First Embodiment
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an overview of an information distribution system 600. As shown in FIG. The information distribution system 600 includes an information distribution server device 6 for realizing the information distribution system 600 and a plurality of terminal devices 7 used by the user.

The information distribution server device 6 provides a platform for an information exchange market that enables the transmission of content, exchanges the in-system currency L described later issued based on the transmitted content, and enables the use of the in-system currency L. Do. The information distribution server device 6 is managed by a system administrator of the information exchange market. The platform of the information exchange market is a web-based system, and access to the market from the terminal device 7 by the web browser is realized. The use of the information exchange market by the terminal device 7 basically requires account registration. Content transmitted in the information exchange market may be partially or entirely disclosed publicly so as to be viewable or viewable from an unspecified number of information terminal devices not having account registration. The information exchange market may be based not only on the Web (WWW: World Wide Web) but also on a new communication protocol, or may be on a specific virtual space such as a metaverse.

The terminal device 7 is a computer device used by a user, and in one example, is a PC (Personal Computer). The terminal device 7 may be a smartphone, a mobile phone, or a tablet terminal device in another example. The terminal device 7 can execute an application program including at least a web browser, and may be any computer device as long as the device includes a display unit, an operation unit, and a communication unit. In this sense, for example, the terminal device 7 may be a television receiver, a car navigation system, a stationary game machine, a robot or the like.

The terminal device 7 causes a general-purpose computer to function as a terminal in the information distribution system 600 by executing a specific application program 7P (see FIG. 3). The terminal device 7 can also function as a terminal in the information distribution system 600 by logging in from the service login screen provided by the information distribution server device 6 using a general-purpose web browser program as well as the specific application program 7P.

The user of the terminal device 7 has, for example, at least one of accounts classified into three types of "Associates", "Operator", and "Individual". Depending on the division of account, different services can be received in the information exchange market.

The user A in FIG. 1 has an account in the “Associates” category. User A who has an "Associates" account has the right to transmit paid or free content to the information exchange market. Here, the paid content is content that can be acquired by the user classified as “business operator” or “individual” by paying the value (in-system currency L). On the other hand, free content is content that all users can obtain without paying any compensation. For example, free content distributes content such as articles to the public, provides value to other users (transfers the value), and receives an evaluation from other users, and the system currency L is Sent by user A who has an "Associates" account for the purpose of acquisition. In addition, the free content is transmitted by the user A who has an "Associates" account for the purpose of improving the purchase desire for paid content and increasing the number of purchase applicants. The "Associates" account is an account given when a user having an "Operator" or "Individual" account applies to a system administrator or the like and is licensed by the system administrator or the like. That is, a user having an "Associates" account has at least a "Business operator" or "Individual" account, and the acquired in-system currency L is an account of his / her "Business operator" or "Personal" as described later. It is possible to consume the in-system currency L by its own activity by transferring it to an account of “business operator” or “individual” and performing the first consumption activity and the second consumption activity described later.

The user B in FIG. 1 has an “operator” account, and the terminal device 7 can use the paid or free content transmitted by the user A. The usage here can be various modes such as browsing of content, viewing, and downloading to the terminal device 7. In the information exchange market, the user B who has the account of the “business operator” may be given not only the right to use free content but also the right to use paid content using the system currency L. The "consumer" account may be authorized to use the information exchange market more advantageously than other users by the first consumption activity described later. User B, who has an “Operator” account, has the right to transmit (system use behavior) for information not regarded as content in the information exchange market (information to be treated as described below) or the system currency L May be provided for a fee (first consumption activity described later).

The user C in FIG. 1 has an “individual” account, and the terminal device 7 can use the paid or free contents transmitted by the user A. In the information exchange market, the user C who has the “individual” account may be given not only the right to use free content but also the right to use paid content using the system currency L. The "individual" account may be authorized to use the information exchange market more advantageously than other users by the first consumption activity described later. User C who has an “individual” account, like user B, has the right to transmit information not considered content in the information exchange market either free of charge or paid using system currency L (the first consumption described later Activities) may be given.

The "business" account and the "individual" account are only distinguished depending on whether the attribute registered when the account is issued is "business" or "individual", and substantially the same. Usage rights may be given. On the other hand, depending on the type of the information exchange market, it may be preferable to clearly distinguish between the two, and different usage rights may be given between the "business" account and the "personal" account. For example, for a person who mainly conducts advertising (one of the first consumption activities described below, and sending out business-active information when the expression is changed), the "business" account is set and it is not considered as content You may give the right to send information and restrict the other usage rights. In addition, for individuals who wish to use mainly paid content (the second consumption activity described later), an “individual” account is set, and the right to use paid content using the system currency L is given, and others You may restrict the use authority of. Also, all accounts may be authorized to purchase the system currency L by assets in a virtual society or real society other than the information exchange market. In addition, users who only use free content sent from Associates do not necessarily need to acquire an "personal" account, and even if there are users who use free content without possessing an account. Good. Then, even when a user who does not possess an account or a user who does not perform login authentication acquires free content, the information distribution server device 6 evaluates the basis of calculation of the evaluation value to the account of "Associates" described later. You may do it.

In the information distribution system 600 in the first embodiment, the user A can transmit contents to the information exchange market via the terminal device 7 by the platform provided by the information distribution server device 6. The content transmitted by the user A is available from the terminal device 7 used by other users B and C in a virtual space where an information exchange market such as Web is formed. Specifically, for example, the transmitted content is selectively included as a link for acquiring the content in a specific web site. The website providing the content may be, for example, a portal site of the information exchange market, and an area such as an account page of the user of the caller provided in the website which is a virtual space in which this market is formed It may be the space of user A). In this sense, the information exchange market can also function as a content delivery system. The information exchange market may also function as an SNS capable of comment registration for content, user evaluation (like / dislike) and the like using the terminal device 7 when the user has an account.

Here, the contents transmitted from the user A having the “Associates” account are, for example, as follows, and are information mainly handled in the information exchange market. However, the present invention is not limited to the following four, and may be "all works that can be converted into data". It is not limited to this as long as the value is found from other users. The content transmitted from "Associates" may be free of charge, partially paid, or all paid. The distinction between chargeable or free of content and the amount of charge for charge may be arbitrarily set by the user A who has an “Associates” account.

(1) "Language data etc."
A journalist, a columnist, an essayist, or a critic, etc. (unspecified majority (sending method that does not limit the user attribute that can obtain information. The same applies to the following) or a specific target (sending method that limits the user attribute that can obtain information. The same below ) Text based work. Includes traditional news, blog posts, email newsletters, etc.

(2) "Video data etc."
Works such as moving image data for an unspecified number or specific subject, such as news, documentary, drama, entertainment, or commentary. It also includes moving image data created by a general user distributed by a conventional content distribution system.

(3) "Work data etc."
Unspecified number or specific, including articles, novels, scripts, cartoons, movies, books, photographs, music, choreography, design drawings, software, computer programs, or their secondary works or edited works. Work data for the target. It also includes work data distributed by conventional content distribution companies.

(4) "Beneficial information data, etc."
Useful information data sent by experts. Professional useful information data for an unspecified number or specific targets provided by specialists such as lawyers and other agents, career change agents such as career consultants, and consulting companies such as management consultants. It also includes useful information provided by a conventional expert question-and-answer system.

On the other hand, the information transmitted from the user B who has the account of "business company" or the user C who has the account of "individual" is, for example, the following, and information which is treated as subordinate in the information exchange market It is. The information is not limited to the following three, and may be added as appropriate, as long as it is “information that can be converted into data”.

(1) "Business information"
Information about an unspecified number or specific target such as company profile, business content, financial condition, employment information, guidance information, press release, or IR (Investor Relations), which does not correspond to the aforementioned copyrighted work or useful information Factual information. Includes information on businesses such as local governments, incorporated corporations, or NPO corporations.

(2) Profile Information
It corresponds to "business information" corresponding to the "personal" account. It includes personal profile information transmitted by the individual, such as activity zone information, activity time information, ability information, aptitude information, or guidance information. Here, the profile information is not limited to personal information that can identify individuals, but includes information that appeals about work aimed at obtaining offers from businesses or individuals, social contribution activities (volunteer activities), hobbies and the like.

(3) "Advertisement"
It is advertising information transmitted to an unspecified number or a specific target by a business owner and an individual. The target of the advertisement can be arbitrarily set by the sender, and includes, for example, information that leads to the caller's revenue. For example, when the object of appeal is an individual, information such as region (may be national), gender, generation, language used, occupation type, final education, and income level may be arbitrarily set as an attribute or as a premise. . In addition, information such as the time zone in which the terminal device 7 to which the appealing user logs in is communicating with the information distribution server device 6, the area, and the weather in that area may be acquired from the terminal device 7 and included in the setting information. . Also, as described above, depending on the type of the information exchange market, the authority may be set such that only the user B who has the “company” account can transmit the advertisement information.

In the information distribution system 600 in the first embodiment, when the user B or the user C uses the free content transmitted by the user A, the free content itself used by the information distribution server device 6 and the free content used User A who is the sender is evaluated. The information distribution server device 6 issues the in-system currency L to the account of the user A who is the content sender based on the evaluation.

The in-system currency L is consumed by the action (first consumption action) in which the user A who has an account of "Associates" uses the information exchange market more advantageously than other users. The first consumption activity is an act of transmitting advantageous information (information treated as a subordinate described above) in the interest of the user, an act of acquiring information desired in the interest of the user, an act of blocking unnecessary information. , Act of using desired content more advantageously. Here, the advantageous information includes advertising information, IR, company information and the like. Further, the act of using the desired content more advantageously includes, for example, an act of accessing the content prior to other users, an act of utilizing the content exclusively, and the like. Furthermore, the first consumption activity is the act of conducting a questionnaire using the information exchange market, the open question to the user who has an "Associates" account, the expansion of the amount of information to be transmitted, the issuance of a press release by the business operator, etc. May be included. The in-system currency L consumed by the first consumption activity disappears from the information exchange market. The intrasystem currency L differs from the legal currency, virtual currency, cryptocurrency or electronic currency called cryptosystem asset in that it disappears from the information exchange market. The in-system currency L also disappears according to an elapsed period after the user having each account acquires it.

The in-system currency L is consumed by the user B or C who has an account of "business person" or "individual", but the in-system currency L is a user A who has an "Associates" account. Is issued only against. In order to consume the intra-system currency L, the user A can not consume unless the information exchange market is used on the side of his "business person" or "personal" account. If the user B and the user C do not obtain the system currency L from the user A, the above-mentioned usage act (first consumption activity) is not possible. Therefore, the intra-system currency L enables transfer from the user A having an "Associates" account to the user B having an "Operator" account or the user C having an "Individual" account. The user B and the user C can consume the in-system currency L acquired from the user A, and can acquire the paid content transmitted from the user A, in addition to the above-described first consumption activity. The act of the user consuming the system currency L to acquire paid content is referred to as a second consumption activity. Note that in the second consumption activity, the attribution of the system currency L is only transferred from the "business operator" or the "individual" to the "associates", and the system currency L does not disappear from the information exchange market.

The intra-system currency L has a quantity defined in a predetermined unit (for example, as US dollar “$” or Japanese yen “¥”). The predetermined unit of the system currency L is not designed to have a value directly based on the legal currency. The predetermined unit is the setting information (price setting behavior) related to the first consumption activity of the information distribution server device 6 set by the system administrator or other means, and generation of the system currency L of the information distribution system 600 Adjusted by a control algorithm that controls issuance, distribution, and extinction. In-system currency L accepts the transfer of ownership between accounts that use in-system assets such as in-system currency, but exchange in-system currency, and therefore, between the real and virtual society information exchange markets. It also has a function as a value exchange medium. In this embodiment, with the function of the currency control unit 6C described later, the in-system currency L does not have an excessive or insufficient distribution amount in the information exchange market, and the exchange balance between the in-system currency L and non-system assets is Unit value is adjusted while controlling the amount of new issue to be maintained properly. As described later, the currency control unit 6C controls the currency L in the system so as to adjust the new supply balance of the currency L in the system reflecting the difference in the economic value of the free content by the purchasing power difference between the plurality of subject groups It may have a function to make corrections to In other words, the currency in the information exchange market is the system currency L, which is issued and distributed independently by the information distribution server device 6, and the currency in the real market (real society) is uniquely issued by the central bank and distributed. This is a virtual currency distributed in legal currency or other means, and the control of the intra-system currency L including exchange of these currencies is realized by the processing of each functional unit of the information distribution server device 6.

As described above, the in-system currency L does not have the function of storing the value scientifically regarded as a currency function, and is different from the conventional legal currency or a currency such as a virtual currency. The in-system currency L is used as a means of settlement for use of the information exchange market as an application, an exchange medium, and a means for sharing a measure of value among users. Furthermore, the in-system currency L is not stored in order to disappear according to the elapsed time since each user has acquired it, and it is eventually stored in the information distribution system 600 while being circulated from time to time. It disappears by consumption activity of 1. However, the in-system currency L is conventionally limited to a currency such as a legal currency or a virtual currency, and free exchange with other assets that are not in conventional points or electronic money is possible. Moreover, although the range of circulation of the system currency L is limited to the information exchange market, it functions as a means of payment among users in the market, and also functions as a measure of value between users, and information exchange The use value in the market is guaranteed. The in-system currency L functions as a unique value exchange medium in the user's information exchange market. Furthermore, the intrinsic value of the intra-system currency L is derived from the value of free content provided and acquired from other users of users participating in the information exchange market, and is quantified by the evaluation algorithm (valuation algorithm). Based on the amount of value transferred. From these things, the system internal currency L can also be expressed as "information value-oriented money" or "evaluation-oriented money" as money based on the value of information transferred between users in the information exchange market. In that sense, it can be said that the system currency L is a currency.

Furthermore, the quantity of the system currency L issued to the user A is not determined based only on the unambiguous calculation formula such as the number of times of use of the free content or a predetermined ratio with respect to the use time. The user B or user C to use is not determined by the subjectivity of the user each time it is used, but is determined by continuous processing of a plurality of functional units of the information distribution server device 6. In this respect, it is further different from the conventional point system and the compensation system in the content delivery system.

The in-system currency L is created in the information exchange market by a series of processes of each functional unit starting from the free content distribution of the user A having an "Associates" account. The in-system currency L created in the information exchange market starts distribution in the information exchange market by transfer from the user A to the user B having the "business operator" account or the user C having the "individual" account. For the transfer of the in-system currency L, assets outside the system can be targeted for exchange, and a system in which the user A who sends more useful free content can earn a profit is achieved, such as the users B and C The number of users also increases and the size of the information exchange market continues to expand. The information exchange market grows in the following manner.

(A) A user with an "Associates" account sends out paid or free content.
(B) The number of users with "business" or "individual" accounts increases for content.
(C) Users of "business operators" who want to transmit information such as advertisements to the increased users appear. When value is found in the content transmitted from "Associates", even if the content transmitted from "Associates" is paid, users of "Individuals" who wish to acquire the content appear. Thus, the first and second consumption activities increase.
(D) Due to the increase in the demand for the in-system currency L, the quantity for which the in-system currency L is issued to the user of "Associates" increases. That is, the amount of new issuance of the system currency L is adjusted by the processing of the functional unit of the information distribution server 6 based on the demand of the system currency L.
(E) The users of the "business operator" and the "individual" pay the compensation to the user of "associates" and receive the transfer of the system currency L. As a result, the user of "Associates" acquires the non-system asset by paying the compensation from the "business person" and the "individual" user.
(F) The user of the “business operator” consumes the transferred system currency L to transmit information (first consumption activity), whereby the system currency L disappears. The "individual" user consumes the transferred system currency L to acquire paid content of "associates" (second consumption activity), whereby the attribution of the system currency L is from "individual" to "Associates" Transfer to
(G) The user of "Associates" who has acquired the off-system asset further transmits valuable content.
(H) As the number of users increases and consumption increases, the supply amount of the system currency L to the information exchange market rises.
(I) A newly issued (supplied) in-system currency L is given to the user of "Associates".
(J) Return to (a).

The information exchange market may include a plurality of information exchange markets sorted according to the type of content to be transmitted and the business condition of the Associates. The information distribution server device 6 may operate by separating functions for different information exchange markets, or may have a function of mediating exchanges between different information exchange markets so that one account can operate in different information exchange markets. It may be possible to perform activities. Multiple markets may overlap with each other. In addition, the function of the account as “Associates” is given by the system administrator for each information exchange market. If a user who has an "Associates" account in one information exchange market wishes to act as a user who has an "Associates" account even in a different information exchange market, the underlying "Operator" or "Individual" In the account of, the application for permission of activity as “Associates” may be applied to the system administrator in the different information exchange market, and the application may be permitted.

In order to realize such an information exchange market, the information distribution server device 6 functions as a management unit 6A, a currency issuing unit 6B, a currency control unit 6C, a transaction processing unit 6D, and a value interlocking unit 6E as shown in FIG. Do. Each function may be implemented by separate server computers, and may operate as the information distribution server device 6 as a set.

Furthermore, the management unit 6A, the currency issuing unit 6B, the currency control unit 6C, and the transaction processing unit 6D each have the functions shown in FIG. Specifically, the management unit 6A includes a use request receiving unit 601, an acquisition request receiving unit 602, a consumption recording unit 603, a first transfer recording unit 604, and a second transfer recording unit 605. In addition, the currency issuing unit 6B includes a calculating unit 606 and a determining unit 607. Further, the currency control unit 6C includes a value control unit 608, a correction unit 609, an evaluation correction unit 610, a consumption amount determination unit 611, and an update reception unit 612. Further, the transaction processing unit 6D includes a trade reception unit 613 and an exchange reception unit 614. Details of each function will be described later.

The management unit 6A controls the overall functions, issues an account issuance procedure, accepts transmission of content, accepts usage of content, and the like. In the account issuance procedure, the management unit 6A executes data processing in the database storing the attribute information of the user in association with the account of the user. For example, the management unit 6A is communicably connected in advance to the terminal device 7 used by the user A who has an account of "business operator", and the management unit 6A is connected from the terminal device 7 used by the user A to the information exchange market. When a request for issuing an "Associates" account is received, the "Associates" account in the information exchange market is issued to the user A, on the condition that the user A sets some collateral. Here, the collateral may be an asset (money) based on a legal currency or a virtual currency, or may be a credential or the like that secures the usefulness of the information of the content. With regard to the issuance of the account of the “business operator”, conditions may be set such that there are more registration items than “individual”. It should be noted that the issuance of “business person” and “individual” accounts may not be conditional on the setting of collateral by the management unit 6A.

The currency issuing unit 6B is communicably connected to the terminal device 7 used by the user A. The currency issuing unit 6B may be communicably connected to a terminal device used by a system administrator. The currency issuing unit 6B calculates the free content transmitted from the user A and the calculating unit 606 for calculating the evaluation value for the user A, and the quantity of the system currency L to be issued to the user A based on the calculated evaluation value. And a determination unit 607 that determines the Here, the evaluation value calculated by the calculation unit 606 is based on the usefulness of the free content in the information exchange market. The currency issuing unit 6B issues the system currency L to the user A according to the determined quantity. Since the issue amount of the system internal currency L is determined based on the free content transmitted from the user A and the evaluation value for the user A, the basis of the economic value necessary for passing the information exchange market is the free content and the user A It can be said that it is the economic value based on the evaluation value for. Further, the issuance amount of the system currency L may be determined based on the demand of the system currency L in the information exchange market, and the system currency L may be maintained at a fixed unit price (value as a unit). At this time, the currency issuing unit 6B newly issues (supplies) the in-system currency L based on the size of the market, the balance between the demand and supply of the in-system currency L, and the like.

The currency control unit 6C exhibits a function of changing the value of the system currency L. The currency control unit 6C adjusts and controls the supply amount of the system currency L from the currency issuing unit 6B to the information exchange market. Further, the currency control unit 6C may autonomously adjust the exchange ratio at the time of exchange between the system currency L and the other assets in the transaction processing unit 6D in order to adjust the supply. In addition, the currency control unit 6C may perform adjustment so as to absorb the difference in purchasing power between the subject groups. The function of the currency control unit 6C may be exhibited autonomously, or in particular, may be manually executed via a terminal device used by a system administrator of the information exchange market.

Transaction processing unit 6D processes transactions of intra-system currency L between users. The transaction processing unit 6D functions as an exchange of the system currency L in the information exchange market. As one of the intra-system currency L transactions among users, exchange with non-system assets such as legal currency or virtual currency, cryptocurrency or electronic currency called cryptosystem asset is enabled.

The value interlocking unit 6E exhibits a function of accepting exchange between the system internal currency L held by the user having the “Associates” account and the digital asset distributed outside the system. In this embodiment, the value interlocking unit 6E can exchange the value of the system currency L with a specific virtual currency which is an example of a digital asset, and the function of storing the value of the system currency L can be realized. It will be possible to substitute by a specific virtual currency.

Although only one information exchange market is shown in FIG. 1 for the sake of space, a plurality of information exchange markets are selected according to the type of content to be transmitted (for example, television media type content, job type content, etc.). You may provide. In this case, the information distribution server device 6 may be provided for each information exchange market, or one information distribution server device 6 may be provided to collectively control and manage a plurality of information exchange markets. When multiple information exchange markets are established, a user having an "Associates" account belonging to one information exchange market can be used to make an "Operator" or "Individual" or "Associates" account belonging to another information exchange market. The in-system currency L may be transferred to the user who has it.
Furthermore, a group of metaverses (multilayered information exchange market) covering the whole world or a plurality of principal groups (for example, a group of regional attributes of users such as an economic zone, a state, a state or a prefecture, etc.) by the information distribution server device 6 The system may be configured to control and manage a virtual market (a virtual state such as a virtual state that generates and distributes its own currency). In the metaverse, there is no concept of “distance” that exists in the real market, and this does not incur the costs of “distribution and movement” that are in the real market. Users participating in the metaverse are preferably free to perform activities, including production activities, without being tied to distance (ie cost and belonging state). Users participating in the metaverse use an information processing terminal device such as a personal computer, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a television receiver, or a VR (Virtual Reality) dedicated device including a game machine connected to a network in the real market as a user interface By doing so, anyone can log in to the metaverse and perform activities anytime, anywhere, through account authentication. As described above, a user who does not possess an account or a user who does not perform login authentication processing may also participate in the metaverse.

A specific configuration for realizing the information distribution system 600 as described above will be described below.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the internal configuration of the information distribution server device 6 and the terminal device 7. The information distribution server device 6 includes a control unit 60, a storage unit 61, and a communication unit 62 using a server computer. In the first embodiment, the information distribution server device 6 has separate hardware for each function of the management unit 6A, the currency issuing unit 6B, the currency control unit 6C, the transaction processing unit 6D, and the value interlocking unit 6E described above. Is preferred. However, in the following description, it is assumed that an instance having each function is generated virtually by one server computer and each performs processing.

The control unit 60 is a processor using a central processing unit (CPU) or a graphics processing unit (GPU), and uses a memory such as a read only memory (ROM) and a random access memory (RAM) incorporated therein. Control and execute processing. Specifically, the control unit 60 configures, for example, a management unit 6A, a currency issuing unit 6B, a currency control unit 6C, a transaction processing unit 6D, and a value interlocking unit 6E shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. The control unit 60 executes information processing based on the server program 6P stored in the storage unit 61. The server program 6P includes a web server program, and the control unit 60 functions as a web server that executes provision of a web page that is a portal site of the information exchange market to the terminal device 7, acceptance of login to a web service, etc. Do.

The storage unit 61 uses, for example, a non-volatile memory such as a hard disk or a flash memory. The storage unit 61 stores the above-described server program 6P and various types of information to which the control unit 60 refers.

The communication unit 62 is an interface for realizing communication via the network N, and uses, for example, a communication interface such as Ethernet (registered trademark) or a wireless communication antenna. The control unit 60 can communicate with the terminal device 7 via the communication unit 62.

The information distribution server device 6 can read / write information from / to the storage device 63 storing the account information of the user of the information exchange market to be provided by the function of the management unit 6A. The control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6 performs addition / deletion of account information, update / readout of account information and the like to the storage device 63. The control unit 60 associates the content data including the transmitted content data and the identification information with each other, and stores the content information in the storage device 63. The identification information of the content includes not only information identifying the content but also information identifying paid or free. The control unit 60 stores, in the storage device 63, an accounting record that records to which user the intra-system currency L belongs, which user has transferred it to another user, and the like. In addition to this, the control unit 60 stores, in the storage device 63, "information to be treated as slave" (sub-content information) transmitted from a user of "business operator" or "individual".

FIG. 4 is a conceptual diagram showing an example of the in-system currency management table showing the accounting record of the in-system currency L. As shown in FIG. In the example illustrated in FIG. 4, for example, the currency ID, the acquirer ID, the acquisition date, and the expected date of extinction are associated and recorded in the in-system currency management table. The currency ID is information for identifying each in-system currency L. The control unit 60 assigns an individual currency ID to the in-system currency L of a predetermined unit (for example, the smallest unit) each time the currency issuing unit 6B issues the in-system currency L, and manages the assigned currency ID in-system currency. Record on the table. The acquirer ID is information for identifying an acquirer of the in-system currency L. When the currency L in the system is issued from the currency issuing portion 6B to the user having the “Associates” account, the control portion 60 associates the issued user with the issued currency ID of the in-system currency L. Record the acquisition ID to identify in the in-system currency management table. The acquisition date represents the date when the user acquired the system internal currency. For example, when in-system currency L is issued from the currency issuing unit 6B to a user having an “Associates” account, the control unit 60 uses the date when the in-system currency L is issued as the acquisition date of the user. Record in management table. The expected disappearance date represents a date on which the system currency L disappears. In the present embodiment, the intra-system currency L is configured to disappear if the setting period has elapsed without using the intra-system currency L after the user acquires the intra-system currency L. The setting period can be set according to the user. For example, 1 year for users with "Associates" account, 6 months for users with "Operator" account, 3 months for users with "Individual" account It can be set. Further, the set period of time in which the system currency L disappears can be set according to the acquisition history of the system currency L. For example, for users with "Associates" account, 1 year for new issue, 1 year for payment of paid content, 6 months for transfer from other associates, 6 months for recovery from transferee at default , And other campaigns can be set as 3 months and so on. In addition, for users having "business" and "individual" accounts, the transfer from Associates may be set to six months, the basic income may be set to two months, and other campaigns may be set to three months. The above-mentioned campaign is the issuance of government banknotes as in the real world, Keynesian policy, etc., and the system currency L of the system L as a temporary and policy supply of currency for the purpose of activating the market. Means a benefit.

Also, the intra-system currency L enables transfer from a user with an "Associates" account to a user with an "Operator" account or a user with an "Individual" account. The in-system currency control table is appropriately rewritten according to the transfer of the in-system currency L. For example, when the intra-system currency L of the currency ID "L001" is transferred from the user (associates) of the acquirer ID "U001" to the user (individual) of the acquirer ID "U021" on August 1, 2018, The items of the acquirer ID and the acquisition date associated with the currency ID "L001" are rewritten as "U021" and "2012.08.01", respectively. In addition, when the disappearance period for an individual is set to 3 months, the estimated deletion date is rewritten as "2017.11.01."
In the present embodiment, one user may have a plurality of accounts. For example, as described above, a user who has an "Associates" account has at least an "Operator" or "Individual" account. Therefore, in the in-system currency management table, the information of the currency ID of the intra-system currency L, the acquisition date, and the estimated date of destruction is not only the acquirer ID identifying the acquirer, but an account owned by the acquirer. It may be configured to be recorded in association with the ID of. Then, in this case, for example, when the user having the same acquirer ID simultaneously has “Associates” and “Operator” accounts, the intra-system currency L is mainly for each account ID. It is preferable if they are managed in association with each other. That is, a "passbook function" as in the conventional online bank system based on the accounting record recorded in the in-system currency management table may be controlled in association with the account. The "passbook function" described above is displayed on the display unit 73 of the user's terminal device 7 for each account, receives an operation from the user having the account by the operation unit 74, and communicates with the information distribution server device 6 by the communication unit 72. By doing this, the accounting record recorded in the in-system currency management table may be read, rewritten, or added. The “passbook function” described above may function in cooperation with the transaction processing unit 6D.

