Description
Technology Alternative to Money for Enabling Equitable Trade
In the United States, this application is a uation-in-part (claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C 120) of
international patent application number filed on November 11, 2011 designating
the United States, and also claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. 119 (e) of United States provisional patent
application number 61588419 filed on y 19, 2012 and United States provisional patent application
number 61646387 filed on May 14, 2012, each of which is incorporated by reference herein.
The present invention relates to technology, alternative to money, for enabling users to engage in
equitable trade. The logy embodies chiralkine money and chiralkine property rights created as
vectors through chiralkine contracts made by users in a trading pair and a recorder that maintains an open
register.
It appears that life evolved in jumps, like the course of tion. One major jump is hypothesised to
have been the change from a -stranded (symmetric) RNA world to a double-stranded
(antisymmetric) DNA world. In the recent history of mankind, there has been huge innovation in many
areas, from electronics to ence. However, the monetary systems of the world have remained largely
unchanged for thousands of years. Value is deemed embodied in a single token (money) that can be
exchanged in return for goods or services. The ry system is like an RNA world. So central to our
worldview has money become that people tend to believe it is a real thing. It is not. It is a purely
intellectual (or legal) uct, like intellectual property, embodied in technology. Money is technology
embodying a vector representing an unfulfilled part of a contract.
The classical Newtonian model accords with our everyday experience of life, but close observation by
scientists revealed anomalies that cannot be explained by the classical laws of physics. This led to the
creation of new theories, including quantum theory with its concepts of symmetric and antisymmetric
wave functions, and the theory of relativity. These theories accounted for the anomalies, and spurred
technical tion in many fields. As will become apparent from an understanding of the present
invention, the vector-based atics behind these theories also has a highly unexpected application in
the fields of monetary s and the law of property rights.
It does not take the trained mind of a highly d scientist to recognise that the ry systems of the
world do not behave in a predicable manner. There are many competing ideas for addressing this, but all
are based upon the belief that a workable system can be found based upon money in its current form.
There is always someone else to blame when things go wrong. All of the proposed ons: better
regulation of the banks, reduced budget ts, increased government spending and alternative
currencies involve using the same kind of monetary system.

Presently unemployment, particularly amongst the young, is dangerously high. Nationalist cies,
which strengthen during financial depressions, are starting to create tensions the like of which we have
not seen for generations. Too many people are becoming nected from the monetary system,
because you need money to live, and you need a job to get money.
The website http://www.transaction.net/money/ provides a summary of the known kinds of money It
defines money as an agreement within a community to use something as a medium of exchange.
Monetary systems are used in industry to couple the steps of production. ry could not function
without a monetary system. They comprise technical components used as physical representations of
money, for example beads, shells, tallies such as tally sticks, tokens (such as coins or paper nts
such as banknotes, bills of exchange or accounts) and electronic records such as digital coins (for example
BITCOIN) or electronic bank accounts.
Money is a medium for the exchange of goods and services between people (P2P). Each time goods or
es (G) are provided by one person (P) to another (P), money (M) is provided in return.
G →
P ↔ P
← M
To an impartial observer, each step appears to be the same, and thus goods and services appear to move in
cycles in counter-current to money.
G → G P ↔ P M ← M
↑ ↓ ↨ ↨ ↓ ↑
G ← G P ↔ P M → M
Each person, r, has a sense of identity: of self. Each of you (the ) and I (the writer) thinks of
ves as “me” and the other of us as “you”. As Descartes put it “I think, therefore I am”.
Consequently, it appears to every person that the exchange process comprises two distinct steps: sale (for
money) and purchase (with money).
G →
Step 1 Me You Sale by P1 (here “me”)
← M
← G
Step 2 Me You Purchase by P1
M →
The “you” in step 1 can be the same (P2) or different (P3) to the “you” in step 2. If the two are the same,
there is actually a simple exchange of goods or services, as in barter.
The sense of identity of each person also gives rise to a sense of property hip. P1 would describe
goods in his or her sion as “mine not yours”, and those in the sion of P2 as “yours not mine”.
When goods or services change hands between two people for money, their status changes from “mine
not yours” to “yours not mine” from the ctive of one of the two people, and from “yours not mine”
to “mine not yours” from the perspective of the other.
In common parlance, the words “not yours” and “not mine” are dropped, so that people speak simply of
“mine” and “yours”. However, each of the terms “mine” and “yours” excludes the other, unlike in the
cases of the terms “everybody’s” (belongs to everyone) and “nobody’s”, (belongs to no-one) where there
is no implied “not”. ing that belongs to everyone belongs to me, to you and to everyone else.
Something that belongs to nobody does not belong to me, to you or to anyone else.
Everybody’s
Mine not yours Yours not mine
Nobody’s
The terms “everybody’s” and “nobody’s” are symmetric opposites. There is nothing to distinguish one
person from any other. The terms “mine not yours” and “yours not mine” are antisymmetric opposites.
The people are distinguished one from another: they each have an identity. The word “not” is
teristic of an mmetric relationship. If people did not have a sense of ty, then trade in
goods and services would appear to be a symmetric process: there would be no distinction between “sale”
and “purchase”. People are familiar with antisymmetric relationships, but are very unfamiliar with the
concept of antisymmetry. For example, people are familiar with the positive and negative terminals of a
battery. The positive terminal is “positive not negative”, and the negative terminal is “negative not
positive”. Positive and negative s attract one another, but each repels its own kind. The poles of a
magnet behave similarly. Antisymmetry is intimately related to handedness, which is a fundamental
ry of . Right and left hands are antisymmetric opposites. You can imagine turning a left
hand into a right hand by rotating it through 180 degrees and then reflecting it in mirror (looking at it in a
mirror).
Rotate Reflect
Left (nails up) → Left (nails down) → Right (nails up)
Money is used to effect transitions between “mine not yours” and “yours not mine”, not n
“everybody’s” and “nobody’s” or between “mine not yours” or “yours not mine” and “everybody’s” or
“nobody’s”. It is thus used to effect transitions between antisymmetric opposite states, as in switching
from a left hand to a right hand by rotation and reflection. There is a hidden handedness about money.
Note for future reference that a left hand is not a negative right hand. You cannot make a left hand by
subtracting a right hand.
Thus, money is a medium for facilitating the exchange of goods or services between people. It moves in
counter-current (in the opposite direction) to the flow of goods or es. The sense of ty in each
person gives rise to a perception that there are two distinct steps in the exchange process: purchase and
sale. This perception has its roots in handedness or chirality, a fundamental symmetry of nature. Money is
thus concerned with chirality (from the Greek – χειρο for hand) and kinetics (from the Greek kinesi:
κίνησις for movement). This invention is based upon a new kind of money: “chiralkine” money, the name
of which has its origins in the Greek words for hand and movement.
Money does not arise spontaneously. It is not induced by the movement of goods or services. It has to be
created. The creation and use of money are independent ses. As will be explained below, ion
of the two processes, caused primarily by banks acting as intermediaries, is an underlying cause for the
instability of the current monetary system, manifested by asset price bubbles, trade-imbalances and
g inequality.
To understand the creation of money, imagine that one person wishes to buy goods or services from
another, but has no money. If the vendor trusts the purchaser, he/she can provide the goods or services on
condition that the ser pays for these at a future date. The vendor is said to provide the purchaser
with credit. As a token formalising the ent between the two people, the purchaser may provide an
IOU (I owe you).
An IOU is not money, because it is not recognised by other people as imposing any right or obligation on
them. For an IOU to become money, the original vendor, purchaser and everyone else who wishes to use
the IOU as the money needs to recognise it as being exchangeable for goods or services. If such an IOU
were to be so recognised, it could circulate through a trading community until ally the original
purchaser receives it in exchange for some goods or services that he or she has provided. At that point, the
IOU is redeemed. Note that for an IOU to become money, all members of a trading ity must
accept that it matters to them that goods or services are conditionally being transferred from one member
of the community (the original vendor) to another (the original purchaser). What would normally appear
to other members of a trading community to be a symmetric situation (where it does not matter who has
the goods or services) s viewed as an antisymmetric situation (where it does matter). Thus, for an
IOU arising out of a private contract n two people to become money, all members of a trading
community must ise that they all have an interest in the mance (completion) of the contract.
