| A Ring of Trust is a formal agreement between two or more WikiDeal User Groups to accept each other's [[Gov/en/Portal:Economy/Miles-Credits|Miles Credits]] for services. Rings define the scope and conditions under which Miles Credits can be used — creating a functional complementary economy that grows organically as User Groups choose to cooperate.
| |
| | |
| A Ring of Trust is not imposed from above — it is created by User Groups who choose to cooperate, defining their own terms within the WikiDeal framework.
| |
| | |
| === What Is a Ring? ===
| |
| A Ring of Trust is:
| |
| | |
| * An agreement between '''two or more User Groups''' (the minimum is 2)
| |
| * A commitment to accept Miles Credits for services within the Ring's scope
| |
| * Governed by a usage coefficient that determines how widely the Ring's Miles are accepted
| |
| * Registered in the WikiDeal system for transparency and auditability
| |
| | |
| === Usage Coefficients: 1 to 10 ===
| |
| Each Ring operates with a usage coefficient that reflects how widely its Miles Credits are accepted:
| |
| | |
| * '''Coefficient 1''' — Restricted: Miles can only be used within the two founding User Groups
| |
| * '''Coefficient 5''' — Moderate: Miles accepted across a cluster of related User Groups
| |
| * '''Coefficient 10''' — Widely accepted: Miles can be used across many Rings and User Groups in the ecosystem
| |
| | |
| A higher coefficient is not automatically better — it means the Miles are more versatile but may be worth less per unit due to wider supply. User Groups choose their coefficient based on their community's needs.
| |
| | |
| === Miles Credits Interoperability ===
| |
| The key innovation of Rings is interoperability. Miles Credits earned in one User Group can be spent in another User Group — but only if both are in the same Ring. This creates:
| |
| | |
| * A network effect: more Rings → more useful Miles
| |
| * Community incentives: User Groups benefit from joining Rings with complementary services
| |
| * No forced participation: User Groups choose which Rings to join
| |
| | |
| === No Self-Generation of Miles ===
| |
| User Groups and individuals cannot create Miles Credits from nothing. The only exception is a small welcome amount granted to new members entering the ecosystem — enough to make a first Transaction and understand the system, not enough to distort it. This rule prevents inflation and ensures Miles remain tied to real contribution or funding.
| |
| | |
| === Examples of Rings ===
| |
| ==== 🍼🎓 Babysitting-Tutoring Ring ====
| |
| A babysitting User Group and a tutoring User Group agree to accept each other's Miles. A parent can earn Miles by offering babysitting services and spend them on tutoring for their child. A tutor can offer lessons and receive Miles usable for childcare.
| |
| | |
| ==== 🎪 Festival Services Ring ====
| |
| Multiple User Groups involved in festival organization (sound, catering, transport, security) form a Ring. Workers can earn Miles in one role and spend them in another, creating a self-sustaining festival economy that minimizes CHF exchanges.
| |
| | |
| === Rings and Programmes ===
| |
| Rings of Trust work alongside WikiDeal's [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Main|12 Programmes]]. Many programmes define natural Ring configurations — for example, the Shared Resources Programme facilitates Rings between User Groups sharing physical assets, and the Microcredit Programme enables Rings between lending and borrowing communities.
