Experimentation is very important, but the word suggests something novel going on.

Community currencies like this have been tried hundreds if not thousands of times.

The result is almost always the same. A few people grok something important about the nature and meaning of money. A flurry of interest dies out quickly, regardless of the energy or skills of the organisers. Not much new exchange actually happens as a result.

If you want to experiment and potentially add to human knowledge, you have to build on the work that has already been done. There is academic work on this dating back decades and a vibrant community of practice which would love to support you.

Hello! New here on this platform... I'm curious, why do they use the ∈ symbol? It looks like the Worldcoin icon... I'm just curious!