The creation of money has its origins in a special form of contract between two people engaged in trade,
which contract gives rise to rights and obligations affecting all members of a trading community. It is as if
the two , the original vendor and purchaser, create a law binding on everyone.
One way for money to become law is for the State to enact it. When a state decrees that something will be
accepted as payment of taxes, it becomes money. atively, members of a trading community can
choose to recognise IOUs as money without the force of the law (of the State). Many such communities
e in this way, for example using mutual credit systems.
The drawing of a distinction between purchase and sale quent on the belief in the self being distinct
from other) has given rise to a convention for accounting for transactions: double entry bookkeeping. This
is used as a basis for mutual credit systems, for example the LETS system of mutual credit, associated
with Michael Linton.
In double entry bookkeeping, the transfer of money can be treated as a debit for the purchaser and a credit
for the vendor.
G →
Vendor ↔ Purchaser
← M
Step 1: debit M from purchaser t
Step 2: credit M to vendor account.
A debit is d as equivalent to a negative . Thus the sum of a debit and a credit is zero:
debit + debit = 2 debits debit – debit = 0
credit + credit = 2 credits credit – credit = 0
credit + debit = 0
This system of accounting works extremely well for accounting for ers of money in the course of
trade (exchange of money for goods and services, and works perfectly satisfactorily for small scale
mutual credit systems, such as LETS. However, it does not work on a large scale for the creation of
money. The problem comes when double entry bookkeeping is used to account for the creation of money.
It does not work! With the creation of money, debit + credit ≠ 0! A left hand is not a ve right hand.
Bartering organisations, including web-based bartering organisations based upon money created by the
users are known. See for example, US 7,702,540 assigned to eBay Inc. Examples include not-for-profit
mutual credit systems and cial systems. Two users can agree that one will barter some goods or
service in return for created money (which may be in units of favours). The problem with this is that two
users entering into a bartering transaction will not be trusted by everyone else to create money of the
t value. The money cannot be used as a means of exchange between all people in a bartering
organisation.
There has been speculation over whether E-barter might one day obviate the need for fiat money (see F.
H. Capie, Dimitrios P. Tsomocos and Geoffrey E. Wood, Bank of England Working Paper No. 197, 2003
ble from Publications Group, Bank of England, Threadneedle Street, London, EC2R 8AH). The
s de that fiat money is superior transaction technology to electronic barter.
In 1100 AD, King Henry 1 of England, faced with an acute shortage of coins, introduced what is known
as the split tally stick system. This system was used in Europe for over 700 years, when it was replaced
with fiat money. In this system, a person could provide goods to another in return for a promise of future
repayment. The value of the promise was recorded as notches cut on a stick, usually of hazel wood. The
stick was then split in two, one half being retained by each party to the transaction. It was ely
difficult to commit fraud with this system, because the grain of the wood on a genuine half stick would
not match up with that on a counterfeit half stick. The half stick retained by the creditor was known as the
stock (from which the term “stocks and shares” is derived), and that retained by the debtor the foil. The
foil was often cut shorter than the stock, (hence the origin of the term “to get the short end of the stick”).
The King ed that taxes be paid in tally sticks. Hence these sticks began to be used as money. A
major advantage of the split tally system was that it avoided the need for moneylenders and banks (which
charge interest for loans) and ensured that the value of money is based upon the production of the .
International patent application number filed on November 11, 2011 (Armistice
Day) recognises that the conventional wisdom that money is symmetric is flawed. The function of money
is antisymmetric. The application proposes a new monetary system, based upon left- and right-handed
money and left- and right-handed property rights. The idea of replacing each of the something that is
money and the something that is an hip right with two opposite things represents a gm shift.
The present invention builds on the concept of left- and right handed money. It provides a means by
which the unemployed and disadvantaged, indeed anyone, can create left- and right-handed money by
going t something for the benefit of another in a ing transaction, which money can be trusted
by others. No bank loan is needed. People all over the world can do things for one another and create
capital to start new businesses without having to borrow fiat money. Banks are no longer needed. The
widening inequality in wealth is arrested.
According to one aspect therefore, the present invention provides a web-based system for a bartering
organisation and users thereof, which comprises:
(a) means for creating user agreements between said bartering organisation and said users;
(b) means for implementing user agreements between said bartering organisation and said
users, comprising:
(i) means for representing chiralkine money;
(ii) means for representing and operating user accounts in chiralkine
money;
(iii) means for representing monopole property ;
(iv) means for representing chiralkine property rights;
(v) a web-based bartering market for creating barter ction agreements between users
for monopole property rights or chiralkine property rights in chiralkine money;
(vi) means for creating credit agreements between said bartering organisation and users
subject to a barter transaction agreement;
(vii) means for enting said barter transaction agreements; and
(viii) means for implementing said credit ents, including means for creating chiralkine
money, means for creating chiralkine ty rights when said chiralkine money is created; means for
destroying chiralkine money, and means for collapsing chiralkine property rights into monopole property
rights when said chiralkine money is yed.
A key feature of the present invention is that it enables right- and left-handed kine money to be
created for those that most need it, which can be trusted like money based on gold by all users of the
invention. The value ented by the right- and left-handed chiralkine money is based upon the motive
force of two people to complete a barter that began by one person going without for the benefit of the
other and can be calibrated against a web-based market that determines prices for barters.
It will be appreciated that the present invention is not a method by which one person can earn money
from r through trade (a business method), but a technology-based system useful in industry, to
couple together the steps of production. Not to recognise this in law would be to privilege the private
interests of the financial services industry engaged in the exploitation of the present monetary systems
over the interests of the public to be able to engage in equitable trade using a system that can (with
investment) be developed as an alternative to the present monetary systems.
As will become apparent from gaining an understanding of the invention, chiralkine money provides the
basis for a new monetary and property rights system that addresses the problems of trade imbalances,
asset price bubbles, sovereign budget deficits and lity ated with current monetary systems. It
builds on the strengths of the split tally stick system used successfully in Europe for hundreds of years. It
consists of two mirror forms that are created temporarily by contract by two people wishing to initiate
trade, travel through a trading community propagating trades and then mutually cancel at the completion
of the contract, when each of the two people has both provided and received some trade or service. The
contract is at once between the two people each to the other and also between the pair (as a whole) and
the trading community, thus supporting the potency of the created money throughout its lifetime. The
distinct steps of tion, propagation and termination cleanly separate the creation and tion of
money from use of money into independent processes, and hold all those responsible for creating money
to account. The steps thus address a fundamental flaw in current ry s, where the creation of
money by commercial and central banks is ed by its use, and those sible for creating money
can escape accountability. Unlike conventional money, chiralkine money is not a store of value, nor can it
be used to pay off debt. It is a pair of s that facilitates equitable trade. It requires no banks, involves
no interest payments and can readily be adapted for taxation to support public services. It can be
introduced as a complementary cy alongside conventional money without disturbing existing
property rights. Each of its mirror forms can be made exchangeable at fixed or floating exchange rates
with conventional currencies, thus enabling ation of chiralkine money with existing monetary
systems and also providing a mechanism for closing down a chiralkine system should this become
necessary. The system is particularly adapted for deployment on an electronic rm. Mutual credit
systems such as LETS can readily be converted into chiralkine systems. Moreover, because it identifies
both parties to any transaction, it is very secure, and thus resistant to abuse through fraud or moneylaundering.

Barter: ble trade in goods or services using chiralkine money.
Bartering organisation: an (equitable trade) organisation that enables users to enter into and complete
bartering transactions with one another. The bartering sation can be a not-for-profit sation
(i.e. wholly chiralkine based) or a for profit organisation (i.e. from which profits in monopole money can
be d). Several or indeed many ing sations can co-exist, each using their own chiralkine
money. A bartering organisation can be established and operate in just one state or internationally. It
could form the basis for the economy of an entire state. A ing organisation is like a bank in the
sense that it maintains accounts in chiralkine money for users, but is unlike a bank in that it requires
ctions from two users, one for each of the two forms of kine money, in order to effect
simultaneous changes in the accounts of both users. It is a recorder: a keeper of a register, not a safe
repository for a store of value belonging to a user.
