Coins are the best system, but I have no idea how we'd make it work 🤔

In a subsistence and agriculturally based community, trade and barter is always an option.

Exchange what you make for what your neighbors make

silver makes more sense then gold because of spot price per ounce. Plus, if we go to oregon there is a chance of us finding silver or gold on the property. https://www.jmbullion.com/silver/silver-rounds/1-oz-silver-rounds/ the nice thing about a currency is that it works as a medium of exchange if you need something but nobody wants your stuff.

Yea, 1/10 oz silver coin is under $3 so it's small enough for every day trades. We might even be able to use copper as it's just $1 per oz
but silver will never be cheaper for us to extract than to just buy

Probably easiest to just make silver coins, each having their own weight

Rather than having to weigh silver every time, or check to see if it's real shit

I've been reading about gold mining in oregon and it looks like people still find surface level gold in riverbeds. http://raregoldnuggets.com/blog/?p=3648 http://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/index.ssf/2012/04/no_gold_rush_in_oregon_even_wi.html

buying copper should be done in bulk.

I got a gold pan in my garage, I've been wanting to try it out

i can't fucking wait until we get a property to work off of

a couple acres maybe

It is illegal to mint your own currencty so precious metals/ barter would probably have to work.

we could use crypto for minimal export/import keepng us totally off of fiat.

I seriously recommend anyone to read Plato's republic . It has some excellent advice on town building. Plus you can learn where our culture when wrong through its influence as well without being a total reactionary. .

@skyon what about a crypto backed by real world metal reserves? could we make our own bitcoin like currenecy and use it as an in between for community trade?

crypto is a good idea if it ever becomes stable

not bitcoin though. Anybody remember when they used be under $100 a coin?

pepperidge farm remembers

Thanks for the painful reminder lol

yeah you cant use use a currency that could lose 10% of its value right after you sold something for it

I see that a few of the members in this server are in programing or related fields, could one of you take a look at this article and see if it's possible to make our own crypto. https://www.fastcompany.com/3025700/how-to-create-your-own-cryptocurrency
