Honestly, it might be a little bit disruptive to modern economics.
It would work just like any other crypto currency, but the minting would go to people who need financial assistance via a proof-of-brain verification process. Basically they would need to prove to the community that they need assistance, and the community would choose what goes where by voting, like on SteemIt.
The real problem that I would predict with a crypto like this is that the exchange value might consistently decrease if nobody holds onto the tokens after minting them. There would need to be some kind of secondary market value for the tokens to attract investors.