User: a person who uses the bartering organisation to barter for goods or services. A user can be any
person, including a legal person such as a chiralkine corporation, a registered charity, a governmental
body, an international organisation or a state. Two or more persons, such as d and wife, can jointly
be a user. In one embodiment, the users comprise professional sports clubs engaged in the barter of player
contracts.
Means as in “means for”: technology for producing a technical effect, as opposed to a human mind for
performing a mental act. Each feature of the invention requires technology to embody it, just as
conventional money requires technology to embody it, be this beads, shells, coins or electronic s.
Chiralkine money: left and/or right handed money. Chiralkine money is not a store of value like
monopole money, but a pair of vectors representing the unfulfilled parts of a chiralkine contract.
User account: an account maintained by the bartering organisation that contains a record of the
chiralkine money belonging to a user (left and/or right-handed).
Monopole property right: a property right that has no left- and right-handed forms.
Chiralkine property right: a left and/or right handed property right.
Credit agreement: also known as a chiralkine contract. A contract between in one part of the contract,
the two members of a pair of people each to the other who create chiralkine money, and in r part of
the contract, between a bartering organisation and the pair of people as a whole indivisible unit. It is a
contract through which ry is broken. It will be appreciated that the term “credit” is not being
given its ordinary meaning in this patent specification. One party does not advance credit (make a loan
ing repayment) to another in a chiralkine system, but instead both receive kine money: in R-
and L-forms. For the same reason, a chiralkine system is not a l credit” system. The R- and L-
forms of chiralkine money are simply vectors indicating the unfulfilled parts of a contract.
Monopole money: single token money, including fiat money, such as pounds, yen, s, euros, etc.
Transaction: the barter (equitable exchange) of goods or services and left-handed money for an equal
amount of right-handed money.
Currency exchange: the ge of an amount of monopole money for an amount of kine money
in one of its two forms, left-handed or right-handed.
Chiralkine corporation: a legal person such as a company or partnership that is owned by one or more
users.
It will be appreciated that an invention of this kind, which ents a paradigm shift in thinking in a
field of technology, it is necessary to start out trying to describe features of the ion using
terminology used to describe the features of conventionally-used technology. In a conventional monetary
and property rights system, such term include bank, loan, credit, money, debt, property right, barter,
profit, mortgage, lien, contract, mutual credit, value and so on. However, conveying a proper
understanding of this invention requires the use of new terminology.
In another aspect, therefore, the present invention provides a chiralkine system for enabling equitable
trade between users, which comprises an information transmission network having a register ined
by a recorder, said register being open to inspection by said users and containing records of chiralkine
money and chiralkine ty rights created under chiralkine contracts. In one embodiment, the register
is an electronic register. The chiralkine system can be a closed system (in which chiralkine money is not
interchangeable with monopole money). Alternatively, it can be an open system (in which each form of
chiralkine money is interchangeable with monopole money).
Brief description of the gs.
Figure 1 shows how conventional (monopole) money is used in a conventional (monopole) ry
system.
Figure 2 shows how credit is used in a mutual credit system.
Figure 3 shows how chiralkine money is used in accordance with the present invention.
Figures 4a, 4b, 4c and 4d show the steps in how conventional (monopole) money is d and
redeemed by banks in a conventional (monopole) monetary system.
s 5a and 5b show how credit is created and redeemed in a mutual credit system.
Figures 6a and 6b show the steps in how chiralkine money is created and ed in accordance with
the present invention.
Referring to the figures, Figure 1 shows how money (M) is used in a monopole monetary system. A
person (P1) purchases goods or services (G) from another person (P2) using money (M). This can be a
cash transaction, or a bank transaction, in which case it is recorded in the ts of P1 and P2
maintained by a bank. P1 provides an instruction to the bank to effect this.
Figure 2 shows how credit (C) is used in a mutual credit system. A person (P1) purchases goods or
services (G) from another person (P2) using credit (C). In the ts of P1 and P2 maintained by a
recorder, the credit (C) is placed in the account of P2 and a debit is transferred to the account of P1,
ling the credit, so that the balance is zero. P1 provides an instruction to the recorder to make these
changes in the accounts.
Figure 3 shows how chiralkine money is used in a chiralkine ry system. A person (P1) purchases
goods or services (G) from r person (P2). The bartering organisation registers that R-chiralkine
money has been taken from the account of P1 and placed in the account of P2, and that L-chiralkine
money has been taken from the account of P2 and placed in the account of P1. P1 and P2 both have to
affirm to the bartering organisation that these changes are to be recorded in their accounts.
Figure 4a shows the first step in the creation of le money by a bank (B). In this step, a person (P1)
lends money (M) to the bank (B).
Figure 4b shows the second step in the creation of monopole money by bank (B) to finance the purchase
by a person (P2) of goods or services (G) from another person (P3). Usually, G is a monopole property
right in real estate, such as a house. This kind of transaction is conducted under a kind of contract known
a mortgage contract. The bank (B) lends the money (M) to P2, who then gives it outright to P3. This is
shown by a double headed arrow direct from the bank to P3. P3 now owns the money (M). The symmetry
in the le property right is now split, such the ownership of G is now in a transition state, both
bank B and person P2 having an interest. This is represented by dotted lines connecting both B and P1 to
G. It is common to speak of the bank having a lien on G. With this splitting of the property right, the bank
(B) (out of nothing) creates money (M) and a kind of anti-money (A) known as debt. The bank assumes
ownership of the money (M) and P2 the debt (A). The creation of money (M) and its opposite is
represented by half-arrows, because the process involves ry breaking.
Figure 4c shows the redemption of money in a monopole monetary system. Person P2, through sales of
goods or services, earns money (M) which is used to pay off the debt (A) to bank (B). The money (M)
and debt (A) cancel to zero. This is shown by two half arrows, as symmetry is now restored. The
mortgage is now cancelled and P2 owns the le right in G. Note that in a le monetary
system, P3 has no accountability for the money (M) d to finance the sale of G by P3 to P2. P3 can
sell G for whatever price the bank is g to create money for to cover.
Banks (in the current system) are commercial organisations that are run for a profit. They make a profit
by charging people to whom they lend money more than they lend to them. This is known as interest.
Thus, referring again to Figure 4b, the bank would require that P2 repays more than the amount of M, say
M+m. The payments to the bank are normally required to be paid in accordance with a schedule, known
as a mortgage schedule. The schedule will indicate a tion date by when all ts will need to
have been made. The extra money m received by the bank (after paying off any expenses of the bank) is
its profit, and can be used by the bank to purchase assets. One kind of asset that is often bought by a bank
is known as a government bond, sometimes known as a treasury or gilt. cians running a government
(representative of a State) can arrange for the government to borrow money by issuing these government
bonds, with an ent to pay back the amount borrowed plus interest, backed up by a promise that the
er will fund the repayment and interest. Banks can se these bonds. Thus, referring to Figure
4b again, the bank (B) can use the additional money paid by P2 to purchase government bonds, and so
enjoy an additional stream of income financed by the taxpayer.
Figure 4d shows what happens if P2 does not repay its debt to bank B in accordance with the repayment
schedule (is in default). Bank (B) sells the G to another person (Px) and uses the money received (M-m)
to pay off whatever debt (A) of P2 that the proceeds of the sale will cover. If the amount of money
received from the sale proceeds is insufficient to cover the debt, then the bank (B) will have to sell assets,
such as the government bonds it purchased, or take a charge against the money (M) that it s. If it
does the latter, then it will have insufficient funds to repay its own lender P1 (see Figure 4A), should P1
require repayment.
When a bank has many outstanding loans that its borrowers like P2 cannot repay, there is a problem. The
lenders to the bank lose confidence, and demand that their money be repaid. This is known as a run on the
bank. The bank is unable to sell all the properties on which it has mortgages, so is unable to repay its
borrowers. If this situation s with many banks at the same time, then a financial crisis results, such
as is the case today. The process is known as deleveraging. In response to the present financial crisis,
politicians (representing governments) have lent/given taxpayers’ money (essentially a call against future
taxes) to banks to make up some of their shortfall. This is known as recapitalisation of the banks. At the
same time, central banks have created money (out of nothing, i.e. d it) and used this to buy up
government bonds, enabling banks to sell their holdings of government bonds (backed by the taxpayer).
