AYU

Life.

AYU is the network that makes the vision of Creditism work, person by person, community by community. Where identity is verified, decisions are shared, and the economy starts to belong to the people who live it.

AYU begins as an invite-only network powered by AYU Points. Points onboard members, map what the network creates, and record every contribution, verification, and vote. The system grows with the network. This is an economic evolution.

  • One human, one accountMembership is anchored to real, unique humans through Aura (BrightID). No bots, no duplicates, no bureaucracy.
  • Points now. Credit later.Participation earns AYU Points. Points are the foundation: the participation record the whole system is built on. AYU Credit grows from it as the network matures.
  • Members fund the futureMembers back the projects, services, and commons they want to see flourish. The community sets its own priorities.
  • Built in the openThe network is created and stewarded by everyone. Every transaction, vote, and decision becomes part of open, auditable infrastructure.
How to Earn

Every contribution becomes
part of the record.

AYU Points reward real participation, not passive holding. Recognition is highest in Phase 1 and steps down with each phase that follows. The earliest builders are recognized most.

What happens next

After you reserve
your spot.

How does verification work?

You'll set up Aura through BrightID — a privacy-respecting identity protocol that confirms you're a unique human. Most members complete verification in under 10 minutes.

When do I receive my First Points?

Your 3,000 First Points grant activates after your identity is verified. Weekly Points begin automatically the same week.

What can I do with AYU Points?

Points are network recognition for what you contribute — what you build, verify, and govern. They are not Credit, tokens, equity, ownership, or a financial return. They help establish a verified participation record before full Credit activation.

Do I need to be a builder, partner, or patron?

No. Most members aren't. Anyone can apply to join. Once you're invited, you verify your identity and start participating. The Founding Circle pathways below are optional roles for anyone who wants to help build it earliest.

Phase 1 · Three pathways

The Founding Circle
is forming now.

Recognition is recorded now in AYU Points. Each founding share is set from the start and stays fixed: later growth never reduces it. This isn't ownership, and it isn't a financial return. It's how the network remembers who built it first.

2%

Founding Team

For builders, staff, advisors, and the Foundation itself: the people doing the work of bringing Creditism to life. Volunteer, advise, or join the board.

Join the team →
2%

Partners

For mission-aligned organizations and creators who apply to become network partners. Each accepted partner holds an equal share, regardless of size, reach, or resources. Set from the start, fixed as the network grows.

Apply to partner →
1%

Patrons

For founding patrons who contribute $100–$10,000 to support the Foundation's work: the network, the research, the coding, and the media that make this real. The Patron Pool sets aside 1% of AYU Points to record that you were early. Recognition, not a return.

Become a patron →
Set from the start. Each founding share is reserved for its group and never reduced as the network grows. Early Members receive the highest First Points and activity recognition, and can join the Founding Circle separately as Partners or Patrons.
