| + | ===== Topics: ===== | ||
| + | * What is 'money' | ||
| + | * How you can codify something that is currency | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Money as: ==== | ||
| + | * Unit of exchange | ||
| + | * Store of value | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Kinds / variables: ==== | ||
| + | * Token v Account based | ||
| + | * Uses of currency? Things like | ||
| + | * community currencies | ||
| + | * central bank | ||
| + | * Bank specific currency | ||
| + | * (e.g. Scotland) | ||
| + | * Are there other scenarios | ||
| + | * what is legal tender? | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Currency issuance questions ==== | ||
| + | * how does the monetary authority know how much of a given currency is in circulation? | ||
| + | * also applies to crypto | ||
| + | * Central Banks | ||
| + | * M1 M2 M3 issues | ||
| + | * Does this relate to Ledger v Token? e.g. one of the Ms is how much coin and note is in circulation | ||
| + | * See [[MoneySupplyIssues]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | How you codify - thinking about examples like cattle as currency, there is a distinction between: | ||
| + | * something you can use in exchange (unitized value, exchangeability) versus | ||
| + | * barter (simple exchange of things) | ||
| + | |||
| + | The first of those is something that could be used as money | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Backing ==== | ||
| + | See e.g. | ||
| + | List of gold-backed currencies: https://www.goldscape.net/gold-blog/gold-backed-cryptocurrency/ | ||

| + | ===== Discussions ===== | ||
| + | Page for discussion of some topics: [[Discussions]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | Use this for more open ended questions and comments. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Terms and Definitions ===== | ||
| + | We will be using the VCoI approach to this - see separate page(s): | ||
| + | |||
| + | [[Terminology]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | Covering these 3 things: | ||
| + | * Terms and Definitions | ||
| + | * Abbreviations and acronyms | ||
| + | * References | ||
| + | |||
| + | Start collecting some of the terms we need on those pages. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Where 'Context' in this case is this wiki (the FDTF as a whole) and the subsequent RFI | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== References ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | See also the [[References]] page. For now this is an informal place for references as we find them; we will introduce the VCoI process later. | ||
