  • Digital Currency Evolution & What Lies Ahead
    Nov 7 2023

    In this podcast, Philip Rosedale discusses the concept of "fair share," a novel digital currency system designed to promote stability and equitable wealth distribution. Fair share aims to address economic inequality by adjusting the money supply and ensuring equal redistribution, with a focus on keeping wealth disparities in check. It utilizes a transaction tax and income tax to fund its basic income and recirculate money within the system. The necessity for such a system arises from disruptive changes in society, like AI, which can exacerbate wealth inequality. Fair share offers a proactive approach to create more equitable economic systems and aligns with the values of fairness, transparency, and community-based decision-making.

  • Economic Fairness Through Digital Currency
    Nov 7 2023

    In this podcast episode, Dan and Philip Rosedale explore the concept of "fair share," a digital currency system designed to combat economic inequality. Fair share seeks to prevent wealth concentration by distributing money equally and applying transaction fees to fund this distribution. It is akin to a Universal Basic Income (UBI) component. The discussion emphasizes the importance of fairness in human collaboration and the need for identity validation through groups. Fair share groups serve as a way to ensure identity while maintaining fairness, using secret voting. The ideal group size may vary, and the system allows direct voting on economic parameters, such as basic income and transaction tax rates, for self-regulation. Fair share offers a decentralized and community-controlled approach to economic policy and equality.

  • Redefining Digital Currency for Economic Fairness with Philip Rosedale
    Nov 7 2023

    In this podcast, Philip Rosedale, a digital economy pioneer, discusses the concept of "FairShare." It originates from his work on Second Life, where he developed a digital currency for trading within the virtual world. Unlike traditional cryptocurrencies, FairShare prioritizes stability over value appreciation.

    Rosedale addresses economic inequality in current systems, emphasizing how free markets often amplify it. FairShare aims to combat this by adjusting money supply and ensuring equal redistribution. It encourages money recirculation, striving for a fairer economic environment, both externally (evaluating wealth relative to contributions) and democratically (allowing users to reset the system).

    FairShare's decentralization is crucial to prevent manipulation by intermediaries. It relies on transaction fees to fund its basic income, ensuring economic fairness without external support.

    Overall, FairShare is a response to growing economic inequality, offering a mechanism for fairer digital-age economic systems.
