EINSTEINIUM FOUNDATION UPDATE (May 2021)

To the Einsteinium community,

Roadmap to MIL

The Einsteinium Foundation is proud to announce that we are in the final stages of releasing MIL. A detailed description of MIL can be found in our Blue Paper. MIL represents a long-term and forward-looking project for the Foundation, and a defining project which solidifies the future of this organization.  As we prepare to enter the final stages for the release of MIL, we need to take several necessary actions. First, we will be restarting the MIL pool, which has been running in test-mode while we worked out the technical details of the new coin.  Next, we plan to release our MIL code and recent wallet builds to the community. Our reason for this is to keep with the ethos of cryptocurrency and an open-source future. Additionally, we will continue to build out the ecosystem of support systems and software for our new coin. This includes easy ways to interact and transact with MIL. And includes integration for our philanthropic donations towards scientific research. Details of the MIL release will be posted and updated regularly here, as they become available for distribution to the public. Finally, we will release an updated roadmap on the main website describing our plans and next steps. Stayed tuned for an announcement about the roadmap. We are thankful for our community and all it offers. This is a very exciting time for Einsteinium!

EMC2 Fellowships

In 2018, the Einsteinium Foundation, a non-profit organization (NPO) and the world's first NPO to be backed by cryptocurrency, established our annual award program. We did this in order to offer grant money to directly support scientific research. 

We continue to balance our operations as a cryptocurrency and philanthropic organization. Therefore, on the anniversary of Einstein’s birthday, we announced that the Einsteinium Foundation will support the Einsteinium Fellowships, with details of this initiative described in our recent blog post. This marks a very special occasion for the Einsteinium Foundation as our organization's founding was inspired by Albert Einstein. For this program, there are no restrictions on the type of projects that are eligible but they must be scientific in nature and well-thought out. Additionally, eligible projects must follow a general ethos to push human knowledge forward, and strive to build us a better, safer and more stable future. In this regard, the fellowships support researchers across career stages including graduate, postgraduate, or professorships by offering funds to be utilized for the advancement of a scientific project. This year, we will be offering the Einsteinium Fellowships in the form of 10 fellowships to be awarded on a rolling basis throughout the year. Each fellow will be awarded 10,000 EMC2 in unrestricted funds. We encourage you to spread awareness of this initiative and if interested, to direct your application here.
