tasks, particularly through their CAPTCHA application hCaptcha, which serves as a privacy-focused alternative to Google's reCAPTCHA.
Platform Development
There is active development on the protocol, with regular updates to the codebase and expansion of supported job types. The project maintains transparency through public GitHub repositories and detailed documentation.
Token Distribution
The token distribution includes allocations for ecosystem growth, development, and community initiatives. While there are significant allocations to team and early investors, these are subject to vesting schedules to ensure long-term alignment.
