GoodBuilders Demo Day Showcases 9 Impact Projects Building on GoodDollar

Three initiatives are demonstrating practical applications of the G$ token in everyday scenarios: - **[GoodDrops](https://gooddrops.xyz/)**: A location-based scavenger hunt driving physical foot traffic to local businesses. Users lock G$ tokens at specific GPS coordinates, which others can claim by visiting in person. - **[Balaio](http://usebalaio.com)**: A gig platform piloting a Web3 education program at Brazilian universities. Students earn G$ tokens while gaining certifications and launching microbusinesses. - **[SovAds](https://sovads.org)**: An on-chain advertising network that verifies genuine human impressions (eliminating bot traffic) and enables publishers to monetize their audiences with G$ payments. All three projects leverage G$ to create tangible economic activity, connecting digital currency to real-world commerce, education, and media.
