Good comment.

I have never seen it called UBP, but am guessing you mean everyone has a value just for existing and interacting with the system. This is what the VRENAR project is about, directly and automatically generating a crypto-currency reward for every act of approval or disapproval (effectively votes).

Our existing world was created by our votes, which are just expressions of our will. There is no more powerful will than that of everyone put together.

With contractual software also automatically designed directly from people’s votes, law and order itself can be completely be re-defined from the ground up, by the people as designers, just by expressing their likes and dislikes.

Currently, everyone devotes their time, attention, and data, i.e. their value, to privately owned profit-seeking social media, who then harvest and hoard that value.

This will turn around when a critical mass of people realise that they have the power to instead harvest their own value, and keep it for themselves. All they need to do is identify the right project to put their faith in, and it will happen, very fast.

Of course I believe the right project is VRENAR. But I will be more than happy to see, and to join any other project that does it first, because the end result will be the same.

My background and experience just leads me to think that the best place to start is with VRENAR.

At the end of the day, there is no such thing as competition amongst non-profit, or even anti-profit projects, only collaboration. Ultimately, everyone will pull together.
