The Heart of Crypto means stretching your boundaries, reaching out, and impacting the lives of those who need it most.
With one of the most active communities on the blockchain and over $3 Million in donations, we’ve proven that the collision of crypto and social impact is an explosive force.
The ELONGATE mission is to leverage community action and blockchain technologies to grow a global movement that defies the status quo and makes profitability intrinsically linked to positive social impact.
Let’s look back at what we’ve seen so far this month, and where we’re going.
ZHC Collaboration
We partnered with ZHC, a prominent YouTuber, to bring relief to some people in great need. The video drops very soon — be sure to check it out.
Partnership with The Giving Block
Elongate has donated more to The Giving Block charities than any other BSC project. Moving forward to its next phase of growth, Elongate announced its strategic partnership with The Giving Block to accelerate its goal of igniting social impact transformation empowered by blockchain technology.
Incorporation
Elongate incorporated as a legal entity on July 23 2021, making it one of the few cryptocurrencies to ever do so. With the incorporation finally complete, we can accelerate on quite a number of exciting things, especially focused on the token, our community, and our shared mission to create lasting social impact.
Token Tracker
How many Elongate tokens have you earned by holding? With our native token tracker, you can see exactly that.
Website Redesign
Our web development team has worked hard to redesign and build new pages to increase the user experience. They are implementing new back-end features, adding overall UI/UX improvements, and creating a user interface for our upcoming tech projects. We also launched our branding page, with our assets and brand guide.
Enzo FB/IG Filters
New Enzo themed camera filters were designed and launched on Facebook and Instagram. The first of the two designs is an Enzo mask styled with a spacesuit helmet. The second is styled with a snapback hat, glasses, and an Enzo figure sitting on the hat brim. These filters have become popular among the community on social media.
Overhauled Whitepaper
It needed a stronger design, more info on our products and development, and a bit of polish.
Community Forum
The launch of our community forum brings a new level of engagement within the community. The platform is a space for everyone to share ideas and engage with one another in a structured manner. Members can now access our FAQ, Project Status tracker, Brand Assets, and the Deflationary Forecast in the knowledge base section of the forum.
Elongate Swap
It just got easier than ever to buy #ELONGATE: a two-step process without ever leaving our site! Swapping BNB to EG is available globally, and we’re working on ways to make buying BNB easier for our friends in the US.

Merch & Apparel
With the success of our initial merchandise launch we designed and released two new sets of gear. Our Summer Collection incorporated themes of everyone’s favorite season. At the request of our community, we launched some new designs to celebrate the 75th Indian Independence Day.
TikTok Expansion
In addition to our main business account, we rolled out @ElongatorHouse with daily content.

