I'll take your local currency in Canada! written by KingofthePaupers,
October 03, 2009
Jct: When the local currency is pegged to the Time Standard of Money (how many dollars per hour of volunteer labor, children too) Hours earned locally can be intertraded with other timebanks globally! In 1999, I paid for 39/40 nights in Europe with an IOU for a night back in Canada worth 5 Hours. You can too. U.N. Millennium Declaration UNILETS Resolution C6 to governments is for a time-based currency to restructure the global financial architecture. See http://youtube.com/kingofthepaupers on growth of the international time-trading network.
Jct: Sure I can figure out how many Brazilian units per hour and I'd bet most timebanks around the world will take their tokens too.

Gynarchial Letter Money written by Matthew Darr,
October 22, 2009
I have devised a letter currency that is non-denominational; (no numbers involved). It needs improved to be used as a local currency.If you wish to have a current copy of my templates to play with e-mail me at darr57@charter.net. Warning : You will need to obtain some type of government permission I believe to ever use this type of currency; wherever your government. It is an interesting alternative to wealth accumulating number based currencies however.
