With 25 million native birds dying each year, we need to consider different ways to tackle our pest problem. Especially if New Zealand hopes to become pest free by 2050.

While government funding does help, it’s abundantly clear it will never be enough (and will always be subject to changes in governments and policies). A longer-term and more independent solution is needed.

The Pest Free Token cryptocurrency (called $PFT) is an independent market-solution, helping to save native birds by generating funding for pest eradication 24/7. With a global market cap worth at times up to $5bil, cryptocurrency could be the solution our birds need the most.

Every $PFT purchase helps. There is no minimum amount you have to buy, and you can sell them whenever you want.

As an added incentive, people who buy $PFT tokens (known as ‘holders’) receive bonus tokens for free. You can now literally make money and fund pest eradication at the same time.

This makes us not only the first charitable cryptocurrency in New Zealand, but also the only one to incentivise your contribution.