Also, the in-system currency L consumed by the first consumption activity disappears from the information exchange market. In this case, the record of the extant in-system currency L is deleted from the in-system currency control table.

In the present embodiment, the record of the in-system currency management table is rewritten according to the transfer or disappearance of the in-system currency L, but the history from issuance to transfer and disappearance of each in-system currency L is You may leave it as a record. Further, in the present embodiment, in the system internal currency management table, the currency ID, the acquirer ID, the acquisition date, and the estimated due date are associated and recorded, but the breakdown of use (for example, transfer to another user , The first consumption activity and the second consumption activity) may be recorded together. In the in-system currency management table, the priority order of the currency ID for transferring or deleting the in-system currency L from one acquirer ID (or account ID) to another acquirer ID (or other account ID) is The same acquirer ID (or account ID) may be taken from a currency ID in which the expiration date is near.

The terminal device 7 is a computer device such as a personal computer, a smartphone, or a tablet terminal device used by the user as described above, and includes a control unit 70, a storage unit 71, a communication unit 72, a display unit 73, and an operation unit 74.

The control unit 70 uses a processor such as a CPU and a GPU, a memory, and the like. The control unit 70 may be configured as one hardware (SoC: System On a Chip) in which the processor, the memory, the storage unit 71, and the communication unit 72 are integrated. The control unit 70 executes communication connection to the information distribution server device 6 based on the application program 7P stored in the storage unit 71, and via the Web page in the information exchange market provided by the information distribution server device 6. Execute the process

The storage unit 71 uses a flash memory, and stores programs and data referred to by the control unit 70 including the application program 7P. The application program 7P includes at least a web browser program, and the control unit 70 causes the display unit 73 to display a screen based on the information of the web page provided by the information distribution server device 7 based on the application program 7P. In addition, the storage unit 71 may have an in-system currency management table indicating accounting records of the in-system currency L associated with the user's account. In the in-system currency table of the terminal device 7, for example, the currency ID of the in-system currency L, the acquisition date, and the expected disappearance date are associated and recorded.

The communication unit 72 is a communication module that implements communication connection to the network N. The communication unit 72 uses a network card, a wireless communication device or a module for carrier communication.

The display unit 73 uses a display device such as a liquid crystal panel or an organic EL display. The operation unit 74 is an interface for receiving user's operation, and uses a physical button, a touch panel device with a built-in display, a speaker, a microphone, and the like. The operation unit 74 may receive an operation on a screen displayed on the display unit 73 by a physical button or a touch panel, or the microphone recognizes an operation content from an input sound and interacts with the sound output from a speaker The operation may be accepted in a form.

The display unit 73 and the operation unit 74 are not limited to the modes described above. For example, the operation unit 74 may use a controller module such as a joystick of a game machine. The device may be a wearable device that receives an operation according to the user's movement, and various input / output devices such as gloves, suits, shoes, and goggles can be used.

The functions realized by the information distribution server device 6 in the information distribution system 600 configured as described above will be described in order.

First, the function of the management unit 6A will be described. The control unit 60 receives the content registration request transmitted from the terminal device 7 used by the user having the “Associates” account by the function of the management unit 6A. The control unit 60 causes an interface that accepts content registration to be displayed on a screen displayed on the website or the terminal device 7 only for a user who has an “Associates” account. The control unit 60 adds content identification information to the received content and stores the content identification information in the storage device 63. The control unit 60 stores the content identification information, the account information of the user who is the sender, and the time information including the registration date of the content in the storage device 63 in association with each other. In the case where the use of content browsing, viewing, and the like is paid, it is preferable that the quantity of in-system currency L determined by the user who is the sender is stored in association. This quantity can be changed ex post. The control unit 60 presents a web site including access to the content, which enables the use of the content.

When the content is used from the terminal device 7 used by the user having the "business operator" or "individual" account by the function of the management unit 6A, the control unit 60 uses the content history including the usage count etc. Are stored in the storage device 63 in association with Further, the control unit 60 stores, in the storage device 63, a usage history including what kind of content each user has used and at what timing in association with the user's account information by the function of the management unit 6A.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing procedure of the control unit 60 as the management unit 6A. The control unit 60, as the management unit 6A, executes the following processing once a day, once a week, once a month, etc. according to a predetermined cycle.

The control unit 60 selects the user of "associates" based on the account information stored in the storage device 63 (step S101).

The control unit 60 calculates an evaluation value for the content of the selected user or the user itself (step S102), and determines the quantity of the corresponding intra-system currency L based on the evaluation value calculated for the user under selection (step S102) S103).

The control unit 60 issues the in-system currency L according to the quantity determined in step S103 to the user currently selected (step S104). In step S104, the control unit 60 stores the currency ID identifying the newly issued in-system currency L in the in-system currency management table in association with the account information (for example, acquirer ID) of the currently selected user. Here, the currency ID of the in-system currency L is the in-system currency management together with the acquisition date when the in-system currency L is acquired by the user (ie, the issue date of the in-system currency L) and the date when the in-system currency L disappears. It is stored in the table.

The control unit 60 determines whether or not all the users of "associates" who transmit the content have been selected (step S105), and when not selected (S105: NO), returns the process to step S101. If it is determined in step S105 that all the items have been selected (S105: YES), the control unit 60 ends the process.

The processes of steps S102 and S103 will be described. The control unit 60 stores the calculation method of the evaluation value based on the usage history of the content as the first setting information in the storage unit 61 or the storage device 63, and the control unit 60 evaluates based on the first setting information. Calculate the value.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of the evaluation value calculation procedure. The processing procedure illustrated in the flowchart of FIG. 6 corresponds to the details of the process of step S102 in the flowchart of FIG. Note that the calculation procedure of the evaluation value based on the flowchart of FIG. 6 is merely an example, and is not limited to the procedure shown in the flowchart of FIG.

The control unit 60 refers to the content identification information to which the account information of the user of “associates” being selected is associated, and selects one free content transmitted by the user (step S201).

The control unit 60 calculates the “number evaluation value” for the selected free content (step S202). The “count evaluation value” is calculated based on the number of users used in a predetermined period, for example, a period from the previous calculation time point to the current calculation time point. The number of users may be a total number or may be distinguished by account information. For example, the control unit 60 calculates the “count evaluation value” as follows.
"Number of times evaluation value" = number of times used x x 1 + number of times used x x 2 x (number of times used / total number of times used) + x 3
Where x1: user number coefficient (setting information)
x2: Coefficient when evaluating based on the ratio to the total number of times of use (setting information)
x3: Evaluation value for the top users (setting information)
The "number of times of use" is the number of times in a predetermined period, and the "total number of times of use" is the total number of times from the time when the content is registered to the time of this calculation. "Number of times of use" is a value counted by the number of times of access to the link specifying the content, including the number of times of access to the Web page containing the content, the number of downloads of Portable Document Format (PDF), the number of times of playback of moving images, etc. .

The control unit 60 calculates a "time evaluation value" (step S203). The “time evaluation value” is calculated based on the time when the user uses the target content in a predetermined period. For example, the control unit 60 calculates the "time evaluation value" as follows.
“Time evaluation value” = use time × y1 + use time × y2 × (use time / total use time) + y3
Where y1: time coefficient (setting information)
y2: Coefficient when evaluating based on the ratio to total usage time (setting information)
y3: Evaluation value for upper use time (setting information)
The “use time” is a time in a predetermined period, and the “total use time” is a total time from the time when the content is registered to the present calculation time. The “use time” is a time during which content is viewed on the terminal device 7 of the user, and includes the display time of a web page including the content, the display time of the PDF, the reproduction time of the moving image, and the like.

The control unit 60 calculates a "user evaluation value" (step S204). The “user evaluation value” is calculated based on the evaluation content (the number of evaluations) in which the user evaluated the target content in a predetermined period. The evaluation number is the difference between the number of "Like" for the content and the number of "Dislike" in reverse, and is the total number of the given *. For example, the control unit 60 calculates the “user evaluation value” as follows.
"User evaluation value" = evaluation number x z1 + evaluation number x z2 x (number of evaluations / total number of evaluations) + z3
Where z1: evaluation number coefficient (setting information)
z2: Coefficient when evaluating with the ratio to the total evaluation number (setting information)
z3: Evaluation value for top evaluation numbers (setting information)
"Evaluation number" is the number of evaluations in a predetermined period, and "total evaluation number" is the total of the number of evaluations from the time when content is registered to the time of this calculation.

The control unit 60 calculates an evaluation value based on another index for which the evaluation is recognized (step S205). In step S205, the control unit 60 adds, for example, when it is a long seller that is used as a content for a predetermined period or more. The other control unit 60 may add the evaluation value based on the fact that, for example, an evaluation by a well-known critic is given or an award is given.

The control unit 60 integrates the evaluation values calculated from step S202 to step S205 to calculate a content evaluation value (step S206). In step S206, for example, the control unit 60 adds up the evaluation values.

The control unit 60 determines whether or not the process has been performed on all the contents of the selected "associates" (step S207). If it is determined that the process has not been performed for all (S207: NO), the control unit 60 returns the process to step S201.

If it is determined that processing has been performed for all (S207: YES), the control unit 60 calculates a sum value obtained by adding up the content evaluation values calculated for all the contents (step S208).

The control unit 60 calculates a "transmission amount evaluation value" (step S209). The “transmission amount evaluation value” is calculated based on the number of transmissions of the content transmitted by the user of “Associates” selected during a predetermined period and the internal capacity (the number of text, time, etc.). For example, the control unit 60 calculates the “transmission amount evaluation value” as follows.
“Delivery amount evaluation value” = Dialing amount × w1 + Dialing amount × w2 × (Dialing amount / total dispatching amount) + w3
Where w1: transmission amount coefficient (setting information)
w2: A coefficient (setting information) when evaluating with the ratio to the total transmission volume
w3: Evaluation value for upper sending volume (setting information)
The “amount of transmission” is the amount of transmission of content provided free of charge in a predetermined period. The “amount of transmission” is a product of the number of contents transmitted and the content size. The "total transmission amount" is the total of the multiplication value of the "number of transmissions and the internal capacity" from the time when the user of "associates" first registers the content to the present calculation time.

The control unit 60 calculates an “overall evaluation value” in which the content evaluation value and the Associates evaluation value are integrated (step S210), and ends the process. In step S210, the control unit 60 may calculate the "overall evaluation value" by adding the content evaluation value and the associated evaluation value.

The control unit 60 determines the issued quantity of the intra-system currency L based on the calculated evaluation value and the second setting information stored in the storage unit 61 or the storage device 63. The second setting information is, for example, a ratio to an evaluation value. Furthermore, the second setting information is newly issued, for example, to all the associates that the information distribution server device 6 autonomously derives from the demand of the system currency L in the information exchange market, or arbitrarily set by the system administrator. It may be the total issue volume, that is, the additional total volume of the system currency L additionally supplied to the information exchange market. In this case, the newly issued total amount (additional supplied total amount) of the system currency L which is derived or set arbitrarily may be the quantity of the predetermined period which is derived or set arbitrarily.

The first setting information and the second setting information can be changed and updated as appropriate. When the control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6 receives a change, an update, a registration, and the like via a terminal device used by the system administrator, it is possible to correct the market intended by the system administrator. That is, the control unit 60 functions as an update accepting unit 612 that accepts the update of the first setting information and the second setting information. However, it is preferable that the market itself is designed to update the configuration information to grow the market autonomously, not to reflect the intention of the system administrator. That is, the control unit 60 may function as a correction unit 609 that corrects the first setting information and the second setting information in accordance with the usage condition of the content.

Next, the consumption of the in-system currency L given to the user having the “Associates” account will be described. In the case where there is a user having only the “Associates” account, as described above, the system currency L acquired based on the content transmission can not be consumed by the action of the same user (the same user). A user with an "Associates" account transfers the acquired in-system currency L to the "Operator" or "Individual" or "Associates" account owned by another user, or on the basis of his "Associates" account. Can be transferred to a certain "business" or "individual" account.

A management including transfer of the system currency L of a user who has an “Associates” account in the terminal device 7 will be described. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an example of the procedure of management of the system currency L in the terminal device 7. When login to the information distribution system 600 is performed by the terminal device 7, the control unit 70 starts the following processing based on the exchange of information with the information distribution server device 6.

Control unit 70 transmits the content to the information exchange market through communication unit 72 (transmission unit) (step S600). With the transmission of the content, the information distribution server device 6 evaluates the content (free content) and the sender (associates), and based on the evaluation result, the system currency L is issued to the sender.

The control unit 70 transmits the account information of the user stored in the storage unit 71 from the communication unit 72 to the information distribution server device 6 (step S601). Control unit 70 causes communication unit 72 (reception unit) to receive screen information including information such as the quantity of in-system currency L associated with the account information transmitted from information distribution server device 6 (step S602).

Based on the received screen information, control unit 70 causes display unit 73 to display a screen including the quantity of in-system currency L issued for the account information of the user (step S603). As a result, a user having an "Associates" account can grasp the amount of in-system currency L given for his content transmission activity. The screen information includes detailed information indicating when the system internal currency L was issued to which content, based on what evaluation value, and the display of the detailed information is performed by the operation unit 74. This should be displayed when selected in.

Control unit 70 is a screen for accepting transfer (sell) to user having account of other "business operator" or "individual" in system L regarding the system currency L including the displayed quantity. Is displayed (step S604). Control unit 70 determines whether or not the screen for accepting transfer has been selected (step S605), and when it is determined that it has been selected (S605: YES), accepts the quantity to be assigned (step S606), based on the accepted quantity Transaction information is created (step S 607). The control unit 70 transmits the created transaction information to the transaction processing unit 6D of the information distribution server device 6 (step S608). When the transaction information transmitted from the terminal device 7 is received, the control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6 updates the recorded contents of the in-system currency management table.

The control unit 70 determines whether or not the login to the portal site of the application program 7P or the information distribution server device 6 is to be ended (step S609), and when it is determined not to be ended (S609: NO), the process is performed Return to S602. If it is determined in step S609 that the application program 7P or login is to be ended (S609: YES), the process is ended.

If it is determined in step S605 that no selection has been made (S605: NO), the control unit 70 advances the process to step S609. Also in this case, the control unit 70 ends the process when the application program 7P or the end of login is selected.

The transaction information includes designation of account information of "business person" or "individual" or "associates" of the transferee user. Transfer of the system currency L is based on free trade and direct trading in the real world. Therefore, the quantity of in-system currency L to be transferred is directly negotiated with the user among the users. The consideration may be a legal currency or may be an asset such as a virtual currency, payment of debt, provision of goods or services, or a bond.

FIG. 8 is a view showing an example of a screen displayed on the terminal device 7. FIG. 8 shows an example of a screen displayed based on the screen information in step S603 in the processing procedure shown in the flowchart of FIG. As shown in FIG. 8, on the confirmation screen 730 of the intra-system currency L displayed on the display unit 73 of the terminal device 7, the system is issued to the user “AA” having the “Associates” account and remains A quantity screen 731 including the quantity “5500” of the currency L is included. The quantity screen 731 includes an interface for displaying detailed information on the process of acquiring the in-system currency L of the user “AA”. The confirmation screen 730 of the intra-system currency L shown in FIG. 8 includes a transfer acceptance screen 732 corresponding to step S604. The transfer acceptance screen 732 includes a control for selecting a quantity to be transferred and a transfer destination, and an interface 733 for instructing transfer. Further, the confirmation screen 730 of the system currency L includes an interface for returning to the portal site.

In this case, based on the transaction information transmitted from the terminal device 7, the control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6 determines from the account information of the user of "associates" of the transfer source as "business operator" or "individual" or Transfers the system currency L to the account information of the "Associates" user. The determination of the compensation for the transfer at this time may be determined by free trading outside the system, and the information distribution server device 6 functions as a exchange at the transaction processing unit 6D as described in the following flowchart. It may be realized.

FIG. 9 is a flow chart showing an example of the procedure of transfer processing of the system currency L in the information distribution server device 6.

The control unit 60 causes the communication unit 62 to receive transaction information from the terminal device 7 used by the user of the account of “Associates” in association with the account information (step S701).

The control unit 60 determines whether the received transaction information includes information indicating the user of the transferee (step S702), and when it is determined that it is included (S702: YES), the transferee's The account information of the user is specified (step S703).

The control unit 60 transfers the in-system currency L associated with the transfer source account information to the transfer destination account information by the number included in the transaction information (step S704). Specifically, the control unit 60 controls the acquirer ID of the in-system currency L by the amount included in the transaction information among the in-system currency L owned by the transfer source user (associates). Execute processing to rewrite the ID to the ID of the transfer destination user. Further, the control unit 60 additionally executes a process of rewriting the estimated date of disappearance of the system currency L according to the user of the transferee. In step S704, so-called block chain technology may be used to record the fact of transfer in the information exchange market in the accounting record in the storage device 63.

The control unit 60 uses the function of the transaction processing unit 6D to collect a fee of a predetermined amount from the asset associated with the account information of "associates" at the time of processing for registration of transfer in step S704 (step S705). ). Assets may be collected from digital assets such as crypto assets or registrations in legal currency at the time of registration of Associates account, and may be collected from these, as described later, credit limit for each Associates account You may process the accounts receivable after the amount is fixed. Also, both of them may be performed. When the accounts receivable processing is performed, the calculation of the credit limit for each “Associates” account may be left to the processing of the control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6. Further, the amount of the fee to be collected from the asset associated with the “Associates” account information may be arbitrary setting information of 0 (zero) or more stored in advance in the storage unit 61. Specifically, at step S705, the control unit 60 reduces the fee by the amount corresponding to the asset recorded in association with the transfer source account information by the function of the transaction processing unit 6D, and records it in advance for the system administrator. Add only the collected fee to the asset to be recorded in association with the prepared account information and record. Further, in the case where the fee is collected by the digital asset including the above-described specific virtual currency, the control unit 60 may execute a process of transferring the reduced digital asset to the account of the system administrator.

At step S701, the control unit 60 receives the screen information including information such as the quantity of the system currency L associated with the account information of the transferee “associates” after transfer and collection of the fee in step S701. It transmits to the terminal device 7 of the transmission origin of (step S706), and a process is complete | finished.

If it is determined in step S702 that the transferee user is not included (S702: NO), the control unit 60 includes the transaction information in the transaction information by the function of the exchange included in the transaction processing unit 6D. It receives as a sales order of the system internal currency L for the quantity which is made (step S707). That is, the control unit 60 functions as the purchase and reception unit 613.

The control unit 60 accepts the purchase order from the users of all the accounts including “Associates” by the function of the exchange (step S 708). In step S 708, the control unit 60 separately accepts registration of a currency such as legal currency or virtual currency, which is an asset outside the system, or a physical asset as a deposit asset as a purchase order. The control unit 60 may request an external asset transaction system to subtract processing from the custody asset when the transaction is established. The registration of the credit card number may be accepted, and the credit card management company may be charged. When the payment is delayed, the control unit 60 performs, as the management unit 6A, a measure such as restricting the later-described use act of the user's information exchange market including “Associates”.

The control unit 60 extracts a buying order to be assigned to the selling order received in step S 707 (step S 709), and completes the transaction (step S 710). In step S 710, the control unit 60 determines the acquirer ID of the system currency L from the ID of the user of the transfer source, for the quantity included in the transaction information among the system currency L owned by the transfer source user. Execute processing to rewrite to user ID. Further, the control unit 60 additionally executes a process of rewriting the estimated date of disappearance of the system currency L according to the user of the transferee. That is, the control unit 60 functions as the second transfer recording unit 605. Also at the time of the transaction in step S710, the control unit 60 collects a fee of a predetermined amount from the asset associated with the account information of "associates" (step S711). The fees collected in steps S705 and S711 may be the same amount or different amounts. For example, the fee collected from the user with the “Associates” account when the transfer is established by the function of the exchange in step S711 is more expensive than the case where the direct transaction outside the exchange in step S705 is established. It may be or vice versa. In addition, the asset may receive registration of a digital asset such as a cryptographic asset or a deposit in the legal currency at the time of registration of the “Associates” account, and the control unit 60 may collect the digital asset or the legal currency. That is, the control unit 60 may function as the exchange receiving unit 614. Further, the fee to be collected may be the system currency L. In this case, the ID of the system administrator is prepared, and the acquirer ID of the system currency L for the reduction (collection) is the ID of the system administrator from the ID of the collection destination (the account of the Associates who should pay the fee). It is sufficient to execute the process of rewriting to.

The control unit 60 transmits the screen information including the information such as the quantity of the system currency L associated with the account information of the "associates" of the transfer source of the transaction establishment in step S701. It transmits to the apparatus 7 (S706), and a process is complete | finished.

As a result, the user of the account of “Associates” can obtain revenue from assets such as legal currency or virtual currency based on the in-system currency L acquired based on the content transmission. If the content originator earns a profit, the content originator can be motivated to issue further content because the profit from the objective and legitimate evaluation can be expected thereafter and the information exchange market can be activated.

And by this transfer registration, a user who has an account other than "Associates" such as "Business Operator" or "Individual", and a user who has an "Associates" account also desires the system currency L additionally Can acquire this by registering the transfer of the system currency L. The terminal device 7 used by the user having the “business operator” or “individual” account is also associated with the account information of step S603 in the processing procedure shown in the flowchart of FIG. 7 based on the application program 7P. Process up to the screen display including the quantity of the currency L in the system. Even on the terminal device 7 used by the user having the “business operator” or “individual” account, the portal site of the information exchange market is displayed, and the transfer as shown in FIG. A screen for confirming the quantity of system internal currency L received and owned is displayed.

As shown in steps S707 to S710, the information distribution server device 6 functions as a exchange by means of the transaction processing unit 6D, and can promote the transfer of the system currency L between users. However, as described above, since all the system currency L have an expiration date, it makes it difficult for the user to buy and sell for investment or speculative purposes and to operate the information exchange market. A user who has an "Associates" account transfers it for the purpose of exchanging the system currency L for another asset, that is, for the purpose of acquiring an asset in the real world. A user who has an "enterprise" or "individual" account receives the transfer of the system internal currency L for the purpose of exchanging the owned assets into the system internal currency L of the information exchange market, that is, the purpose of using the information exchange market. It is difficult to think of trading for investment or speculative purposes, such as establishing a very simple purpose trading, holding the currency L in the system and warming it up for profit. In addition, in the system currency L, in order to improve the function as another currency, the "value retention function", which is conventionally considered to be one of the functions of the currency, is eliminated by the "setting of the expiration date". I have something to do. From this, the in-system currency L provides a function as a currency as an integrated system with assets such as legal currency and virtual currency to be exchanged. That is, for the user using the information exchange market, the surplus system currency L is exchanged for other assets such as legal currency, while the shortage of system currency L is surplus legal currency. Etc. may be exchanged for other assets. The in-system currency L is different from the conventional currency in that it does not have the asset function of "holding value".

As stated above, the transfer between the "Associates" account and the "Operator" or "Individual" account may be charged a higher fee compared to the direct transaction. This fee is a bond to "Associates" for the system administrator. It is good to operate the upper limit value of the price using a different value for each "associates". That is, it corresponds to the credit limit mentioned above. It can be said that it evaluates the user's service usage behavior and increases or decreases the credit line of "Associates". This increase or decrease in the credit limit may be related to the display priority of the content originating from the individual "Associates" account, or the setting information is updated such that more in-system currency L is issued. You may do so. It may also be related to the amount of incentives from the system administrator.

In the function as an exchange, it may be possible to trade in-system currency L between accounts of "associates". Further, as in the case of ordinary transfer, it is also possible for users having "Associates" accounts to be able to directly trade in the system currency L (exchange trade) without passing through the exchange. For a certain "Associates" account, there may be an "Operator" account that can purchase a large amount of system currency L in a real-world transaction. In this case, there is a possibility that the issuance of the in-system currency L enough to satisfy the demand from the "business agent" account can not be received only with a certain "Associates" account. In this case, it is possible to collect in-system currency L from the user of another "Associates" account to meet the demand from this "Operator" account. In this case, the user of the "business operator" account can also directly trade with the trustable "Associates" account without trading on the exchange with an unspecified number of "Associates" accounts. By enabling trading among users with "Associates" accounts, it is possible to eliminate the supply-demand gap of intra-system currency L between regions and between different information exchange markets, further promoting information distribution. it can. Note that, in transactions between users who have an "Associates" account, processing of exemption of transfer fee from the viewpoint of double taxation prevention may be additionally performed.

The value of the currency L in the system, that is, the value of the currency L in the system, is determined locally by the function of the currency issuing unit 6B and the currency control unit 6C described later. The “value scale function” is considered to be an important function of the currency, which is kept at a constant level (for example, across multiple countries with different purchasing power parity) and temporally (for example, across the current and future) In order to be able to work properly and to properly balance the value of the in-system currency L with the value of the off-system asset, the supply adjustment is made according to the demand of the in-system currency L, and the in-system currency L Reduce volatility, improve circulation speed, and further curb trading for investment or speculative purposes as described above. Details of this function will be described later.

Next, an operation of using the in-system currency L by the user having the “business person” or “individual” account acquired by transferring the in-system currency L from the user having the “Associates” account will be described. A user having an account of “business person” or “individual” transmits a request for usage act to the information distribution server device 6 via the terminal device 7 to be used. As described above, the usage act is an advantageous usage act of the information exchange market including transmission of information not regarded as content in the information exchange market (information treated as subordinate), or paid content using the system currency L Acquisition of

FIG. 10 is a flow chart showing an example of the acceptance process of the use act in the information distribution server device 6. The control unit 60 receives a request from the terminal device 7 used by the user having the “business operator” or “individual” account by the function of the management unit 6A (step S801). The management unit 6A functions as a usage request receiving unit 601 and an acquisition request receiving unit 602.

The control unit 60 specifies the content of the received request (step S802). In step S802, for example, the control unit 60 specifies that the content of the request is transmission of information to be treated as a slave. Alternatively, the control unit 60 specifies that the content of the request is acquisition of paid content.

The control unit 60 determines whether the specified content is transmission of information (step S 803), and if it is determined that transmission is information (S 803: YES), consumption of the account information of the request source The consumption amount of the system currency L to be determined is determined (step S804). That is, the control unit 60 functions as the consumption determination unit 611. In step S804, for example, the control unit 60 may determine the consumption amount of the system currency L based on the setting information stored in the storage unit 61 or the storage device 63 according to the content of the request. The setting information that determines the consumption amount of the system currency L according to the user's request may be updated to increase usage by the system administrator or autonomously by the function of the information distribution server device 6.

The control unit 60 consumes the in-system currency L associated with the account information of the requesting "business company" or "individual" by the determined consumption amount (step S805), and performs processing for the request. finish. That is, the control unit 60 functions as a consumption recording unit 603 which records consumption (disappearance) of the in-system currency L due to the first consumption activity in the in-system currency management table. At step S805, control unit 60 reduces the quantity of system currency L associated with the account information stored in storage device 63 by transaction processing unit 6D. Specifically, the control unit 60 executes a process of deleting the record of the in-system currency L owned by the requesting "business company" or "individual" from the in-system currency management table by the determined consumption amount. . At this time, the reduced system currency L is not transferred to another. The consumption of the intra-system currency L at step S805 causes the intra-system currency L to disappear from the information exchange market.

