Hey Dante, I wonder if I am being to myopic ...could you help me understand your (and the metacurrency) approach? Maybe I am looking at this wrong, but I don't understand what 'backs' these currencies, and also do not understand when or by whom they are issued. In the system I propose, the currency is backed by the Sources and Skills needed to produce *future* Objects. These tickets have a window of validity (they are not valid until some future time, and then expire after some further time based on the physical constraints of both production and storage). These tickets are 'issued' by groups of co-owners of the Physical Source (Material Means of Production) to individuals within that group as a way of accounting for whether (for example) each has picked-up their dozen eggs for the week. Thanks for your consideration.
