<h2>Sarafu -Network Token</h2>
|
||
|
|
<ol>
|
||
|
|
<li>Sarafu infrastructure is supported by humanitarian orgs and allows anyone in Kenya to receive Sarafu tokens.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The more Sarafu circulates the more it builds resilient local economies and support vulnerable households.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Holding fees (in Sarafu) encourage users to spend their Sarafu. These fees then supply further funding for basic income in Sarafu.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Humanitarian orgs use Sarafu trade data to identify weak spots for capacity building.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Note that no Kenyan Shillings are exchanged for Sarafu</li>
|
||
|
|
</ol>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>The total Sarafu supply is ~16 Million and grows as people and groups join the network.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>In Kenya dial <strong>*384*96# (Safaricom) *483*46# (Airtel)</strong> to get your first 50 Sarafu and talk with our team +254-(0)757628885 to verify your information to get another 50 Sarafu.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Get more Sarafu weekly the more you connect to others. This acts like a basic income and there is no cost to join. The Sarafu for these weekly distributions as well as initial allotments are refilled from a holding fee of 2% of your Sarafu each month.</li>

<h2>Build your own Community Inclusion Currency (CIC)</h2>
|

|
|
<ol>
|

|
|
<li>A community identifies projects and productive capacity (goods and services) that will back their CIC which is a mutual credit for that community.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>A supply of such a CIC can be added to a community liquidity pool that connects it to other CICs or the whole Sarafu network.</li>

<h2>Next Steps</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>Based on results from research the Grassroots Economics team and partners are looking forward to the following:</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Next steps:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Develop the <a class="saf-link-style" href="https://gitlab.com/grassrootseconomics/cic-docs">blockchain contracts for the Sarafu token</a> with demurrage.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Enable communities to create their own interconnected tokens (no connection to Kenyan Shillings)</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Develop web-based non-custodial systems (wallets and token creation interfaces)</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Document and enable more interoperability with other protocols, APIs chat bots, market places</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Develop Voting systems for governance and tax (demurrage) redistribution</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Develop Standard Operating Procedures for humanitarian organizations.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Develop different reserve pools (network tokens (Sarafu), stable tokens, carbon credits).</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Develop parametric triggers for aid injection</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Develop an SDG Impact Index related to CIC transaction data (categories, gender .. )</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