In addition, before consuming the system internal currency L, the control unit 60 transmits information on the consumption amount determined in step S 804 to the request source terminal device 7 and determines whether to consent to the consumption of the system internal currency L or not. You may check with the requesting user. The terminal device 7 displays the received consumption amount information on the display unit 73, and accepts, at the operation unit 74, a selection as to whether or not the consumption of the system currency L is accepted. The terminal device 7 transmits the selection result from the communication unit 72 to the information distribution server device 6. The information distribution server device 6 consumes the in-system currency L corresponding to the determined consumption only when the selection result of accepting the consumption of the in-system currency L is received.

In step S 803, it is determined whether it is the transmission of information such as an advertisement, but for the use accompanied by this disappearance, a user having an account of “business person” or “individual” starts including desired content, The information exchange market may be advantageously used, for example, an information collection and utilization act that enables quicker, more, and appropriate acquisition. In this case, as the system currency L is consumed more, the priority and accuracy may be improved and used.

As the information exchange market becomes a market that provides useful information, users with "business" or "individual" accounts will want to transmit information that will be associated with this and become advertising. As a result, the advertising expenses are directly and effectively returned to the users of the "Associates" account, which is an information provider who creates and provides copyrighted works, mainly from the user having the "Operator" account. Can. The increase in the number of users of "business" or "individual" accounts and the increase in usage time will further increase the scale.

If it is determined in step S803 that the information is not sent (S803: NO), the content of the request is acquisition of paid content. In this case, based on the price stored in the storage device 63 in association with the content identification information of the paid content, the control unit 60 corresponds to the in-system currency L associated with the account information of the request source by the price. The content is transferred to the account information of the paid content provider (step S806), and the process ends. Specifically, the control unit 60 determines the acquirer ID of the in-system currency L by the price of paid content among the in-system currency L owned by the requesting user (the enterprise or the individual). Execute processing to rewrite the ID of the content provider to the ID of the content provider. Further, the control unit 60 additionally executes a process of rewriting the estimated date of disappearance of the system currency L according to the user of the transfer destination. That is, the control unit 60 functions as the first transfer recording unit 604. It should be noted that the price stored in association with the content identification information may be specified when the user of the account of “Associates” transmits as content regardless of whether paid or free using the terminal device 7 The content may be designated and the price may be set. For example, when the content is transmitted, if the price is not designated, it may be treated as free content.

Specifically, at step S806, the control unit 60 sets the price of the quantity L of the system currency L stored in the delivery record of the storage device 63 in association with the request source account information by the function of the transaction processing unit 6D. Reduce by minutes and record (passbook record). In this case, at the same time, the control unit 60 stores the quantity of the system currency L reduced and associated with the account information of the request source that has acquired the paid content in association with the account information of the provider of the paid content. Record on 63 cash records.

As described above, the paid content allows, for example, a user having an “Associates” account to optionally set a price and sell the content of a work to be created. FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing an example of processing for accepting the price setting of paid content. The control unit 70 of the terminal device 7 causes the display unit 73 to display a reception screen for receiving the price setting necessary for obtaining the paid or free content transmitted to the information exchange market (step S901). On the reception screen, for example, a display field of identification information for identifying the content, an input field for inputting the price of the content (quantity of the currency L in the system), a confirmation button for fixing the input price, etc. are arranged. Be done.

Next, the control unit 70 determines whether the price of the content has been determined (step S902). That is, when the price is input in the input field of the reception screen described above and the confirm button is pressed, it can be determined that the price of the content is fixed. If it is determined that the price has not been decided (S902: NO), the control unit 70 stands by until the price is decided.

If it is determined that the price is determined (S902: YES), the control unit 70 transmits information such as identification information for identifying the content and the determined price (quantity of currency in the system) to the information distribution server device 6. (Step S903). When the information distribution server device 6 receives the content identification information and the price information, the information distribution server device 6 stores the received information in the storage device 63 in association with each other.

In addition, even as a user with a "business operator" or "individual" account, pay an in-system currency L acquired by purchasing from a user with an "Associates" account, etc., and have an "Associates" account It is possible to acquire paid content sold by the user. The paid content may be, for example, a conventional e-mail magazine, or may be content such as books, music, movies and the like. If the user who is the originator of the content sends only a part of the content as free content, and the user who has an “individual” or “business person” account using it wants to acquire it further, all the paid content It can also take the form of being acquired as. A user with an "Associates" account can provide the information exchange market with various works in various forms. It will be possible to provide any content, whether famous, anonymous, with or without funds, to users who appreciate its value. The value of unnamed content is more likely to be born and recognized, and has the effect of enhancing the creative motivation of creators and promoting circulation of the value of works. In addition, the content transmitted in the information exchange market is not limited to the copyrighted material created by the user with the “Associates” account, for example, based on the copyright or other rights entrusted to or acquired from the author by the music distributor. It may be a work. In this case, a user who has an "Associates" account that transmits the work as the content is a music distributor. In other words, a content distributor such as a video distributor may also be able to develop business in the information exchange market as a user with an "Associates" account.

In consumption activities in the information exchange market by users with "business" or "individual" accounts, usage behavior (first consumption activity) accompanied by disappearance of the system currency L and usage activity (second one) The distinction between consumption activities) is as described above. At this time, unlike the transfer of the system currency L in the "Associates" account, the fee for the "Business" or "Individual" account is not collected. However, in the consumption of in-system currency L accompanying the first consumption activity, the amount of a predetermined rate is temporarily collected from the system administrator from the in-system currency L consumed by the “business operator” account. As a thing, it is good also as a fund of the "basic income" mentioned later. In this case, the in-system currency L transferred to the system administrator from the account of the “business operator” collected to the system administrator of the “basic income” is the first consumption based on the “tax rate” set in advance. It is good to be collected at the time of activity. The in-system currency L collected by the "tax rate" may be distributed as "basic income" to a user having an "individual" account. Distribution as "Basic income" supports the economic activity of users with "personal" accounts in the information exchange market, promotes personal consumption, and increases usage frequency of users with "personal" accounts, resulting in Exerts the effect of increasing the amount of circulation and consumption of system currency L throughout the information exchange market. Note that the above-described taxing may be performed on the second consumption activity.

In this way, the in-system currency L issued to the user of the "Associates" account by sending free content is such that the user transmits information to be treated as a subordinate such as advertisement involving consumption of the in-system currency L, etc. Until it disappears due to the use activity relatively relative to other users of the information exchange market, or the expiration date, transfer such as transfer shown with reference to FIG. 7 to FIG. It is a currency that circulates among the users from time to time by using such paid contents. FIG. 12 is a diagram showing the flow of supply, distribution and extinction of the currency L in the system. The intra-system currency L is different from the value exchange medium such as points and electronic money, which are complements of legal currency in the country to which the issuing entity belongs, which has conventionally been the debt of the issuing entity at the time of issuance. Although the intra-system currency L is not a debt of the issuing entity, the function of the information distribution server device 6 becomes a coin having intrinsic economic value by itself, and is constructed by the information distribution server device 6 used by the issuing entity Or it becomes a currency that circulates endlessly as value exchange media in multiple information exchange markets.

The function of the currency issuing unit 6B will be described. The currency issuing unit 6B has a function of newly issuing the in-system currency L to the "Associates" account in the information exchange market. The currency issuing unit 6B may store the newly issued information (for example, identification information such as a serial number) of the system currency L in the storage device 63 together with attribution. At the time of new issue, attribution of the system internal currency L is managed in the system internal currency control table.

The currency control unit 6C exhibits a function of changing the value of the system currency L. As the value control unit 608, the currency control unit 6C causes the value to be zero, that is, to disappear, become unusable, or change to a smaller value after a predetermined period has elapsed since each user acquired the system currency L. Function. The information distribution server 6 for controlling the in-system currency L is equipped with a process in which the value of the in-system currency L decreases or disappears as the user's possession period elapses. In addition, a user who has an "Associates" account does not have his own consumption value for the system currency L. And a user with a "business person" or "individual" account who acquires the currency L in the system by exchanging it with other assets from "Associates" has only consumption value for the currency L in the system . Furthermore, the in-system currency L is issued without being a system administrator's debt in a new issue for the "Associates" account, and since the in-system currency L is not given an intellectual value in the issue stage. In-system currency L may not be an asset of a user having an "Associates" account at the early stage of issuance, but a mere quantified evaluation. From this, the expiration date of the in-system currency L to be issued has a ground that can be set arbitrarily by the system administrator. If the acquisition history of the system currency L is free acquisition, it may be a short term such as one day, one week or one month, and the acquisition history may be paid for (as purchased from associates, etc.). Even in the case of 1 month, 3 months, or 6 months, it may be a short period such as giving only the consumption value without giving the asset value. Then, the intrasystem currency L disappears even by the first consumption activity by the consumable user. From these facts, the intra-system currency L that circulates the information exchange market has a feature that can function as a value exchange medium having a high circulation speed as compared with the conventional value exchange medium. The in-system currency L can exhibit a function as a money having a high circulation speed in the information exchange market, and can exhibit an effect of improving the information circulation speed in the market (boosting total information exchange market production). This can also be expected to have the effect of improving the market control power of the system administrator. In addition, since a user having an "Associates" account can exchange the system currency L issued at any time for other assets, the value storage function that the system currency L does not have functions as the entire system. As described above, by the processing of the functional unit of the information distribution server device 6, the system currency L can also be expected to be effective as a currency having a faster money circulation rate than the conventional legal currency.

The currency control unit 6C determines the amount of supply of the in-system currency L to the information exchange market by the currency issuing unit 6B, that is, the issued quantity of the in-system currency L to the "Associates" account. The currency control unit 6C determines the supply amount based on the setting information stored in the storage unit 61 or the storage device 63. The currency control unit 6C refers to, for example, transaction information that does not designate a transferee in the transaction processing unit 6D, that is, a sales order and a purchase order of the user for the system currency L, The supply volume may be determined based on the change in the value of the asset. In addition, the currency control unit 6C may be determined by an algorithm for adjusting a new supply amount of the system currency L by monitoring the “pre-sales amount for borrowing” described later.

For example, the currency control unit 6C may update the setting information so as to increase the new supply amount when it is determined that there are many buying orders and the value of the currency L in the system tends to relatively increase. . Conversely, when it is determined that the selling order is strong and the buying order is weak, the currency control unit 6C may update the setting information so as to reduce the new supply amount. This makes it possible to stabilize the balance of supply and demand of the system currency L in the information exchange market, and at the same time reduce the volatility of the system currency L, and also between assets outside the system. It is possible to improve the execution speed of transactions.

The currency control unit 6C can determine the supply amount based on the transition of the contract price of the trading order of the exchange (exchange function), but in addition to this, the supply amount is adjusted by the following algorithm. It is also good. FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an outline of the standard of the new supply amount of the currency L in the system according to the following algorithm. The whole of the pie chart shown in FIG. 13 represents the total amount of in-system currency L distributed in the information exchange market. The colored part of the pie chart shown in FIG. 13 represents the quantity of in-system currency L issued to associates based on the evaluation value. The uncolored part of the pie chart shown in FIG. 13 represents the remaining number of borrowing advance sales volumes described later. In the information exchange market, the adjustment of the supply of the in-system currency L to try to keep the ratio of the pre-sales amount of borrowing within the predetermined range by the processing of the functional unit of the information distribution server 6 (the in-system currency L issuance amount to associates By performing the adjustment), it is possible to keep the monetary value of the currency L in the system constant while stabilizing the supply and demand balance of the currency L in the system in the information exchange market.
(1) The selling order of the intra-system currency L at the exchange is preferentially executed as the selling price (setting of exchange consideration) is lower.
(2) The currency control unit 6C determines in advance the selling order of the system currency L at the exchange as setting information and other assets (exchange assets) such as a predetermined legal currency to be exchanged or a specific virtual currency. For example, the system administrator may arbitrarily set the exchange ratio so that a predetermined exchange ratio, for example, a one-to-one relationship (in-system currency L and an exchange asset defined by the system administrator) become equivalent exchange. If the exchange asset to be determined is a specific virtual currency issued by the system administrator, equivalent exchange is desirable).
(3) The selling order in (2) is subordinately executed if the selling order from the "Associates" account and the selling price are equal. In other words, if the selling price of the selling order from the "Associates" account is higher than the selling price of (2), and the requested amount of the selling order equal to or less than the selling price of (2) from the "Associates" account is When the required amount of the purchase order is exceeded, the currency control unit 6C increases the “amount of borrowing” based on the selling order of (2) and causes the purchase order to be fulfilled. Here, the “amount of borrowing” is the quantity of the system currency L required for the selling order (2) which the currency control unit 6C has made a contract. It can be said that the currency control unit 6C has a function of issuing the in-system currency L infinitely. Based on the balance between supply and demand of the system currency L at the exchange, the "quantity of system currency L additionally issued" by the currency control unit 6C is referred to as "the amount of borrowing".
By this, when the user sends a buy order to the transaction processing unit 6D at a price (the exchange ratio) or more of (2), the price is always filled with the price of (2) and the user can not purchase the system currency L. There is no condition. At any time, the user can exchange the legal currency specified by the system administrator or a specific virtual currency with the in-system currency L at a predetermined exchange rate.
(4) According to (1) to (3), the transaction processing unit 6D sells a large amount (infinitely) of the system currency L, but the currency control unit 6C As "".
(5) The currency control unit 6C places a buy order of the system currency L of the same amount as the stored “pre-sale amount for borrowing” in the transaction processing unit 6D at the price of (2).
With regard to the selling order made by the user in the transaction processing unit 6D, the user is preferentially executed from the buying order made by the user. The purchase order from the currency control unit 6C is executed only when the user's sell order exists but the user buy order does not exist, and the "advance pre-sale amount" is reduced and stored. In this way, when a user with an "Associates" account places a sales order, it will always be fulfilled as long as the "advance pre-sales volume" balance remains. As long as there is a balance of "advance sales volume", there is no situation where a user having an "Associates" account can not sell (sold) the system currency L. As long as there is a balance of “pre-sales volume for borrowing”, users with “Associates” account can always use assets in the system L, such as the legal currency defined at a predetermined exchange rate or the specific virtual currency mentioned above Can be exchanged for
(6) The currency control unit 6C determines the in-system currency associated with the "Associates" account when the "pre-sale amount for borrowing" falls below the threshold (Z, described below) set as the setting information. Stop the decrease in value due to the holding period of L (counting of the expiration date).
(7) The currency control unit 6C issues the currency so that the “pre-sale amount for borrowing” approaches A% (A is a set value, for example 10%) of the total amount of in-system currency L existing in the information exchange market. Adjust the supply amount by the part 6B.

Subsequent to the above-mentioned basic processes (1) to (7), the procedural process is performed as follows.
(8) The currency control unit 6C determines that the total amount of in-system currency L in a predetermined period C is “A” when “the advance sales volume for borrowings” rises above A% to B%, ie, demand increases and supply shortages occur. × B) Adjust the supply amount to increase by%. The condition of increased demand and shortage of supply is the condition that the "pre-sales volume of borrowing" is (A + A × B)% of the total amount of the currency L in the system. B% is setting information, for example, 50%. Period C is also setting information, and is any period such as one month, two months, or one week.
When adjusting the new supply amount of the currency L in the system, it takes a certain period of time to be reflected in the “pre-sales volume of borrowing”. In order to prevent the adjustment of the new supply of the system currency L from continuing to be continued (over adjustment of the supply), the “rental” should be continued until the “fixed period (for example, D period)” has elapsed. Even if the "pre-sales amount" exceeds the threshold value, it is preferable not to adjust the new supply amount. This period D may be a period until it falls below the set “pre-sales volume”. If the setting of the predetermined period C is short, the influence of the adjustment is large, and if it is long, the influence of the adjustment is small. These setting information may be updated by the system administrator via the terminal device according to the state of the information exchange market.

In addition, demand increase, which is an increase phase of “pre-sales volume for borrowing,” and “adjustment of new supply volume at the time of supply shortage” are determined and issued based on the evaluation value to the user with “Associates” account. The quantity of the in-system currency L is multiplied by the “factor” derived by the present algorithm to increase and correct the issued quantity of the in-system currency L. By doing this, the information distribution server device 6 can effectively increase the total amount of distribution in the system currency L distributed in the information exchange market when the demand increases and the supply shortages. The effect of preventing an increase in the unit price of the currency L is achieved. From another point of view, it can be said that measures have been taken to increase the evaluation value so that users with free content and "Associates" accounts are more highly rated regarding the demand increase phase of the system currency L. In other words, evaluations to users with free content and "Associates" accounts are not unique and can be said to fluctuate in real time based on total consumption demand (total system currency L demand in the information exchange market) . By including this as well, it is possible to further evaluate the economic value of the value free content that has been transmitted by the Associates and transferred to other users. From these facts, it can be said that the intrasystem currency L is a value exchange medium having intrinsic economic value. Thereafter, the in-system currency L, which is a value exchange medium, is distributed by the information distribution server device 6.

(9) The new supply total adjustment in (8) is calculated retroactively to increase the immediate effect, and in the past, it is added to the amount of system currency L supplied to the account of “Associates”, The currency issuing unit 6B may further immediately supply the adjustment to "Associates". Thereafter, the adjustment of the total new supply amount may be continued. As described above, the supply amount adjusted by the present algorithm for adjusting the new supply amount may not be newly provided each time while being reset, and may be continuously overlapped in a multiplicative manner. In this case, the coefficient value to be multiplied by the evaluation value that has been multiplied once beyond the threshold may remain unchanged thereafter, and from that state, if the threshold is further exceeded, an additional correction may be continued.

(10) The currency control unit 6C determines that the total amount of in-system currency L in a predetermined period E is “A” when the “pre-sales volume for borrowing” falls below A% to D%, ie, demand declines and oversupply. X D) Adjust the supply to reduce%. The decrease in demand and the excess supply state are states in which the “pre-sales volume of borrowing” is (A−A × D)% of the total amount of the currency L in the system. D% is setting information, for example, 50%. Period E is also setting information, and is any period such as one month, two months, or one week.
Even when the demand declines (8) Similarly, when adjusting the new supply amount of the currency L in the system, it takes a period to reflect, so until the fixed period elapses, the “pre-sales volume for borrowing” It is preferable not to adjust the new supply amount even if the value is below the threshold. The “fixed period” may be a period until it exceeds the set “pre-sale amount of borrowing”. In addition, if the setting of the predetermined period E is short, the influence of adjustment will be large, and if it is long, the influence of adjustment will become small. These setting information may be updated by the system administrator via the terminal device according to the state of the information exchange market.

In addition, demand decrease, which is a decrease phase of “pre-sales volume for borrowing”, and “adjustment of new supply amount” at oversupply time are determined and issued based on the evaluation value to the user with “Associates” account. The quantity of the in-system currency L is multiplied by the “factor” derived by this algorithm to reduce and correct the issued quantity of the in-system currency L. By doing this and adding a mechanism described later, the information distribution server device 6 can effectively reduce the total amount of distribution in the system currency L distributed in the information exchange market at the time of reduced demand and excessive supply. In addition, there is an effect of preventing the fall of the unit price of the currency L in the system.

As described above, the currency control unit 6C receives the update of the setting information from the terminal device used by the system administrator according to the state of the information exchange market.
(11) The timing at which supply adjustment at the time of demand decrease is made the threshold Z of the "pre-sales volume for borrowing" in (6), and the currency control unit 6C determines the in-system currency associated with the user of Measures should be taken to stop the decrease in value (counting of the expiration date) due to the holding period of L. When the demand for the intra-system currency L increases and the “pre-sales volume of borrowing” reaches the value of A, the currency control unit 6C resumes the counting of the expiration date that has been stopped. Specifically, for example, the currency control unit 6C extends the expiration date of the currency ID linked to the account ID of "associates" by a value obtained by advancing one day during the execution period of the above measure. Update and return to the original processing when the action is completed.

Following the measures (8) to (11), the urgent treatment is carried out as follows.
(12) If there is a sharp decline in demand, and the "pre-sales volume of borrowing" becomes close to 0 (zero) or 0 within a predetermined range, the currency control unit 6C limits the above mentioned "basic" Raise the tax rate in the “income” to a predetermined rate. The predetermined rate is also setting information, and can be changed by updating. This substantially increases the consumption of the system currency L throughout the one or more information exchange markets, and increases the free benefit amount to the user having the "individual" account of the system currency L, It can support the consumption of users with "personal" accounts. In addition, when this emergency process is performed, it is good to make this known to the user's terminal device 7. It is preferable to disclose to the user the distribution state of the in-system currency L including “the advance amount of borrowing” in the information exchange market. At this time, the user can predict the execution timing of the emergency process. Therefore, it is possible to expect rush consumption by the user with the "business operator" account immediately before implementation (immediately before tax increase), thereby increasing demand and consequently delaying urgent processing or performing no urgent processing. It can be expected to be effective.

Currency control unit 6C also determines the unit price of currency L in the system (in other goods or services per unit in “normal time” in which one or more of the above-mentioned “pre-sales volume of borrowings” is present in transaction processing unit 6D. Provision and exchange value with other assets such as legal currency can be maintained at a predetermined level (predetermined exchange ratio predetermined as setting information). In addition, by the processing described above and below, “emergency” (“pre-sales volume” is “0”), such as a sharp decline in demand at an exception such as economic recession in the information exchange market or monetary policy failure. Even in the situation where the above-mentioned emergency processing is performed), the unit price at the exchange of the currency L in the system is unlikely to decrease.

As described above, when the demand decreases such that the threshold Z is exceeded, the expiration date of the system currency L associated with the "Associates" account has stopped counting, and the "pre-sales volume for borrowing" is 0 (zero Even if it becomes close to 0), the user (associates) may not sell the system currency L cheaply. This is because the demand of the system currency L recovers to the original demand (the advance sales volume for borrowing becomes 1 or more) with the decrease of the total amount of distribution. The user may keep standing at the price of the “normal” exchange asset (the exchange ratio predetermined by the currency control unit 6C, for example, 1 to 1). A user with an "Associates" account may set a low exchange ratio, for example, 1 to 0.9, and transmit a sell order only when he / she wants exchange assets soon.

Furthermore, in the case of (emergency) of (12), the currency control unit 6C causes, in advance, the terminal device used by the system administrator in advance when the “pre-sales volume for borrowing” becomes 0 (zero) or close to 0. You may accept a buy order at a set order price. As a result, the system currency L temporarily sold out by the system administrator from the user of the account of "Associates" is temporarily purchased. In this case, the price of the buy order may be the same as the price of the "normal" buy order, or if the price of the currency L in the system is allowed to fall, the "average" buy order is acceptable. The price may be lower than the price. In this case, the adjustment of the total amount of new supply is performed, and when the balance of supply and demand is restored, the currency control unit 6C receives the sale of the system currency L purchased from the terminal device used by the system administrator. The selling price at this time may be the purchased amount or a price to be usually sold (for example, one-to-one exchange ratio predetermined by the currency control unit 6C). As a result, in the "emergency", the system administrator can buy and support the price so that it does not fall below the system administrator's decline allowable price, and it is possible to prevent the decline in the trading price of the system currency L in the system. At the same time, it is possible to prevent a situation in which a transaction can not be concluded due to a drop in demand.

In this manner, the currency issuing unit 6B and the currency control unit 6C autonomously perform selling order (newly generating and selling, or selling for holding) of the currency L in the system based on the supply-demand gap and buying order (newly generated sales Repurchase or recover the shortfall in demand).

By the processing in the currency issuing unit 6B and the currency control unit 6C, the transaction processing unit 6D can settle the user's purchase order for the system currency L without giving stress to the user. The sale of the in-system currency L by a user having an "Associates" account is also settled without stress in peacetime. Since the user only has to wait for a while for an emergency situation, the effect of reducing the transaction stress of the user as in a conventional exchange can be expected.

When calculating the adjustment value of the new supply amount of the in-system currency L, the currency issuing unit 6B can easily calculate the amount of the in-system currency L that is insufficient or surplus by monitoring the “advance sales volume of borrowing”. become. Therefore, it is expected that the system administrator and the user can easily recognize the basis of the adjustment.

Further, the currency control unit 6C can adjust the new supply amount without depending on the adjustment algorithm of the new supply amount of the currency L in the system by monitoring the above-mentioned "advance pre-sale amount of borrowing". For example, based on the set values P, Q, R stored in the

storage unit

61 or 63, the currency control unit 6C increases or decreases the quantity for the total circulation quantity of the currency L in the system as the adjustment supply quantity. . P is a “fair price”, Q is a price fluctuation upper limit, and R is a fluctuation lower limit. Both are setting information and can be changed. With regard to the set values Q and R, it is also possible to make stepwise adjustment supply using thresholds in a plurality of stages.

The currency control unit 6C periodically determines whether the contract price of the system currency L in the transaction processing unit 6D exceeds the set value Q. If it is determined that it has exceeded, the currency issuing unit 6B adjusts and supplies To start. When the current price of the system currency L is x and the adjusted supply amount is y, the currency control unit 6C calculates the adjusted supply amount y as follows.
y = ((x−P) / P) × total circulation amount Since it takes time for the adjusted supply to be reflected, the currency control unit 6C is configured to adjust the adjusted supply in order to prevent the adjusted supply from continuing excessively. After the start, the adjustment supply is stopped until a predetermined period has elapsed.

The currency control unit 6C periodically determines whether the contract price of the system currency L in the transaction processing unit 6D is less than the set value R, and also determines that the currency issue unit 6B determines that it is less than the set R. Start adjustment supply. Assuming that the current price of the in-system currency L is x ′ and the adjusted supply amount is y ′, the currency control unit 6C calculates y ′ as follows.
y ′ = ((P−x ′) / P) × total distribution amount Also in this case, after the start of the adjustment supply, the currency control unit 6C may stop the adjustment supply until a predetermined period elapses. If the adjustment supply is reduced, the in-system currency L in circulation can not be deleted (erased) directly, so it will be reduced gradually. Therefore, it is preferable that the difference between the set value R and the appropriate price P be smaller than the difference between the set value Q and the appropriate price P.

The adjustment supply by the adjustment supply amount y (y ') is performed by the currency issuing unit 6B as follows. The currency control unit 6C calculates the distribution of the adjustment supply amount from the issue amount (evaluation supply amount) based on the evaluation value for each account of "associates". The currency control unit 6C distributes the adjusted supply amount according to the ratio of the issue amount of each account of "Associates" to the total issue amount. The base evaluation supply amount may be calculated using the latest evaluation supply amount when increasing it and using the evaluation supply amount determined at the next timing when decreasing. In the case of increasing or decreasing, the estimated supply amount determined at the next timing may be used. The currency control unit 6C may calculate the distribution of the adjustment supply according to the ratio to the whole of the evaluation value itself instead of the evaluation supply amount for each account of "Associates". There are various conceivable methods of calculating the allocation, in order to be distributed equally to the users having the "Associates" account as much as possible.

The first consumption price set by the system administrator or the like is set and updated by obtaining an optimum solution for each of the subject groups. When a plurality of actor groups are compared, the consumption amount in the system L usage of the currency L in each entity group according to the number of users active in each entity group, the activity level of content distribution, and purchasing power in the real economy, etc. Makes a difference. There may also be differences in the real economic value of the intra-system currency L acquired for the Associates. There may also be differences in the contract price with other non-system assets. This is because the information distribution server device 6 collectively manages a plurality of subject groups, and generates and distributes the system currency L, which is a single currency distributed throughout the entire information exchange market to be constructed. . The currency control unit 6C corrects the evaluation value by reflecting the difference. FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing an example of a method of correcting the evaluation value according to the subject group. Based on the corrected evaluation value, the currency issuing unit 6B issues the in-system currency L to the "Associates" account.

