DOMUN: A Proposed New Currency to Redesign Trust, Institutions, and Society Published : April 1, 2025 Updated : April 10, 2025 Tags : Future Table of Contents ▼ Introduction: Currency as a Mirror of Society and a Starting Point for Designing Future Systems The Essence of Currency and its Modern Challenges The Domun Concept — A City-Federation Currency Infrastructure Based on Trust and Contribution What are the "Three Functions of a Trustworthy Currency" Realized by Domun? A Currency Model Where Trust Circulates 1. Store of Value — Long-term Stability through a Dual Substantive Foundation 2. Medium of Exchange — Structured Trust and Institutional Incentives 3. Unit of Account — Adaptive Evaluation Axis via an Updateable System Urban Federation and Institutional Design of Currency Value — Stability and Legitimacy What is the Three-Layer Token Model (Core / Zones / Cities)? — Institutional Design for Circulating Diverse Contributions and Trust Limitations of Existing Single Currencies Three-Layer Token Model (Core / Zones / Cities) Core: The Axis of Value Preservation and Institutional Trust Zones: The Core Layer Mediating Institutional Evolution and Collaboration Cities: The Front Line of Contribution, Starting Point for Institutional Experimentation Optimal Placement of Institutions, Currency, and Trust Achieved by the Three Layers Concrete Examples of Institution-Economy Connection Issuance and Value Stability: Domun's Circulation Rules How Are Exchange Rates Determined? — Structural Trust Design by Score Dual Score Design: Institutional Health × City Potential Design Where Institutional Score Translates to Economic Reward Complementary Layers: Connecting PoCT / SBT and Institutional Infrastructure Two Institutional Tokens in Domun: Redesigning Redistribution: Reframing Currency as a "Circulation Device" Currency Structure Comparison: How is Domun Different? Domun's Three Roles — A Layered Structure of Contribution, Currency, and Connection 1. Inner Layer: Evaluation & Institutional Infrastructure (PoCT / SBT) 2. Middle Layer: Domun Core — The Core as Stable Currency 3. Outer Layer: Connection Layer — Bridge to Other Currencies & External Economies Strength of Structure: Stability through Separation, Evolution through Collaboration Supplement: Relationship with the Three-Layer Token Model And, Towards the "Design Backstage" that Drives Institutions Technical Foundation: Design Philosophy and Structure Supporting Domun Domun's Implementation Structure — Towards a Distributed, Transparent, Evolvable Currency Infrastructure 1. Technological Foundation: Technical Design Supporting Structural Trust and Stability 2. Evolvable Institutional Strategy: Towards Agilely Updateable Social Infrastructure PoCT / Domun Core / SBT — Positioning and Connection of the Three Use Cases and Future Development — The Path to Implementation A. Contribution Evaluation/Distribution Model (PoCT) — Visualizing Achievements and Incentives B. Currency Use Model (Domun Core) — Foundation for Payments and Local Investment C. Institutional Trust Model (SBT) — Supporting Infrastructure for Proof of Participation and Fraud Prevention Implementation Steps Use Case Story: Rina's Month as an OSS Contributor Future Challenges – The Road to Realization Technological Hurdles Conclusion: Domun is the Gateway to a "Trust Economy" and Future Currency Infrastructure Future Structure: Towards a New Social Contract Starting from Cities Loading article…
