If your website is on the scam list and you think that you are not a scammer, contact us. After you provide us with all the proof that you are in Crypto World with good intentions, we will delist you. Usually, you get in this category because you are hiding your team, you have a bad reputation(you are tricking, deceiving, scamming people), and you haven't got a written project whitepaper or is a shitty one....

which is governed by Element Node owners, self-governs the distribution of Element
Digital Rewards. Element Digital Rewards are earned in exchange for work and
action on the Element network. Element Digital Rewards are designed to have utility
throughout the Element Ecosystem for the purchase of Element United’s products
and services. The Element Digital Reward is not an investment product and may
never have any value outside of the Element Ecosystem. Element Node owners
should not expect to recognize any value from the Element Digital Reward other than
its utility within the Element Ecosystem. Element United does not anticipate correlation between the Element Digital Reward value and Element United’s business
activities. The Element Blockchain is not backed by gold.

PROBLEMS
AND
SOLUTIONS
Physical mining for gold and other precious elements is still a highly-profitable industry. In some cases, it can also be notoriously corrupt or only available to those with
deep international connections—or deep pockets.
Furthermore, hoarding non-industrial-use minerals means that much of the world’s
mined gold and precious metals goes straight to private bank vaults or national
reserves.
Today, our world requires conventional mining for industrial-use minerals like
cobalt, iron, silicon, lithium, and other critical elements but it doesn’t need to be so
destructive.
Often, mining, especially in developing countries, is an under-regulated industry with
a vast output of greenhouse gases (GHG) and catastrophic environmental impact.
Irresponsible mining operations come at a great human cost. Conventional methods
decimate natural ecosystems and prevent communities from engaging in traditional
activities, while industrial mining releases hazardous chemicals, such as mercury,
into the groundwater, rendering large areas uninhabitable
Conventional mining fails
people and the planet in
the following ways:
1. ACCESSIBILITY

HOW OUR
TECHNOLOGY
WORKS
Layer 2 is a hard fork of Ethereum, meaning developers at Element have split the
blockchain into a new version that follows new rules. One of these new rules on
layer 2 is the consensus mechanism, using proof of authority. Now, validator nodes
approve transactions, consuming less time and energy than previous methods. It
also processes transactions at a much higher rate. Layer 2 is where algorithmically
generated reward distribution corresponding to identified action(s) associates with
transactions validated on the Element Blockchain.
Element’s first layer is the Ethereum blockchain, the decentralized, open-source
blockchain with smart contract powers. It’s where Element’s ERC-20 token
ELEMENT will live. Proof-of-stake (PoS) now underlies Ethereum’s consensus mechanism, because it is more secure, less energy intensive, and better for implementing
new scaling and layering solutions.
On this layer, an immutable ledger operating with distributed nodes confirms user
actions. Element’s community does this in the real world: contributing to environmental
reclamation projects, supporting exploited communities, and stopping harmful mining
practices. These action points can be converted to Element Digital Rewards.
On top of these blockchain layers, we are building the Element ecosystem. That
consists of multiple divisions:

ELEMENT Digital Rewards are generated by the blockchain and are cryptographically secured. Element Nodes earn these rewards by supporting and confirming
transactions in the ecosystem of digitized mining.
ELEMENT Digital Rewards can also be earned by playing the Element Game.
Element United will soon launch Gold Crew Atlas (GCA) to develop NFTs and a game
that works within the Element digital economy. This collection and game will create
gamification around Element United Committed mines and bring a larger audience to
the Element mission.
This awareness will provide utility for the Element blockchain, give back to those
affected by unsafe mining practices, and reward our Node and NFT holders and
players of our game.
Element United will be releasing multiple NFT collections. Each collection will utilize
information from real world mines and their 43-101 reports (Standards of Disclosure
for Mineral Projects).
The GCA Genesis Collection is a PFP Utility NFT. It will look great, has rarity attributes based on an Element United committed mine, gives back to communities hurt
by poor mining practices via mint day earnings and royalties, will integrate within the
GCA game, and provide rewards to NFT holders.
The GCA Genesis Collection will be launching in Q1 2023. There is an exclusive
Allowlist for Element Smart Node holders.
Element United will donate 5% of mint and royalty revenue from our NFT collection to humanitarian efforts dedicated to providing relief to communities negatively
impacted by mining. These funds will be in a public wallet where we will share details
and photos of our humanitarian and reclamation efforts.

Beginning 2023, the “Element Ethical Mining Certification” (EEMC) aims to facilitate a
solution for sustainable mining and production practices from extraction to the consumer; to independently assess and certify the environmentally and socially responsible production of mined elements; to establish credibility between governments, mine
owners, third-party agencies, local communities, and other vested stakeholders using
an immutable ledger system facilitated by blockchain technology.
The EEMC will be ethically designed to adhere to a range of safeguards from the
moment of resource extraction, then through its activities, governance, methods, and
environmental impact to guarantee the sustainability of the entire mining-to-consumer
ecosystem.