In this correction, the value of “evaluation” (the value moved between users due to the movement between users of information) becomes larger or smaller depending on the purchasing power of the agents to which the user belongs, and the agents relating to the transition of the times It should be done because it fluctuates by fluctuation of purchasing power. Also, as in purchasing power parity, the economic value of goods or services, etc. for each nation that is one of the groups of actors differs from nation to nation. In the case of providing a single settlement means (in-system currency L) in a market (information exchange market) including a plurality of entities having different purchasing power parities, the control of generation, distribution, etc. must be considered with respect to purchasing power parity. You must. The algorithm described here is a means to solve these problems. Here, “the group of subjects” means attribute information stored in the storage unit 61 of (the user having the account with) “associates”, “business person”, “individual” and the like who use the information exchange market, A “area” in which “area attribute” which is one of the attribute information stored in the storage unit 61 and which is a name summarized in a predetermined range according to setting information stored in the storage unit 61 in advance It is the designation of "attribute subject group". "Subject groups" can be defined in any way, such as municipality, prefectures, states, regions, countries, economic zones, or continents, but in this case they will be described assuming "state". . In other words, “subject group” is a collection of accounts having the same regional attribute, and refers to similar groups of culture, language, purchasing power parity, taxation, and the like. In other words, "subjects" usually represent a nation.

(1) In the predetermined period, the currency control unit 6C determines the consumption amount of the intra-system currency L for which the evaluation total amount of the user (associates) in each of the principal groups is determined (consumed) in the first consumption activity of the principal groups. A value (evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor) equal to the total amount (first consumption amount) of is calculated as follows (step S1301).
Evaluation of purchasing power of each entity group for a predetermined period = first consumption amount / total evaluation amount (2) The currency control unit 6C reflects the difference in purchasing power, and evaluates the Associates and gratis content belonging to each entity group ( The purchasing power reflection evaluation value is calculated as follows (step S1302). That is, the currency control unit 6C functions as the evaluation correction unit 610.
Purchasing power reflection evaluation value = original evaluation value × evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor The currency issuing unit 6B issues the in-system currency L using the purchasing power reflection evaluation value after this correction.

By performing such correction, in each group of subjects having a difference in purchasing power, an evaluation value in which the difference is reflected on associates and free content is calculated. Thereafter, the information distribution server device 6 causes the currency issuing unit 6B to issue the in-system currency L to the account of “Associates” based on the purchasing power reflection evaluation value. In this way, efficient inter-system currency L communication is realized that is not affected by economic disparities, such as differences in purchasing power parities, and efficient information is not affected by economic disparities of the main bodies. Distribution of Furthermore, by updating the purchasing power reflection evaluation value one by one, the time variation of the economic gap is absorbed in real time.

The evaluation purchasing power multiple calculated as described above is an existence such as purchasing power parity, and also serves as an index representing the difference in purchasing power among the groups of subjects. By using the evaluation correction algorithm described here, the evaluation function as the setting information updated by the system administrator eliminates the need for the system administrator and the user to consider the difference between the subject groups, and the area with purchasing power difference A reasonable evaluation value is calculated for the user who has an "Associates" account among them, and it becomes possible to eliminate the impediment factor of the information distribution in the information exchange market, and at the same time, the use of the user is promoted and the information distribution is made. Activate. Then, the evaluation function as setting information for determining the issued quantity of the in-system currency L updated by the system administrator by this and the control of the issued amount of the in-system currency L by the above-mentioned "new supply total amount adjustment algorithm" However, it is possible to use it as a relative evaluation in the information exchange market only by setting the evaluation balance for the free contents and "associates". For example, even if the set evaluation is absolutely too large or too small and the evaluation value on which the issue amount of the currency L in the system is based becomes an outlier, as a result, “associates The issuance amount of the in-system currency L issued to the “account” is adjusted to the purchasing power of each group of entities in the market and the issuance amount of the amount corresponding to the demand amount of the in-system currency L. The value as the evaluation (purchasing power reflection evaluation value) that reflects the purchasing power by users of other accounts in the market against the free content provided free of charge by the user with the “Associates” account is the system currency L The issue will be given to the account of "Associates" who are the assessors through issuance, and information distribution will be popular, and the effect of activating the information exchange market can be expected.

In the information exchange market, the system internal currency L is appropriately supplied to each entity group by reflecting the entities of the individual entity groups. Using the evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor calculated here, the currency control unit 6C corrects for the price difference resulting from the difference in purchasing power for different subject groups, and for the disparity between the subject groups similar to the national economic disparity in the real economy. It is also possible to realize the measures.

The paid content provided from the “Associates” account in a group of subjects having a relatively low rating purchasing power ratio (for example, India) has a higher content than the paid content in a group of subjects having a relatively high rating purchasing power ratio (for example, Japan). Even, price competitiveness is high. This may reduce the willingness to provide paid content in a group of subjects having a relatively high evaluation purchasing power multiple. For example, even if Japanese Associates try to provide valuable paid content to other users such as "individual" by presenting the exchange value (price) defined by itself (determining the quantity of the currency L in the system) There is a possibility that similar paid contents having value as equivalent or inexpensive edition can be provided with exceptional exchange value from Associates of India. In the information exchange market, which is a metaverse that allows users to move around the world instantaneously without paying costs, in this case, due to differences in purchasing power between groups of actors, Japanese Associates will add paid content to be provided. The value must be increased excessively compared to the paid content provided by Associates in India, and it is likely that Japan's Associates will be heavily loaded and fatigued.

Also in the real economy, products or services produced in regions such as nations where prices are lower than others are more price competitive than products or services produced in regions such as nations where prices are higher. For example, there are companies in developed countries that transfer production bases to other countries and reimport them using economic disparities. In the real economy, industries in the market are protected on a national basis using a “tariff” system.

The information distribution server device 6 in the present embodiment has a function of increasing the exchange price (the second consumption price for the second consumption activity) of the system currency L necessary for acquiring the paid content by the function of the currency control unit 6C. May be implemented. In this measure, for example, the user of the account of “business person” or “individual” in the subject group B (subject group having a relatively high evaluation purchasing power multiple) has a subject group A (subject group having a relatively low evaluation purchasing power multiple). It may be implemented when it is going to acquire the paid contents sent out in. Specifically, a price according to the ratio of the evaluation purchasing power multiple among the subject groups may be presented to the user of the account of the “business company” or the “individual” of the subject group B.
Exchange price presented = Exchange price of paid content arbitrarily set by "Associates" of subject group A × (evaluation purchasing power multiple of subject group B / evaluation purchasing power multiple of subject group A)
If the user of Entity B's "Business Operator" or "Individual" purchases paid content sent from the user of Entity A's "Associates" at the exchange price presented, the user of Entity B will pay The intra-system currency L corresponding to the exchange price is acquired by the user of the “associates” of the group of entities A.

The exchange price of paid content that "Associates" of subject group A intends to sell is a user of the account of "business person" or "individual" in subject group C whose evaluation purchasing power multiple is lower than that of subject group A or subject group A Are sold at the stated exchange price. On the other hand, users of accounts of “business person” or “individual” in the subject group B whose evaluation purchasing power multiple is higher than the subject group A are sold at the corrected exchange price that reflects the high purchasing power. Ru. As a result, the income of the "associates" account in the subject group A increases, and the exchange price of the paid content in the subject group B can not be unduly depressed. This further has the effect of being able to reduce the surplus value arising from economic disparities to the account of "associates" in the group of entities A that created value, and the economic power of the group of entities A is expected to rise.
The scope of the group of entities to which the same evaluation purchasing power multiple factor is applied is not limited to the state, but may be any region where economic conditions such as prices are considered to be similar.

In addition to this, the information distribution server device 6 in the present embodiment consumes the amount of consumption of the system currency L necessary for transmission of subordinate information between different subject groups by the function of the currency control unit 6C You may implement measures to increase).
For example, the first consumption price presented to the user of the account of “business person” or “individual” in the group of subjects A having relatively low evaluation purchase power multiple factor in the above example is higher than The first consumption price determined in the subject group B having a high evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor is presented as it is. On the other hand, with respect to the first consumption price presented to the user of the account of the “business operator” or “individual” in the group of subjects B whose evaluation purchasing power multiple is higher than others, Measures may be taken.

The currency control unit 6C corrects the consumption amount for the first consumption activity in the subject group A with respect to the account of the “business operator” or the “individual” of the subject group B according to the ratio of the evaluation purchase power ratio of the two.
When the user in the subject group B tries to refer to the first consumption price in the subject group A, the currency control unit 6C presents the following first consumption price.
1st consumption price = 1st consumption price in subject group A × (evaluation purchasing power multiple of subject group B / evaluation purchasing power multiple of subject group A)

As a result, the first consumption price presented to the user of the "business" or "individual" account of the subject group B, who intends to carry out the first consumption activity in the subject group A, is The price reflects the difference.
When the user of the subject group B performs the first consumption activity in the activity area of the subject group A (a part of the area in which the subject group A is active in the information exchange market), the first factor on which the difference in evaluation purchasing power ratio is reflected The intra-system currency L corresponding to the consumption price may disappear from the information exchange market. Alternatively, the system internal currency L may be used as the source of benefit for the basic income as much as the original first consumption price. In this case, the object of payment may be limited to the “individual” account in the subject group A, and the purchasing power of the subject group A having a relatively low evaluation purchasing power multiple may be increased. If the basic income is adopted, the system currency L for the increased amount is provided to the "personal" account of the entity group A, and if not adopted, the entire amount is treated as the first consumption amount of the entity group B It is to be done. That is, the correction process for the first consumption price reflecting the evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor including the basic income process can also be expected to have the effect of balancing the purchasing power difference between the subject groups.

As described above, the function of the currency control unit 6C can strongly generate the market competition principle of the first consumption activity by the user of the "business operator" or the "individual" account belonging to the groups of agents having different evaluation purchasing power multiples. it can. As a result, the effect of activating the consumption activity in the information exchange market can be exhibited, and further, the effect of correcting the impediment factor of the economic activity due to the difference in purchasing power among different subject groups can also be expected.

The value interlocking unit 6E exhibits a function of accepting exchange between the system internal currency L held by the user having the “Associates” account and the digital asset distributed outside the system. Here, the digital asset is, for example, a specific virtual currency equivalent to a foreign currency with respect to the system currency L, and is issued by a system administrator such as ICO. Users with "Associates" accounts need to obtain their own wallet address on the blockchain network managed by the system administrator in order to own this particular virtual currency.

FIG. 15 is a flow chart showing an example of an intra-system currency exchange procedure executed by the value interlocking unit 6E. The value interlocking unit 6E receives the quantity of the system currency L to be exchanged among the system currency L possessed by the user having the “Associates” account (step S1401).

The value interlocking unit 6E makes a exchange request to the transaction processing unit 6D so as to exchange the accepted quantity of currency L in the system for a specific virtual currency (step S1402). As described above, the transaction processing unit 6D functions as an exchange in the information exchange market, and enables exchange for a non-system asset (for example, a specific virtual currency) as one of the intra-system currency L transactions. . When the exchange from the system currency L to a specific virtual currency is completed by the function of the transaction processing unit 6D, the information of the specific virtual currency acquired by the exchange has an “Associates” account that sold the system currency L. Written to the user's wallet address. In the present embodiment, the exchange rate between the intra-system currency L and the specific virtual currency is a fixed rate (for example, one to one). In the present embodiment, the exchange rate between the system currency L and the specific virtual currency is exchanged by interlocking the processing of the new supply adjustment algorithm by monitoring the “pre-sales volume of borrowing” described above and the processing by the value interlocking unit 6E. Can be fixed by any setting by the system administrator.

Further, when the exchange from the system currency L to a specific virtual currency is completed by the function of the transaction processing unit 6D, the control unit 60 subtracts the quantity of the system currency L owned by the user by the exchanged quantity. The in-system currency management table is updated to do this (step S1403).

As described above, the value interlocking unit 6E makes it possible to exchange the value between the system currency L and a specific virtual currency, and substitutes the function of storing the value of the system currency L with a specific virtual currency. Will be able to Also, the system currency L and the specific virtual currency can be integrated to provide the function of the currency.
On the other hand, constant exchange of system currency L with a specific virtual currency (for example, one-to-one) makes it possible to set the value of system currency L to a specific virtual currency, thereby making the virtual currency economic Will be able to generate
Furthermore, the user who holds a specific virtual currency is held by the above-described function of the transaction processing unit 6D based on the above-described algorithm for monitoring the "pre-sale amount for borrowing" and adjusting the new supply amount of the currency L in the system. It is possible to exchange a specific virtual currency to the intrasystem currency L at any time and in any quantity. The value interlocking unit 6E exerts a function of generating a basis of economic value for a specific virtual currency.
In this way, a currency (value exchange medium, that is, currency L in the system) is generated based on the economic value contained in the information exchanged free of charge in the information exchange market, as in the prior art. Also, in the real world, it becomes possible to circulate a specific virtual currency based on the economic value of the system currency L on the block chain network.

FIG. 16 is a diagram showing an example of the relationship between the price, the new supply amount and circulation amount of the in-system currency L, and the unit price of the in-system currency L. The first consumption price (price) defined for each entity group by updating setting information by the administrator terminal etc. used by the system administrator is the relative balance of the first consumption price, the unit price of the system currency L, and information exchange It serves as a basis for determining the total amount of in-system currency L distributed to the market. That is, as shown in FIG. 16, when the first consumption price (price) defined for each group of entities rises, the amount of new supply and the amount of circulation of the currency L in the system increase, and the unit price of the currency L in the system accordingly Has the aspect of falling. On the contrary, when the first consumption price (price) defined for each entity group falls, the new supply amount and circulation amount of the currency L in the system decrease, and the unit price of the currency L in the system accordingly increases. Have. The increase and decrease of the first consumption price described above can be controlled by updating the setting information by the system administrator.

Second Embodiment
The second embodiment will be described below. In the second embodiment, free content transmitted from a user having an “Associates” account and a configuration for correcting the evaluation value for the user will be described. Specifically, the control unit 60 may correct the evaluation value calculated by the processing procedure shown in the flowchart of FIG. 6 based on the evaluation correction algorithm described below. The entire configuration of the system including the information distribution server device 6 is the same as that of the first embodiment, and thus the detailed description thereof will be omitted. In addition, the calculation of the evaluation value, which is the purpose of the evaluation correction described here, is equivalent to balancing of how to distribute the quantity to be issued for each association of the currency L in the system as described above. is there. That is, the evaluation value is not an absolute value but quantification of evaluation as a relative value between free content and associates. In other words, the act of quantifying the balance of the free values transferred among the users is the calculation of the evaluation value. The evaluation correction algorithm described later is processing of how to correct the evaluation value as the relative value and how to balance. That is, although the evaluation value is to be corrected, for example, just because the evaluation value is 10 times as a result, the issued quantity of the system currency L is not 10 times. Another process is used to determine the issue quantity of the in-system currency L.

(1) Evaluation correction algorithm 1
The evaluation correction algorithm 1 is a process of calculating the tendency of a free content acquisition act for a predetermined period by a user having an “enterprise” or “individual” account, and performing correction to increase or decrease the evaluation value based on the calculation result and setting information It is.
The users who acquire the free content (that is, the users having the "business" or "individual" account) each acquire free content based on their tastes and preferences. Therefore, bias is likely to occur in categories of free content that can be easily obtained by a certain user, or in the originator's associates. From this, in the information exchange market controlled by the information distribution server device 6, it is necessary to take measures to correct the above-mentioned "bias" in the calculation of the value of free content which is value transferred between users by free information exchange. Sex may occur. Therefore, by using the evaluation correction algorithm 1 described here, it is possible to evaluate the free contents and associates with large “bias” low and add corrections that highly evaluate the free contents with low “bias” and associates high. . By doing this, for a user who is an information acquirer who acquires free content, it is possible to calculate low the value transferred between users in the case of acquiring information close to the information that is usually acquired in large quantities, The value transferred between users in the case of acquiring information similar to information acquired in a small amount or not acquired at all can be calculated highly. In other words, if another expression is used, the value of the information which is caused to be acquired by the user who usually does not acquire is evaluated more than the value of the information acquired from ordinary.

In the evaluation correction algorithm 1, the control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6 can change (multiply) the correction magnification for the evaluation, for example, by reflecting the difference in the acquisition rate for each category to which the free content belongs. Further, the control unit 60 may change (multiply) the correction magnification for the evaluation by reflecting the difference in the acquisition rate for each association to which the content belongs.

The control unit 60 can calculate the correction magnification with respect to the user's evaluation, for example, by the processes (1-1) to (1-6) shown below.

(1-1) Percent Browsing Per Category The control unit 60 calculates the per cent browsing ratio per category according to the following arithmetic expression each time the user having the “business person” or “individual” account acquires free content.
Reading rate for each category = reading amount for each category / total reading amount for all categories For example, the number of browsing times of content belonging to a category A to G of a user is A50 times, B100 times, B0 times, C0 times, D1500 times, E500 times , F1500 times and G5000 times, the total number of browsing times for all contents is 8650 times, so the browsing rates for each category are A 0.6%, B 1.2%, C 0.0%, D 17.3. %, E5.8%, F17.3%, G57.8%.
(1-2) Addition Value According to Reading Ratio for Each Category The control unit 60 calculates the addition value according to the reading ratio calculated in (1-1). Specifically, the addition value y to be added to the number of browsing times of the content belonging to each category is calculated by the following arithmetic expression.
y = a + (1-browsing rate of each category) x b
Here, a represents an added value when all free content of the same category is obtained, and b represents an added value when obtained free content of a category that has never been obtained. Here, when a = 0 and b = 1, the addition values for the above categories A to G are A0.99, B0.99, C1.00, D0.83, E0.94, F0.83, respectively. It becomes G0.42. In this case, the addition value when the user acquires the free content of category C is a value higher than that of category G, which has a high acquisition frequency.
(1-3) Browsing Ratio for Each Associate The control unit 60 calculates the browsing ratio for each Associate according to the following arithmetic expression each time a user having an account of “business person” or “individual” acquires free content.
Reading rate for each associate = reading amount for each associate / total reading amount for all associates For example, the number of times for viewing a free content of associates A to G by a user is A50 times, B100 times, B0 times, C0 times, D1500 times, E500 times , F1500 times and G5000 times, the total number of browsing times is 8650 times, so the browsing rates for each associate are A 0.6%, B 1.2%, C 0.0%, D 17.3%, E5 respectively .8%, F 17.3%, G 57.8%.
(1-4) Addition Value According to Browsing Ratio for Each Associate The control unit 60 calculates an addition value according to the browsing ratio calculated in (1-3). Specifically, the addition value y ′ to be added to the number of browsing times for each associate is calculated by the following equation.
y '= a' + (1-browsing rate of each associate) x b '
Here, a 'represents the added value when all the free content transmitted by the same Associates has been acquired, and b' represents the added value when the free content transmitted by the Associates that has never been acquired has been acquired. ing. Here, when setting a ′ = 0 and b ′ = 1, the addition values to the above associates A to G are A 0.99, B 0.99, C 1.00, D 0.83, E 0.94, F 0. 83, G 0.42. In this case, the addition value when the user acquires the free content of Associates C is a higher value than Associates G, which has a high acquisition frequency.
(1-5) Correction of the number of browsing times, browsing time, viewer evaluation The control unit 60 calculates the number of browsing times, browsing time, correction magnification by which the viewer evaluation is multiplied by the following arithmetic expression.
Correction magnification = 1 + y + y '
Here, y is an added value according to the browsing ratio for each category calculated in (1-2) above, and y 'is an addition according to the browsing ratio for each associate calculated in (1-4) above It is a value.

(2) Evaluation correction algorithm 2
The evaluation correction algorithm 2 is processing for performing correction to increase or decrease the evaluation value based on the acquisition rate of free content by the user having the “business person” or “individual” account, and the setting information.
From the terminal operation state of the user who browses or acquires the free content (ie, the user having the “business person” or “individual” account), the information distribution server device 6 allows the user to handle all free content from the beginning to the end A process may be added to determine (to what extent) the eye has passed. For example, free content such as articles displayed on the display unit 73 of the user's terminal device 7 can not all be browsed unless the screen is scrolled in most cases, and there are a plurality of pages. May not be able to view everything without updating the screen. At this time, the information distribution server device 6 determines how the user performed the above-mentioned process, for example, when performing all the processes, 100 points, 50% or more of the processes are performed. The evaluation based on the points may be corrected by adding points, such as 30 points when 50 points or 30% or more of the stroke is performed, or 0 points when the performed stroke is less than 30%.
Furthermore, at this time, although the amount of information of the free content such as articles has a large influence on the above score, the measure of multiplying the amount of information of free content may be multiplied by a factor to evaluate Good. By doing this, the information distribution is larger than the amount of information, and the content browsed to the user is highly evaluated by the information distribution server device 6, and the quality and the amount of free content transmitted by Associates are The user's willingness to view and improve the free content will be increased, and the information exchange market will be activated.

In the evaluation correction algorithm 2, the control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6 calculates a correction magnification by which the time evaluation value calculated in step S203 is multiplied, for example, by the following arithmetic expression.
Correction magnification = (acquisition rate-lower acquisition rate) / (100-lower acquisition rate)
As setting information, it is assumed that an acquisition rate of 100% and a lower limit acquisition rate are defined in advance for each free content. The acquisition rate of free content by the user is calculated as a ratio (%) to the 100% acquisition rate.

For example, when the content to be evaluated is a moving image having a viewing time of 2 minutes, a state where the acquisition rate is 100% is defined as the user viewing the moving image for 2 minutes. If the user views the video for one minute, the acquisition rate is calculated as 50%. The lower limit acquisition rate is appropriately set. For example, when the lower limit acquisition rate is 30% and the viewing time of the moving image by the user is one minute, the correction magnification is calculated as (50-30) / (100-30) = 0.29. In this example, the correction magnification is maximum (= 1) when the acquisition rate is 100%, and is minimum (= 0) when the acquisition rate is 30% or less (viewing time is 36 seconds or less). In the above example, the moving image was taken as an example to explain the specific calculation method of the correction magnification, but the content such as the document other than the moving image, music, and images also has 100% acquisition rate, lower acquisition rate and The correction magnification can be calculated by the same calculation method by defining.

In addition, the arithmetic expression which calculates correction | amendment magnification is not limited to said arithmetic expression, For example, you may use arithmetic expressions which are shown below.
Correction magnification = a x (x-p) x (x-p)
Here, x represents an acquisition rate, p represents a lower limit acquisition rate, and a represents a change rate calculated by 1 / ((1-p) × (1-p)). In this arithmetic expression, the correction magnification approaches 1 as the acquisition rate approaches 100%.

By adopting the above calculation method, for example, the latter is differentiated so that the evaluation is higher between the content that had 60 viewings per second and the content that had one viewing for 60 seconds. It is possible to make an evaluation and a more appropriate evaluation is possible. Although the upper limit value of the correction magnification is 1 in both of the above-described arithmetic expressions, the upper limit value of the correction magnification is not limited to 1 and may be set as appropriate.

(3) Evaluation correction algorithm 3
The evaluation correction algorithm 3 is processing for performing correction to increase or decrease the evaluation value based on setting information set by a user having an account of “business operator” or “individual”.
In addition to the evaluation balance setting based on the basic setting information by the system administrator, weighting (evaluation balance) correction of the degree of evaluation may be performed by the user's arbitrary setting. About the basic balance setting of the evaluation based on the evaluation value that determines the balance of the issue amount of the currency L in the system to the "Associates" account, the processing to make this reflect the user's intention is the evaluation correction Algorithm 3. For example, a user having an account of “business person” or “individual” may be able to arbitrarily correct the evaluation balance for his free content acquisition behavior, and the information distribution server device 6 is further corrected It may be possible to execute a measure that multiplies the evaluation value calculated by the information distribution server device 6 by the evaluation balance. In this way, the information distribution server device 6 can derive an evaluation value that reflects the user's intention (arbitrarily corrects the evaluation balance), and conventionally, the information distribution server device 6 conventionally receives an option from the system administrator. It becomes possible to extend the weighting (balancing) of the evaluation that was a dedicated action of the user to the action of the user, the range of intervention of the system administrator's intention is limited, and the intention of the user is intervened Can be expected to be effective. Here, the correction of the evaluation balance is a relative weight adjustment with other categories of each category to which the free content belongs.

For example, the evaluation correction arbitrarily performed by the user may be received using a user interface such as an equalizer that adjusts the sound of music so that an intuitive operation can be performed. In addition, even if the user corrects all values to the maximum value so as not to accept arbitrary operation, for example, in balance, the information distribution server device 6 performs this in the median calculation process. It may be determined that the correction is not performed by including the, and the evaluation may reflect "how the user thinks of the balance of the evaluation" to the last. That is, the evaluation correction performed by the user mentioned here is not an absolute one but how to correct the relative balance. For example, in the information exchange market, the information distribution server device 6 always receives votes by the users having accounts other than "Associates" (any evaluation correction described above), every predetermined period determined in advance by the system administrator. For the basic balance setting of evaluation, processing of reflecting the result (average value) of the votes on the setting information of the information distribution server device 6 may be performed. Note that the user's vote may not be reset even after the setting information update processing is performed, and the user may be able to always update the basic balance of the evaluation set in the vote. Then, the information distribution server device 6 may update the setting information based on the vote every predetermined period. The change width may be set to, for example, a half of the change amount voted, in order to prevent a change in the basic balance of rapid evaluation. Further, in order to prevent the value from becoming an extreme value, the upper end value and the lower end value may be set in advance by the system administrator. Furthermore, weighting may be performed on votes for each user. In this case, weighting may be performed for each user based on the user's information exchange market usage condition, and voting may be multiplied by a coefficient according to the weight. .

For example, in addition to the above, the information distribution server device 6 stores the character string of the search word input by the user, derives the degree of interest in the free content of the user, and based on the derived degree of interest The degree of evaluation of categories to which the related free content belongs (eg, domestic political category, domestic economic category, international technology category, domestic music category, etc.) may be changed. The change in the degree of evaluation based on the degree of interest performed by the information distribution server device 6 may be performed for each subject group.

Furthermore, in addition to the above, the information distribution server device 6 calculates the average value of the user's evaluation balance (subject group evaluation balance) for each subject group to which the user belongs, with respect to the user's own evaluation balance, The distribution server device 6 may add processing to add and correct the evaluation value calculated for the associates and the free content belonging to the subject group based on the calculated subject group evaluation balance. . Further, the information distribution server device 6 may disclose to the associates in real time about the subject group evaluation balance and the degree of interest. By doing this, the information distribution server device 6 can distribute and issue the balance of the in-system currency L to the associates based on the user's evaluation in a balance closer to the actual evaluation, and It is possible to make it possible to make evaluations that reflect differences in evaluation tendency (characteristics, for example, national character etc.), and to encourage the provision of free content that reflects changes in the user's degree of interest (by search strings) As a result, the information exchange market can be activated, the convenience of the user can be enhanced, and the intervention and effort of the system administrator can be reduced.

In the evaluation correction algorithm 3, the control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6 receives, for example, a change in correction magnification for evaluation for each category of free content from a user having an account of “business operator” or “individual”. The evaluation value for the free content is increased or decreased based on the correction magnification of. Also, the correction magnification after change may be totaled for each subject group, and the correction magnification for each category may be changed for each subject group based on the tabulation result. In this case, based on the post-change correction magnification, correction is performed to increase or decrease the evaluation value of the free content belonging to each category for each subject group.

When accepting a change in the correction magnification, a condition may be imposed that the sum of the correction magnifications for each category does not increase or decrease before and after the change. Further, the upper limit value and / or the lower limit value may be set in advance with respect to the correction magnification that accepts the change.

In the evaluation correction algorithm 3, since the user sets the correction magnification for each category, when the number of categories increases, an adverse effect is caused that the operation amount increases. Therefore, the amount of operation of the user may be reduced by dividing the categories into the large classification and the small classification, and collectively accepting the change of the correction magnification for each category for each large classification and / or each small classification.

