Imagine5 Real Bank and Real Money
Real Bank and Real Money
After the global collapse of fiat currencies and Bank runs that the fractional reserve banking could not handle there is a new hope: Real Money and Real Bank. The concept is very simple: The Dollar, the Euro, the Renminbi, the Ruppe . . . all currencies were disconnected from real assets, from reality and that´s why they collapsed. It got even worse when virtual currencies from games where exchanged for real objects. The energetic cost, the real impact every purchase has on a social and environmental levels was abstracted even further. Instead Real Money is based on real objects and real time. You work an hour = 1 Real Money Unit. I kilo of bananas = 1 Real Money Unit. Real Bank units can´t be printed unless there is a real tangible object or quantified hour of work. Simple. The Real Bank is Community Owned by the San Pedro Community.
This is what Real Money looks like.
Sure this is just the beginning and complexity will emerge pretty soon. So far a Doctors hour is worth exactly the same as a bus driver hour, but everyone seems fine with it for now. The future might be a different story. How many kilos of mango do you need to buy a laptop? 536. It can get complicated soon, so people are lookingn into this alternatives:
www.kiva.org seems very popular in San Pedro.

Local currencies really are on the rise ! I hope they turn out to be a sustainable system, more in tune with the real value of everyone's work.

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
public servants
The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
