Free Flowing Currency

Rediscover the Natural Economic Order

A public Honour-based credit system where everyone is their own central banker.

SPEND


When you create credits (IOUs) to spend, you are drawing on your public Honour.

So your Honour rating goes down.

EARN


When you earn credits — by selling something, or doing work for someone — your Honour rating goes back up.

BALANCE


Every week the system cancels a percentage of your credits and debits.
It helps restore your Honour rating.

Traditionalist meets Futurist

 

Contrary to popular myth, the earliest civilisations did not use either barter or coins to buy and sell.  Over 5,000 years ago, our ancestors used credit systems, or I Owe You's.  The records of Who Owes Who were kept by central authorities such as temple priests, often in the form of markings on clay tokens or slates.



Ever heard the phrase "wipe the slate clean, and start again"?  This was a popular ancient practice for dealing with problems caused by too much debt.  Kings and rulers would periodically declare a nation-wide debt cancellation, or "Jubilee".  All the records of debts (IOUs) were destroyed, so everyone could start over with "a clean slate".



Deror revives this traditionalist practice, with a futurist techno twist.  The records of everyone's IOUs are not kept by a central public authority.  They are recorded in your own encrypted digital ledger.  And instead of waiting a lifetime for a wise and powerful ruler to order a total debt cancellation, the deror algorithm automatically cancels a small percentage of everyone's IOUs, every single week.
