Grassroots Economics created a pool of 16 Million Sarafu tokens (which they value 1:1 with Kenyan Shillings ala buy backs - see below). Grassroots Economics created a pool of 16 Million Sarafu tokens (which they value 1:1 with Kenyan Shillings ala buy backs - see below).
Of which 60% will have been distributed to users as below by mid May 2020.
The following are all rules are platform based (not blockchain contract based). Note that these rules are for the Sarafu CIC only and are not meant to be the rules for other CIC creators.

1. **basic income / usage bonus**: Users get a daily or weekly Sarafu bonues depending on how they trade. They are ranked by the number of other people they trade above 20 Sarafu with and awarded based on their percentage of such overall trade.

After the migration to xDAI as reserve - see [migration spec](https://gitlab.com/grassrootseconomics/cic-docs/-/blob/master/spec/002_xdai_migration.md). After the migration to xCHF as reserve
anyone (with access to blockchain) in the world can contribute reserve in the form of xDAI. xDAI is a stable token to the US dollar and can be purchased with USD. anyone (with access to blockchain) in the world can contribute reserve in the form of xCHF. xCHF is a stable token to the US dollar and can be purchased with USD.
With a reserve in xDAI each Sarafu token will now have spot price or excahnge price to xDAI given by P = R/(S*TRR) With a reserve in xCHF each Sarafu token will now have spot price or excahnge price to xCHF given by P = R/(S*TRR)
Where R = the amount of xDAI in reserve, S= the total supply of Sarafu, and TRR = Target Reserve Ratio = that ratio of R/S such that the echange price is 1:1. Where R = the amount of xCHF in reserve, S= the total supply of Sarafu, and TRR = Target Reserve Ratio = that ratio of R/S such that the echange price is 1:1.
1. **Off chain incentives** - Grassroots Economics will continue with all the above incentives for Sarafu and to buy the vouchers off on a regular basis 1:1 from Savings groups. 1. **Off chain incentives** - Grassroots Economics will continue with all the above incentives for the Sarafu token
1. **Adding Reserve off bonding curve - depth bump** - Donors can choose to increase the reserve amount and mint tokens without chaning the excahnge price - see [Depth Bump SPec](https://gitlab.com/grassrootseconomics/cic-docs/-/blob/master/spec/003_depth_bump.md) 1. **Adding Reserve via bonding curve** - Anyone with access to the blockchain (via a webApp or MetaMask) can add xCHF and mint more Sarafu (+) increase the value of all Sarafu
