About
Resource Rationing Decentralized Finance (dReFi)
A decentralized finance platform that uses blockchain technology to allocate dwindling resources (e.g., energy, food) based on community need and verified environmental impact. It prioritizes essential services and survival, using smart contracts to automate distribution and prevent hoarding during the collapse following environmental ruin when existing traditional based financial institutions have failed.
