let’s concrettelly record our contributions in our core community, transform in universel P2P value using a global currency as Fair-Coin.
In my opinion it’s more about our courage to make the step and agree than technical solutions.
I am ready for any experimentations…

I understand and take full responsibilty for my participation in the state of this planet and it’s inhabitants. But methodically and subtley I am making changes. How can we convince the land & resource holders to give freely what they have ? I don’t know, I know I was pulled in this direction away from it all at a young age, I refused to drive or own a car (Env. Impact reasons) and I never felt comfortable in buying property (tribes hold no title yet aware they belong)

these choices and observations were made in my teens NOW it 2015, we’re well into our final hour here on this amazing planet.

I have hope, I experience joy when I imagine the possibilities yet I am met with judgement my the many.

It’s inevitable that by nature or by man himself we will all be forced to change very soon,
but while these frequencies are running hot, I am one that completely understands and is very thankfull for the way you have communicated a very core awareness of a real issue….

lets keep puching hey 🙂
chin Up much love to you
Hebre

When I say valued, I mean they give you something you need, like food and shelter, or even money, for doing it.
So the other half of the equation is persuading people that our work is worth valuing.
It is also critical to take money out of the equation, because money introduces the notion of scarcity into exchange. Financially speaking money is worth more than anything you are likely to buy with it, because money yields interest while real things usually decline in value over time! So we need to get better at giving and receiving ‘in kind’.
