Money

As soon as we take money into our hands, ... we stimulate a direct exchange transaction. In contrast to a gift, energy or energy substitutes flow in both directions in an exchange. In the case of a gift, it is assumed that the energy flows directly and without further ado in one direction. The gift is therefore by definition not sustainable, as nothing comes back. If something comes back, it is by definition no longer a gift but an exchange or can be a triangular transaction.

 If we take state money into our hands, we are subject to the rules that the state has set up for barter. 

The following subpages contain information that can be used as a proof of work for a private means of payment. Anyone can set up such a page and use further IT tools to exchange information with their business partners as to whether they are capable of providing the promised services. 

Every exchange is subject to the rules of the economic environment in which it takes place. An additional medium of exchange is not intended to replace the exchange itself or the necessary taxes and duties, but rather to complement them. Especially when the current economic situation cannot provide the necessary money.