In addition, when calculating the evaluation value of the free content, the number of browsing times, browsing time, and browser evaluation corrected by the evaluation correction algorithms 1 to 3 may be aggregated and used.
(I) In the browsing frequency evaluation value, the browsing frequency evaluation value is calculated with reference to how many users browsed the free content in a predetermined period. At this time, the number of browsing times corrected by the evaluation correction algorithms 1 to 3 is counted.
Number of browsing evaluation value = number of browsing x a + number of browsing x a 'x (number of browsing / total number of browsing) + a "
Here, the setting value a: the number of viewing people's magnification a ': the number of viewing people multiple in the case of evaluation by the ratio to the total number of viewings a ": the evaluation value for the highest number of viewing people (ii) The browsing time evaluation value is calculated by referring to how many seconds the free content has been browsed, and at this time, the browsing times corrected by the evaluation correction algorithms 1 to 3 are totaled.
Reading time evaluation value = reading time x b + reading time x b 'x (reading time / total reading time) + b "
Here, the setting value b: browsing time magnification b ': browsing time magnification when evaluating with the ratio to the total browsing time b ": evaluation value for the browsing time upper rank (iii) Viewer evaluation value is free for a predetermined period The viewer evaluation value is calculated with reference to the number of evaluations obtained by the content (for example, total number of likes-total number of different likes) and the total number of evaluations of the five-level evaluation. Add up the rated visitor ratings.
Viewer rating value = viewer rating x c + viewer rating x c 'x (viewer rating / total viewer rating) + c "
Here, the setting value c: viewer evaluation magnification c ′: viewer evaluation magnification when evaluating with the ratio to the total amount c ′ ′: evaluation value for the viewer evaluation top (iv) other than the above (i) to (iii) If the evaluation is deemed to be permitted for the free content at (for example, a long seller exceeding a predetermined period, a prominent evaluation, etc.), the evaluation value is calculated by an appropriate method.
(V) Calculate the sum of the evaluation values for the free content calculated in (i) to (iv) above, and obtain the "evaluation value of each free content".

(4) Evaluation correction algorithm 4
The evaluation correction algorithm 4 is a process for improving the quality of free contents transmitted by associates in the information exchange market.
Associates may also be able to make arbitrary assessments of free content that is originated by other associates in the same group of entities. For example, when browsing free content as an associate, the relevant associate is made to be able to evaluate the evaluation on the quality of the browsed free content by an arbitrary evaluation method such as, for example, 33. Moreover, you may correct | amend so that the average value of the value which evaluated the free content as an evaluator may become the central value of evaluation for every predetermined | prescribed period. At this time, if there is evaluated free content that is corrected to a value exceeding the upper limit or lower limit value of evaluation, the evaluation after correction for the evaluated free content may be evaluated as the upper limit or lower limit value. . Then, a correction is made to weight evaluation evaluations and evaluation Associates in the same entity group, that is, evaluation values serving as the basis for determining the quantity for which the system currency L is issued, in each association. By doing this, for example, it becomes possible to cause the following.

(I) It becomes possible to generate the amount of evaluation of the free content for each associate, and it is possible to perform correction to raise or lower the evaluation value of the associate according to the order of the association based on the amount of evaluation. It will be. (What evaluates active evaluation)
(Ii) For each free content, it is possible to make the evaluation from other associates larger or smaller, and it is possible to perform correction to raise or lower the evaluation value of the content depending on the degree to which the free content is evaluated. Become. (Thing to evaluate passive evaluation)
(Iii) For each free content, it is possible to make the evaluation from other associates larger or smaller, and for each Associate, Associates ranks by the average of the degree to which the free content to be transmitted is evaluated. It is possible to perform correction that raises and lowers the evaluation value of. (Thing to evaluate passive evaluation)
(Iv) Associates evaluate many free content sent by others, and the higher the free content sent by oneself gets higher, the correction that the evaluation value increases is added, conversely, as an extreme example, others Instead of evaluating the free content sent by the, the correction value to which the evaluation value decreases will be added to the extent that the free content sent by the user is rated low by other associates.
(V) Since the total amount of intra-system currency L issued to the entire association of the same entity group is determined by the processing of the information distribution server device 6 shown in the first embodiment, the mutual evaluation action among the associates is As a result, the issue balance of the intra-system currency L for each associate is changed, and the self-cleaning effect on the quality of the free content is exhibited.
(Vi) Associates are primarily able to gain in-world currency as well as the information exchange market by acquiring the in-system currency L in the information exchange market by exhibiting their own expertise and creativity From the above, the increase in user usage by improving the quality of free content in the information exchange market is the basis for increasing their own income, so that the self-cleaning effect will be further exhibited.
(Vii) It can be expected that the fake news will not be easily transmitted.
(Viii) It can be expected that the imitation content (copyright infringing content such as plagiarized content) is less likely to be transmitted.

In the evaluation correction algorithm 4, the control unit 60 of the information distribution server device 6 performs correction to increase or decrease the evaluation value, for example, based on the evaluation behavior of the free content by the user having the "Associates" account and the setting information. The correction by the evaluation correction algorithm 4 is for fake news, stealing of other contents, appearance of unappreciable Associates, and support to valuable Associates in order to improve the quality of free contents and the information exchange market. It is an object. The evaluation algorithm 4 is composed of the following (element 1) to (element 3).

(Element 1) Corrections to increase or decrease the evaluation value of gratis content based on the evaluations and settings information made on the gratis content by Associates Associates, unlike general users, are earning revenue from the information exchange market It is. In order to revitalize the information exchange market, the quality improvement of the free content released by other associates as well as oneself will lead to an increase in one's income. Therefore, Associates monitors (uses) the free content and executes an evaluation to correct the "rate" instead of the "amount" for the free content.

(Element 2) Correction to increase or decrease the evaluation of associates according to the process of total evaluation received from other associates Associates evaluation is carried out for each free content, but the total evaluation amount of these Associates evaluated free contents Associates Associates, who are the assessors, are evaluated based on

Depending on (element 3) and the degree of evaluation behavior performed by the Associates themselves, correction is performed to increase or decrease the evaluation value of the Associates.
(Element 3) is an active evaluation. In other words, it evaluates how much the Associates have actively evaluated other Associates. Associates with a large amount of active evaluations (checking and evaluation of free content) can be corrected to increase the evaluation value. In other words, Associates who send out free content, are evaluated, and evaluate other people's free content will increase their income.

For evaluation of free content by users of "Associates", an evaluation method unique to Associates is adopted, for example, a 5-step evaluation of 1-5. In the evaluation correction algorithm 4, the following processing is performed in order to prevent a bias in evaluation due to a difference in evaluation standard for each associate.

The control unit 60 calculates the average value of the evaluation by the user of the selected "associates", and calculates the ratio to the central value of the evaluation. For example, the evaluation of content A to D by a certain “Associates” user is as follows:
Content A = Evaluation 5
Content B = Evaluation 1
Content C = Evaluation 4
Content D = Evaluation 5
In this case, the average value of the evaluation of the contents A to D calculated by the control unit 60 is 3.75, and the ratio to the central value of the evaluation (3 in this example) is 0.8.

The control unit 60 corrects the evaluation as follows by multiplying the calculated ratio by the original evaluation.
Content A = Evaluation 4
Content B = Evaluation 1
Content C = Rating 3.2
Content D = Evaluation 4
It becomes. However, the lower limit is set for the evaluation of the content B in which the value multiplied by the ratio is less than the lower limit (1 in the above example). The same applies to the case where the value multiplied by the ratio exceeds the upper limit (5 in the above example), and the upper limit is set.

By performing the above correction, even if the sweet (or painful) Associates of the Evaluation gives the evaluation 5 (or 1) to all the contents, the evaluation after the correction becomes all 3 and the individual Associates Bias in the evaluation of

Next, the control unit 60 tabulates the evaluation after correction for each free content, and calculates an evaluated average value in a predetermined period. The control unit 60 also performs correction to increase or decrease the evaluation value for each free content, based on the calculation result and the setting information.

In addition, based on the number of free content evaluations for each Associate, Associates are ranked for each subject group, and correction is performed to increase or decrease the evaluation value of Associates based on the determined ranking.

Furthermore, based on the average value of the Associates rating received by the free content transmitted by Associates, the Associates are ranked for each subject group, and correction is made to increase or decrease the Associates rating based on the determined ranking.

As described above, according to the process of the information distribution server device 6 shown in the first embodiment, the evaluation values for the free content and the associates are calculated (or calculated) for each subject group, but in the second embodiment The evaluation correction algorithm shown is further from
"Reflect the difference in evaluation balance among the groups of subjects (for example, the difference in national character)"
"Reflect the difference in evaluation balance between users (for example, the difference in tastes of interests)"
"Reflect the difference in the evaluation balance at different times (for example, the degree of change in interest)"
"Reflect the difference in the evaluation state of each content (for example, the difference in the content)"
Make it possible to reflect the difference in evaluation status between associates (for example, the superiority or inferiority of the quality of free content),
Further, the evaluation value is corrected by performing an evaluation process that "reduces the intervention of the intention of the system administrator and relatively reflects the intention of the user".

That is, the above-mentioned process (difference in the content of the content itself "the above-mentioned evaluation correction algorithm 2", transition of interest change "the above-mentioned evaluation correction algorithm 3", the difference in the information acquisition tendency of the information acquisition user "the above-mentioned evaluation correction algorithm 1), differences in characteristics among subject groups "the above-mentioned evaluation correction algorithm 3", superiority or inferiority of information transmission quality for each free content or each association evaluated by associates "the above evaluation correction algorithm 4", and system management A correction is added to the evaluation value by performing a democratic evaluation process "the above-mentioned evaluation correction algorithm 3" which reduces the user's intention intervention and reflects the user's intention relatively largely.

In this way, the amount of value transferred from a user with an "Associates" account to a user with an "Operator" or "Individual" account is rationalized with a more rational basis (more actual) The evaluation value can be calculated, and furthermore, the system currency L can be issued fairly and efficiently based on the evaluation value to the associate who is the value provider. Thus, the information exchange market can be activated.

The third embodiment, the fourth embodiment and the fifth embodiment will be described below. The function of the currency issuing unit 6B of the information distribution server device 6 in the first embodiment will be described in another expression. For example, the "information exchange market" in the first embodiment is referred to as "market place" in the third embodiment, and is referred to as "information providing site" in the fourth embodiment, and is referred to as "virtual market" in the fifth embodiment. . Also, "in-system currency L" in the first embodiment is referred to as "point" in the third and fourth embodiments, and is referred to as "virtual currency" in the fifth embodiment. Furthermore, "Associates" in the first embodiment is referred to as "affiliated store" in the third embodiment, "first user" in the fourth embodiment, and "business operator" in the third embodiment. It is referred to as "company member", and "company" as the "second user" in the fourth embodiment. It is an example of the same meaning and different embodiment.

Third Embodiment
FIG. 17 is a view for explaining an outline of a service by the point management system S1 of the one embodiment of the privilege management system according to the third embodiment. FIG. 18 is a diagram showing the configuration of the point management system S1. First, an outline of the point management system S1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 17 and 18. In addition, the "point" in this specification is a kind of the benefit which has the value which can be exchanged with information, utilization space, or goods. In the present specification, points are illustrated as benefits, but the benefits may be intangibles other than points. The “information” in the present specification is an intangible substance input from a user interface that can be converted to data that can be communicated between a terminal and a server, or an intangible substance output to a user interface. The “information” is, for example, characters, sounds, images, moving images, data files, contents, applications, smells, or operations, or a combination of two or more of them.

The point management system S1 allows a user to transmit and receive data to / from a server on a network using a user interface of a communicable terminal such as a PC, a tablet, a mobile phone, a television, a car navigation, a home game machine, or a robot. To create an online market (hereinafter referred to as a market place) realized by a website, web application, SNS, metaverse, software, or cloud computing etc. by which information can be exchanged among users. Is a system to allow users of each other to interact with each other. The user interface of the terminal is, for example, various data input / output devices such as a display, a speaker, a keyboard, a mouse, a touch pad, a touch panel, a microphone, a camera, a controller, a remote controller, a switch, a glove, a suit, shoes, and goggles.

The marketplace, includes a one or more servers that store for example information, the information provider stores the information in a server on the marketplace via the information providing terminal 1, information user information use terminal 2 You can get information from the server on the marketplace via. In the point management system S1, an information provider who provides information (affiliated store in FIG. 17) and an information user who uses information (a company member in FIG. 17) respectively have an information providing terminal 1 and an information using terminal 2 Information exchange is realized by using the point management server 3 managed by the operator of the point management system S1.

The information provider can provide information in the marketplace, for example, by depositing money to the operator. Informants include, for example, agents that support job changes, professionals such as lawyers, patent attorneys, and accountants who advise on legal matters, consultants, and brokers such as real estate agents, marriage counselors, housekeepers introducers, and care managers, etc. And so on. The information provider transmits information to the point management server 3 using the information providing terminal 1 shown in FIG. 18 so that information that the information user can access using the information using terminal 2 can be provided.

An information user is an individual, an individual business owner, a corporation, or an organization that utilizes information provided by the information provider for his / her business or behavior. The information user can acquire the information provided from the information provision terminal 1 by accessing the point management server 3 using the information use terminal 2 shown in FIG.

In this service, in order to provide excellent information by the information provider, the behavior of the information provider is monitored, and various incentives are provided according to the content of the information provider's action. In this service, for example, the following incentives are provided.
(1) information provider, based on the content and amount of information that is given the available points marketplace free of (2) the information provider provides, usable points is given by the marketplace According to the amount of points given to the information provider within a predetermined evaluation period, the order in which the information providers are displayed in the marketplace is determined (3) Information points given by the information provider Transfer to the user, and collect the price of the point transferred from the information user in the real market, and use it as revenue (4) Based on the content and amount of information provided by the information provider, available in the marketplace Points are given and displayed by the information provider in the marketplace according to the amount of points given to the information provider within a predetermined evaluation period Rank is determined to be. Then, the operator is provided incentives based on the determined ranking and the amount of commissions transferred to the information users and paid to the operator, and the incentives provided can be used as earnings.

The points that can be used in the marketplace are not acquired by the affiliated store by paying the price, but are granted based on the result of the point management server 3 evaluating the behavior in the marketplace of the affiliated store. For example, the point management system S1 is awarded points based on the quality and / or amount of information provided in the marketplace. Conventionally, as described in Non-Patent Document 1, points have been awarded as a reward for purchasing a product. However, as the service to be provided using a point management system S1, rather than intended only selling products, for the purpose of passing it through the information of good quality, as in the prior art, a purchase There is a problem that, even if points are given as a reward for doing things, it does not lead to an increase in the amount of high quality information. In point management system S1, based on the content and amount of information that the information provider provides, for available point in the marketplace is applied, as participants in the marketplace to provide quality information Can be motivated.

In the point management system S1, information provided by the marketplace operator is provided in the marketplace so that the points given to the affiliated store have a value sufficient to cause the information circulation in the marketplace. Alternatively, setting information such as a coefficient or a formula which determines the relationship between information used in the marketplace and the number of points can be set. Therefore, the operator can appropriately change the value of the points so as to activate the distribution of information in the marketplace by controlling the coefficients or formulas.

(Assignment of points)
The points given to the member store can be transferred to the corporate member for a fee or for free ((8) in FIG. 17). When a member store transfers points to a business member, the operator collects a fee from the member store. Specifically, the amount of the fee is moved from the system cash passbook of the affiliated store managed by the point management server 3 to the system cash passbook of the operator ((9) in FIG. 17).

(Consumption of points)
Corporate members can consume various points granted to obtain various information. When the corporate member consumes points, the point management server 3 subtracts the number of points consumed from the point passbook corresponding to the corporate member ((10) in FIG. 17).

(Elimination of points)
If a member store does not execute an action (recommended action) in which points set by the operator in advance are provided, such as providing information in the marketplace, the granted points disappear ((11 in FIG. )). Specifically, the point management server 3 eliminates the points of the affiliated store by reducing the predetermined point number from the point balance of the affiliated store recorded in the point passbook of the affiliated store managed by the point management server 3 Let

(Incentive)
The operator provides the incentive fee to the member store based on the total amount of the fee paid by the member store within a predetermined period and the action evaluation (decided ranking) ((12) in FIG. 17). Specifically, the system cash passbook of merchants from the operator of the system cash passbook the point management server 3 to manage, to move an amount equivalent to the incentives. In this manner, by providing the incentives to the operator, the member store is actively motivated to transfer points to the corporate members and carry out the action recommended by the operator.

[Configuration of point management server 3]
Hereinafter, the configuration and operation of the point management server 3 will be described in detail. In the following description, a member store is referred to as an information provider, and a company member is referred to as an information user.

FIG. 19 is a diagram showing the configuration of the point management server 3. The point management server 3 includes a communication unit 31, a storage unit 32, and a control unit 33. The communication unit 31 is a communication interface for transmitting and receiving data to and from the information providing terminal 1 and the information using terminal 2. The storage unit 32 is a storage medium such as a ROM, a RAM, and a hard disk. The storage unit 32 stores a program that the control unit 33 executes. The storage unit 32, information provider information (e.g., information for identifying the information provider, and past behavior information content provider), information user information (e.g., to identify the information user Information, and the past action content of the information user), various information such as a system cash passbook and a point passbook are stored.

The control unit 33 is, for example, a CPU, and functions as a management unit 41, a rank determination unit 42, and an information providing unit 43 by executing a program stored in the storage unit 32.

The management unit 41 executes various functions for managing points. Although the details of the management unit 41 will be described later, when the management unit 41 acquires payment data from the information provider, points of the amount calculated using a predetermined calculation formula based on the deposit amount indicated by the acquired payment data Grant

Also, the management unit 41 gives points to the information provider who is the information provider based on the provided information provided from the information providing terminal 1 to the information use terminal 2. For example, the management unit 41 gives points of an amount obtained by multiplying the amount of provided information provided from the information providing terminal 1 to the information using terminal 2 by a predetermined coefficient.

The management unit 41 may decrease the awarded points in accordance with the elapsed time since the award of the points. At this time, the management unit 41 decreases the points of the amount based on the order determined by the order determination unit 42. For example, the higher the order determined by the order determining unit 42, the larger the management unit 41 increases the reduction amount of points with respect to a predetermined elapsed time. This makes it easy to change the order of the information providers, which can enhance the motivation for the information providers to provide information.

Also, the management unit 41 manages the balance of points in association with the information provider and the information user. Management unit 41, reduces the information provider to provide some or all of the points on information users, along with increasing the balance of points associated with the information user, the balance of points associated with the information provider Let

When the information providing terminal 1 provides information to the information using terminal 2, the management unit 41 determines the amount of points corresponding to the provided information (for example, a document downloaded by a company member or the like and sent by a member store). The balance of points associated with the information user may be decreased, and the balance of points associated with the information provider may be increased. When the information provider provides the information user with some or all of the points, the management unit 41 may subtract the fee corresponding to the amount of points provided to the information user from the cash balance of the information provider.

Further, when the information provider provides the information user with a part or all of the points, the management unit 41 is based on the amount of points provided to the information user and the order of the information providers determined by the order determination unit 42. The incentives determined in the report to the cash balance of the informant. The management unit 41 determines, for example, a reward for each predetermined evaluation period. At this time, the management unit 41 may increase the incentive fee as the rank of the information provider is higher. By doing this, the information provider is motivated to raise their rank, and thus the information provider can provide information positively.

When the information user newly registers, the management unit 41 may give the information user a second type point that does not affect the ranking of the information provider. The type 2 points directly given to the information user by the management unit 41 do not affect the evaluation of the information provider. As described above, the management unit 41 provides the second type points, whereby an information user who does not have a connection with the information provider can easily start using the service.

The ranking determination unit 42 ranks the information providers for each predetermined period based on the number of points given to the information provider by the management unit 41. The ranking determination unit 42 sets the ranking at the time when a plurality of information providers in the information using terminal 2 is displayed on the information using terminal 2 as the number of points given to the information provider in the predetermined evaluation period increases. Do. The predetermined evaluation period is, for example, a predetermined period (e.g., one year) prior to the point when the information provider is given a new point. The predetermined evaluation period may be a predetermined period (for example, one month) starting from a predetermined day (for example, the beginning of a month). The order determination unit 42 may initialize the accumulated point number given to each information provider when the evaluation period ends.

Order determination unit 42, for example, the information providing unit 43 displays a plurality of information providers when listing the information use terminal 2, the upper point often informant given to a predetermined evaluation period To determine the order. When the information providing unit 43 sequentially displays a plurality of information providers on the information use terminal 2, the frequency (that is, the appearance rate) of displaying the information providers having many points given in the evaluation period may be increased. By doing this, the operator of the point management system S1 actively provides information to increase the order in which the information provider is displayed or the frequency with which the information provider is displayed. You can be motivated to get it.

The ranking determination unit 42 determines the overall ranking determined for all the information providers in the marketplace, the district (province, municipality, prefecture, country, or administrative district such as area, autonomous district, legitimacy district, or It is possible to determine the regional edition ranking determined for the information provider in the corresponding region etc.). Order determination unit 42, by ranking all the information provider for the entire sequentially points granted often determines the overall ranking. Further, the order determination unit 42, by ranking the information provider in the region in descending order of the number of points assigned to determine the local version order.

Note that when determining the regional version ranking, the ranking determination unit 42 provides (1) the population of the area targeted for determining the ranking as (2) information provision that sets the area as a service providing area (activity range) A value obtained by dividing the number by the total number of population in the service area provided by the person and (3) divided by the number of points given by the management unit 41 is used as the basis for determining the order. Rank order determining section 42 has been determined, the order at the time of displaying the information providers belonging to a predetermined region in the information providing site that lists the information provider, the information providing site information user to display the information provider It is reflected in the probability (occurrence rate) displayed on the information providing site when updated and the amount of incentives.

The information providing site is a server used to provide information (transmitted by the information providing terminal 1) by the information provider, or a server used to use information (received by the information using terminal 2) by the information user. It is a storage area. The information providing site realizes, for example, a web page, a website, a portal site, an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) site, a web application, an SNS, a metaverse, software, or cloud computing etc. Storage area provided by the server to

The information providing unit 43 provides the information using terminal 2 with provider information for specifying at least a part of information providers of a plurality of information providers, based on the order determined by the order determining unit 42. The provider information is, for example, information including a name, an address, a contact address, etc. of the information provider as the information provider, and the information use terminal 2 performs an operation of searching for the information provider. Is displayed.

[Details of management section 41]
The details of the management unit 41 will be described below. FIG. 20 is a functional block diagram showing functions performed by the management unit 41. The management unit 41 executes a program to execute an action monitoring unit 411, a first point giving unit 412, a second point giving unit 413, a campaign point giving unit 414, a point consumption amount changing unit 415, a point annihilation processing unit 416, It functions as a fee collection unit 417 and an incentive payment unit 418.

(Action monitoring unit 411)
The behavior monitoring unit 411 monitors the behavior of the information provider as the information provider and the behavior of the information user as the information user by monitoring the information exchanged on the marketplace. The behavior monitoring unit 411 notifies other functional units of the management unit 41 of the content of the monitored and specified behavior. Behavior information provider, for example, the act of transmitting the information in the information providing site, or information user is an act that leads to the use of information by the contents of the actions of the information provider, the amount or quality of outgoing information, Or represented by the amount or quality of information used by the contribution of the information provider. The action of the information user is, for example, an action of browsing information on an information providing site.

(First point granting unit 412)
The first point giving unit 412 gives points to the information provider based on the content of the action by the information provider who is the selling entity of the points in the marketplace specified by the action monitoring unit 411. The first point giving unit 412, when detecting that the information provider has taken suggested actions, calculates the number of points issued based on the set recommended action coefficient or predetermined formula by operators to manage the marketplace Do. The recommended action coefficient is determined, for example, in association with the amount and quality of information provided by the information provider, and is set to a larger value as the amount and quality of information is higher. The first point giving unit 412 gives points of the calculated number of issued points to the information provider.

For example, when the information provider edits the text of the column that has already been transmitted, the first point giving unit 412 sets the recommended action coefficient to 0 because the information provider does not transmit high-value information. Do not issue points. On the other hand, when the number of characters is increased by editing the text of the column, the first point provision unit 412 may provide 30 points per character to the number of increase characters. The first point giving unit 412, applied when adding the added value in the column is higher content (e.g. images), for one additional image, higher point than added value lower content (e.g. 3000 points) You may

The action of the information provider to whom the first point giving unit 412 gives points is, for example, as follows.
(1) payment to the information provider by the transfer-only account (2) Consumption of transfer already point by point transferee (3) point transfer by the information provider (4) new registration of information users by the information provider (5) Posting a new column by an informant (6) Answering a question to the questioner by an informant (7) Registering the best answer to the answer of an informant by a questioner (8) Sending a new document by an informant

(Second point granting unit 413)
The second point assignment unit 413 assigns points based on the result of accumulating the evaluations on the information provided by the information provider within a predetermined period. The points given by the second point giving unit 413 to the information provider are given as the information provider continues the recommended action, so the information provider gives the points by the second point giving unit 413 giving points. You can be motivated to take action recommendations on an ongoing basis.

The second point assignment unit 413 assigns points to the information provider based on the following evaluation content.
(1) Total number of points provided by the first point giving unit 412 within a predetermined period (cumulative number)
(2) Average value or total number (cumulative value) of evaluations from others on information provided to the marketplace by the information provider

(Campaign Point Granting Unit 414)
The campaign point granting unit 414 grants the information user the campaign point in order to provide the information user with an incentive for an activity that consumes points (for example, an activity of browsing information in the marketplace). Do. The campaign point giving unit 414 determines the number of campaign points to be given based on the consumption behavior that the information user uses information in the marketplace, which the activity monitoring unit 411 has identified by monitoring the action of the information user. The campaign point giving unit 414 determines the number of campaign points to be given, for example, by multiplying the amount of points other than the campaign points consumed by the information user within a predetermined evaluation period by a predetermined coefficient.

An information consumer can substantially reduce the point purchase cost by being given campaign points. As a result, the information user can obtain an advantage for information users who have not received campaign points or have a small number of offers. As described above, the campaign point granting unit 414 grants the campaign points, so that a mechanism for supporting the activity of the information user who has performed a large amount of action expected by the operator can be embedded in the marketplace. By providing such a mechanism, as operator intends, it is possible to activate the flow of information within the marketplace.

(Point consumption change unit 415)
The point consumption fluctuation unit 415 variably determines the point consumption amount to provide the information user with an incentive for behavior in the marketplace. Similar to the second point giving unit 413, the point consumption change unit 415 performs a predetermined evaluation period using a predetermined coefficient or calculation formula for the action of the information user (for example, the action involving the consumption of points). Evaluate information users within. Point consumption variation unit 415, point consumer behavior information user, and based on the evaluation result of the action without other points consumption, information user after the evaluation is, points necessary to use the predetermined information The amount of point consumption is determined, and the point consumption is updated each time the evaluation result is updated.

Operators have come to expect action a large amount of information the user is, by that point consumption is reduced in the case to obtain a good evaluation, it is possible to obtain an advantage over other Marketplace users. That is, the point consumption fluctuation unit 415 has a mechanism for automatically supporting the activity of the user who performs a large amount of action expected by the operator in the market, and the point consumption fluctuation unit 415 Together with other incentives, it provides a mechanism that can make the intention of the operator in the market stronger.

(Point annihilation processing unit 416)
The point annihilation processing unit 416 causes some or all of the points held by the information provider to disappear as time passes. The point annihilation processing unit 416 annihilates the points in order to perform deduction evaluation on the behavior of the information provider within a predetermined period, based on a coefficient or a formula set in advance by the operator. Specifically, when the information provider performs an action contrary to the operator's expectation in the marketplace over a predetermined period, the point annihilation processing unit 416 partially or entirely holds the points possessed by the information provider. Disappear.

