@vitaliibetin Allow me to go little crazy over here. Don't monetize it, create a new currency and replace the real currency with it. If basic premise of the idea is to promote kindness among population, let's imagine a world where kindness is more valued than money. Or at least as valued as money. Let's imagine a world where one does not need money to get… See more

@pradeep_io Wow! That's an interesting idea...I like it! Actually we do have chummy points now, they are called "thank you's" and for now they indicates how kind are you. We probably need to think about ability to exchange them on smth.

@agrizzlyadams @pradeep_io @vitaliibetin Yes but Simbi (and dozens of others before it) always run into probelms because as people start doing things specifically for "points", and wish to exchange and trade these 'points', the points eventually have a "real" value, and become currency. Having thousands of isolated forms of currency when we alread have the … See more
