<br>
I want to introduce you to Bank of the Commons.<br>
<br>
Bank of the Commons is an open cooperative initiative to transform<br>
banking, payments and currencies, in order to support the economy used<br>
in cooperative and social movements both at a global and a local level.<br>
We are building another economy for more fair and equal societies<br>
<br>
Bank of the Commons adopts Faircoin as a strategic global social<br>
currency and blockchain technology upon which to base the development<br>
and adoption of decentralized financial structures for the Commons.<br>
This will be combined with official currencies since beginning and<br>
progressively with other alternative and social currencies<br>
at local and global level.<br>
<br>
Legally, it is based on the networking process of existing cooperative<br>
structures in different parts of the world, and on the creation of an<br>
European Cooperative Society in Italy, which will take care of the<br>
social capital invested in Bank of the Commons, providing it with an<br>
independent legal status.<br>
<br>
Since 7th of June 2017 onwards, Bank of the Commons has open its doors,<br>
to begin to offer banking services to our first members.<br>
<br>
Already different iniciatives and individuals has joined, as cofounders<br>
and this still is possible until 15 of july (and of course any time is<br>
possible to be normal member)<br>
More than 20 cofounders already joined,<br>
<br>
Bank of the commons participants, will assist at the ECA assembly in<br>
Madrid and would like to join the working group on the commons and<br>
currencies/finances,<br>
<br>
