Encointer proposes a blockchain platform for local community\ncryptocurrencies. Individuals can claim a universal basic income through\nissuance of fresh money. Money supply is kept in proportion to population size\nthrough the use of demurrage. Sybil attacks are prevented by regular,\nconcurrent and randomized pseudonym key signing parties to obtain a\nproof-of-personhood. Encointer features privacy by design and purchasing-power\nadjusted transaction fees.\n
