about
Source is a social experiment that aims to free humanity of greed and create abundance for all by using smart contract blockchain technology to create a contribution-driven economy that rewards participants by issuing cryptocurrency and crypto assets such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs); allowing every unique skillset, regardless of physical state, to contribute to the ecosystem and earn source rewards.
No source tokens are pre-minted (in the same spirit as Bitcoin), rather, tokens are issued only as a reward for contribution. That includes zero tokens pre-issued to the visionaries behind source. All participants will need to "earn" tokens with the same opportunity that is available to any other participant. Source tokens can be earned by contributing code, computational resources, community-accepted value propositions, and other ways described below.

Our founder(s), Satamoto Nakoshi's (pseudonymous group) vision is a world of abundance that's free of greed. Inspired by the selfless contribution of Nakamoto's Bitcoin Whitepaper that paved the way for trustless peer-to-peer environments using encryption and mathematics, and inspired by the beauty found in nature.

Abstract. A decentralized peer-to-peer contribution-driven ecosystem maintained on a distributed ledger using a custom configuration of open source blockchain software. No tokens are pre-minted and all tokens must be earned by contribution. A worker proposal system guarantees work opportunity for every peer through various methods of contribution as established by existing and newly peer-reviewed and accepted worker proposals; allowing widespread economic prosperity to a society managed by a distributed trustless system of accountability and provable fairness. The network is maintained and governed by pseudonymous accounts tied to each unique peer identity, allowing for economic and political interaction free of manipulation and inefficiencies caused by the naturally occurring characteristic of greed in human nature.
