Guardian Circle is a new worldwide public utility offering global, decentralized 911 emergency response. It's the first blockchain-based emergency response system to crowdsource safety, enabling users to access a decentralized pool of pre-selected citizen-rescuers who are alerted in the event of an emergency, dispatching aid closest to the situation. These guardians are then rewarded in cryptocurrency with Guardium, a token that can be redeemed for more services or sold for fiat currency within the platform. Guardian Circle is headquartered in Santa Monica, CA and backed by prominent investors. Guardian Circle is currently available worldwide on iOS, Android and Amazon Alexa.
