Badges help | Badges help Players create new methods of acknowledging and distributing rights, information and value. They give various rights, abilities, and rewards to Players who hold them. The design space for badges is expansive and SEEDS offers Players the tools needed to create and issue such badges. | ||

Accounts build their Contribution Score (and increase their Harvest) through transacting as opposed to being charged fees. So, not only are transactions free, but they are “better-than-free” because you can earn more Seeds for engaging in and supporting the Seeds marketplace. | Accounts build their Contribution Score (and increase their Harvest) through transacting as opposed to being charged fees.

Spaces for co-creating and co-learning about this new landscape and game. These spaces are designed to provide tiers of compensation to Players for taking an active role in researching, experimenting, movement building, knowledge sharing and more. Players earn badges and often direct compensation for participating and contributing to these spaces and those badges may offer various rewards and rights to the badgeholders.

An entity with no central leadership. Decisions | An entity with no central leadership. Decisions get made from the bottom-up, governed by a community organized around a specific set of rules enforced on a blockchain.

The term used to describe the minting process of generating new Seeds. At the same time, Bitcoin uses an energy-intensive “mining” process.

The process by which new Seeds are algorithmically created and distributed to the whole ecosystem. The Harvest produces the new Seeds that participants earn for contributing to SEEDS.

Where the people of SEEDS exchange their various currencies directly with each other as opposed to through centralized exchanges. I.e. Bob can trade Joe 100 USD for 100 Seeds by sending Joe 100 USD directly to his bank account.

Staked, locked away, similar to a “term deposit”. When Seeds are Planted, accounts restrict their access to them in exchange for a higher Contribution Score and increased bandwidth for transactions. This ensures that people who are using the network are financially committed to the network. | Staked, locked away, similar to a “term deposit”.

=Regenerative= | =Regenerative Design= | ||
A process-oriented whole systems approach to design. The term "regenerative" describes processes that restore, renew or revitalize their own sources of energy and materials. Regenerative design uses whole systems thinking to create resilient and equitable systems that integrate the needs of society with the integrity of nature. | |||

=Reputation Score= | =Reputation Score= | ||
Players total Reputation Points ranked on a scale of 0-99 amongst all other Residents and Citizens using a spline curve and given a relative multiplier of 0-2 (see Reputation Multiplier Curve Table). This means that if an account has a multiplier of 0, then it will earn no rewards - regardless of the other scores. Likewise, if an account has a multiplier of 2, it will earn double the rewards it would have if it maintained a multiplier of 1 (which is the mean). | |||

You “Sow Seeds” when you invite new people to join SEEDS by sending them Seeds. If they become Residents and Citizens, you earn more Seeds, which may be greater than the number of Seeds you sowed to invite them. In this way, it’s very much like sowing seeds - where some seeds may not sprout to bear fruit, while those that do return your seeds in greater abundance. By requiring people to send their Seeds to invite another person, you’re invested in that person becoming a Resident, and you’re limited in how many invites you can send. | You “Sow Seeds” when you invite new people to join SEEDS by sending them Seeds.

=Trust | |||
SEEDS decouples equity tokens and Trust (voice) tokens. In today’s dominant paradigm “money talks” and simply by virtue of having money, one could buy up a majority voice in any organisation. This is true of many crypto-projects as well. If we’re to build a system that can’t be co-opted or corrupted by our dominant paradigm, we cannot allow legacy value to buy governance in SEEDS. For this reason, Seeds are not what is counted when weighing voice, but rather the number of Trust Tokens an account has earned. Trust is earned through participation and contribution, where money committed is but one metric and not the whole story. | SEEDS decouples equity tokens and Trust (voice) tokens.
