The problem of "trust in the network" is the main obstacle to the emergence of a decentralized economy and virtual trust decentralized communities. Understanding this problem led to the following conclusions and results, which I would like to share with you, dear colleagues:

"Trust problems in the network" do not exist in principle since there is no such network where trust is possible. All so-called “social networks” are nothing more than communication platforms. An attempt to find a technological solution to protect a participant from deceiving another makes no sense, confirmed by numerous facts of fraudulent activities in the cryptocurrency community. Inventing cryptocurrencies to develop the p2p economy also makes no sense, for any currency is a tool that serves the original act of value exchange - that is, this is a consequence of the act, but not its cause. An effect cannot produce a cause.

Trust and mutual assistance exist as a part of empathic relations for everyone within the boundaries of the conditional circle of friends and relatives. However, the number of such bonds is limited by the Dunbar number. Accordingly, the trust relationship of any person is limited to a community of 150 people. However, the experimentally confirmed "theory of six handshakes" asserts the connection of everyone with everyone on the planet through a chain of 6 conditional "handshakes". At the same time, in the "line" of 6 handshakes, everyone sees the other two but not the entire chain.

The key to overcoming the limitations of trust and mutual assistance, which are currently confined within the boundaries of the Dunbar number, lies in formalizing existing empathic connections. By structuring these connections in a chain of 6 handshakes, we can create a mutually referential register with unlimited participants, where trust is inherently present.

The concept of Exodus 2.0, a unique approach to overcoming the limitations of trust and mutual assistance, is presented to your attention. It describes the principles and tools for the emergence of a decentralized trust registry with unlimited participants. This idea, a digital social innovation, has completed R&D and has working prototypes in the form of telegram bots.

The final product of Exodus 2.0 is envisioned as a smartphone application that uses the described user scenarios. The application's features include a lack of ownership (open source) and a central server. I invite everyone interested in implementing Exodus 2.0 to join us in this collaborative effort.

For any questions you may have about Exodus 2.0, I encourage you to use the Exodus 2.0 bot. It's a convenient and efficient way to get the information you need.
