I might be missing something — when you say experiment do you mean a scientific experiment?

i'm an engineer not a scientist, so i use the term loosely. i don't know what will happen when people use this system! :)

It's genuinely a strange system and I am also curious! Are you trying to actively recruit people? Might be worth figuring out if people tend to be wiling to pay this much?

i'm getting people's opinions and critiques... but nearly everybody i've approached actually wants to try it! esther is going to, and prof berna wants to but hates paypal
it ends up costing $10 every 6-8 weeks; otherwise money just circulates.1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -

it's "energy" that grows the system, continually circulating. the thing is a cellular automaton, designed to grow quickly throughout a capitalist economy and redirect about 1% of the economy's throughput :)

But if people are putting in $10 every few weeks whose account is the money sitting in if not going to other users?

did u see the simulation page? it starts with $50 going into your account (let's say)... and you spend it! then each successive week you send $10 to someone else :) in software (e.g., networking) it's called a scatter/gather pattern.
