When it comes to charitable crypto organizations and their modus operandi, many people have wildly different ideas about what to expect.
The great thing though is most of the charitable cryptocurrency organizations have made the world a better place.
When we got wind of World of Waves, which is an aquatic wildlife Charity that has a cryptocurrency component, we were excited to reach out.
Their CEO Sami Touzani was happy to answer all our questions.
Here is what he had to say.
$WOW Founder/CEO Sami Touzani
E-Crypto News:
Please, can you explain to us the general idea behind the World of Waves ($WOW)?
The general Idea behind world of waves is to bring blockchain technology to NGO’s and their causes around the world but also attract investors through incredible financial gain features.
We want to give back to the world and help the smallest voices be a part of it as well.
E-Crypto News:
Please, can you tell us about your new NFT marketplace and how it advocates cleaner oceans?
World of Waves started out as a token which was mainly focused on ocean conservation – after a while we realized the bigger picture and wanted to bring all charitable causes into one ecosystem.
We can’t just clean oceans while ignoring the fact that some countries don’t even have a recycling mechanism in place to curb these problems.
By realizing that the problem is much bigger than ever thought, we are attacking the main problem rather than just dealing with the symptoms caused by these much larger issues.
The marketplace will be the starting point for being able reach all areas of nature conservation.

Please, can you tell us about the $WOW token?
Wow
$WOW is a crypto token built on the Binance Smart Chain.
Like most tokens, $WOW has a built-in tax that is initiated with every transaction; this transactional tax is 11% and is broken down in the following way: 3.3% is redistributed back to all holders, 3.3% to the liquidity pool and 4.4% to the $WOW charity wallet.
As the charity wallet grows, funds are extracted monthly for donations that are voted on by the community and are geared towards ocean conservation and the preservation of aquatic wildlife.
The $WOW team will always be the most transparent developer team in the market with its investors.
E-Crypto News:
How can cryptocurrency and distributed ledger projects be used to advocate for greener practices on the whole?
By using proof of stake technology crypto can reduce the negative impact on the environment t and reduce our carbon footprint.
That’s also the main reason why $WOW decided to launch the project on the Binance smart chain because it’s not only fast and secure but also sustainable and green.
E-Crypto News:
How did you get involved with cryptocurrencies and their allied technologies?
The one thing that we all share as a team is our interest for new technologies and interest in crypto trading and investing.
Together we found this space to be filled with so much opportunity and ability to change lives.
With all this opportunity we saw a place where we could create change and take advantage of the market to make a difference in the world and create positive change.
E-Crypto News:
How can the World of Waves program ($WOW) be both profitable and charitable at the same time?
Simply by taxation on transactions – one of the most incredible features of $WOW is its tokenomics.
It’s a new way to invest and create passive income for yourself. Earn $WOW just by holding, earn $BNB just by holding.
In addition to the passive income a holder accrues, this function also fills a charity wallet for monthly donations. You simply give back to the world while earning money.
This is just the beginning, when the NFT marketplace is launched it will take our platform to an entirely new level, offering even more ways to give back and more ways to earn.
E-Crypto News:
What are your thoughts on the proliferation of meme coins within the cryptocurrency space?
We are meme lovers – who doesn’t love memes ? But in terms of using the term for us as a project…we are not a meme token, we don’t work just by hype, we made sure to give our token a use case.
However we completely stand behind the creation of community tokens and we believe this is the future of crypto.
E-Crypto News:
Please, can you tell us more about your passion for ocean wildlife? How did you get to this point in your passion?
As for myself, my family never had a lot of money to really go on vacation – I always saw the ocean and their wildlife in movies or on the internet – the first time when we were able to go to see the ocean was when I turned 13 years old.
We went to Montenegro and the spot we arrived at crushed my view and my expectation that I grew up with.
The pollution on the beach was horrific and the water was very dirty.
As I went through life, I spent time researching more about aquatic wildlife and how important the ocean for all humans and the world in general, I knew how wrong we were in terms of treating our oceans.
With World of Waves i finally have the opportunity to change that and help make a difference.
E-Crypto News:
How are cryptocurrencies the perfect vehicles for charitable activities?
Fiat currency has such a finite function, it is just an object you trade one thing for another, the value based on the what the economy makes it.
Imagine your money was smart enough to have built in functions that send it and distribute it to different locations that help you earn more money and even helps the world out while you’re spending it.
$WOW is smart money, it can do more than just being used as a currency.
Through the smart contract our token is not only a storage of value but at the same time a rewarding system and a system where people can generate passive income and automatically contribute to a bigger cause without the need to manually press “donate”.
E-Crypto News:
What are your expectations for the cryptocurrency space this summer?
We are bullish for this summer and the bull run will continue in the long run.
Crypto will become more mainstream and the use of it in everyday commerce will continue to grow.
E-Crypto News:
Why did you build your infrastructure on the Binance SmartChain?
Secure, Fast, low fees and the proof of Stake model is better for the environment.
E-Crypto News:
Please, can you tell us more about the $WOW liquidity pool?
We are tradeable on pancake swap which is a decentralized exchange, trading on a DEX requires a liquidity pool unlike your typical trading platforms which fill bid and ask orders. – from our presale offering, we took 70 % of our funds and the hefted it directly to the liquidity pool to provide the initial liquidity.
Furthermore with every transaction (sell, buy and swap) 3.3% goes back to the liquidity pool – so the liquidity grows and grows over time strengthening the position of the token.
E-Crypto News:
How do people buy $WOW tokens?
People can buy it on pancake swap at the moment – how to buy instructions are on wow.surf.
E-Crypto News:
Please, can you tell us more about frictionless yields and why you provided that as a staking feature within the $WOW ecosystem?
$WOW is a frictionless token as it is virtually traded and stored in a digital wallet.
It will be used easily through in app purchases and commerce through the $WOW platform by sending or receiving tokens through wallet apps easily.
Staking $WOW is a separate function and is probably one of our most incredible features.
Just like locking your money up in a high interest CD with a bank, you can stake your $WOW with us and earn APY rates up to 50% on average. Can you say “WOW”? That’s 10x the amount you can traditionally expect with a fiat bank.

What advice can you give anyone who wants to go into the world of cryptocurrencies and their allied technologies?
Always do your own research, this is a must, also make clear that cryptocurrency should be seen as a risk investment and by that i mean only invest money you are ready to lose.
When you’ve done your research, always trust your instincts and hold for the long run. Patience is the key to trading.
