EXODUS
decentralized social network



2021
Method and tools for self-organization in a decentralized social network of mutual trust.


Stage: R&D completed with working prototypes for further development.

The basis of social networks of trust is the mutual benefit fund,
organized by decentralized software.

The decentralized mutual benefit fund is a list of participants united by
personal mutual voluntary intentions "smart contracts" into a reference list.
Since the goal is to cover the damage of one by many, the principle "a friend of my friend is my friend" is used with the help of the telegram bot "Arvut Adadit".

When an "insurable event" occurs, the telegram bot Exodus is used.
The bot operates with two records "intention" and "obligation" which allows
organizing mutual settlements between the participants of the reference list.
A self-regulatory process weeds out inactive participants,
and those who remain earn a reputation.

The emerging community based on mutual reference and reputation is a decentralized social network of mutual trust - the basis for the development of effective cooperation, confidence in the future, and prosperity.

Mass self-organization requires a convenient tool based on existing developments, scenarios for its use, and dissemination of information on the network.

The condition for the development of innovation is the lack of ownership and advantage between the participants.

All materials and software developments are free for copying, modification, distribution as an open-source product.
Two steps to decentralized social network
Formation of a reference list
telegram - bot @ArvutAddBot allows you to formalize the existing relationship of readiness for mutual assistance, forming a reference trust list - the basis of a decentralized mutual benefit fund.

Description

Formation of a reference list

The basis for the manifestation of a trust reference list is the well-known principle of "mutual guarantee" (Arvut Adadit, Heb.), Which has been effectively used for centuries in Jewish communities.

"Arvut" is formed from the verb "learev" - "to mix", "to knead", "to intervene". "Adadit" - "bilateral, mutual (responsibility)". It turns out that "arvut adadit" is a mutual "interference" with each other.

To create a list, you just need to formalize the existing relationship of readiness for mutual assistance.

This is done by the direct mailing of a personal invitation: "I am ready to help you, if necessary, with a conditional amount of 100 euros and I look forward to reciprocity."
When the invitation is accepted, the participant is included in the trust list as a personally confirmed mutual agreement.
The list is automatically replenished according to the principle and grows exponentially, increasing the general pool of intentions, and therefore the capabilities of everyone.

For example, if there are 10,000 participants in the list, then the size of the "pool" will be 1,000,000 euros.
This is, in fact, a potentially declared resource of the trust reference list for solving common urgent problems: mutual assistance, social initiatives, and direct cooperation.

And the maximum number of participants in the "me - my friend - friend of my friend" list is 150 (Dunbar's number) cube = 3.375.000 with a resource of 375.500.000 euros distributed decentralized.

All communications and interactions of the list members take place outside the bot.
The bot is not a payment or settlement instrument.
The bot code and its description do not have ownership and are in the public domain for free copying,
The creation of a list is a necessary but not sufficient condition for the emergence of a decentralized network.

The modern counterpart to this social phenomenon is China's Mutual Aid Platforms, a cheap alternative to health insurance. These platforms bring together millions of people and are currently being destroyed by the Chinese authorities concerned about this massive form of self-organization.

Formation of a decentralized social network.
When an event occurs in the trust list that is relevant for the participants (for example, an accident), a self-regulating process arises in which inactive participants in the list are eliminated.

The organization of interaction between participants in the event of "emergency assistance" and "regular support" is implemented in the @exodus_commitbot
telegram bot.
Video illustration
There are two types of records "intent" and "commitment" recorded in the bot.
The intention can be edited or withdrawn at any time.
The commitment cannot be withdrawn and must be performed.
The fulfillment of the commitment is made in any legal way by agreement of the parties. Confirmation is a mark on the fulfillment of the commitment by those in whose favor it was recorded.
The program allows you to organize the activities of participants in cases of emergency assistance, regular support for those in need, and "voting intentions" (in fact, decentralized crowdfunding).


Social ingineering
"voting by the record of intent" - crowdfunding of participants' initiatives
Any initiative of a participant in a decentralized social network that has an implementation price is proposed for discussion and voting by "intentions", which simultaneously determines the relevance and provides resources for the implementation of the initiative.
After the participants have confirmed the relevance by voting (having typed the required number of intentions), the voted participants interact by organizing the process with any existing project management tools.

Summary

  • Risk insurance
    The Chinese experience of self-organization of "people's health insurance funds" has shown unique results, for example, a participant in one of the largest platforms (80 million people) could count on coverage of $ 60,000 for 15 cents a year. At the same time, the model was centralized and had an owner, therefore, all costs in a decentralized network are freed up in favor of all participants.
  • Direct non-arbitration cooperation
    A decentralized social network allows participants to interact directly, without arbitration, finding mutually beneficial solutions in the exchange of goods and services.

  • Social engineering
    Any initiative of a participant that has an implementation price is proposed for discussion and voting by "intentions", which simultaneously determines the relevance and provides resources for the implementation of the initiative.

    After the participants have confirmed the relevance by voting (by typing the required amount), the participants who voted interact, organizing the process with any existing project management tools. The effectiveness of interaction in agreement, when everyone is interested in achieving a common goal, is qualitatively different in terms of the speed of processes and the resulting costs.
    This allows us to solve common problems - from garbage disposal to global environmental problems.
say we are all connected by six handshakes ...

all that remains is to formalize it.....
otherwise everyone is fucked globally.......