Referring to Figure 4b again, the net effect of all of this is the creation (from nothing) and transfer of
money (M) to the original vendor of G, P3, with the taxpayer accepting ultimate responsibility for the
consequences of the creation of the money (M) used to finance the sale of G to P2. An unstoppable spiral
takes hold, with widening wealth inequality, especially between indebted young and asset-rich old, as
future taxpayers increasingly create money for the benefit of the P3s. The expanding national debt has a
mirror opposite in the wealth of the P3s. There is no obvious way to unwind the position and restore
symmetry to the system. The imbalances are inherent in the monetary system itself.
A second aspect of the present financial crisis, trade imbalances, can also be understood with reference to
Figures 4a to 4d. The process starts with a loan of money from P1 to the bank (B). If P1 keeps on making
and selling things and lending the money it receives to bank B rather than ng it, then a trade
nce will result. It will also cause asset price bubbles, especially in real estate, as the bank B will
lend the money it receives out in mortgages. If P1 and P2 are in different States, as where there is trade
n States, then trade imbalances caused by one State running a trade surplus with respect to another
can cause huge problems. Such is the case today as between China and the rest of the world, especially
the US, or between Germany and the rest of the world, especially Greece. Again, there is no obvious way
to unwind the position and restore symmetry to the system. The imbalances are inherent in the monetary
system itself.
Figure 5a shows how credit is d in a mutual credit system. P1, who has no credit, purchases G from
P2. A debit entry is ed in the account of P1 and a credit entry in the t of P2. The creation of
the debit (D) and credit (C) are shown by two half arrows, as symmetry is . Note that in a mutual
credit system, P2 has no accountability for the credit (C) created to finance the sale of G by P2 to P1. P2
could sell a pencil to P1 for the price of an automobile.
Figure 5b shows how credit is redeemed in a mutual credit . P1, through the sale of goods or
services, acquires credit (C). This cancels the debit (D). The tion is shown with two half arrows, as
symmetry is restored. There is little a mutual credit organisation or its s can do to oblige credit to
be redeemed. Thus, some people will accept goods or services from others, but not provide any
themselves. The administrators need to identify these people and exclude them from continuing to trade
with other members of the trading community.
Figure 6a shows how chiralkine money is d in a chiralkine monetary system. P1 and P2 create
chiralkine money to initiate the transfer of G from P2 to P1. To do this, they enter into a chiralkine
contract. This contract has two parts, one part between P1 and P1 and the other between P1 and P2 jointly
as a pair with a bartering sation. The bartering organisation is not shown as it merely functions as a
register. In ance with the contract, the symmetry in the hip of G is split, creating left- and
right chiralkine ownerships in G. With this splitting in the symmetry of the ownership, P1 and P2 create
(from nothing) kine money in its two mirror forms: left and right chiralkine money. The chiralkine
property rights and chiralkine money represent unfulfilled terms of the chiralkine contract. P1 receives the
L-chiralkine money and the R-chiralkine property right. P2 receives the R-chiralkine money and the L-
chiralkine property right. The ownership of G is now shown by two dotted lines, as G at once belongs (in
a monopole sense) both to P1 and P2 and to neither of P1 and P2!
Figure 6b shows how chiralkine money is redeemed. P1 sells some goods or service to another person,
exchanging L-chiralkine money for alkine money. P2 purchases some goods or service from
another person, ging R-chiralkine money for L-chiralkine money. When both have traded, the
chiralkine money they hold is ready to be redeemed. The bartering organisation records that the money is
redeemed, and that the R- and L-chiralkine rights e so that the R-right (owned by P1) becomes a
monopole right.
Not shown in the figures is that the R- and L-chiralkine property rights are separately transferable and
hence tradable. Although they are separately le, they will not trade for the same price as G, e
it is uncertain r the chiralkine contract will be fulfilled by each of P1 and P2 acting in accordance
with their agreement with one another (in which case the monopole right will go to the holder of the R-
chiralkine right, P1) or one or both of P1 and P2 will be in default, so the other member of the pair will
have to make good on the ct between the pair and the bartering sation. In the latter case the
way in which the members of the pair have to make good on the contract ines who acquires the
monopole right in G.
The determination of which one of the holders of the L- and alkine property rights acquires the
monopole right is analogous to the way in which mortgages work. However, in a chiralkine system, both
of the parties who have created chiralkine money are held to account, so it matters which of them is in
default. Thus, at the completion of a chiralkine contract, if one of the trading pair is in t with
respect to the other, the ownership of the monopole right is decided and ered by the bartering
organisation in favour of the member of the trading pair that would be required to remedy the default. If
both are in default, the balance of R- and L-chiralkine money between them determines the overall
e (i.e. which is most in default). If there is an excess of one form of R- and L-chiralkine money
between them, it means that there is a trade imbalance between the pair and other users. Chiralkine money
can only be redeemed when there is a trade balance (equal amounts of R- and L- are required for
redemption). This is where concepts from quantum theory, in particular of spin systems and entanglement
find application on monetary and property rights systems. When L-and R-chiralkine property rights
collapse into a monopole right, there are two le outcomes, which are determined by the relative
positions of the members of the trading pair in R- and L-chiralkine money.
The ing Table 1 summarises the outcomes registered by the bartering organisation for the closure
of chiralkine property rights, depending on which party if any is in default of that part of the chiralkine
contract that is between the two of them. The interests of the users of the ing organisation are
privileged over the interests of the members of the pair of people that create chiralkine money. The
bartering sation has no responsibility for ining the liabilities of members one to the other in a
defaulting pair, nor of making a determination of appropriate compensation. This is a matter that can only
be addressed independently, if necessary through a court of law. The position of the ing
organisation is symmetric as between the two members of the pair.
Table 1: Outcomes where P1 has started out with an R-chiralkine ownership right and L-
chiralkine money, and P2 has started out with an L-chiralkine ownership right and R-chiralkine
money.
Action Outcome
All trades completed in Chiralkine money redeemed. Owner of R-chiralkine right (P1 or
accordance with contract. successor in title) registered as owner of monopole right.
No Trades were done. P1 Revert to al state. Chiralkine money redeemed. Owner of
and P2 both in t. L-chiralkine right (P2 or successor in title) registered as owner of
monopole right
P2 in default. Purchase required to restore balance in R- and L-chiralkine
money before redemption can take place. P1 can make purchase
to complete contract. Owner of R-chiralkine right (P1 or
successor in title) then registered as owner of monopole right. In
effect, bartering organisation registers gift from P2 to P1.
P1 in default. Sale required to e balance in R- and L-chiralkine money
before redemption can take place. P2 can make sale to complete
contract. Owner of L-chiralkine right (P2 or successor in title)
then registered as owner of monopole right.
One or both of P1 and P2 If there is an excess of R n them, P2 is most in default. If
has some R and some L there is an excess of L, P1 is most in default. P1 and P2 can comoney
, so one or both are operate to complete the contract by making one or more trades
in default. that amount to a net sale. Ownership of monopole right
ered according to who was most in default.
In a closed system, both members of a g pair will have an amount of chiralkine money at least equal
to the amount that they have created. In an open system, r, one or both of them could subsequently
have entered into a currency exchange agreement such that they have exchanged L- or R-chiralkine
money for le money, as described hereinafter. It is possible that at the completion date of their
chiralkine contract, neither has any chiralkine money remaining. The created chiralkine money would
now be in the accounts of other users. This corresponds to the case in Table 1 where both P1 and P2 are in
t, and no trades have been done, so the ing organisation would er the owner of the L-
chiralkine right (P2 or successor in title) as the owner of the monopole right. However, in an open ,
the ability of the members of trading pairs to exchange monopole money for L- or R-chiralkine money
provides an alternative way of avoiding default.
If the non-defaulting member of a pair does not remedy the default of the other pair member, then the
g pair is in default with respect to its part of the contract with the bartering organisation. The
bartering organisation collapses any chiralkine rights into monopole rights and registers them to one pair
member fied as described above. The bartering organisation can sanction both pair members
equally, for example by freezing their accounts in chiralkine money or suspending/excluding them from
membership of the bartering organisation. These ons can be published.