The point annihilation processing unit 416 annihilates the points, for example, when the amount of the recommended action performed by the information provider within a predetermined period is less than a threshold. Specifically, if the amount of information provided by the information provider in the marketplace within the predetermined period is less than the predetermined amount, the point annihilation processing unit 416 determines the length of the period during which the information is not provided. Disappear an amount of points according to the When the quality of the information provided by the information provider is lower than a predetermined level, the point annihilation processing unit 416 may cause the point to disappear according to the quality of the information. The point annihilation processing unit 416, for example, annihilates the point of the information provider who provided the incorrect information. By doing this, the point management system S1 can motivate the information provider to frequently provide accurate information.

When the number of points transferred by the information provider to the information user within the predetermined period is less than the predetermined number, the point annihilation processing unit 416 subtracts the number of transferred points from the number of points to be transferred within the period. Alternatively, points of an amount corresponding to a value multiplied by a predetermined coefficient may be eliminated. By doing this, the point management system S1 can motivate the information provider to actively transfer points, thereby activating the marketplace.

As described above, the point annihilation processing unit 416 can motivate the information provider to actively perform the recommended action by causing the information provider who has a low frequency of executing the recommended action to annihilate the points. As a result, it becomes possible to activate the distribution of information within the marketplace, as the operator intends.

(Fee charge collection unit 417)
The fee collection unit 417 manages the fee collected from the information provider when the points acquired by the information provider by the first point assignment unit 412 and the second point assignment unit 413 are transferred to the information user. As the fee, a fee per point (hereinafter referred to as a unit fee) is previously determined by the operator, and the fee collection unit 417 is a system of the information provider for an amount obtained by multiplying the number of points transferred by the unit fee. Move from the cash passbook to the operator's system cash notebook. Note that it is optional whether the information provider receives compensation for the points transferred from the information user, and if the information provider receives compensation from the information user for more than the fee, the received compensation and fee and The difference is the benefit of the informant.

By transferring points from the information provider to the information user, the points are moved from the point passbook of the information provider to the point passbook of the information user, and the number of points after movement is recorded in the point passbook. The fee collection unit 417 monitors the point passbook and system cash passbook of the information provider, and provides transferable point number information indicating the number of transferable points to the information provider.

The fee collection unit 417 determines the number of transferable points based on the number of points held by the information provider, the cash balance, and the unit fee. The fee collection unit 417 determines the number of transferable points by selecting the smaller of the number of points held by the information provider or the value obtained by dividing the cash balance of the information provider by the unit fee. For example, when the fee is set to 1 point 0.4 yen, the fee collection unit 417 sets the number of owned points as the first upper limit number (for example, 2 million points), and holds the number of held cash (cash balance) / per unit fee. The second upper limit (for example, cash balance ¥ 600,000, ¥ 0.4 = 1.5 million points). The fee collection unit 417 sets the smaller number (1.5 million points of the second upper limit number in the above example) of the first upper limit number and the second upper limit number as the number of transferable points.

In addition, even if the information provider transfers points to the information user, when there is a problem that there is no payment from the information user, the information provider restricts the point consumption behavior of the information user. The point management server 3 can be instructed to forcibly collect the transferred points from the point user's passbook. The upper limit of the number of points that can be collected by the information provider is the number of points assigned by the information provider. The information provider can collect points up to the upper limit within the balance of points held by the information user. When the information provider collects points, the fee collection unit 417 executes a process of returning the collected fee from the cash passbook of the operator to the cash passbook of the information provider based on the number of points collected.

(Incentive granting department 418)
Incentive money granting section 418, the overall ranking or regional version ranking of the information provider determined by ranking determination section 42, the coefficient set in advance by the operator, and the total amount of the fee paid by the information provider within a predetermined period. Determine the incentive amount based on The incentive payment unit 418 executes processing for transferring the determined incentive amount from the system cash passbook of the operator to the system cash passbook of the information provider.

From the information provider's point of view, acquiring incentives offers the following benefits:
(1) It is possible to increase income, so that the business base can be strengthened. (2) Since it is possible to provide more points cheaper and more, while strengthening the relationship with the information user who is the customer, and the information user Increase opportunities to contact with (3) You can invest for the services of the main business taking into consideration the profit obtained from the incentives

Accordingly, this way, the incentive is paid to the information provider, it is possible to induce the market in the direction in which the operator intends. For example, if the operator wants to distribute a lot of points and build a marketplace where a lot of good information can be exchanged, the information provider can be proactive in providing information by offering incentives. You can motivate users to try to transfer points.

The incentive payment unit 418 can set the upper limit value of the amount of incentive to, for example, the fee paid by the information provider to the operator. By doing so, the information provider can be motivated to actively transfer points, since substantially no fee will be paid to the operator when transferring points. The incentive payment unit 418 may use an amount obtained by multiplying the fee paid by the information provider to the operator by a coefficient set in advance by the administrator as the upper limit of the incentive.

[Example screen of information provision site]
FIG. 21 is a view showing an example of a screen displayed on the information use terminal 2 when the information use terminal 2 accesses the information providing site of the present embodiment. FIG. 21A shows a screen on which a plurality of information users (A child and B child) who use the information use terminal 2 post questions to the point management server 3. In FIG. 21A, together with the contents of the question, the closing date of the answer and the number of points given to the person who answered are displayed.

FIG. 21B is a diagram showing the answers provided by a plurality of information providers (agent X, agent Y) to the question issued by the child A among the questions shown in FIG. 21A. In FIG. 21 (b), the answer of the agent Y is selected as the best answer by the questioner A. In such a case, the management unit 41 may give all the points set by the requester to the information provider who has posted the selected answer as the best answer, and distributes the points to the answer selected as the best answer. The number of points to be made may be greater than the number of points to be distributed to other respondents.

FIG. 22 is a diagram showing an example of a screen for the information user to search for an information provider, and is an example of provider information provided by the information providing unit 43 to the information use terminal 2. FIG. 22 shows a state in which a screen for searching for an agent is selected among the screen for searching for an agent, the screen for searching for a professional, and the screen for searching for a consultant.

Information the user, in order to be able to obtain information about the region of interest to itself, information use terminal 2, the second region associated with the first regional attribute information and its associated information providing terminal 1 Based on the attribute information, it is determined whether to obtain the provided information from the information providing terminal 1 or not. The first area attribute information is information indicating the place of residence or activities range of information providers, the second region attribute information, information the user of the residence, scope of activities, or areas where information the user is interested Information indicating The information use terminal 2 selectively acquires, for example, information provided from the information provision terminal 1 associated with the first area attribute information corresponding to the area set by the information user.

Specifically, on the screen shown in FIG. 22, the information user inputs the area in which he / she is interested. In the screen shown in FIG. 22, the area where the information user himself / herself is living may be input as an initial value. In this case, the information providing unit 43, an agent that is associated with the input area, area Version rank order determination unit 42 determines the display in descending order. In the example shown in FIG. 22, the display screen in the case where the number of points given to the agent Y is the largest and the number of points given to the agent X is the second highest in a predetermined evaluation period is shown. As described above, since the information provider who has a large number of points given in the evaluation period is displayed at the top on the search screen and the probability of connecting to the business is increased, the information provider has the information providing site as shown in FIG. Will be motivated to provide good information.

[How to determine the number of points given]
FIG. 23 and FIG. 24 are tables for explaining the point giving process performed by the management unit 41. In FIGS. 23 and 24, it is determined based on the content of information provided by each of a plurality of information providers, an evaluation point for the provided information, a coefficient associated with an action for providing information, an evaluation point and a coefficient The number of granted points and the cumulative number of granted points which is the number of points given each information provider in the evaluation period are shown.

Rows in FIG. 23 and FIG. 24 correspond to one action of the information provider providing information, and are arranged in time series. The information provider A provides information twice within the period shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, and it can be seen that the cumulative points increase. The order determination unit 42 can determine the order of a plurality of information providers based on the total number of granted points in a predetermined evaluation period.

According to FIG. 23, for the information selected by the information user as the best answer, the evaluation point 5 is given, and the largest number of points is given. On the other hand, when the evaluation point 1 is given, the smallest number of points is given.

In FIG. 23, the coefficient is fixed to 100, but in FIG. 24, different coefficients are assigned depending on the evaluation points. When the operator wants to highly evaluate superior information, as shown in FIG. 24, the operator gives points when the evaluation point is high by increasing the coefficient when the evaluation point is high. The number can be more than that shown in FIG. Thus, the operator can control the information provider's behavior by adjusting the coefficient.

[Processing sequence]
FIG. 25 is a diagram showing a processing sequence among the information providing terminal 1, the information using terminal 2 and the point management server 3 when a question and an answer are exchanged at the information providing site shown in FIG. First, when the information user posts a question on the information use terminal 2 (S11), the information use terminal 2 transmits the posted question to the point management server 3. The point management server 3 posts the received question on the information providing site (S12).

Subsequently, when the information provider performs an operation for browsing the information provision site in the information provision terminal 1 (S13), the information provision terminal 1 requests the point management server 3 for the information provision site screen. The point management server 3 that has received the request, sends the information providing site screen to the information providing terminal 1, the information providing terminal 1 displays the information providing site (S14).

The point management server 3 gives points to the information provider who uses the information providing terminal 1 in response to the response being transmitted from the information providing terminal 1 (S16).

Then, the point management server 3 transmits the information providing site screen the answer by the information provider is reflected in the information use terminal 2, information use terminal 2 displays the information providing site screen answer is reflected ( S17). In the information use terminal 2, when the information user selects the answer by the information provider as the best answer (S18), the information use terminal 2 transmits the evaluation information indicating the evaluation for the answer by the information provider to the point management server 3 Do.

The point management server 3 further gives points to the information provider based on the evaluation information received from the information use terminal 2 (S19). For example, the point management server 3 gives the information provider a point corresponding to the answer posted by the information provider being selected as the best answer. The point management server 3 updates the ranking of the information providers for each predetermined evaluation period. For example, the point management server 3 calculates the total number of points given to the information provider in a predetermined period in the past in response to the new points being given, and based on the total number of points, The order is updated (S20).

[Modification]
In the above description, the member store is the information provider, but the member store may be the information provider and the information user. A person or company to provide information to the marketplace as an information provider, if you wish to use the function of information the user has, by using the e-mail address that is used in the account as an information provider, as the information user Can create an account. In this case, whether the information provider uses the function for the information provider or the function for the information user by switching the member attribute using the operation menu after logging in using the account? Can be selected. It is also possible for the information user to use the function of the information provider by similar processing.

For example, a paid employment introduction company (agent), which is a member store serving as an information provider, utilizes a hiring client (company) using a hiring market place in which the point management system S1 is embedded (e.g. prompt you to companies sending of information and job information) to, the adoption advertising expenses of client companies as a source of revenue, selling point in the real market, the merchant may be as revenue. However, in this case, the pay placement agency needs to carry out the action recommended by the operator in the marketplace to obtain points in advance.

Also, the client company (company member who is an information user) consumes the points purchased from the agent in the real market in the hiring market place, which is a kind of market place, and various information intended (information about the hiring, employment, job change market) The information may be provided by transmitting to the job seeker (the changed form of the corporate member) who is an individual member who is an information user.

Also, individual members who are job seekers (one form of company members etc.) can select their desired company and occupation from various information transmitted by company members, affiliated stores, and individual members, or useful agents You may use the transmitted information by consulting with. In the case where the information user utilizes the information provided by the other members, or consumption point the amount of the case of providing information to other member may be set publisher any way. For example, the individual member may set the consumption point amount in all information use and information provision to zero.

In addition, individual members may send evaluations from various viewpoints to a company or a company that they have worked for in the past or present to other members (for example, individual members, company members, affiliated stores). . And, in this case, other members can also browse (information use) information on companies provided by other members in addition to the information transmitted from the company itself.

In addition, when the affiliated store, as a member of the information provider, has a difficult event in daily work and can not draw an answer on its own, asking other member stores to answer a question (provide information) on a bulletin board (information use ) May be possible. By doing this, the information provider can obtain information necessary for deriving an answer as an information user who uses information provided by other information providers. Note that a member store may read (use information) a column or the like transmitted by another member store, or may evaluate a column by another member store. In addition, for active merchant activities in the marketplace, it may be ranked so as to increase the information frequency of contact to other users.

The marketplace, for example, limited the affiliation store as a marriage counselor, and limited the information users to singles who have all or part of the same functions as corporate members and individual members in the employment marketplace described above. It may be a market place exclusively for marriage activities. In this case, the point management system S1 can construct a marketplace dedicated to marriage by two types of members: an information provider, a marriage counselor, and an information user, single members. In view of the utility of the marketplace, point management system S1, the information users, men a first information user, or attributes assigned to women is the second information users, various services It may be characterized and provided for each attribute.

The marketplace is a marketplace dedicated to real estate, for example, with a member store serving as an information provider as a real estate broker, and an information consumer limited to individuals, sole proprietors, corporations, or groups who intend to buy, sell or lend real estate. It may be Furthermore, the information user of this marketplace has functions for sellers or lenders having all or part of the same functions as the corporate members in the employment marketplace described above, and functions similar to the individual members in the employment marketplace. Both functions for buyers or borrowers having all or part may be individually provided in the same information user account.

The marketplace, for example, uses a member store as an information provider as an insurance broker (insurance broker), an information user as an insurance company who intends to sell insurance products, and an individual who wants to purchase insurance products, an individual business owner It may be a market dedicated to insurance, limited to corporations, or organizations. The information user of this marketplace is the same as the insurance company which is the first information user having all or part of the same function as the corporate member in the employment marketplace described above, and the individual member in the employment marketplace. It may be an individual, an individual business owner, a corporation, or a group who is a second information user having all or part of the functions.

In this case, the first information user not only consumes the owned points and uses the provided information from the information provider, but also consumes the owned points and information such as the company's solvency margin ratio and disclosure. It may be provided to the second information user. In addition, the first of the information user, the consuming point to hold information of insurance products of their own, may be provided to the second of information users.

When the second information user uses information provided by other members, or when providing information to other members, the amount of consumption points may be freely set by the operator. . For example, the point consumption change unit 415 may set the consumption point amount in all the information use and information provision by the second information user to 0 based on an instruction from the operator. And, information that can be handled in such marketplaces is not limited to the information described in this specification, and, for example, marketplaces that deal with information on banking-related financial instruments (affiliated shops are financial planners etc.), securities-based financial instruments Market information handling information (affiliated store is a financial planner etc.), a market place handling information on products or services provided by a store (affiliated shop a blogger etc.), or a market place handling medical or nursing information May be market place information provided by a social worker etc.).

The marketplace, for example, uses a member store as an information provider as a car critic, a car-related industry reporter, or a columnist, etc., and a car user who wants to sell a car, and an individual who wants to buy a car. There may be a market place dedicated to cars, limited to a sole proprietor, a corporation, or a group. The information user of this marketplace is the same as the automobile manufacturer who is the first information user having all or part of the same function as the corporate member in the employment marketplace and the same as the individual member in the employment marketplace above. It may be an individual, an individual business owner, a corporation, or a group who is a second information user having all or part of the functions.

In this case, the first information user not only consumes the owned points and uses the provided information from the information provider but also consumes the owned points and wants to disseminate it on their own owned technology and branding strategy Information or the like may be provided to the second information user. Further, the first information user, its automotive consuming point carrying, or related information, may be provided to the second information user.

Note that a marketplace dedicated to automobiles may provide a service as a three-dimensional virtual space using virtual reality (VR) technology, and such a marketplace may be, for example, a home. A service may be provided for the building industry to be built, the tourism industry that operates resort facilities, etc., or the real estate distribution industry that offers used housing etc. In this way, the user can provide or use more complete information.

Furthermore, as a modification other than the above, for example, in the marketplace, the information provider leaves excess holding points, as in the case where there is no opportunity to transfer the holding points to the information user, or when there are few. In this case, it may be possible to transfer the possessed points to other information providers who need the points without being collected by the management server. This makes it easier to distribute points within the marketplace. Further, the information user in need of points, get more points, and easier to consume, it is possible to activate the marketplace.

Also, as another modified example, there may be, for example, a point exchange marketplace that enables the movement of points between a plurality of marketplaces. In this case, users who can use the point exchange marketplace may be limited to the information provider. An information provider can use point exchange marketplaces to exchange holdings and deposited money with other information providers in the same marketplace or in different marketplaces. This makes it easier to distribute points across multiple marketplaces, not just individual marketplaces. In addition, information users who need points can acquire points more easily and can be more easily consumed, and can activate respective marketplaces used by the information users. In addition, the fee charged to the operator when the information provider transfers points to other information providers in the point exchange marketplace and the incentive paid by the operator are arbitrary according to the setting information set by the operator. It can be controlled by means of

Then, the operator builds the marketplace, changes the setting information of the marketplace, and changes the marketplace and makes the marketplace more consistent with the aspect of the real market and the purpose of the operator. It will be possible to strongly activate the information distribution of marketplaces, and it will be possible to effectively distribute real market information as well as marketplaces.

Furthermore, as a modification other than the above, setting information used to determine the amount of points, fees, and the like given in the marketplace may be updated using artificial intelligence technology instead of the operator itself. In this case, the point management server 3 having artificial intelligence may determine the setting information, and the point management server 3 acquires setting information from an external artificial intelligence server (hereinafter referred to as an AI server), and obtains the acquired setting information. Various processes in the marketplace may be performed on the basis of this.

In order to enable the AI server to generate appropriate setting information, the point management server 3 sends the information providing terminal 1 and the information using terminal 2 and the point management server to the AI server connected to the point management server 3. Input the data sent and received between 3 and 3. The AI server generates setting information data for updating some or all setting information used in the marketplace based on the input data and market place information, and the AI server generates the generated setting information data. The setting information may be updated by transmitting to the point management server 3.

Also, the point management server 3 that has received the setting information data transmitted from the AI server may not immediately update the setting information. Further, the AI server may not immediately transmit the generated setting information data to the point management server 3. The point management server 3 may update the original setting information to new setting information after an arbitrary period has elapsed since the AI server generated the setting information data. In this case, the organizer of the marketplace may notify the participants of the marketplace of the updated new setting information within an arbitrary time period.

In addition, the notification method of the setting information to the participant of a marketplace is arbitrary. For example, a setting information change special site or the like (one of information providing sites) may be provided in the marketplace so that participants of the marketplace can grasp the latest setting information by accessing the site.

As described above, the generation of setting information by the AI server causes the AI server to automatically process the updating operation of the setting information which is complicated when the market place is enlarged or a plurality of marketplaces are constructed. Can. As a result, it is possible to reduce the time and effort of the operator and to derive effective setting information for the marketplace without intervention of human error and human error. In addition, the generation of the setting information by the AI server makes it possible to shorten the interval for updating the setting information, which contributes to the effective development of the marketplace.

Furthermore, as a modification other than the above, it is conceivable that the point management system S1 provides a plurality of marketplaces simultaneously. When the point management system S1 provides a plurality of marketplaces simultaneously, the information provider and the information user may be able to use different marketplaces simultaneously by using the same account. That is, the information provider and the information user can share cash, points, and their own information in a plurality of marketplaces.

Specifically, when there are a plurality of marketplaces operated by the same operator, the user, affiliated store, and the operator may be able to use a plurality of marketplaces with one account. . In this case, the point management server 3 may manage the system cash passbook of the affiliated store or the operator and the point passbook of the user or the affiliated store for each account, and it is common across multiple marketplaces. You may manage. In addition, the point management server 3 may also give the benefits given to the user and the member store over a plurality of marketplaces. Furthermore, the point management server 3 may also evaluate the evaluation of the information user and the information provider used when granting a benefit, based on the action across a plurality of marketplaces.

In this way, the increased fluidity points throughout including a plurality of marketplace, and stable or increased value of the point, by confidence against participants points to Marketplace rises marketplace It also leads to an increase in credibility.

Also, by linking multiple marketplaces in this way, the operator can also operate a non-profit market place that is expected to be less profitable by operating with other profitable market places. It will be possible. At this time, when determining the consumption point amount of the user, the evaluation of the affiliated store, etc., by using the setting information determined in view of the public interest factor, the service at the useful public interest market is provided. Will be able to In this way, linking a plurality of marketplaces also helps to develop the low-profit, so-called utility-type advertising market.

Subsequently, the point consumption unit 133 is a point to be subtracted from the balance of the oldest record whose balance is not 0 among the records pertaining to the acquisition of points recorded in the point gain and loss history T7 of the second user. The point subtraction processing is performed for each recording until the number is reached, and when the points acquired by the transfer from the first user are subtracted, notification processing to the point reduction unit 134 is performed.

For example, as shown in FIG. 33 (a), if a second user acquires 300 points by transfer on July 1 and acquires 100 points as a benefit on July 5, If the points have not been consumed, the total of 300 points recorded on July 1 and the entire 100 points recorded on July 5 are recorded as the balance.

Thereafter, for example, the second user issues a request for updating the web page on July 10, and the point consumer unit 133 responds to the request by the second user. Suppose that the number of points to be subtracted from the points held by is calculated to be 350 points. In this case, the point consumption unit 133 first subtracts all 300 points from the balance 300 points of the July 1st record to subtract points from the oldest record, the July 1st record. At this time, as shown in FIG. 33 (b), the balance of the July 1 record is updated to 0 points, and the user ID is recorded with reference to the transfer source information of the record. The user ID of the transfer source user is associated with the number of points (300 in the case of this example) subtracted from the recording, and notified to the point reduction unit 134.

By the above process, the point consuming unit 133 can subtract 300 points out of 350 points to be subtracted. Subsequently, the point consumption unit 133 subtracts the remaining 50 points from the next oldest record, the July 5 record. The balance for the July 5 record is 100 points, so 50 points will remain after subtracting 50 points. At this time, as shown in FIG. 33 (c), the point consumption unit 133 updates the balance for the July 5 record to 50 points, refers to the information of the transfer source for the record, and the user ID is Since the information is not recorded, the process is ended without notifying the point reducing unit 134.

A business entity is an entity that sends out information that it wants to obtain or send out valuable information provided by Associates, whether paid or not. When it is going to carry out the activity with consumption of virtual reality in media market, it is an entity that transfers virtual reality from Associates and uses media market.
(3) "Individual" aspect of the second user or second user (hereinafter referred to as an individual)
An individual is an entity that sends out information that it wants to obtain or send out valuable information provided by Associates, whether paid or not. When it is going to carry out the activity with consumption of virtual reality in media market, it is an entity that transfers virtual reality from Associates and uses media market.

The component 4 "object to provide service" will be described.
The targets in the real market that the media market provides services are as follows.
(1) "Region" From the present embodiment, virtual reality is able to make the value uniform and constant throughout the virtual market including the media market, and the distribution impediment factor caused by distributing widely across regions with different purchasing power parity. Since it does not generate, in this embodiment, the area in the real market which provides a service can be anything. In other words, if the service is developed on the largest scale, the service provision area will be the whole world.
(2) "Participant" Media market target participants are associates who intend to provide valuable information as copyrighted works to other users, as well as individuals who wish to acquire or transmit information, and businesses. It is a In other words, it is all actors that carry out economic activities in the service area.
(3) "Requirements" The infrastructure requirements necessary for using the media market are the application for logging in to the media market, connected to the communication network for transmitting and receiving data to and from the server of the operator. There is an environment where participants can use the information processing terminal equipment.

The "shell of the component" will be described.
As the best mode of the present embodiment, the media market according to the above components is represented as one form of virtual market, but the virtual market of the present embodiment is to connect a plurality of virtual markets in parallel to function. From the example media market, users can easily move to other virtual markets, for example, there may be a virtual market that provides a meeting place for men and women, We believe that there may be a virtual market that promotes the sale and sale of real estate, and there may also be exhibition facilities for houses using VR technology, exhibition facilities for cars, and tourist facilities such as attraction facilities. That is, in this embodiment, the problem solving ability can be further enhanced in this embodiment, and these are considered as the best mode as a whole.

In addition, one form of virtual market is to facilitate the distribution of virtual currency throughout the virtual market including media market, that is, to facilitate the purchase and sale of virtual currency that associates are acquiring and intending to transfer to other users. As a matter of fact, we will establish the “Valcharancy Trading Exchange” (hereinafter referred to as “Trading Exchange”), which can effectively carry out the purchase and sale of virtual currency among users. By doing this, in the present embodiment, the problem solving power can be further enhanced, and the virtual market group as an integral unit including the exchange is considered as the best mode.

The relationship between the associate (first user) and the business operator (second user) will be described.
In order to obtain an account on the side of the Associates, you must first have an account on the side of the business operator (hereinafter referred to as the Business Member) and then proceed as a business member to a prescribed procedure (for example, Media Market as Associates acting as a reporter) Apply to the operator to register in the registration criteria (set by the operator)), you can get an account of the aspect of the Associates.

The rights acquired as Associates do not extend to the business members even with the same account. For example, a business member a who has an Associates side account in the media market may not consume the business as a business member in the media market and other virtual markets, even if he holds a large amount of virtual reality as the associate a '. Can not. If you want to consume virtual capital as a business member, whether it is a 'or a', a 'from the side a' of the Associates to the side a of the business member just as you transfer virtual reality to other users. You have to transfer the virtual currency.

Also, just because a has aspect 側面 of the Associates in the media market does not mean that it has aspects of the Associates in other virtual markets. If you want an Associates Aspect account in the other virtual markets, you have to go through each specific procedure in each virtual market.

In other words, a that has the aspect of the business member (it may have only this aspect) can use each virtual market as the business member a through the entire virtual market group, but a virtual market where a is somewhere If you want to act as an associate at a, in each market a must take the prescribed procedures.

Thereafter, Associates a 'is evaluated by the server for the virtual market usage behavior and is given virtual currency, and at the same time, the credibility as the Associates is managed by the server in the form of grant of credit limit. Become. Note that a ‘is an authorized member who is recognized by the operator as satisfying the requirements as an entity capable of transmitting the component 1“ information to be mainly handled ”in the media market.

Describe an individual (a second user, an entity that has basically the same function as a business member).
The second user in the media market includes an individual (hereinafter referred to as an individual member) in addition to the business member. The individual members basically have the same function as the business members, and it is not impossible to have the aspect of the Associates only if they are recognized by the operator. (For example, with regard to an individual who is a celebrity and that the operator recognizes as having the ability to transmit information, the operator may be invited to be registered with Associates as a columnist or essayist.)

In the initial stage of the media market, individual members only acquire the copyrighted work provided by Associates free of charge, acquire information transmitted by business members, and acquire information transmitted by individual members. It is an existence. Along with the basic income system, which will be described later, and the increase in usage time, this will allow individual members to acquire paid content or use paid services. For example, the work provided by Associates is free, partially paid, or all paid, and the amount of consideration is at the discretion of Associates, and the work provided by Associates favorite for individual members is paid. Even I want to get it. Speaking in the near thing, it is a traditional mail magazine. In the real world, in particular, the works of celebrities are considered to be valuable. From such a thing, in order to acquire paid content, an individual member who has become accustomed to use, like a business member, becomes greater in desire for virtuality, regardless of the difference between large and small.

In addition, individual members who have been used to the media market want to disseminate information. In order to get this done effectively, the server also has the function of evaluating the information transmission act for individual members (as well as business members) (it also has the function of evaluating the information acquisition act) Discounting the consumption of virtual currency associated with superior use of the media market (see first consumption activity described later), based on the evaluation value, to have the same meaning as the grant of virtual currency to associates In order to be able to distribute virtual currency free of charge (see the consumption tax and basic income described later) or as a basic income. The same applies to business members.

In other words, the virtual reality supply system process of “the virtual reality supply based on the setting information and performed by the server based on evaluation” is not only the assignment of virtual reality to the associates but also the virtual reality for the whole user. It also includes the function of “control” of the entire virtual market including the media market by “supply control” of And all these start are started from "the evaluation to the user based on setting information (calculation of the evaluation value to the user's action based on setting information)".

