Two pixel currency.





Currency is valuable especially in our technological world.  Debt currency on a large scale is a dinosaur but what about a gift currency: work is performed and recorded.  That record is traded.  As each trade is made its history becomes a testament to community economy. (*Information regarding debt currency inefficiencies.)

This has been done on paper.  On a small scale it cannot be forged as each transaction is signed.
"Oh I see you cooked meals for old Mrs Smith when she was ill last week, and she had bought a painting from Ana... Yes I'll accept this for an afternoon of landscaping."  And it continues.

I am interested in a medium of exchange created from "tracking pixels" currently used in shipping and advertising.  Any work or trade can be entered into a database and encrypted becoming part of the record of that currency that cannot be forged any more than breaking into a Bank of America's system.  And why forge a history?  Takes too much time.  These can be on phone Passbooks or paper as they would be scanned every time they were used.  Some would have more value than others-- essentially e-denominations.

Such a system would be much easier to program and implement than setting up a bank and credit card system.  Even Nobel Prize and Congressional Medal of Honor winner Muhammed Yunus famous for microcredit could not muster starting a bank in America.  The only fix is innovation.


*Some background regarding how the current system inherently absconds from innovators and laborers.
