Abstract
Imagine a city where every decision about urban development is backed by AI, where citizens have a real say in making their neighbourhoods greener, and where being eco-friendly earns you rewards. That's what we're building with EcoSofia. We're mashing up blockchain, AI, and a dash of civic enthusiasm to create a platform that's going to revolutionize how Sofia (and maybe one day, other cities) approaches sustainability.
What Can You Do Here?
- Propose a Green Initiative: Got an idea for a community garden? A solar-powered unicycle sharing system? Bring it on!
- Vote on Projects: Like democracy, but for trees and stuff.
- Earn Rewards: Get rewarded for not turning Sofia into a concrete jungle.
- Analyse Environmental Impact: Use our AI to check if your brilliant idea won't accidentally summon Godzilla.
- Track Real-time Eco Data: Air quality, energy usage, how many times the mayor used their bike this week - it's all here.

Value Proposition
The Cool Stuff We Use:
- Chainbase: Our AI brain that crunches urban data and spits out eco-wisdom
- iExec and zkVerify: For when you want to vote on that new park, but don't want your nosy neighbor to know about it
- Blocksense: Our eyes and ears on the ground, feeding us real-time environmental data
Governance
Governance is at the heart of this use case. Privacy preserving voting for citizens (e.g. on new municipal projects) is offered. Citizens can directly propose new initiatives.
Process optimisation
Innovative combination of blockchain/DLT and AI technologies for collecting urban data and processing it quickly. Blocksense feeds environmental data into the system in real time.
Automation
AI automates many aspects of data preparation; real-time “block-sensing” automates many aspects of data injection from environmental sources.