She recently served as a diplomat managing development cooperation projects at The Office of the European Union Representative in Jerusalem. Danijela contributes her broad experience in non-profits and charity to Elongate.
Social Impact Website
Social impact isn’t just the redirection of financial resources. It’s putting our money where our mouth is, our wallet where our heart is, and building a better world for future generations.
Following our incorporation, we have a dedicated landing page for our social impact work.
Action Against Hunger
In August, we went live with Aron Flasher from Action Against Hunger, the largest international non-profit organization focusing on world hunger. Their programs provide nutrition, food security, water, sanitation, and hygiene to people in need. They also distribute food and support the development of local agriculture and economies to address the underlying causes of food insecurity and malnutrition. They are actively researching innovative ways to address severe malnutrition and hunger and have developed several methods to treat and identify severe malnutrition. The organization is also active in hard-to-reach communities, often separated by conflict zones and geographical barriers.
We contributed $75,000 to Action Against Hunger, facilitated by our partner, The Giving Block. Over $475,000 has been donated to date, which is on par with donations from corporations on the Fortune500. This contribution will support disaster relief in Haiti. They also used our previous contributions to launch “Match Pool” campaigns where other entities and individuals are encouraged to match our donations. So far, they have reached $50,000 in a recent “Match Pool” campaign. They aim to turn our previous $150,000 contribution into $300,000 through these campaigns by year-end.
Malala Fund
In July, we went live with Suzanne Ehlers from the Malala Fund, which aims to break the barriers that prevent 130 million girls from participating in education. The goal is to grant every girl the right to 12 years of free, safe, and quality education. They support local educators and advocates who understand the barriers in their respective regions. They focus on international, national, and local advocacy to provide equal opportunity for girls to achieve their education goals. The educational goals of the girls they support are high, and as a result, they put high expectations on leaders and policymakers.
We contributed $25,000 to the Malala Fund. Our contribution is the beginning of a long-term partnership and seed fund. We strongly believe in their cause. Girls around the world deserve education to advance their learning, leading, and human rights. They deserve the opportunity to contribute to society, economies and earn a living.
Direct Social Impact Initiatives
With the new formation of the EG Association, we have shifted part of our social impact focus to community-led initiatives. We aim to utilize our vast network of global community members and volunteers to organize positive social impact initiatives. In the last several months, we have supported several community-led social impact initiatives. We have more initiatives in Bali, Brasilia, Lebanon, and Nepal that are in progress.
Czechia
After a severe tornado destroyed small communities in Czechia, our community stepped forward to provide relief. Marek Markvart, an Elongate community member, led this initiative. When our social impact team heard about the tornado, we immediately wanted to help. We found Marek in our Telegram community channel, where he posted videos of himself distributing water and providing relief. We quickly reached out to him and asked if he would like us to provide help. Marek took the initiative and mobilized a volunteer group and provided the groundwork while Elongate provided the funding. They delivered tools and construction materials and also assisted with rebuilding homes.
Indonesia
Our Indonesian Ambassador, Ilham Maulana, organized a charity effort to celebrate Indonesia’s 76th Independence. In collaboration with the Sekadau Local Government, and POM (Persatuan Orang Melayu), Ilham coordinated with Elongate through our Ambassador Captain, Shubham Bisht. Ilham and his team distributed 69 basic food packages to female workers who are the only income providers for their families. In addition to food packages, they also distributed toiletries, masks, and information on health protocols. These women are the backbone of their families. These efforts were broadcasted on 9 local news media outlets.
India
Sandeep Kapoor is the Elongate Ambassador for India and a long-time community member. With India being one of the hardest-hit regions by COVID, Sandeep took it upon himself to provide relief to the homeless and underprivileged. Coordinated by Elongate through our Ambassador Captain, Shubham Bisht, he distributed food, clothes, and supplies to disadvantaged schoolchildren in Gurukuls and distributed meals and protective masks to families made homeless by the pandemic. Sandeep successfully mobilized a team of volunteers for these efforts.
The following projects are still in progress!
Wikipedia Article
Wikipedia has recently placed sanctions on crypto articles, but we are diligently working through them and following their strict guidelines for notability and bias.
Twitch Marketing
We see the Twitch audience as a huge untapped market, and we will be producing livestream content on Twitch with games and community activities. All of the proceeds from these events will fund our social impact drives.

Lifetime TV segment
A few months back, we announced that Elongate would be featured on a cable TV network. The segment has now been filmed and will air twice in October. It will feature our Chief Brand Officer, Alexander Gambon, and Michael Hund, the CEO of EB Research. It will focus on the fantastic work of EB Research and how we are supporting them using the blockchain and the power of crypto.

Community Vote Platform
The upcoming launch of our Community Vote platform will achieve a new level of community control and governance. This new feature allows holders to participate in voting on social impact initiatives and projects. To unlock voting power, the holder will verify their wallets through a wallet connect system. Holders will also be eligible for exclusive giveaways and prizes.
Elongate Custom API
The Elongate API Layer will allow crypto integration with third-parties.
Bridge to other Blockchains
Development of our bridge between the Binance Smart Chain (BEP-20) and Ethereum (ERC-20) blockchains is underway. The Elongate smart contract will independently launch on the ERC-20 blockchain. Establishing a new and separate contract on the ETH blockchain will provide an opportunity to implement new features and improve upon existing issues outlined by the CertiK audit. The new contract launch will be a big step for long-term security and sustainability.
ChRM Platform
The Charity & Consumer management platform, will be a first-of-its-kind marketplace that will put together Charities and organizations/Individual. This platform will allow Enterprises, Consumers, Charities to receive, transfer and manage funds and donation in a transparent way. Donations or funds (BTC, BNB and others) will be able to get traced all the way to a specific project or person, for full transparency and accountability. This platform will allow macro, micro and larger transfer amounts all built-in on top of the Elongate framework.
Salesforce Integration
First of its kind that will give Salesforce clients (150000 companies worldwide) the ability to embed transferring, receiving and stacking Crypto in their sales process, right in salesforce, all built-in on top of the Elongate framework.
Custom Decentralized Exchange
The Elongate decentralized exchange (DEX) will provide the functionality to trade directly on our website. This exchange will have its liquidity pool provided by Elongate and functionality to allow individuals to contribute to or create new liquidity pools. It’s intended to improve upon features that PancakeSwap lacks, such as informative error messages. The key benefit will be a more robust codebase and advantageous structure compared to other decentralized exchanges. We aim to base this on the Uniswap V3 codebase.
Project Status
Even more is in progress, like mobile games, podcasts, fiction & interactive media, a lottery app, localization initiatives, and charity drives in high-need locales. Our team is big, worldwide, and working hard. To keep up with these projects, visit the Knowledge Base on our forum.