When a trading pair is in default, the balance in the distribution of R- and L-chiralkine money as between
the trading pair and the others needs to be ed, both in amount and symmetry, so it as if the
chiralkine contract has been closed properly. This can be achieved by making some form of equitable
distribution across the trading users. Normally trading pairs in t will have a surplus of L over R
chiralkine money in their accounts (have received more goods and services from the other members than
they have ed), so the other users will need to make good by receiving L-chiralkine money and
giving R. The bartering organisation can handle this as follows. It can, periodically, identify the trading
pairs in default and assess in the aggregate the amount of L-or R-chiralkine money these pairs would need
to exchange with the other members of the bartering organisation in order for the money created by them
to be redeemed. The bartering organisation can then open holding accounts in R- and L-chiralkine money
and transfer the balances from the accounts in default to these. It can then issue a demand on users to
exchange chiralkine money with it (R- for L-), not necessarily in equal amounts but ient to enable it
to redeem the chiralkine money in the holding accounts. Equitable distribution could be ed, for
example, by means of periodic calls levied on all users as a condition for continued membership. This
could cause serious hardship in individual cases. Levying it as a percentage of the amount of chiralkine
money in the account of a user is one alternative, but would violate the symmetry of equitable trade and
hence be inequitable. Levying it as a percentage of the value of users’ monopole rights in real assets, like
a tax, would be another alternative that would not violate symmetry.
It will be appreciated that the resolution of defaults in a kine system, although on the face of it more
complex that the tion of defaults in a conventional monetary system, is ageous. Thus defaults
cannot accumulate in the system, but are kept isolated at the level of trading pairs and are ly
resolved. In a conventional system, mortgage-backed borrowers from banks can accumulate huge debts,
which can lead to sudden financial crises when taxpayers need to bail out the banks. This creates huge
shocks to the economy, and unfairly burdens working (especially young) people with the costs of the
bailout.
A non-defaulting pair member that acts to make good on the t of the other pair member may, after
the kine money created by the pair has been redeemed, have trading privileges restored by the
bartering organisation. Thus, provided that individual members make good on the obligations that they
assume in pairs, they may still be permitted to trade. A user’s reputation as a good pair member is very
important to them, and to the credibility of the chiralkine money that they create.
The closing down of a bartering organisation according to the invention can be effected as follows. If
possible, a period of notice is provided during which users can seek to bring their chiralkine contracts to
completion. fter, monopole rights are registered according to the balances in the accounts of
trading pair members, just like in the case of defaults.
The following describes how the bartering system according to the invention works using chiralkine
money as described hereinabove.
The means for creating user agreements between the bartering organisation and users can be virtual.
A person wishing to enter into a user agreement with a bartering organisation will normally apply online.
The terms of a standard user agreement can be yed, and accepted or rejected by clicking on a virtual
box on a computer . As part of their process for handling applications for acceptance of applicants
as users, a bartering organisation can request information to verify the ty of the applicant, and
record personal information, such as the ctive user’s postal address. It can also perform checks to
identify any reasons for rejecting the application, for example a us y of non-compliance with
agreements relating to the bartering organisation or other organisation. ingly, the bartering
organisation can maintain a database of users. It can assign a unique identifying number to a user, which
can be used to link the user to all matters pertaining to that user. It could be a bar code or a quick response
code.
The means for implementing user agreements comprises technical features that together enable users to
use the bartering system to barter for goods and services.
The means for representing chiralkine money can be real, as in a coin or paper note (cash), or virtual, as
can be displayed on a computer screen. A coin or note is preferably configured so as to be difficult to
forge, for example like monopole coins and banknotes. The representation can indicate whether the
kine money is left-handed or right-handed, and what value it is. For example, chiralkine money of
value 5 can be denoted 5 LCU (5 left-handed chiralkine units) or 5 RCU ht-handed chiralkine units).
Once a bartering organisation has entered into a user agreement with a user, it can set up an electronic
account in chiralkine money (right- and left-handed) for the user. The user can access this account online,
and direct payments in right- and left-handed chiralkine money from the t to the account of another
user. Access to the account may be protected by security, for example encryption (such as using a digital
certificate). A user may be provided with a special card that evidences the identity of the user and/or a
secret password (for example a smart card, such as a SIM card used in cellular phones, including
smartphones). Accordingly in one embodiment, the system according to the invention is adapted such that
users can communicate with the ing organisation using a special card that evidences the identity of
the user and/or a secret password. Money can be moved n user accounts whenever bartering
agreements n users are implemented, and can be placed in or removed from accounts by the
bartering organisation as it ents a credit agreement or if kine money in the form of cash is
withdrawn or deposited.
In one embodiment of the invention, the means for representing chiralkine money is purely electronic.
Cash is not used in the system. Users are then unable to engage in ctions without the bartering
organisation effecting changes in both left-handed and right-handed money in their electronic accounts.
Thus, for example, a user could not improperly exchange goods or services for one form of chiralkine
money without giving the other form of chiralkine money in . This is an important difference with
the split tally stick system of medieval times. In a chiralkine economy, taxation would e a taxpayer
paying right-handed chiralkine money to the state in return for left-handed money. Servants of the state
would need to pay left-handed chiralkine money to the state in return for their salary in right-handed
chiralkine money. Thus, the state would have to live within its means. One can speculate that in a
chiralkine economy, the role of the state would be much reduced compared with that in a fiat money
economy. Thus, users might collectively barter with individuals or chiralkine corporations for the
provision of public services, such as fire es, police, healthcare and education.
It will be appreciated that a property right in something is different from the thing itself. It is an imaginary
concept. You can own an apple and you can eat an apple, but you cannot eat a property right, because it
has no physical form. You can transfer title in a property right in something to another without changing
the thing itself.
The t of left- and right-handed property rights is highly abstract. They are entangled . They
are created when left- and right-handed money is created at the start of the implementation of a credit
(chiralkine) agreement and they collapse together to form a monopole ty right when nd righthanded
money is recombined as the implementation of a credit agreement is concluded. They form the
basis for the ‘value’ of chiralkine money, like gold used to do for monopole money when the gold
standard was used. They hold both parties to a barter agreement to account until both have been satisfied:
both have provided and received goods or services of value equal to the amount of the kine money
they have created. If all users of a bartering organisation have exchanged goods or services, then there
will be only monopole property rights remaining in existence, and no chiralkine money.
The means for representing monopole property rights can be virtual, as in a field in a database, such that
they can be displayed on a computer . An electronic register of property rights can be maintained
by the bartering sation, linking descriptions of goods or services to property rights and the users
that own them.
The means for representing chiralkine property rights can be virtual, such that they can be yed on a
computer screen. An onic register of chiralkine property rights can be maintained by the bartering
organisation, linking descriptions of goods or services to property rights and the paired users that own
them. The representation can indicate whether the chiralkine property right is right-handed or left-handed.
The web-based bartering market can comprise a field for displaying a entation of goods or services
to be bartered (the Subject), for example a written description or a photograph. It can also comprise a
field for displaying prices, including asking prices and bids (offers). The market can also comprise a field
for displaying whether a user intends to pay with existing s or enter into a credit agreement. It can
also comprise a field displaying a time limit for completion of bids. It can also comprise a field for
displaying the terms agreed in a bartering ction agreement (the price agreed and the arrangements
for implementation such as the shipping of goods and the transfer of kine money between users’
accounts).
The bartering market can r comprise a database of prices from past ctions, which can be used
as a reference for pricing goods or services to be bartered and, when credit needs to be created, for
valuing goods or services to ensure that an agreed price is realistic. This assures that the value being
represented by chiralkine money is soundly based.
The bartering organisation can provide the subject with a unique identifying number (which could be a
bar code or quick se code), which can then be used to link the subject to all contracts and users
through their unique identifying numbers. Objects can be marked with this number to identify them. The
number can also be used to track the transportation of subjects n users, for example when a postal
e, courier or other commercial carrier is used.
The provision of a unique identifying number to a subject can be advantageous where a government
levies taxes based upon the value of assets (monopole rights) owned by a person. This would be most
practical if the number were to include some code that identifies asset types upon which taxation is to be
based, for example real estate or automobiles. A search of a bartering organisation register for subjects
identified by that code could readily yield a listing of all such monopole rights owned by a person,
together with a record of the amount in chiralkine money for which the right was traded.
