Before someone hit the BAN button, consider this: I was in a meetup about basic income and crypto currencies that follow that path, and we got to a very interesting point. Money has three caracteristics: 1- It is a store of value against time 2- It is a counting system 3- It is a mean of exchange. So, Bitcoin, a bit like gold, is a great store of value (1), but it is poor in the points 2 and 3 (for several reasons, some do not have to do with bitcoin itself but to its acceptance in the market as money). Euros and dollars try to tackle all the three, but side effec

Hi @magius, thank you a lot that is exactly what is needed to test the currency in principle. How is it possible to have a scale of 60,000 000 with only 100? And what should i verify from the Facebook page? Thank you!

We will try to experiment with Solidar on a "little" scale. We started to inform people of our italian network about it. The UBI subscriptions iin this week will be about 100 from Italy, that's a scale of about 60,000,000 people (please @Rik8119 may you verify from the Solidar Facebook page?). In the middle of 2018 we hope the scale will be littler, on an italian municipality and surrounds, about 600,000 people.

We could use facebook marketplace. Prices are in fiat currencies but cause is possible to send messages (through Messenger) to goods and service owners, it's possible to pay in solidar them through a message!

Hi, i had asked @Bicknellski with his students if he and his students may want to experiment with it, but he said that they are not using Facebook, so in principle this is a great idea if you/anyone knows somewhere to start i'm with it..

I've been thinking about a small scale real-world trial. Something like an economicaly active but still strugling vilage, or a small university campus that people can find their own use for Solidar. Let's let the tread open and see if someone comes with a good opportunity in the nearby future!

Absolutely not, i also think that donations for free musik/videos/e-learning/open source software/activists(like wikileaks) is a HUGE use case that can and should not be underestimated. As Solidar is comming for free everybody has the possibility to "vote" for the favorite free work that she/he wants to support. For that the idea was to organize some internetpage that will list all organizations/artists that will support solidar donations.