Explain "Generation and Granting of Virtual Chalcencies Based on Evaluation on Associates".
In the media market, 活動 a ', which is active in the aspect of Associates, has a virtual currency grant based on an evaluation value calculated based on setting information. The evaluation value and the amount of virtual currency given are the setting information set in advance by the operator, the evaluation of the service usage act of a 'by the server (information provision act), and a' from other users. If there is also an evaluation on information provision by a user (such as a simple act <like! Or ☆ 3 like>), the user's information acquisition act <browsing is inferred from data transmission and reception between the user terminal and the server It is determined based on the time, the operation while browsing, the number of browsing users, the total number of these, etc.) and the evaluation and assignment by various algorithms stored in the storage unit. This process is the starting point of the supply of virtual reality to the virtual market.

Specifically, for example, a 'having a side of columnist Associates in the media market posts a column as an associate, free of charge, partially paid, or all paid, and this is viewed or downloaded by other users. When doing this, the server calculates an evaluation value taking into account the amount of the content of the act itself that posted the column, and temporarily assigns virtual reality to a ′ based on the calculated evaluation value. Then, the server evaluates, based on the setting information, how other users have evaluated the copyright column provided by a over a predetermined period of time as a grant to a 'of secondary virtual reality. A value is calculated, and virtuality is given to a 'in a secondary (every predetermined period).

Next, a method of calculating an “evaluation value” based on setting information for information (free content) such as a work provided by Associates free of charge will be described.
(Determining the evaluation value for each free content)
(1) "Number of browsing times evaluation value" The number of browsing times evaluation value is calculated with reference to how many users browsed the free content in a predetermined period.
Setting value a Reading people's magnification a 'Reading number multiple when evaluating with the ratio to total reading times a "Evaluation value for the top reading people number of reading times evaluation value = number of views x a + number of views x a' x (number of views / total Number of browsing times) + a “
(2) “Browsing time evaluation value” The browsing time evaluation value is calculated by referring to how many seconds the user browses the free content in a predetermined period.
Setting value b Reading time magnification b 'Reading time magnification when evaluating with ratio to total reading time b "Evaluation value for reading time upper rank reading time evaluation value = reading time x b + reading time x b' x (reading time / total Reading time) + b "
(3) "Reader evaluation value" The viewer evaluation value is calculated by referring to the evaluation number (total number of likes)-(total number of likes) obtained by the free content in a predetermined period, and the total number of acquired ☆.
Setting value c Viewer rating magnification c 'Viewer rating rating in the case of evaluation with the total amount "viewer rating rating for the top rating of viewer rating viewer rating value = viewer rating x c + viewer rating x c' x (view Evaluation / total viewer evaluation) + c "
(4) If it is considered that the evaluation for the free content is recognized other than (1) to (3), the evaluation value is calculated by an appropriate method. (Such as a long seller over a given period or a prominent rating)
(5) Sum of the evaluation value for the free content calculated in the above (1) to (4) (determines the evaluation for each associate)
(6) "Free content delivery evaluation value" The free content delivery evaluation value is calculated by referring to the total amount of free content (number of transmissions x internal capacity) sent by the associate during a predetermined period.
Setting value d Free content sending amount multiplying factor d 'Free content sending amount multiplying factor d taking into consideration the ratio to total free content sending amount Evaluation value for top free content sending amount Free content sending evaluation value = sending free content amount x d + sending free Content amount x d 'x (Delivery free content amount x Total outgoing free content amount) + d "
(7) General value of the above-mentioned (5) Associates belonging to Associates = (6) + (7)
(Other setting information)
Control of evaluation weight for each category to which free content belongs

By doing this, the operator can control the degree of evaluation for free content and associates by arbitrarily updating the setting information, and the free content provided for the virtual market including the media market can be controlled. The quality and quantity can be increased and guided in the intended direction.

In addition, a process called "evaluation correction algorithm" is added to the evaluation algorithm (and the virtual reality assignment algorithm). This does not treat all evaluations by the other users with respect to the information provided by the Associates equally, but evaluates the user, who is the evaluator, the Associates, who is the evaluator, and the provided information, which is the object to be evaluated. And is a process of correcting the evaluation value.

By adding this process, the information provided by the Associates who has caused the user to acquire information that the user usually does not obtain much is highly evaluated, and the Associates are highly evaluated, while the user is usually well The information provided by the Associates who has made it possible for the user to additionally acquire such information as obtained, and the Associates will be evaluated as low, and the degree of correction can be obtained by updating the setting information. , And user's tendency observation period can be changed.

By doing this, for example, the economic review column c, which is read by the individual member b who reads the gossip column frequently, is regarded as highly appreciated by the individual member b, and the individual member who reads the economic comment column well. The evaluation from the individual member d to the economic criticism column c which d was to read is lower than the evaluation from the individual member b to the economic criticism column c. In short, simply speaking, "the weight of the evaluation is significantly different between when the same person continues to evaluate the same person without reflection, and when a new person starts to evaluate a new person" Therefore, it aims to maximize the value of the media market by adjusting the supply balance of the virtual reality to make it easier for new associates of Associates and user innovation to occur.

The server is easy to be acquired by the user from the information acquisition act of the user in the past predetermined period acquiring information provided by the associates in the virtual market group such as media market based on the setting information stored in advance in the server Calculate the provided information category and the information acquisition rate of the associate who is an information provider who is easily acquired.

Then, from the setting information and various information acquisition rates calculated for each user, the evaluation correction rate for the act of acquiring the information provided by the user's associates is calculated, and the evaluation value is corrected by adding an evaluation. Adjust the balance of the amount of virtual currency assigned to the Associates based on the value.

Based on the provided information category that has not been acquired by the user and the information acquisition rate of associates that have not been acquired, and based on the acquired acquired information category and the acquired frequency of acquired associates, 0 Calculate the information acquisition rate for a predetermined period (for example, one week, one month, or one year) of the user between 100 and 100, and subtract this from 100 (calculate the rate at which information is not acquired), In the calculated value, a coefficient as setting information stored in advance in the server (for example, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 1.5 or 2.0, 10.0, 100.0, 1000.0, etc. ) And add 100 to this. Then, division is performed so that the maximum value of the calculated values is 1, and various evaluation correction rates are derived. Thus, a provided information category for which the information acquisition rate in a predetermined period is 0, or an evaluation correction rate closer to 0 (not 0) as the information acquisition rate is higher with an associate value of 1 is derived. ※ In addition, calculation formula may be anything, for example, it may be changed into calculation formula that the upper and lower width of correction factor becomes larger or smaller, and by updating setting information, the operator can calculate what kind of function It can also be set.

In addition, as for the setting information that is the basis for determining all the values including the amount of virtual currency, since the operator can update it at any time, it is possible to control the supply of virtual currency, so that the virtual including the media market It is also possible to control the entire market. By doing this, the problem solving ability is enhanced in the present embodiment.

Explain "transfer of virtual currency from the first user to the second user, and charging and refunding".
With regard to the virtual reality acquired in the aspect of the Associates, the Associates transfer the virtual reality they possess to the second user's side of their own, as the Associates aspect does not have the function to consume it. Or the other second user (or other Associates * described below), but for this virtual key "transfer" process, the server is based on preset configuration information. , And charge the transfer source (the side of the associate in transfer between the same account).

The charging process is executed for each "transfer" process, and posting (storage of processing data) is made in the system cash passbook of the server established in advance in the Associates, and is posted in the virtual currency passbook of the server established in advance by the user. (The process data is stored). In other words, bookkeeping remembers when, to whom (from whom), what, what, how, what, what, how much, and how the virtual currency supplied to the virtual market is distributed, and to which the server is charged Associates are in a mode of constructing a database capable of grasping collectively what activities they are doing and how they are charged (causing accounts payable).

In addition, in transfer of virtual reality by the Associates to the second user, consideration for any arrangement between the parties will be paid from the second user to the Associates, but such payment will be delayed, etc. The Associates may be forced to recover from the second user the unused portion (retention) of virtual currency that has been transferred to the second user, assuming that there is an irregular It is giving the function.

And, if the retained amount is less than the recovered amount, only the retained amount will be recovered, and for the uncollected portion, since the Associates have a claim for the second user, It also provides the ability for the Associates to limit the use of the second user's virtual market until the second user repays the debt. By doing this, morals of buying and selling of virtual currency, which is free trade, can be improved, and at the same time, an effect of supporting healthy market trading can be expected.

In addition, about the fee for Associates, it is managed as accounts payable (debt) of Associates, but the server automatically acquires payment data by depositing money to a predetermined bank account arbitrarily. This is reflected in the system cash passbook of the Associates, and the Associates' debt is reduced by the amount received.

In addition, based on the use of the Associates market for a predetermined period, the amount of transfer of virtual currency, and the setting information, the operator shall provide the Associates with a sales incentive fee (having a nature of refund). It is possible to And this will also be registered in the system cash passbook. In other words, the sales incentive money is a tax refund function, which is equivalent to reducing the Associates' debt, which has the effect of improving the operator's ability to control the virtual market.

Explain the "virtual currency exchange".
As for buying and selling virtual currency by Associates and the second user, it is considered as free trading, and based on the direct buying and selling of both in local trading (direct trading in real market), furthermore, it is connected to media market and virtual market Then, by establishing a single exchange (hereinafter referred to as exchange) that can buy and sell virtual currency on the network, it is possible to promote the overall circulation of virtual currency as follows.

In the exchange, there are participants as an aspect of Associates and (second aspect) a second user. In addition, there are participants from virtual markets other than the media market in the exchange, and as a whole virtual market group, it is in a form to promote circulation of virtual currency in one exchange. In other words, the exchange will be attended by various people in the real world and all users who are individuals and businesses with various backgrounds.

In addition, since the virtual lancy distributed in the virtual market has all existing expiration dates (durations that can be kept after being acquired) are set based on setting information that can be updated by the operator, for example, It makes it impossible for users to buy and sell virtual currency for investment or speculative purposes and to operate virtual markets in a way that is advantageous to them. In this way, with regard to the purchase and sale of virtual reality, for Associates, it becomes the transfer of virtual reality for the purpose of exchanging the virtual currency that it holds for another value, and for the second user, it is virtual It is the transfer of virtual currency for the purpose of exchange for currency, simple demand and supply, that is, for Associates the purpose of acquiring currency in the real world, and for the second user the purpose of using virtual market, It is possible to establish a very simple purpose trading.

The flow of trading on the exchange, this is the sale order of Associates and the second user's purchase order (or Associates's purchase order) using the auction method that has been adopted by stock exchanges etc. A mode that matches buy orders (* explained below) (It does not use a credit transaction, and there is a conventional primitive and simple machine process that combines a sell order and a buy order with spot transactions. * Because it is the same process as before) It is omitted. The server controls the virtual market by updating the setting information, based on the transition of the price of the virtual currency derived from the status of this transaction (for example, the buying order is strong and the value of the virtual currency is relatively increased) If it is the situation, update the setting information to increase the amount of virtual currency supply to the virtual market newly, or conversely, if the sell order is strong and the purchase order is weak, to reduce the amount of virtual chargeability to be newly supplied. The setting information is updated.

In this way, it is possible to reduce the user's virtual enthusiasm for virtuality to zero as much as possible, stabilize the value of virtuality, improve the circulation speed (the execution speed), and promote the circulation of virtualism. Promote distribution and have the effect of improving the value of the virtual market.

And about the transaction fee for the execution at the exchange, the operator has the function to charge for the Associates when the Associates transfer the virtual reality to (the aspect of) the second user. Because it is an exchange, it does not require processing to collect another new fee, and it is unified to collection processing of virtual currency transfer fee.

However, it is also preferable to favor direct transactions, for example, by lowering the transfer fee rate (or amount) at the time of direct transactions, and raising the transfer fee rate (or amount) at the time of trading at a exchange, or vice versa. Furthermore, the influence of the amount of refunds can also be achieved by the operator by updating the setting information, and this has the effect of enhancing the control of the virtual market by the operator.

Also, another function of the exchange is the exchange of virtual currency of associates. This is because, when there is an associate who has as a customer a second user who can sell a large amount of virtual currency in a local transaction, the associate (generated and provided by the virtual space supply system) produces the virtual associate. If the amount of currency alone does not keep up with the demand of the second user, the Associates gather virtual capitals from the other Associates, and the Associates put together this for the second User. By selling, it is possible to meet the demand of the second user.

And, for the second user who wants to consume virtual reality, it is possible to enjoy services etc. in the virtual market such as the media market, only by purchasing the virtual reality from the associates who trust in the local transaction. There is also an effect that the contents of the transaction can be freely determined between the parties in the local transaction and there is no need to use the exchange.
If you look at the exchange center focusing on this function, the exchange has a mechanism to eliminate the supply-demand gap between virtual currency areas (anything between cities, municipalities, prefectures, and nations). It can be said that By doing this, the circulation of virtual reality will be further promoted, and the speed of information circulation in the media market will have the effect of further accelerating.

Also, from the viewpoint of double taxation prevention, transfer of virtual currency to Associates' associates is not to be charged (tax exempt) not only at local transactions but also at exchanges. In this way, the Associates will be charged only when they transfer Virtual Key to the second consumer. For this reason, for Associates who intend to sell Virtual Carrance, sales to Associates and Sales to Associates can be performed so that the value obtained can be substantially the same. It means that it is sufficient to place an order only for the second user (only one order). In other words, if it is the Associates who browse the Selling Order, the server may display the exchange price of the amount automatically deducting the transfer fee scheduled to be collected from the Associates who made the selling order, and For the Associates who are trying to do so, it will be better if the public order is made for the purchase order at a price that takes into account the transfer fee charged at the time of sale to the second user after the deal. By doing this, it is possible for the Associates who are selling Virtual Carence to become the Associates as a result, even though the exchange price to be promised is reduced from the exchange price of the selling order, There is no charge for the transfer fee in the case of sale to a third party, so it is said to be the same as the exchange price obtained by selling virtual currency to the second party.

By doing this, it becomes easy to increase buying orders at the exchange, and it becomes easier to raise and stabilize the unit price of virtual currency, leading to an increase in the supply of virtual currency for the entire virtual market including the media market. It has the effect of increasing the speed and amount of information flow, thereby increasing the speed and amount of information flow throughout the virtual market.
The above-mentioned transaction function of the virtual currency exchange is the same as the transaction function of the transaction locally. In other words, the local trade and the exchange trade are mutually related, and together they constitute a virtual currency trading transaction.

The "evaluation and correction algorithm reflecting the difference in purchasing power for each subject group" will be described.
By adding the process of correcting the evaluations from the other users for the Associates and the free content for each group of subjects, the evaluation is made to reflect the difference in the first consumption price for each group of subjects, that is, the purchasing power. Then, based on the corrected evaluation, grant virtual ralche to Associates who are the assessors, and provide virtual ralca to virtual market appropriately.
Although the basic idea of this process is that the value transferred from one user to another is the evaluation of the other users, this act of "evaluation", that is, "value" Is considered to be large and small depending on the purchasing power of the users to which the users belong, and also to fluctuate due to fluctuations in the purchasing power of the agents accompanying the change of the times.

The "evaluation and correction algorithm reflecting the difference in purchasing power for each subject group" will be described.
(1) A value (evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor) is calculated such that the evaluation total amount of each subject group (subject evaluation total amount) is equal to the first consumption of each subject group (first consumption of the subject group).
Evaluation purchasing power multiple factor = subject group first consumption / subject group evaluation total amount (2) The evaluation value (purchasing power reflecting evaluation value) for associates and gratis contents belonging to each subject group reflecting the purchasing power difference is calculated.
Purchasing power reflection evaluation value = original evaluation value × evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor (3) The virtual reality supply system executes the subsequent processing using the purchasing power reflection evaluation value.

By doing this, it becomes possible to calculate an evaluation value that reflects the difference in purchasing power of each entity group with respect to associates and free content for each group of entities such as countries with different purchasing power, and so on. The currency supply system can, based on the calculated evaluation value (purchasing power reflection evaluation value), provide virtual currency to the Associates who are the assessors, and can supply virtual currency to the virtual market. It is a thing.
Also, by doing this, efficient information distribution that is not affected by economic disparities between countries (between regions) will be conducted in the virtual market, and evaluation values will be updated as needed (purchasing power reflection evaluation values In this way, it is possible to absorb in real time the changes in economic disparities accompanying the change of the times, and it is also expected that the time lag of changes will not occur.

In addition, the evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor calculated here is an existence like purchasing power parity, and serves as an index representing the difference in purchasing power between groups of entities, that is, for example, the difference in purchasing power between countries.
In addition, evaluation as setting information performed by the operator only sets the evaluation balance of Associates and free content for differences between large and small by the operation of this algorithm, and it is used as a relative evaluation in the virtual market. It becomes possible to operate, and for example, even if the evaluation to be set is absolutely too large or too small, it will be corrected to the evaluation of the amount commensurate with the consumption of the virtual market as a result. It is possible to give an assessor a value as an evaluation (purchasing power reflection evaluation value) in which purchasing power based on market consumption is reflected on gratis provided information (free content) provided for no charge.

As a result, the virtual market such as media market will be properly supplied to each group by reflecting the actual situation of virtual reality, but using the evaluation purchasing power ratio calculated here, Next, we will explain measures to correct the price difference resulting from the purchasing power difference between groups, that is, the failure due to the economic disparities between countries in the real economy.

“The paid content provided by Associates (for example, from the second consumption activity in a small group of evaluation purchasing power multiples (for example, India) is compared with the paid content provided by Associates in a large group of evaluation purchasing powers (for example, Japan) Also, there is a problem that the price competencies are high, and the willingness to provide paid contents of the associates in the group of entities having a large evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor may decline. In other words, for example, “If you try to provide a second user with a considerable exchange value for which Japanese associates are worthy to offer valuable paid content you think, you will be charged by the Associates of India as equivalent or inexpensive version. Once the content is provided to the second user by presenting an exceptional exchange value, Japanese Associates must excessively increase the added value of paid content to be provided compared to Associates in India. It is a problem of being exhausted.
This is a phenomenon often seen in the real economy, and products produced in regions with low prices are more competitive in price than products produced in regions with high prices, for example, It is recognized in a sense that it is a natural structure, just as there are companies in developed countries that purposely transfer production bases to other countries and reimport them using economic disparities.
However, even if this is a phenomenon often seen in the real economy and it is a natural phenomenon, for example, production bases in developing countries want to maintain lasting price competitiveness, so wages rise and thus economic development Even if the developing bases in the developing countries produce goods, export them to the developed countries, and the developing countries earn income with high price competitiveness, the result is There is a situation where it can not be said that the surplus value remains as a pure push up of the developing country's economy in the developing countries.
Therefore, in the conventional real economy, a system called "tariff" is used to protect industry within its own market for each group of each nation. However, there is also protectionism as an issue if this goes too far. In other words, it can be said that there is a limit to the correction of regional economic disparities using the system of the concept of “tariff”.

Therefore, the second consumption price has been increased as a function to make a mechanism to solve only the problem inherent in the virtual market such as the media market while maintaining the aspect (benefitability) of the duty as a protective policy. The virtual reality that the buyer pays) thinks that it is good for the associate who provided the paid content to take "a measure to acquire."
(1) Associates of the subject group A send paid content with an arbitrary amount of virtual currency (second consumption price) (2) Evaluation of the sent content sent The subject group B whose purchasing power ratio is higher than that of the subject group A If the second user of is trying to purchase, the second consumption price for the second user of the subject group B according to the ratio of the evaluation purchasing power multiple of the subject group A and the evaluation purchasing power multiple of the subject group B Is displayed.
Second consumption price displayed = Second consumption price of paid content arbitrarily set by Associates of subject group A × Evaluation of subject group B (subject group with high evaluation purchasing power factor) Purchasing power ratio / Subject group A (evaluation purchasing power ratio factor (3) Evaluation of purchasing power factor of (higher target group) (2) Second consumption price paid by the second user of the target group B who purchased the paid content transmitted by the associate of the target group A at the displayed second consumption price Of the group A's Associates acquire

By doing this, the optional second consumption price of the paid content that the Associates of India (the above-mentioned subject group A) intends to sell is the second user of India (the same subject group) and the evaluation purchasing power ratio of India. For the second user of the lower subject group C (for example, Kenya), any second consumer price set can be sold as it is, while the second use of Japan (subject group B) having a high evaluation purchasing power multiple As for the elderly, it becomes possible to sell them at the second consumption price that reflects the high purchasing power, and the income of Associates in India (Subject Group A) increases, and the Associates in Japan (Group B) An effect is exerted that the second consumption price of the paid content to be provided can not be depressed.
This also has the effect of being able to completely reduce the surplus value arising from economic disparities to the Indian associates who created value. In other words, it can be expected to make it easier to raise the economic power of India (subjects with a relatively low evaluation purchasing power multiple).
The scope of the group of entities to which the evaluation purchasing power multiple factor is applied is not limited to the state, but may be any area where economic conditions such as prices are considered to be comparable.

Next, the correction of the first consumption price between the groups of agents having different evaluation purchasing power multiplying factors will be described.
For example, as the first consumption price displayed to the second user of India (subject group A), the first consumption price in the same subject group and the subject group having a high evaluation purchasing power multiple (for example, Japan) is displayed as it is. On the other hand, the first consumption price in a group of relatively low evaluated purchasing power multiples (for example, India) displayed to the second user of Japan (subject group B) having a relatively high evaluated purchasing power multiple is displayed as it is. In addition, we believe that the following process may be added and displayed.

The flow of processing will be described.
(1) The first consumption price in the subject group A, which is displayed to the second user of the subject group B, has an evaluation purchasing power multiplying factor lower than that of the subject group B, the evaluation purchasing power factor of the subject group B and the evaluation of the subject group A The first consumption price (evaluation purchase power multiple reflection first consumption price) according to the ratio of the purchase power multiple is displayed.
Subject group with low evaluation purchasing power factor that is displayed to a second user belonging to subject group B with relatively high evaluation purchasing power factor, trying to acquire first consumption price information in subject group A with low evaluation purchasing power factor First consumption price (setting purchase power multiple reflection first consumption price) as setting information set in advance by the operator in A = first consumption price in group of principals A × group of principals B (group of high concentration of evaluation purchase power multiples) Evaluation of the purchasing power multiple / evaluation of the group of subjects A (group of subjects with high evaluation purchasing power multiple) purchasing power multiple (2) In the group of subjects A, displayed to the second user belonging to the group of subjects B trying to perform the first consumption activity According to (1) above, the price is the first consumption price reflected by the evaluation purchasing power factor, but the second user of the subject group B performs the first consumption activity, and the evaluation purchasing power factor reflection first consumption price is paid Ver Yarukarenshi may be disappeared from the virtual market by cancellation according to the first consumption activities, or the amount of minute of virtual currency was increased from the original first consumption price may be as benefit funds due to basic income algorithm. In this case, the target to be provided may be limited to the second user of the subject group A, and the purchasing power of the subject group A having a relatively low evaluation purchasing power multiple may be raised.

By doing this, the media market is included between the second user whose economic power is weak belonging to the group of entities with low evaluation purchasing power multiple and the second user of high economic power belonging to the subject group with high evaluation purchasing power multiple. While strengthening market competition principle in the first consumption activity of the virtual market and exerting the effect of activating the consumption activity in the virtual market, it also corrects the factor that hinders the people's economic activity due to the economic disparities between countries Exert an effect.

Description of “Settlement using a cryptocurrency on an exchange” will be described.
There is a question as to how to pay for the purchase of virtual currency, but as a conventional method, as in the Yahoo! As in the case of credit settlement, bank transfer settlement, or convenience store settlement, or a securities transaction account settlement system for securities transactions, the user is required to have a settlement account opened in advance, and the account balance data and the exchange. There is a method using legal currency, etc., by linking and settling transaction data in Japan.

However, in these methods, it is assumed that exchange is performed across the virtual market including the media market on the premise of being transacted across countries, for example, it takes too long to complete the settlement, or There is a problem that the cost for completing the settlement is too large, or too many processing steps are performed until the settlement is completed, and the load for the settlement is too large to be efficient.

Therefore, in this virtual market, cryptocurrency (virtual virtual reality) is connected using virtual contract on a block chain using storage area and communication network of information processing terminal equipment such as user's computer. It is possible to add the function of supplying currency, cryptocurrency, or existence called cryptographic asset etc., also for the purpose of reducing payment load. The first and second users who use the exchange have their own accounts created in advance on the block chain that the operator also constructs as one account. Then, on this block chain, the operator supplies cryptocurrency using the method of ICO. This cryptocurrency is used as a means of payment for purchasing a virtual currency on the exchange.

The flow is as follows.
(1) The user acquires an account on the virtual market and on the block chain (2) The user participates in or trades in the ICO and acquires cryptocurrency (acquisition is optional)
(3) Associates acquire virtual currency by activity in virtual market (4) Associates and second user exchange virtual currency and cryptocurrency in exchange (5) second user is virtual The activity in the market consumes the virtual currency (6) Associates exchange the cryptocurrency to be acquired for cash etc. which can be used in the real market or store the cryptocurrency as it is (7) The second user needs the necessary cryptocurrency (8) Associates acquire desired virtual reality by the process of (3) From (9), the above process cycles

This solves the problem that the load on settlement at the exchange is too large and is not efficient, and the cryptosystem issued by the operator by limiting the settlement means at the exchange to the cryptocurrency. Produces and stabilizes the economic value of currency, and has the effect of reducing volatility.
In addition, the fact that the above cryptocurrency is the compensation for the virtual currency in the exchange means that there is a sales transaction of virtual currency among the associates as well as the sales transaction of virtual currency from the associate to the second user. And, the above cryptocurrency is an asset necessary for Associates and second users to use the media market, that is, to acquire virtual reality, and the economic value of the above cryptocurrency is further enhanced. The effect of rising and stabilizing will be expected.

For cryptocurrency,
(1) Associates commission settlement (charging and refunding) means (2) Settlement (exchange) means of virtual currency in the exchange (3) Reserves of surplus value by production activities as Associates (4) Assets expected to rise There are four means of management, and the market capitalization (including the expected value in the future) is linked to the market capitalization ("total volume of distribution" × "unit price") of virtual currency in the virtual market group that the operator constructs The basis of the total issue volume x unit price) is determined. Because of this, unlike the Virtual Carrecurrence, which is always issued continuously, the unit price of Cryptocurrency, which is not always continued to be issued new, is likely to rise, and the virtual exchange rate of the Virtual Carrance is increased. Cryptocurrency's unit price is likely to rise due to the increase in cryptocurrency's market capitalization associated with the rise in gross value. In other words, it is necessary to take measures to reduce the cryptocurrency volatility.

In advance, in connection with the cryptocurrency issued by the ICO, the following processing is added in the processing of the exchange.
(1) The server establishes an exchange rate of 1 virtual currency = 1 cryptocurry at the exchange and issues an infinite virtual currency sales order.
This will allow cryptocurrency to indirectly generate quantified intrinsic value based on consumer market activity and valuation of the virtual market. In other words, cryptocurrency can be exchanged at any time to equal the virtual currency, and depending on the balance of the cryptocurrency, the value of the virtual reality will be smaller than 1 although it may be greater than 1 It will disappear if it becomes. Thus, cryptocurrency will have more value than virtual currency.

At this time, it is necessary to absorb the fluctuation (increase) of demand (value) of cryptocurrency and take measures to make the value of cryptocurrency equal to (close to) the value of virtual currency, but Note.
(1) Divide the cryptocurrency according to the gap of value so that the cryptocurrency value approaches the value of the virtual currency The cryptocurrency is the intrinsic value of the virtual currency value existing in the virtual market Although there is a problem with cryptocurrency, as with conventional cryptocurrency, if the total issue volume is fixed, there is a problem that the unit price changes significantly due to the fluctuation of the market capitalization of virtual currency.
Therefore, in order to solve this problem, cryptocurrency has an algorithm in advance to ensure that the value of cryptocurrency does not deviate from the value of the intrinsic value of virtual currency (that is, does not deviate from one to one). Let's keep it up.