Mines can operate cohesively with surrounding communities and advocate for the
environment while promoting local businesses, improving livelihoods, and creating
jobs. With a certification process, we will ensure higher standards where mines can
also create an ethical economy aimed at improving:
Guarantee the origin and ethics of elements by adopting sustainable protocols,
consistency of monitoring with spot-check audits, and using blockchain technology
from the point source of extraction across the supply chain.
Realize climate neutrality by engaging with the most rigorous climate protocols to
counter both current and former emissions to demonstrate the mine’s commitment
to environmental protection
Ensure compliance with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) requirements.
Provide for land reclamation, rehabilitation, and community-driven reforms to enable
ecosystem resilience.
Mitigate or counteract environmental and human health effects while upholding proper
business integrity and ensuring a transparent work process that customers can trust.
Invest in initiatives that strive for societal equity while protecting clean air and water
and conserving the climate and endangered ecosystems.
These initiatives will allow people in these communities to benefit from economic
growth and quality of life due to increased employment opportunities and improved
living conditions.
Mining can be a progress engine for a prosperous future for all parties involved -
miners, investors, and local community members.

Keeping rare earth elements in the ground prevents several thousand metric tons of
carbon from being released into the atmosphere daily. But when mining is deemed
necessary, carbon offsets or credits are one way to ensure we maintain carbon neutrality to help preserve our planet. 1

A SINGLE CARBON CREDIT REPRESENTS ONE METRIC TON OF CARBON
DIOXIDE THAT HAS EITHER BEEN CAPTURED OR OTHERWISE PREVENTED
FROM ATMOSPHERIC POLLUTION. AUTHENTICATION AND VERIFICATION
OF CARBON CREDITS IS A COMPLEX ENDEAVOR, BUT PRESENTS OPPORTUNITIES FOR MINES TO BECOME EVEN MORE SUSTAINABLE. ²
Carbon tokenization means that Element United can use blockchain technology to
securely and efficiently track, trace, and transfer carbon volumes kept in-ground
when mines lower or shutter production. Element United will be able to validate in
real-time each metric ton of carbon we list on the blockchain and make transactions more efficient and transparent, help create liquidity for the carbon transaction
market, and prevent double-counting claims. 3

The mining industry needs a digital chain of custody: A linear ecosystem of NFTs
that tracks a precious element from the mine all the way to your finger or wrist as a
finished piece of jewelry.
Element United is creating an E-Vault system of NFTs to protect your precious elements with a digital proof of ownership for every step of the journey. This will allow
owners to:
• Maintain proof of origin for all fine jewelry
• Verify and substantiate ownership for resale
• Provide digital evidence of warranty
• Verify ethical and sustainable sourcing of heirlooms

Element United’s marketplace is where users will come to exchange and use their
Element Digital Rewards.
The initial phases of the marketplace will look and act very similar to a standard
shopping cart experience. The marketplace will continue to grow and expand with
our products and technology, and Phase 2 and 3 is where it will become a fully-integrated digital experience.
The Marketplace will allow users to purchase paraphernalia such as t-shirts, hats, and
Element branded accessories using Element Digital Rewards, USD, and other cryptos.
The Marketplace will achieve full functionality, with the technological power necessary to allow users to exchange their digital assets, including Element Digital
Rewards. Users running Element Nodes will significantly benefit from this feature
since it will allow them to easily exchange their Element Digital Rewards for ethically-mined real gold and silver.
The Marketplace will incorporate the digital assets of our entertainment platforms
and games. This will allow users to purchase, transfer and utilize NFT and gaming
assets and tie them to their respective wallets.
The Marketplace will incorporate our humanitarian and give-back initiatives. Users
can purchase goods and services for donation to areas of the world negatively
impacted by mining and specifically to regional communities in developing countries. For example, if a user wants to purchase a goat for a family charged with mine
reclamation, the user may do so. An Element United partner or representative would
deliver the goat to the family.
The Element Marketplace will be a place where users can support Element United’s
Mission in multiple ways. We are excited to see how this critical feature contributes
to community engagement and global connection.

First, mining companies that employ slave labor, child labor, unsafe working conditions, or any other human exploitation must be stopped. The Element Certification
Process ensures that mining operations do not engage in these dangerous and
unhealthy conditions.
When a mine commits to Element Certification, they must comply with specific
anti-exploitation safeguard requirements for all of their workers and a commit to
“give back” initiatives supporting local communities.
Second, when a mine commits its assayed assets to the blockchain and stops
mining, we create new digital economies around these mines through NFT and playto-earn games.
These NFTs will be representative of the communities near the mines. For example,
if a mine in Ghana commits to stop mining, the NFT collection created to represent
that mine would reflect the surrounding community, including local animals, the surrounding environment, and the Ghanaian people themselves.
The games will also mirror the attributes of the original mine (environmental factors,
location, gold quantity, location, and more.). A portion of the NFT and game revenue
will be allocated to these communities through reclamation projects, employment
opportunities, schools, roads, and other dedicated initiatives.
Element’s Humanitarian
Initiatives
WE UNDERSTAND THAT MANY COMMUNITIES RELY ON MINING TO SUPPORT
THEIR FAMILIES. THE GOAL OF ELEMENT UNITED IS TO CREATE BETTER
OPPORTUNITIES FOR THESE COMMUNITIES SO THAT THEY CAN STOP
MINING WITHOUT SUFFERING FINANCIALLY.
By developing reclamation projects, initiating new farming practices, creating new
jobs, and supporting local causes, Element United believes we can create better
opportunities that revitalize local economies outside the mining industry.
We also believe that mining companies that pledge to mine responsibly should
abandon exploitative practices and provide all workers with fair wages and safe
working conditions.
