Imagining a $KERNEL community currency, built open-source and leveraged as an example for communities, creators, and ultimately — the billions of people not using cryptocurrency today.
 
  • Using a portion of the KERNEL Reserve ($15,000), mint 60,000 KERNEL — to be used in the context of the KERNEL Community.
    • Put the KERNEL Reserve under the control of a 'treasurer' from the KERNEL Community
  • The only potential purchasers of these tokens are KERNEL Fellows.
  • Tokens are purchased on a bonding curve, parameters set by community (options to be detailed, below)
 
 
Open Questions
  • (TBD) — what is the shape of the bonding curve?
  • Participate in the 'Common Reserve' underlying Grassroot Economics?
  • Legal / regulatory — how to think about this in a regulatory framework which makes sense?
    • Co-op? Tokens, shares.
    • 50 years of guidance on this token models. Not securities, but shares. Co-op membership rights model.
 
What are our exports?
  • Security Audits?
  • Tokens created within the ecosystem?
     
     
    Explicit Goals
    • Architecture re-used / $KERNEL tokens accepted in other communities.
    • Interoperability with related communities ($PAN, to begin)
    • Experimentation, with deep respect for the underlying relationships which underpin KERNEL. Nothing will be attempted here without high confidence it represents the values of KERNEL well.