Add the following functions to crypto currency.
(1) Monitor the balance of supply and demand of cryptocurrency using a smart contract on the block chain (2) If the balance of supply and demand shows a predetermined state (for example, excess demand exceeding 5% of the total amount of distribution, etc.) An excessively large amount of cryptocurrency is newly generated on the block chain, and the newly generated cryptocurrency according to the proportion of the amount of the existing cryptocurrency is granted to the existing cryptocurrency holder. (3) The supply and demand balance is in a predetermined state (For example, if it indicates oversupply of over 5% of the total distribution amount, etc.), the existing cryptocurrency holder will be proportionate to the existing cryptocurrency holder in order to eliminate the oversupply of cryptocurrency from the block chain. In the server (virtual market) by eliminating this cryptocurrency It becomes possible to function as a "currency" as a whole, virtual currency that is valid and cryptocurrency that is valid on the block chain (in the real world).

After all, the above cryptocurrency is a non-centralized bitcoin-like cryptocurrency, but the characteristic difference is that the total issue volume is infinite and the amount of cryptocurrency increases according to the balance of supply and demand It is in the part that contains the algorithm to reduce or reduce. In addition, the virtual value is generated by the virtual reality, fundamental analysis is also possible, and the economic role in the virtual market is also added, thereby realizing low volatility which is not found in the conventional cryptocurrency, It can be a cryptocurrency that can withstand not only payment methods in the virtual market but also other payment methods in the real world.

Furthermore, since cryptocurrency can also be exchanged for other values, such transactions as described herein with other virtual reality in other services such as the virtual market described herein. One-to-one exchange is also possible. That is, the virtual currency that connects the value with the cryptocurrency of the aspect described in this specification is infinite, and from this, the distribution total amount of cryptocurrency is the value of the value including the future expectation value of the virtual currency that connects the value. The total amount can, in theory, be expanded infinitely, and can continue to increase market capitalization.

Explain "paying tax using cryptocurrency in transfer".
If the exchange payment means is limited to cryptocurrency, then cryptocurrency will be charged to the transfer fee payment means charged when the Associates (side) transfers the virtuality to the second user (side) It is effective to use.
This is limited to the cryptocurrency of the Associates' responsibilities managed by the system cash passbook of the server, as described in “Transfer of virtual key from first user to second user, and charging and refunding”. Operation. In other words, the transfer fee (debt) for transfer of virtual currency in Associates, and the sales incentive fee (reduction of debt) for incentive payment are not limited to the legal currency such as yen, dollar or euro, but limited to cryptocurrency mentioned above. It is said that. This means that, in the local transaction, the transfer fee paid by the Associates to the operator will be the cryptocurrency even if the exchange consideration of the virtual currency bought by the Associates is the local legal currency.

By doing this, it is an issue of the virtual market group such as the media market of the present embodiment on the premise that it is developed as a single platform all over the world. Eliminate any inefficiencies in payment processing due to having to deal with it (direct transactions between users in the local are optional and free, that is, Associates are free to take charge of transfer of virtuality in local transactions) In the virtual market group including media market, it will be possible to provide efficient payment processing without the need for bank account settlement.

In addition, although the embodiment using cryptocurrency is considered as the best mode, why “payment using cryptocurrency in the exchange” and “tax payment using cryptocurrency in transfer” are as variations. For example, in the case of a market such as China, in some cases, considering the possibility of regionally building a virtual market group including a media market limited to China, which does not use cryptocurrency, in some cases. is there. In other words, in the virtual market in this embodiment, in addition to the main world single platform virtual market group deployed worldwide, the use of the main virtual market group deployed worldwide is restricted. We believe that there may be a limited set of virtual markets.

Thus, the cryptocurrency mentioned above, together with "payment means at the exchange" and "tax payment means at the virtual market", has a solid economic value of "can be exchanged for virtual currency anytime" (virtual key currency). The “preserving function of value”, “value measuring function”, and “value exchanging function” inherently possessed by the above cryptocurrency function synergistically to establish the function as “currency”. It will be.

Then, it is a "cryptcurrency division algorithm" that lowers the volatility necessary to improve the function of cryptocurrency as a currency, and raises the total amount of cryptocurrency in accordance with the increase in the total amount of virtual currency circulation. This means that the value of cryptocurrency is not increased and the unit price is not increased, but the total issue of cryptocurrency is made unlimited, and if the value goes up, the amount of increase in value is held for the cryptocurrency holder. If the cryptocurrency is generated and given according to the amount and the value decreases, the cryptocurrency holder will cancel the cryptocurrency according to the holding amount by the amount of decrease in value, so the so-called interest rate in cryptocurrency It is like that.

By doing this, when the “virtual currency control algorithm” and the “crypt currency control algorithm” in the present embodiment integrally form an algorithm, the evaluation from the other party (information provider It is possible to provide "money based on the approval request of the information transferee" and the value transferred to others based on the knowledge desire of the information acquirer, that is, "evaluation-oriented money".
In other words, it is a virtual currency whose intrinsic value is the evaluation of others, and a cryptocurrency whose intrinsic value is virtual currency, which is the present embodiment that causes these to function.

Explain "set creditworthiness as an associate in the form of credit limit grant".
Associates transfers virtual currency to a second user, and the transfer fee charged by the virtual market operator is a system that accounts for this as an associate's debt, and for the operator, a claim on the associate (trade receivables) However, the upper limit of the price is managed using different values for each associate. In other words, the credit limit. It is a shopping frame for credit cards, so to speak.

Although this is sufficient with prior art such as in credit card credit transactions and there is no particular characteristic technology, detailed processing will be omitted, but simply saying, "Assess the user's service usage behavior. To increase or decrease the credit line for each user. In other words, the operator of the virtual market group who is the creditor is
(1) Virtual market usage act (2) Evaluation obtained from other users of virtual market (3) Credit limit amount (credit limit) for Associates using acquired information by provision of financial statement information by accreditation system It is something to increase or decrease.

Note that the size of the credit line granted to the Associates may be linked to the display priority of the Associates (first user) in the prior patent specification "Privilege Management Device", or the Virtual Callacity will be granted. Whether it is linked with the amount, linked with the accumulated payment (tax payment) amount to the operator, or linked with the sales encouragement (refund) amount from the operator, it is considered to be anything. That is, it is a function of a credit card or the like which conventionally exists.

Explain the "market use behavior to which virtual currency disappears (first consumption activity by the second user)".
For (the second aspect of) the user, when using the functions of the media market, there is a use act that consumes (cancels) virtual reality, and there is a use act that does not consume (does not disappear). The operator registers (updates) the setting information in advance to determine what usage act of the second user is to be a free act, and what usage act is a paid act that involves consumption of virtual reality. In addition, for each paid activity, how much use activity and how much virtual currency will be consumed as compensation is set. In other words, it is the setting of prices in the virtual market.

The service usage act, which is paid, is a function to use the media market in which the user participates more advantageously than other users using it free of charge. For example, so-called advertisement-like use acts such as enabling information to be delivered faster, more, and more appropriately to an object for whom information is desired to be acquired, and information acquired by oneself There is a so-called information collection and use act such as enabling to obtain more quickly, more and more appropriately from the subject that the user wants to provide. And, it is the consumption of virtual currency that determines the size and priority of the amount and accuracy.

The use of these virtual carrances to disappear from the virtual market is referred to as "first consumption activities by second users". And, I think that the first consumption activity in the media market is dominated by the advertising activities of the second user who is a business member. The flow will be described below.

Valuable information is provided to the media market by Associates such as reporters who register in the media market, and business members and individual members who intend to acquire this gather. Then, among the gathered business members, a business member who wants to advertise to other users is created, and the virtual consumption is purchased from the Associates, and the first consumption activity in which the virtual reality is consumed (disappears) is performed. And, valuable information is provided by Associates such as reporters, etc., in order to gain the virtual reality that is newly supplied to the media market beyond the volume that will disappear from the media market. Then, a business member who purchases virtual currency from the Associates who has acquired virtual currency, further performs primary consumption activities such as advertising and the like in a way that is advantageous to themselves. And furthermore, business members and individual members who expect the provision of valuable information of associates increase, and these cycle.

In other words,
(1) Associates provide valuable information (2) Users increase in search for valuable information (3) Business operators who want to advertise to the increased users appear (4) In this embodiment Associates who can acquire the advertising expenses of the enterprise further provide valuable information (5) More users are sought for more valuable information (6) In the present embodiment, the supply amount of virtual currency increases (7 ) A business that wants to advertise to an increasing number of users purchases and promotes virtual currency, and virtual currency disappears (8) Virtual currency is newly supplied to associates who provide valuable information (9) Value The number of users increases further for certain information,
It is a flow of.
That is, according to the present embodiment, the media market directly receives the advertising expenses paid by the second user who is the business operator directly to the associate (the first user) who is the information provider who creates and provides the copyrighted work without charge. It will be able to effectively circulate, and it will provide the real world with a mechanism that will continue to increase its scale as the number of second viewers of the media market increases and usage time increases.

It should be noted that Associates who acquire Virtual Callancy free of charge do not have to continue to create new works every time, but the continuous value that is continuously evaluated by other users is another person. By providing the material provided to the media market to the media market, it is possible to provide virtual media with more valuable information because it is possible to continuously acquire virtual reality.

A description will be given of “market use behavior (second consumption activity by a second user) that the virtual currency does not disappear” content buying and selling ”.
For (second aspect of) the second user, when using the functions of the media market, some use acts to consume (extinguish) virtual currency and some use not to consume (does not disappear). In addition to these usages, there is also a virtual currency exchange transaction among users.
Associates such as reporters do not have to provide all the works they create in the media market without charge to other users, but whether they are free or paid, or paid If so, it is possible to decide arbitrarily how much to sell. And there are various works that can be provided by the Associates such as reporters in the media market, as described in "Component 1" described above.

For example, an associate such as a reporter can set an arbitrary amount of virtual currency and sell content such as a work to be created to other second users. As the second user, the content sold by the Associates can be paid by the Virtual currency to the Associates at his own discretion, and the content can be acquired.
In this way, the information provided by the associates handled in the media market greatly exceeds the scope of the information content provided free of charge by so-called TV and other media, for example, books generally sold in the real world, It will be able to handle even copyrighted works such as music and movies. The flow will be described below.

The reporter Associates distributes (displays) only the surface to the media market, setting prices for articles that are considered to be of relatively high value that they should not provide free information. The second user who sees the surface of the article of the said reporter who has been displayed determines the value of the paid content from the free content etc. of the article etc. being delivered free of the said reporter, and pays the virtual reality for the content. Purchase from the relevant reporter. At this time, no charge from the operator for the reporter and the second user is assumed. Then, the reporter sells paid content, transfers the acquired virtual currency to the second user's side and consumes it by itself, or transfers it to other users at a local transaction or exchange. And get paid. On the other hand, the second user who has purchased the paid content transfers from the Associates (or an aspect of Associates) the local transaction or the virtual exchange that he / she needs later, and pays for it.

In other words, in the entire virtual market, including the media market, virtual reality from the first consumption activity to the second user's use of services accompanied by the disappearance of virtual reality is "virtual activity by the second consumption activity". It will transfer between users while transferring the ownership right in the market. It is a currency.

By doing this, it becomes possible for Associates to sell various works etc. to other users through the media market. It is a music or book that you create, an article or documentary that you put together with a great deal of knowledge and effort, a wide variety of all kinds of content, regardless of the name unknown, effort and cost, value through the media market It will be able to provide to users in the world who accept it.

And, this is also lost conventionally because it is possible to deliver the creation supply such as the work directly and effectively from the embodiment to the consumer. Also, the so-called unknown value, which was cut off by media agencies as media, is likely to be born with value in society, improve the creative mind of creators, and thus dramatically promote the distribution of values such as works. Become effective.

Explain the relationship between the disappearance of virtual reality and the new supply and the trading price at the exchange.
Virtual media supply to the virtual market group, including the media market, is based on the evaluation of other users and operators for the provision of information (providing free content) by Associates such as reporters in the media market. Starting with the creation of virtual reality on the virtual market and the grant of the virtual reality to the Associates.

And, while transferring the ownership right among the users, the virtual currency disappears from the virtual market by the first consumption activity through the second consumption activity.
In addition, because the virtual activity takes a variety of distribution routes from the time it is created in the virtual market until it disappears by the second consumption activity, the virtual reality period has a uniform period of existence. Does not exist. And, the virtual exchange value of virtual currency can be considered as arbitrary among users.
From these things, it seems that the operator can not control the virtual karmic flow disturbance (it is the information circulation trouble itself) due to the fluctuation of the unit exchange value of the virtual currency in the virtual market as a whole. Absent.

To explain, in this embodiment, the concept of “currency does not disappear” is replaced with the premise that “currency does not disappear” as in the conventional central bank-based currency supply system, “virtuality disappears (value fluctuates depending on holding period) Add the concept of And, speaking of where this concept comes from, it is because of the existence of virtualism, that is, where it originates from where it comes from, it is that the constant desire of humanity is the essence of virtual reality. It comes from putting in value. In other words, since virtual reality is created based on active others' evaluation needs such as approval needs and active curiosity such as intellectual curiosity and group knowledge sharing, virtual reality continues to be produced in the market ( It is the concept of the creation and the extinction of virtual reality, by being regarded as a matter of nature.

On the other hand, there are cases where the virtual markets such as the media market do not receive any provision of goods or services from the Associates in performing the creation and grant of the virtual reality to the Associates. In other words, in the stage of creation and granting, Virtualcalness does not offer the Associates a liability for the Associates for any compensation, and the Virtualcurrency granted is not for the Associates. It is not something that should be recorded as an asset, and it may exist as a useless feature that has no value for its own use. To the last, providing free content to the media market and quantifying the value that other users would have gained by browsing the provided free content, etc. It is only that what is virtual reality.

From these facts, virtual currency is not given the asset function of "value preservation" which is one of the roles of the currency. This is all the more true because it has the property that it has an upper limit on the holding period of the virtual currency and it disappears (the value fluctuates depending on the period) when the time limit comes. In other words, virtual reality is designed to continue being created in the virtual market by the desire of the human user, and to design it as an existence that should eventually disappear. Therefore, "the virtual reality disappears".
Note that these processes are processed based on setting information.

On the premise of the above explanation, "The operator can control the virtual karmic flow disturbance (which is the information circulation trouble itself) caused by the fluctuation of the unit exchange value of the virtual currency of the whole virtual market". ,
(1) The fact that the virtual reality continues to disappear from the market (2) The server can adjust the supply of the virtual reality to the market in any way (3) “evaluation correction reflecting the difference in purchasing power among the groups of subjects Unify the unit value of virtual currency through the whole virtual market by the algorithm (4) that the server keeps track of the unit exchange value of virtual currency through the exchange,
To execute.
That is, according to (3) and (4), virtual currency can be determined as the unit value in the entire virtual market, and servers that understand this price transition will always disappear from the virtual market according to (1) (2) must be continuously supplied, and servers should process this so that the virtual exchangeability of virtual exchange will not occur due to the fluctuation of the unit exchange value of virtual exchange throughout the virtual market. Although it is necessary to do this, this is solved only by adding the following processing to the server.

The basic process of the "new supply total amount adjustment algorithm" will be described.
(1) Sales orders of virtual currency in the exchange give priority to orders with low sales prices (2) Always, the server is infinite in a one-to-one relationship with the consideration for exchanging virtual sales orders. (In addition, the setting of the first consumption price performed by the operator in the setting information is set with a sense of the value of the value to be exchanged.)
(3) The selling order by the server of (2) is subordinate to the selling order of the first user (the side of the Associates) if the same amount as the selling order of the (first aspect) (4) According to 2) and (3), it becomes possible to sell virtual carrance infinitely, but this is stored as "the amount of pre-sale virtual currency for borrowing" (5) the server always stores Make a purchase order of virtual carlucency of the same amount as the amount of “pre-sale virtual carreality of borrowing” in a one-to-one relationship with the value to be exchanged (6) “pre-sale virtual carreality of borrowing” is set as setting information Below the identified threshold (Z, described below), the value of the valuated property is reduced by (7) The server stops (7) the server supplies a new virtual supply so that the “pre-sale virtual sales amount for lease” approaches A% (setting information, eg 10%) of the total amount of virtuality present in the virtual market Adjust the supply of currency

Next to the basic process, an action process of the "new supply total amount adjustment algorithm" will be described.
(8) When the demand for virtual carrance is increasing, the adjustment of the amount of virtual carcal supply will be from A% (10%) to B% (setting information, eg 50%, ie 15% of the total amount of virtual carrance) (A + A X B%) Borrower Pre-sale Vending status of the amount of virtual carrance) If upside (symptom of lack of supply), a predetermined C period (setting information, for example, one month or one week or two months) Any period The total amount of the new supply amount of) is increased by “(A × B)%, that is, 5% in this case” of the total amount of virtual reality. If it is short, the influence of adjustment is large, and if it is long, the influence of adjustment is small. The operator updates these setting information according to the condition of the virtual market (9) The total supply adjustment of new supply of (8) is retroactively calculated to enhance the immediate effect, and has already been supplied to the associates in the past In addition to the amount of virtual capital, the retroactive adjustment may be immediately supplied to the Associates, and the total adjustment of new supply may be continued thereafter (10) When the demand for virtual currency decreases The adjustment of the amount of supply of virtual carrancy, from the amount of A% (10%) to D% (setting information, for example 50%, ie 5% of the total amount of virtuality) (A-A × D%) virtual sales pre-sale virtual When the amount of currency is downturn (symptom of oversupply), the predetermined E period (setting information, for example, 1 month or 1 week) The total supply of the new supply of the virtual supply is decreased by “(A × D)%, that is, 5% in this case” of the total supply of the virtual supply for the total supply of the new supply for any period) It should be noted that the setting of the predetermined period is short if the influence of the adjustment is large, and if it is long, the influence of the adjustment is small. The operator updates these setting information in accordance with the state of the virtual market.
Further, at the timing of performing supply adjustment at the time of demand decrease described here, the threshold value Z of the above (6) is set, and the decrease in value (counting of the expiration date) due to the holding period of virtual currency held by Associates is stopped. Then, when the demand for virtual reality increases and the amount of pre-sale virtual currency for rent reaches the value of A, the counting of the virtual lifetime for the virtual key ownership held by the Associates who has stopped is resumed.

Next to the above-mentioned procedural process, the urgent process of the "new supply total amount adjustment algorithm" will be described.
(11) If there is a sharp decline in demand and the amount of pre-sale virtual currency for borrowing becomes zero, the consumption tax on which the basic income algorithm, which will be explained later, is funded, will be explained later only while it is zero. In this way, the rate of taxing is doubled (which can be changed by updating the setting information), substantially increasing the virtual currency consumption of the entire virtual market including the media market, and at the same time the virtual market. Increase free grants for currency and support personal consumption.
In the situation where this urgent processing is well known to the user, the timing of execution of this urgent processing when the circulation status of virtual currency including the amount of pre-sale virtual currency for rental in virtual market is disclosed to the user Since the user can now predict, it is possible to expect a second user's last-minute consumption immediately before implementation (immediately before tax increase), which will increase demand and consequently this emergency. It has the effect of delaying the treatment or eliminating the need for this urgent treatment.

By doing this, the unit price of virtual currency will be kept completely constant (exchange price and one-to-one value) in "normal time" in which there is one or more "pre-sale virtual rental volume". Even if the demand declines rapidly at exceptional times such as when the economic recession or monetary policy failure etc. (“pre-sale virtual rental amount” is 0, that is, an emergency), the unit price of virtual currency will not easily fall.
When the demand declines above the threshold, the expiration date of the virtual key property held by Associates has stopped counting, and even if the amount of pre-sale virtual key property is 0, it is not necessary to bother and sell cheaply. With the decrease of the total amount of currency circulation, the virtual currency recovers to its original value (the residual sales virtual currency amount becomes 1 or more at the time of borrowing), so the selling order is one-for-one with the exchange price. It should be kept at the price, and it should be sold cheaply by 1 to 0.9 mag, etc., only when you want exchange consideration immediately (with no real money).

Also, this makes it possible to settle the purchase of the virtual customer of the consumer without any stress under any circumstances, and the sale of the virtual reality by the Associates can be settled without any stress in peacetime. Since it is possible to wait only for a short while for an emergency situation, it is effective to reduce the transaction stress of the user as in the conventional exchange.
In addition, when calculating the adjustment value of the new supply amount of virtual carrance, it is possible to easily calculate the amount of virtual carrance in the virtual market that is insufficient or left over simply by monitoring the “pre-sale virtual callalty amount for borrowing”. Therefore, the operator and the user also have the effect of easily recognizing the basis of the adjustment.

This means that the total virtual capital demand (total financial demand) of the second user (or aspect, that is, all consumers) and the income of the Associates (or aspect) are balanced throughout the virtual market group. This also means that there is a battle of acquisition of virtual cards among the Associates (the motivation is to try to deliver better quality information to be evaluated more than other Associates, and the chain It means that a reaction occurs), which also means that the number of second users (especially individuals) seeking better information is increased, and the usage time is increased. Will increase the total amount of virtual customer demand for the second user (in particular, the advertising activities conducted by business members will be activated). This means that it also means increasing the total amount of virtual currency acquired by the Associates, and as such, the Virtual Markets Group has become an Associates entering the virtual market such as the media market. On the other hand, the competition principle with market expansion has been made to work strongly.
That is, in the present embodiment, the operator can cycle the virtual market group to be built to activate (market expansion) at a limit speed, and therefore, the effect of activating the real market is also exhibited. It is

After all, the best mode in this embodiment is "do not use cryptocurrency using local legal currency as settlement means, per country (Ecousing single legal currency is also regarded as one country) There are two types: local model and global model that uses multiple countries and crosses the world, and does not use legal currency that uses cryptocurrency as payment means.

The "basic income algorithm" will be described.
The second user, a business member who uses the media market, consumes virtual currency, based on setting information set in advance by the operator, like a sort of consumption tax that exists in the real world (hereinafter referred to as consumption tax In addition, the operator will be charged virtual capital, in addition to the amount of virtual capital used. For example, in the case where the consumption tax rate is 10%, when the normal amount of virtual currency consumption is 10000, the amount of virtual currency debited from the virtual currency passbook of the server is deducted by 11,000. (The display may be displayed as 11000 as an internal tax.) If the purpose of consumption is acquisition of paid content provided by Associates, 10000 out of 11000 withdrawn, provided content. Move to Associates, 1000 move to operator.

Then, based on the setting information set in advance, the virtual reality, which the operator collects from the second user who is the business member during the predetermined period, is distributed to the second user who is the individual member at predetermined intervals. In addition, regarding the distribution balance and the expiration date of the virtual reality to be distributed, the operator can do whatever by updating the setting information.

In this way, the economic activity of users in the virtual market group such as media market is secured, personal consumption is promoted, the usage frequency of individual members is increased, and as a result, the amount and volume of virtual currency in the whole virtual market. Exert an effect of increasing In addition, the fact that virtual currency can not be stored, can only be used within a virtual market, can not be transferred to others, must be consumed on its own, and the consumption period of the distributed virtual currency can be set short (for example, 1 Months, etc.) and time lags, but as a result the distribution equivalent amount is supplied to Associates, it is much more than consumption tax (value added tax) and basic income which are in the real world conventionally. Big effect can be expected.

That is, by adding this processing to the virtual reality supply system, the users of the virtual market to be constructed are guaranteed the right to participate in the economic activities carried out by the users, and there is an effect that the consumption activity is promoted.
In addition, although the explanation here explains the transfer processing of virtual currency from business members to individual members, the technology is not limited to the above explanation, and “the second user uses the name of the consumption tax The basic income algorithm is one of the evaluation algorithm based on the evaluation based on the evaluation of the virtual reality to be supplied to the virtual market, since it is a process of supplying the virtual reality collected at step 2 to the second user. It is said that it is a side. By this (the control of virtual carrance supply), the operator is further enhancing the power to control the virtual market.

The "setting information" will be described.
The control of virtual reality in which the virtual market including the media market in the present embodiment is distributed is controlled based on setting information previously determined by the operator. And, the setting information can be updated anytime by the operator, and the operator can control the distribution of virtual reality by updating the setting information so as to control the virtual market. There is.

The setting information includes setting of the consumption virtual quantity (first consumption price) in the first consumption activity by the second user. The operator decides, for example, whether the price of bread in a certain group is 1 or 10 or 100. Then, based on the determined bread price, the prices of other products are balanced and determined. Furthermore, with regard to groups of entities with different purchasing powers, the prices and balances of the above-mentioned groups of entities will be taken into consideration. This is the setting of the first consumption price. If the price of the previous bread is 1 dollar in USD conversion, and the first consumption price of bread is 1 and the other first consumption price is balanced, the unit price of virtual currency is the same as the unit price of USD If the virtual reality supply algorithm that distributes the entire virtual market works with a sense of quantitative value, and the primary consumption price of bread is 100 and other primary consumption prices are balanced, the unit price of virtual reality is Japanese yen The virtual reality supply algorithm that distributes the entire virtual market works with the same sense of quantitative value as the unit price.

In other words, the determination of the first consumption price is not the act of determining the absolute value, but the action of determining the relative value to the other first consumption prices, and the operator is the first consumption activity of the virtual market as a whole. As the balance of the value of the first consumption price is to be more activated, the operator updates the setting information so as to raise the first consumption price as a whole, and the total circulation amount of virtual reality increases. In other words, the so-called US dollar-based GDP does not rise, but there is a mechanism that reduces the unit price of virtual currency.

Furthermore, in the case of a virtual market in which cryptocurrency is used as a means of payment, since the algorithm of cryptocurrency's unit price approaches the unit price of virtual currency operates, the quantity of the value of the setting information of the first consumption price of bread With a sense of value, cryptocurrency will circulate in the real world. That is, the basis of the setting information is the setting of the first consumption price. In addition, with the sense of the unit price of the virtual currency determined here, the Associates will decide the offered price of the paid content by itself and promote the second consumption activity to the second user.

Further, the setting information includes a setting for calculating an evaluation value from another user with respect to the provision of the free content according to (the aspect of) the associate. The operator, for example, evaluates each activity in the content acquisition situation of the user other than the content provider for a certain free content, for example, whether the evaluation per one second viewing time is 1 or 10 or 100 decide. Then, based on the determined value of the browsing time of 1 second, other evaluations are determined in balance. This is the evaluation setting that determines how to balance the amount by which the Associates are given virtual reality for each Associate.

Note that the total amount (total supply amount) of the amount to be given to the Virtual Carrance Associates is controlled by the new total supply adjustment algorithm, and the operator can not modify the total supply amount. The setting is, like the setting of the price balance of the first consumption price, the setting of the evaluation balance for the Associates, that is, the setting of the grant balance of the virtual reality for the Associates. The operator updates the setting information so as to balance the evaluation value so that the quality and quantity of the free content provided by the associate is improved.

In addition, in setting information, setting of an evaluation that becomes a basis for calculating an evaluation value for the second user for discounting the first consumption price by the second user and / or determining the distribution ratio of the basic income. There is. The operator likes, for example, an action expected of the second user! In the case of promotion of intentional evaluation such as ☆ and 等 3, etc., for each intentional evaluation to calculate an evaluation value based on how many times of intentional evaluation in a predetermined period were, for example, it is good! One at a time, two at a time, or two evaluations at one time, or how far the intentional evaluation of five conversions from others to their comments is away from the central value,

ie

1, 2 When there are five levels of ☆, 3, 4 and 5 evaluation, the center value 3 is 0, 1 is −2, 2 is −1, 4 is +1, and 5 is +2, and all evaluations are summed up. The evaluation value may be calculated based on the total value.
