Circles, which just launched on the xDai Ethereum sidechain, gives each of its users a basic income in the form of a cryptocurrency called “Circles.” Theoretically, the value of a Circle, which at present is unclear, increases as more people use the network. Source

The idea of UBI can awesome if greatly implemented and goes a way in having a bit of meaningful impact on people receiving it. And with blockchain technology there's is a possibility of making it a success.

Circles is a newly launched UBI on Ethereum blockchain, upon signing up you receive 100 "Circles" and 14 "Circles" weekly, though at present the value of "Cilrcle" is unknown.

Anyone can create an account, but to verify it you’ll need “3 incoming trust connections,” according to an FAQ on the site. This means that three people must invite you to the platform.

I wonder why three people must invite you to the platform for signup, not sure what they are trying to achieve with that strategy but sounds a cool project though.

Any three Hivers on Circles already? Please send me an invite so I can get in on the UBI.