Taxation breaks the symmetry of equitable trade by imposing a fictional obligation on one to fund the
purchase of r. In effect, a person who goes without a t for the benefit of another is penalised.
Properly administered, taxation and public spending can elicit highly advantageous collaborative
behaviour: our that cannot emerge through simple pairwise trades. However, the current monetary
systems enable the opaque creation of money by banks to cover the opaque unfunded commitments of
politicians, with future ers being liable for making good on the consequences. Tax systems under
such monetary systems are often highly complex, indeed pherable to ordinary people, and have no
clear equitable ples ying them.
Chiralkine systems are based upon equitable trade. Unlike in a conventional monetary system where
money represents a store of value, the two forms of chiralkine money are not stores of value, but merely
vectors indicating the illed parts of contracts. The balances in the two forms of chiralkine money in
the accounts of members of a trading pair provide a clear numerical measure for others to gauge whether
they are standing behind the contract through which they have d the money. The amount of
chiralkine money in circulation at a given time is simply a entation of the totality of lete
contracts in the bartering community. There is no profit to be made in a transaction involving the
exchange of chiralkine money.
It is tempting to consider breaking the symmetry such that tax is levied (in R-chiralkine money for L) on
a party receiving R-chiralkine money for left. However, this would be to misunderstand chiralkine money
and fall into the trap of equating R-chiralkine money with conventional money. It is also tempting to
empower an agency or those charged with responsibility for procuring public services to create more
chiralkine money than is required to cover the costs of administering equitable , but this would
again be to readmit the risks of unfunded spending commitments being made by governments under the
current system. Taxation needs to be based upon the real assets (monopole rights) accumulated by people,
especially real estate . Real assets represent a store of value that people can late in a
chiralkine economy. The store will start out empty during childhood, fill during mid-adulthood and empty
out during old age, as real assets are traded out in effect to pay for life-sustaining goods and services. Tax
can be raised by assessing the value of the real assets of a person and creating chiralkine money in L- and
R-forms in an amount of a percentage of that value, providing the person with the L-form and the State
with the R-form and indicating a completion date by which the person and the State must provide the
amount of chiralkine money in R- and L-form for redemption. This form of taxation is essentially that of
the medieval tally stick system.
The means for creating credit agreements (chiralkine cts) between the bartering organisation and
users thereof subject to a barter transaction agreement can be virtual, such as can be displayed on a
screen. It can se a field containing a standard agreement that users can accept or reject by clicking
on a box. An example of such an agreement is provided in Illustration 1 hereinafter. It can further
comprise a means for checking the credit-worthiness (reputations) of users (their past y) and a
valuation of the goods or services to be ed, for example by checking against price records in a
database of past transactions.
The credit agreement has two parts, one part between first and second people in a trading pair that are
creating chiralkine money, and a second part between the pair as a whole and the bartering organisation
senting all its users). The two parts in this special form of contract, which is referred to herein as a
‘chiralkine contract’, are orthogonal. The second part holds the first and second people y to account
to all users of the bartering organisation for the chiralkine money that they create. If one of them is in
default, the other must make good, so that the ct is completed. It is through the orthogonal
relationship of the two parts of the ct that symmetry is broken in ownership of goods or services
being traded, enabling the creation of kine money and chiralkine property rights.
The implementation of a credit agreement requires the creation of chiralkine money in equal amounts of
left and handed kine money to the amount of the price agreed in the barter transaction
agreement. It also requires the creation of left and right-handed chiralkine property rights in the goods or
service being provided. The prospective purchaser of the goods or services receives the right-handed
chiralkine property right, and left-handed chiralkine money, and the prospective vendor receives the lefthanded
chiralkine property right, and right-handed chiralkine money. The left- and right handed
chiralkine money is credited to (recorded in) the accounts of the users. The hip of the right- and
left-handed property rights is recorded in a er of property rights. The credit agreement provides a
schedule for the repayment (redemption) of left-handed chiralkine money by the prospective vendor (who
now has right-handed money in their account) and right-handed money by the prospective purchaser (who
now has left-handed money in their account). When the bartering organisation has been repaid (is in a
position to redeem) all that it is owed by both users, the left- and right chiralkine money is destroyed
(cancelled out), and the left and right chiralkine property rights are collapsed into a monopole property
right. Entries are made in the property register to the effect that the chiralkine property rights have been
collapsed and the monopole property right is now owned by the ser.
In certain cases, kine money can be created and redeemed very quickly, before any goods change
hands or services are performed. Thus, chiralkine money couples barter transactions er, enabling
paired users who create chiralkine money to each simultaneously enter into barter transaction agreements
with other users to trade in and trade out. This is particularly advantageous in transactions involving real
estate.
The terms of the credit agreement ensure that the prospective vendor has to spend the right-handed
chiralkine money to obtain left-handed chiralkine money, and the prospective purchaser has to sell some
goods or service to obtain right-handed chiralkine money. It forces the completion of the al barter.
When the original prospective vendor has purchased something that person wants to the value of the
original barter, and the prospective purchaser has sold something to the value of the original barter, then
the barter will be ted.
The bartering organisation can provide a unique identifying number to the credit ent (chiralkine
contract), which can then be associated with identifying s of all users and an identifying number
of the subject to which it relates.
The means for implementing a bartering transaction ent can comprise means for transferring
chiralkine money between users’ accounts and means for confirming shipping of goods from user to user
or tion of a service by one user for another.
The bartering organisation can operate as a closed or an open system. In a closed system, monopole (real)
money cannot be exchanged for chiralkine money. In an open system, monopole money can be
exchanged by users for chiralkine money. The exchange rates for monopole money with left- and with
right-handed money can be fixed by the bartering organisation, or determined by barter. When they are
determined by barter, they can ate, depending on the balance of trade in monopole money between
the bartering organisation and the outside world. A trade deficit with the outside world would result in an
increase of the value of anded money in monopole money, because importers would need to
purchase it in order to sell into the bartering organisation. Left- and handed money always exists in
equal s, so a net importer would need to buy a surplus of left-handed money and sell a s of
right handed money.
Accordingly, in one embodiment of the invention, the system is an open system in which the means for
implementing user agreements further comprises
(ix) means for representing monopole money;
(x) means for creating currency exchange agreements for exchanging monopole money for
chiralkine money; and
(xi) means for enting currency exchange agreements.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the means for implementing user agreements further
comprises:
(xii) means for representing a register of user property rights.
The register may record monopole and chiralkine property rights against the name of the user(s) that
owns them.
The interchangeability of monopole money with each form of chiralkine money is an extraordinary aspect
of the present invention, but it s from the fact that monopole money has two functions, not one. It
can behave like the R-form of chiralkine money in some situations and like the L-form of chiralkine
money in others. In other words, the ing that is monopole money is actually one something to buy
with and another ing to sell for, and at any given moment in time these two somethings are not the
same. When money changes hands, different information flows in one direction than the other. It is
information about the balance of trade in a trading community, and it is lost whenever debits and credits
are allowed to cancel. Requiring that monopole money can only be traded with L- chiralkine money for
R-chiralkine money, as is required for the trading of goods and services, would not work. It has to be
exchangeable with both. This is why the conventional understanding of money is flawed, and why the
present monopole monetary system yields all the problems that it does.
Users in systems that are open (in which monopole money can be traded for chiralkine money) can
resolve trade imbalances between users internally h users converting chiralkine money into and out
of monopole money. This is particularly the case where one or both parties to a kine contract are in
t and need to acquire one or other form of chiralkine money, or where a system needs to be shut
down and the positions of users ed in le money. However, they are then d to the
risks of trading using a monopole monetary system!
It will be appreciated that the bartering organisation requires resources in order to be able to operate. It
could be run as a community or charity project, based upon donations and the work of volunteers.
However, it could be funded by selling advertising space for a fee, or by charging an strative fee
when users enter into agreements with it and or other users. A fee could be charged in monopole or
chiralkine money. In one embodiment, a user and the bartering organisation enter into a chiralkine
ct, in which the user receives L-chiralkine money and the bartering organisation receives R-
chiralkine money, the contract providing that when the contract is completed and the money redeemed,
the user must provide R-chiralkine money and the bartering organisation L-chiralkine money.
