Kudos, @\[749357781:2048:Brock\]!\

\"Pierce now says he will donate \$1 billion into a decentralized autonomous community run on a blockchain. Governed by a constitution, the community will be registered as a charitable organization, he says, whose participants will receive voting rights to allocate its money. It is set to launch June 1, based on a new blockchain called [EOS.IO](http://EOS.IO){target="_blank"} that Pierce helped launch. \"I\'ll make more money,\" he shrugs. \"I\'m not worried about it.\"\
