Objectives

    Micro-payments for micro-work

    Card fees make it impossible to pay 6¢ for something. At $0.06 a gēēk, you can pay for exactly the minute of help you got, so small work is finally worth paying for.

    Micro-learning

    • A 5-minute explainer from an expert: ~35 gēēks
    • One answered question on Web4 Forum: bounty you set
    • Flashcard deck review session: 10–50 gēēks

    Micro-coding

    • Fix one bug or review one PR: 100–400 gēēks
    • One AI-assisted feature build via Cyazer: from 1 gēēk
    • Write a single test or regex: 20–80 gēēks

    Micro-tasks

    • Label 50 images: 15–30 gēēks
    • Proofread a page: 50–100 gēēks
    • Verify a listing or address: 5–20 gēēks

    The bigger objective: money made by people

    Gēēks are human-generated money. They aren't lent into existence against capital and resources. They're issued to people, 365 dē per verified human per year, and measured in the one thing we all share equally: time.

    Today's money is created as debt, so the system has to keep growing just to stay afloat. After roughly a century, that cycle is reaching its limit (see Economy). We believe money rooted in human time can carry us across to whatever comes next.

    How we get there

    Ironically, it starts with raising capital. We're seeking funding and partners to work alongside banks, central banks and governments: to earn trust one step at a time, until gēēks are recognized and accepted as a real part of the monetary system.

    What it makes possible

    • A bridge to a new monetary system: universal basic and high income (UBI/UHI) and universal services (UHS), paid in gēēks and dē.
    • An economy that keeps turning: everyone has enough to keep buying from businesses, so the economic cycle carries on.
    • Time for what matters: people shouldn't spend their lives on work they aren't passionate about. Gēēks free people to pursue humanitarian work, learning and community, even when there's no "business model" for it, not just labour that extracts capital.

    Micro-learning

    Learning happens in small, frequent pieces (see Mind). Pay a tutor, creator or AI session by the minute instead of buying a $300 course you won't finish.

    Micro-coding

    Break software into tasks small enough to price in gēēks: one bug, one test, one component. Developers and AI agents can pick them up, deliver, and settle the same day.

    Micro-tasks

    Small jobs that are never worth an invoice, like checking, labelling, translating or proofreading, get paid fairly and instantly, priced in the time they take. See Time.