Accordingly, in yet another ment of the invention, the bartering system further comprises:
(c) means for creating advertising agreements n said bartering organisation and
advertisers; and
(d) means for implementing advertising agreements.
The means for implementing advertising agreements can comprise advertising space on a website of the
ing organisation, or communicated through other means such as by telephone.
A system based upon left- and right handed money would require apparatuses adapted to handle money in
both forms, such as cash dispensers, vending machines, etc. According to another aspect, ore, the
present invention provides an apparatus adapted for use with left and right handed money, selected from:
a bank card, comprising a e readable identification code, said card being adapted to handle
transactions in left- and right-handed money;
a cash machine d to dispense left- and right-handed money (cash);
a cash er adapted to handle and record transactions in left- and right-handed money (cash);
a vending machine adapted to receive money (cash) in one of right- and left-handed forms and
dispense it in the other; and
an apparatus for use by a bank, comprising left- and right handed money and a er
programmed to maintain records of transactions in left and right-handed money.
In one embodiment, said tus is selected from:
a bank card, comprising a machine readable fication code, said card being adapted to handle
transactions in left- and right-handed money; and
an apparatus for use by a bank, comprising left- and right- handed money and a er
programmed to maintain records of transactions in left and right-handed money. In another embodiment,
said apparatus is a bank card, comprising a machine readable fication code, said card being a SIM
card in a mobile device, said device adapting said card to handle transactions in left- and right-handed
money, for example a cell phone (mobile phone).
According to another aspect, the present invention provides an apparatus for use by a lawyer, comprising
documents enting left- and right-handed property rights and a computer programmed to maintain
records of transactions in left and right-handed property rights.
In another embodiment, the system according to the invention is adapted such that users can communicate
with the bartering organisation using an apparatus having GPS (global ite positioning) technology.
The ation provided by this technology can be used to help reduce the carbon footprint of users, by
enabling users to optimise trade pairings based upon the distances that goods or services are provided
across.
The means for implementing any agreement can comprise ons against a user or pair of users in
default. For example, the name of the user or names of users in a pair of users may be published on the
te of the bartering organisation. An account may be frozen or a user may be refused further access
to the services of the bartering organisation.
In another aspect, the present invention provides a method of using a system as defined hereinabove, in
which said bartering organisation enters into a user agreement with a chiralkine corporation.
In another embodiment a user is a chiralkine corporation owned by one or more users. The users may, for
example, own le rights in shares in the chiralkine corporation. To the extent that the chiralkine
corporation owns assets, such as monopole property rights, the users own a share in those assets. The
users may have complimentary skills, such as a plumber, accountant, IT expert and lawyer who er
can produce goods or provide services for bartering with other users of the bartering organisation. The
experts may work under a collaboration agreement, for example as described in United States patent
application publication number US 20110082805A1.
In another embodiment, the bartering organisation can be an e-commerce business or an m-commerce
ss. In one embodiment, the bartering organisation is a telecommunications business. In another
embodiment, it is a social media ss. Examples of social media sses include FACEBOOK,
GOOGLE, IN, YAHOO and TWITTER. In yet another embodiment it is an internet search
engine business.
It will be appreciated that the invention is all about equitable trade, which means that different parties are
ed, each of which can own property. Accordingly, different technical components of the ing
system can be owned by different parties. The bartering system can be thought of as being made up of a
complementary pair of apparatuses adapted to communicate each with the other, one pair member being
for the bartering organisation and the other for a user. These apparatuses can be made and sold separately.
According to another aspect, therefore, the present invention provides an apparatus selected from a
mentary pair of apparatuses capable of communicating each with the other and that together
constitute a web-based bartering system as described hereinabove, one being for a ing organisation
and the other for a user. In one embodiment, the apparatus is an e-commerce or an m-commerce
communications device for a user. Examples of such devices have been described hereinabove, and
include telecommunications devices such as cell phones.
The following Illustration and Examples illustrate the invention.
Illustration 1: KINE CONTRACT
In the first part, this contract is made n:
……………………………….. (First-named Person)
………………………………... (Second-named )
together referred to as Trading Pair; and
in the second part between
Trading Pair
…………………………………..
(Bartering Organisation)
Whereas the named Person wishes to e to the Second-named Person and the Second-
named Person wishes to receive from the named Person the following subject:
………………………………... (Subject)
equivalent in an amount in units of chiralkine money of:
………………………………... (Amount)
and First-named Person and Second-named Person wish to trade subsequently with Members of the
Bartering Organisation such that each has both provided and received subjects of amount at least equal to
the Amount on or before the Completion Date of
………………………………... (Completion Date)
whereas the Trading Pair wishes to create chiralkine money (R and L) in units equal to the Amount, for
a period of time not to exceed the Completion Date and then redeem it; and
s the Bartering Organisation is willing to maintain a file for this contract and a register of
transactions nder for inspection by Members of the Bartering Organisation; and
whereas the creation of the chiralkine money requires that the hip of the Subject be transitioned
through a state of chiralkine ownership having separately tradable L- and R-forms for the duration of the
existence of the chiralkine money;
Now therefore it is agreed as follows:
between the Bartering Organisation and the Trading Pair that:
the Bartering Organisation will assign a contract number to this contract and associated with the
contract number, maintain, open for inspection by its Members:
a file for this contract containing a copy of this contract and any other documents ng thereto; and
a register ning ation identifying the First-named Person, the Second-named Person, the
Subject, the Amount, the Completion Date, the creation and redemption of chiralkine money by the
Trading Pair, the creation and tion of chiralkine ownership in the Subject, each ownership in the
Subject, the outstanding balances in R- and L-chiralkine money of the First-named Person and Second-
named Person under this contract, and the current balances in R- and L-chiralkine money held by the
First-named Person and Second-named Person;
the Trading Pair will create, trade using and redeem chiralkine money in accordance with the ent
between the First-named Person and the Second-named Person, will provide all documents and
information required to be filed or registered by the ing Organisation in accordance with this
contract, and will check and approve the file and register of the Bartering Organisation for cy and
completeness; and
between the First-named Person and the Second-named Person that:
the First-named Person and the Second-named Person will create kine money in R- and L- forms,
each in the amount of the Amount, and chiralkine ownerships in the Subject, each in L- and R- forms,
they will separate the chiralkine money and hips in the Subject so that the Second-named Person
receives the R-chiralkine ownership in the Subject and L-chiralkine money and the named Person
receives the L-chiralkine ownership in the Subject and R-chiralkine money;
each of the First-named Person and the Second-named Person will trade with Members of the
Bartering Community so as to exchange an amount at least equal to the Amount of the form of chiralkine
money they have received with its opposite;
on or before the Completion Date, the First-named Person will e L-chiralkine money in the
amount of the Amount and the Second-named Person will provide R-chiralkine money in the amount of
the Amount, and these forms of kine money will be ed and so be redeemed; and
upon tion of the chiralkine money, the ownership of the Subject is restored, fully transferred to
the owner at that time of the R-chiralkine ownership in the Subject.
This contract is subject to the standard terms and conditions of the Bartering sation, which provide
for outcomes in the event of defaults by one or more of the parties to this ct.
Example 1
Person P1, Person P2 and Person P3 wish to use the es of a bartering organisation. They apply
online to each enter into user ents with it. The bartering organisation checks whether there is any
reason to exclude P1, P2 or P3, for example because they are in default of a prior agreement with the
bartering organisation or any other organisation. Finding no objections, the ing organisation enters
into separate user agreements with each of P1, P2 and P3. The bartering organisation opens accounts in
left- and right-handed chiralkine money for each of P1, P2 and P3. The balance on each account is zero.
P1 wishes to offer a le or chiralkine property right in goods G1 for barter. A description and/or
image of G1 is provided on a web-based bartering market maintained by the bartering organisation. A
suggested price in chiralkine money is provided. P2 and P3 both bid for G1. The bid of P2 is accepted.
Accordingly, P1 and P2 enter into a barter transaction agreement. Each of P1 and P2 needs chiralkine
money in order for the barter transaction agreement to be implemented. Neither has any in their account.
