This is my tracker for notes while reading https://groups.google.com/g/network-money/c/iJ8p7dJZ4GA

We already talked about Federated LETS with Esteve / Komunitin last year, and I think it's definitely an important direction for Federated Bookkeeping.

I should also update https://michielbdejong.com/blog/21.html to mention it, especially since in historical perspective, https://creditcommons.net/assets/credit-commons.pdf was developed 2008-2016 so it predates LedgerLoops and Interledger in some important ways.

I love the statement about capitalism seeing "money as merchandise" in https://creditcommons.net/assets/credit-commons.pdf (page 5) and the distinction between "exchange rate" and "conversion rate" for currencies, emphasising that credit should not be treated as merchandise.

Credit Tree vs Credit Mesh is an important topic. Interledger and Credit Commons take a tree approach. LedgerLoops and Komunitin take a mesh approach.
