I wonder if people curated lists of "public goods donation addresses" and then hosted something like a leaderboard of people who donated most to any/all public goods addresses, so people or companies could be recognized with social clout (if they want) for giving back. Automatically make a page for me that shows who I've donated to a when. Would that accomplish the same goals as much or better?
(I wonder if there is an opportunity for a tax exempt NGO middleman org(s) to validate 'public good" status and make donations that flow through deductible?)
Like, if I could read an article about someone who did something societally beneficial that probably wont 'pay off' and it was easy to donate $20 to them, I might do it sometimes. Sending $20 to an oracle fund trusting they'll allocate it wisely feels weird to me - I'd need to see a long record of smart allocations to trust them.