P1 and P2 seek to enter into a credit ent (chiralkine contract) with the bartering organisation. The
bartering organisation checks the agreed price for G1 against historical transaction records and confirms
that this is realistic. The bartering organisation then enters into a credit agreement with P1 and P2. It
(strictly the contract) then creates both left and right-handed forms of chiralkine property rights in G1,
and the requisite amounts of left- and right-handed forms of chiralkine money. The money is placed in
the accounts maintained by the bartering organisation on behalf of P1 and P2, left-handed for P1 and
right-handed for P2.
P1 now transfers ownership of the right-handed property right to P2, and the bartering organisation
registers this. Left-handed money is transferred from the account of P1 to P2. P2 transfers ownership of
the left-handed chiralkine property right to P1 and the bartering organisation registers this. Right-handed
kine money is transferred from the account of P2 to P1. Now P1 has right-handed chiralkine money,
but needs to repay nt for tion) the bartering organisation in left-handed chiralkine money. P2
has left-handed chiralkine money, but needs to repay nt for tion) the bartering organisation
in right-handed chiralkine money. The only way for P1 to obtain this left-handed chiralkine money is to
spend the right-handed chiralkine money in a bartering transaction for something. P2 has left handed
chiralkine money, but needs to repay the bartering organisation in right-handed chiralkine money. The
only way to obtain this right-handed chiralkine money is for P2 to sell something in a bartering
transaction.
P2 wishes to offer a monopole property right in goods G2 for barter. A description and or image of G2 is
provided on a sed bartering market maintained by the bartering organisation. A suggested price in
chiralkine money is provided. P3 bids for G2. The bid is accepted. Accordingly, P2 and P3 enter into a
barter transaction agreement.
P3 needs right-handed chiralkine money in order for the barter transaction agreement to be implemented.
P3 has none in P3’s account. P3 has le money. P3 wishes to enter into a cy exchange
agreement for exchanging le money for right handed chiralkine money.
A description of the proposed exchange is provided on the web-based bartering market maintained by the
ing organisation. A suggested price in right-handed chiralkine money for the monopole money is
provided. P4 and P5 both bid for it. The bid of P5 is accepted. Accordingly, P3 and P5 enter into a
currency exchange agreement. The currency exchange agreement is implemented. P3 now has the right-
handed chiralkine money in P3’s account and P5 has the monopole money. The barter transaction
agreement between P2 and P3 is then implemented. Now P2 has the handed chiralkine money in
P2’s account. P3 has the corresponding amount of left-handed chiralkine money in P3’s t and the
goods G2. P2 uses some of the right-handed chiralkine money to pay off P2’s debt to the bartering
organisation in respect of the contract for G1.
Eventually, after several bartering transaction agreements have been implemented, the debts of P1 and P2
to the bartering organisation in left- and right-handed chiralkine money have been paid back (R and L
chiralkine money have been presented for redemption). The chiralkine money is then destroyed, and the
left-and handed property rights in the goods G1 are collapsed into a monopole property right owned
by P2. This is all recorded in the register of user property rights ined by the bartering organisation.
Example 2 – Use of Left- and Right-handed Money and Property Rights in Commerce
This e is taken from the priority document that first contained it, . As
originally written, the term “bank” was used to denote what is now more properly referred to in this
specification as the bartering organisation or recorder. The original term “bank” has been retained in this
example. The example in the priority document also erroneously described the bank as having liens. This
has been corrected below, with deleted text being shown in square brackets [ . . . ] . The “bank” is only a
recorder that maintains a register. The created money is a pair of vectors, not a store of value.
A property developer P purchases a plot of land on which there is a house and a garden. P forms a new
plot by dividing off part of the garden and builds a house on this. Person Q wishes to buy the new house.
P and Q agree that Q may purchase the house from P for 100,000 currency units. In order for this
transaction to take place, left-and right handed property rights in the new plot must be d. Lawyer S,
acting for P, creates two documents consisting of left- and right-handed title deeds to the new plot. These
are reviewed by Lawyer R acting for Q. S and R both save electronic copies of the documents on their
tive computer systems, and also enter the names of P and Q into their respective computerised
docketing systems that record the ownership of left- and right-handed property rights. In order to finance
the transaction, P and Q both borrow money from Bank B. Both P and Q have accounts at B, in both LCU
and RCU. Each account has one account number for both LCU and RCU. B appraises the house and
agrees that it is worth 100,000 currency units. B creates (from nothing) 100,000 left-handed currency
units (LCU) and 100,000 right-handed currency units (LCU). It lends the 100,000 LCU to P and the
100,000 RCU to Q. The creation of the money is recorded in the financial accounts of the bank. B enters a
debit of 100,000 LCU against the account of P and 100,000 RCU t the account of Q in its er
system. The money is transferred electronically to the client bank accounts of S and R respectively. S and
R arrange for 0 LCU to be erred to the bank account of Q and 100,000 RCU to be transferred
to the bank t of P. B records these transactions in its computer . The bank account of P now
shows a credit of 100,000 RCU, whereas that of Q now shows a credit of 100,000 LCU. S and R now
apply to register the creation and current ownership of the property rights with the government real estate
ry. Since the ty rights have been used as security for the loans, this fact is recorded by the
registry alongside the ownership of the left-handed property right by P and the right-handed property right
by Q. [The left-handed property right is secured on the RCU deposited in the bank account of P, the
balance of which the bank B holds until the equivalent amount in LCU has been repaid off the loan.] P
and Q now pay their lawyers for the services rendered to them. P and S each use their respective bank
cards, each card sing a machine readable identification code and being adapted to handle
transactions in left- and right-handed money. 1,000 RCU is d from the bank account of P and
credited to the bank account of S. 1,000 LCU is debited from the bank t of S and credited to the
bank account of P. Q and R use cash, Q giving R 900 RCU and receiving 900 LCU in return. P now
needs some more cash. P withdraws 600 RCU and 50 LCU in tes from its bank account using the
bankcard and a cash e adapted to dispense left-and right-handed money. The bank B adjusts the
balances of RCU and LCU in P’s bank account accordingly. P then purchases a bottle of a drink for 2
RCU from a vending machine. P inserts a bank note for 5RCU into the vending machine and receives in
return the bottle of drink, 3 RCU in coins and 2 LCU in coins. Next P goes into a shop and buys a new
television set for 500 RCU. P pays for this in cash. P receives the television set and 500 LCU. The cashier
for the shop uses a cash register ning cash in both left- and right-handed money to receive the 500
RCU and dispense the 500 LCU. The cash register records the transaction and prints a t showing
the transaction. P deposits the 500 LCU in its bank t, and s that this be used to reduce the
balance on its loan used to e the sale of the property to Q. The bank cannot lend out this money. It
can only create money secured on left- and right-handed property rights, and can only lend money created
by it or deposited with it. Q gets a job. Q borrows 3000 LCU from the bank, giving this to Q’s employer
in return for 3000 RCU. Q deposits this in the bank, and directs that 750 RCU be used to reduce the
balance on its loan used to purchase the property from P. The bank cannot lend out this money. The bank
combines 500 RCU with the 500 LCU paid back by P, and this money is destroyed. The remaining 250
RCU s credited to Q’s loan account. [The bank retains a lien on the left-and right-handed property
rights. If either P or Q is in default of its loan obligations, the bank can enforce its rights. If Q is in
default, the bank can repossess the right-handed property right, which gives it physical possession of the
property, and sell on the right. If P is in default, the bank can freeze the outstanding RCU in P’s account
until P has repaid the necessary amount of the loan in LCU.] The RCU and LCU d with the creation
and sale of the left-and right-handed property rights ue to ate in the economy. [Their value is
based upon a real asset: the property purchased from P by Q, the value of which has been agreed by P, Q
and the bank]. They can be exchanged with goods or services [or leant out], just like single currency
money, but money cannot be created without the creation of new left- and right-handed property rights
and is consumed when these rights are transformed into single property rights. Eventually both P and Q
repay their loans from the bank, at which point their original contract, the performance of which the
money was based upon, is completed. All 100,000 RCU and LCU are recombined and destroyed. The
left- and right-handed property rights are also combined and ormed, so that Q now becomes the sole
owner of the property. The bank then applies to the registry to have the s recorded by the registry,
such that [the record of the bank’s lien on the left-and right-handed ty rights has been removed and]
Q is the sole registered owner of the property. This single property right continues until it is
extinguished, for example abandoned.
