Karna : A Crowdfunding Platform with Decentralized Autonomous Organization Based Verification using Blockchain Technology

Abstract

Karna is a platform designed to streamline and secure crowdfunding for social causes. It operates without the need for a central authority, instead relying on a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) of anonymous volunteers to validate campaign legitimacy through a voting mechanism using smart contracts. This approach ensures that all funds are directed to genuine causes. Donors can contribute to campaigns without disclosing personal information. By eliminating middlemen and leveraging smart contracts, Karna facilitates transparent crowdfunding.
