PulseAid
PulseAid is a decentralized charity platform on Arbitrum that uses zero-knowledge proofs for private institution verification, economic staking to prevent fraud, and smart contract escrow to secure donations. Institutions stake funds, raise money transparently, and submit proof of impact before receiving funds. Donors track every dollar through 6 transparency layers and see exactly where their money goes. With optimistic governance, automatic proof validation, and near-zero fees (~0.1%), PulseAid makes charity transparent, efficient, and unstoppable - ensuring donations reach those who need them most.

Descripción
Traditional charity platforms suffer from fraud (10-15% of donations), high fees (5-15%), no proof of impact, and censorship risks. Existing blockchain charity solutions are "Web2.5" - using blockchain as a database while maintaining centralized control. We solve this with true decentralization: ZK-proofs for private verification, economic staking for fraud prevention, optimistic governance for speed, and 6-layer donation tracking for complete transparency.
