The research is not abstract: it is carried out through [[Gov/en/Portal:Meta/Prototype-1|Prototype 1]], the first test version of WikiDeal, funded by a first CHF 1,000,000 round with defined [[Gov/en/Portal:Meta/Prototype-1-Deliverables|deliverables]], notably including the results of the [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Open-Call:Main#wave-2|wave 2 open calls]] and pilot use cases in selected markets.

Three mechanisms work together: (1) the [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:Bonding Curve|Bonding Curve]] creates a transparent, algorithmically defined relationship between subscriptions and reward potential: early funders receive a higher reward multiplier. (2) The [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Innovations:Need-Driven Funding|Need-Driven Funding]] amplifies the redistribution during the critical early phase. (3) [[Gov/en/Portal:R&D/Open-Call:Main|Open Calls]] let contributors bring not just money but also ideas, labor and expertise, and receive deferred rewards based on adoption and longevity.
