# Why blockchain

Implementing parametric conditional donations on the blockchain adds the following benefits:

1. **Trustlessness:** Donors no longer need to trust an intermediary to hold and manage the funds. Instead, the funds are held in a trustless programmatic escrow, eliminating the risk of fraud or misuse.
2. **Transparency:** Every donation and the outcome reporting are easily verifiable on the blockchain, establishing a strong sense of trust among donors.
3. **Global accessibility:** Blockchain opens access to a global audience which allows anyone from all over the world to participate with any amount at a negligible cost.
