    Haha you did not answer my questions, but you are clearly passiinate about this vision and I like that. As I understand it you describe a sort of moral credit that has value within the community that hands it out. So I imagine that a board would mint these tokens? What would these tokens buy you?

    We will grant that most in the community will be commited to the cause so they will want to participate, but other than respect, why and what should I grant/sell you (you having some credit) for helping the cause. Couldn’t I just grant my effort to the cause directly? I get the renown aspect, but we also have commemorative mission patches pins and stickers for that.

    So in short, I am not questioning the renown/trust mechanism of a moral credit system, but I am questioning the monetary function.

    Don’t take this a rejection of the idea, the rebirth of the internet has to start somewhere and that might be here by visionaries.
