Recursive Mutual Credit Protocol

Protocolo Monetário Descentralizado

A meta-protocol grammar for federating mutual credit networks recursively — enabling parent networks to compose child networks under shared rules while preserving each network's autonomy. The same protocol nests at multiple scales, with cross-network settlement through protocol-defined paths. Prototype: Credit Commons Protocol (Matthew Slater and Tim Jenkin).

Origens Solidarity economy finance; mutual credit federation research; cooperative banking traditions.
Formatos de Dados Account tree structures; transaction routing data; cross-ledger settlement records.
Termos Open protocol; reference implementation free to deploy.
Fundos Unknown — small-scale volunteer project.
Baseado Em Classical mutual credit theory; nested institutional analysis; Tim Jenkin's earlier work on CES (Community Exchange System).
Permissões Per-ledger governance; protocol rules for nesting between parent and child networks.
Contrato Inteligente No — reference implementation is off-chain; blockchain bindings possible.
Ferramentas de Desenvolvimento Credit Commons reference implementation; documentation.
Maturidade / Padronização do Protocolo Community Standard — published specification with reference implementation.
Estrutura de Confiança Inherits parent network's trust framework; protocol enforces nesting rules; bilateral trust at each network layer.
Domínio de Aplicação-Alvo Solidarity economy finance; cross-community mutual credit federation; cooperative economic networks.
Posição de Aceitação do Jogo Modify-Additive — designed to federate existing mutual credit networks alongside national currencies.
Regime de Acumulação Inherits parent — each network's accumulation regime preserved; protocol enforces zero-sum at each level.
Mecanismo de Coordenação Bounded-trust mutual at each node; recursive composition at protocol level.
Modelo de Emissão Inherits parent network — each child network issues per its own rules; protocol governs cross-network settlement.
Tipo de Sinal de Valor Inherits parent network's units; supports plural sub-units across federated networks.
Padrão de Federação Recursive — designed for arbitrary nesting; scales through composition.
Independência de Substrato Substrate-neutral.
