AYU — meaning Life — is where Creditism takes its first real shape. A planetary membership network where anyone, anywhere can co-create decentralized governance, shared stewardship, and a new form of credit. Built transparently, with on-chain activation as the network matures.
The name isn't metaphor — it's a statement of intent. AYU is the network that makes the vision of Creditism real, 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 — a pre-Credit recognition layer for what members build, verify, and vote on. First Flow and Weekly Flow are issued as AYU Points during this phase, helping test the logic of flow before full Credit activation.
AYU is designed as a layered system. Each layer reinforces the next — from individual identity to shared stewardship to a functioning new economy.
Every member is a real, unique human — verified through Aura and BrightID. This is the foundation everything else rests on. No verification, no gaming the system.
Powered by BrightID / AuraMembers earn AYU Points by participating: verifying identity, referring trusted members, voting, signing declarations, contributing to partner projects, and stewarding commons.
Highest rates in Phase 1As the network grows, members govern shared resources, vote on key decisions, and steward the infrastructure together. The network isn't run for members — it's run by them.

When you reserve your spot
Phase 1 closes in
We'll be in touch soon with next steps to verify your identity and activate your Genesis Membership. Welcome to the network.
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.
Your 3,000-point First Flow grant activates after your identity is verified. Weekly Flow begins automatically the same week.
Points are network recognition for what you contribute — what you build, verify, and govern. They do not convert into Credit, tokens, equity, ownership, or financial return. They help establish a verified participation record before full Creditism activates on-chain.
No. Most members aren't. Genesis Membership is for anyone — verify your identity and start participating. The Founding Circle pathways below are additional roles for those building this earliest.
Three reserved, non-dilutive allocations for the people building this earliest. These pathways are alongside Genesis Membership — pick the role that fits what you bring to the network.
