April 5, 2022 Story by Cory Henry As a Blockchain community contributor I’m often asked to justify my affinity for $GUAP. With tens of thousands of other tokens available on many different platforms, with hundreds of millions of market cap available, why continue to invest in this diaspora token? My answer is use case, scalability, and scarcity. https://www.thehypemagazine.com/2022/04/the-case-for-guapcoin/

July 9, 2023 Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler’s regulation-by-enforcement approach, as opposed to developing a much-needed regulatory framework for the crypto sector, may derail decentralized finance, setting up roadblocks for diverse entrepreneurs and impact projects. Entrepreneur Tavonia Evans, who is the founder of Guapcoin and plans to launch a decentralized exchange, wrote the SEC last month and noted that proposed rules “may inadvertently box out startups that are experienced in addressing lack of access and are working to rectify this issue.” https://www.forbes.com/sites/digital-assets/2023/07/09/sec-regulation-of-defi-could-box-…

January 1, 2023 A cryptocurrency specifically for the black community, like Guapcoin, has the potential to be a powerful tool for closing the wealth gap and supporting economic empowerment and community development. One of the key challenges faced by the black community is the wealth gap, which has persisted for decades and shows no signs of closing. This gap is the result of systemic racism and discrimination, as well as a lack of access to financial resources and opportunities. A cryptocurrency like Guapcoin could help to address this problem by providing a way for individuals and communities to build wealth and gain financial independence. https://medium…

November 7, 2022 Tavonia Evans is a self-described ‘mompreneur’ who has founded four businesses, as well as developing the decentralised cryptocurrency Guapcoin that she hopes will empower Black people and Black-owned businesses. In Evans’ view, people often get caught up in the technical intricacies of how cryptocurrencies function. This, she suggest, can stand in the way of them using it to better their lives. “The funny thing is, people don’t know a lot about traditional money, either, and they use it every day,” she says. “The main advantage of cryptocurrency is that it can empower regular people by removing the power structures, giving people more dir…
