Tab System
Dual Currency Architecture
A platform currency system comprising:
- Credits: Purchased currency for backing projects
- MARKS: Earned currency for work completion
- Separate ledgers with controlled conversion
- Legal compliance (credits = reward points, not securities)
- Tab accumulation for deferred payment with interest
Why This Matters
The Tab System solves the “chicken and egg” problem of platform economies. New users can participate immediately through earned MARKS, while Credits provide the stable value anchor that makes the whole system work.
No one is excluded because they don’t have money to start.
