# Exploring Post-Capitalist Crypto Pathways

We stand at a crossroads of humanity's journey. The prevailing system of endless economic growth and extraction has pushed ecosystems and communities to the brink. We must challenge conventional notions of money, capital and crypto, recognizing their role in this trajectory of harm. With advances in AI and automation set to eliminate many jobs, we have an opportunity to envision life beyond labor for basic needs. It is crucial we rethink economics and create currencies capable of providing stability while fulfilling core human needs.

As members of the Web3 community, we strive to disrupt crypto capitalism with financial systems designed for long-term flourishing of people and planet. We aspire towards truly Regenerative Economies and Finance, grounded in ecological harmony, wellbeing, renewal and restoration. While many projects embrace these ideals, most fall short in embodying regenerative principles structurally in their crypto economic designs. Cryptocurrencies often try to solve problems that don't exist, used merely to fund “regenerative” projects. But simply issuing tokens doesn't provide value if the currency itself lacks purpose and connection to its community. To be truly regenerative, there should be a link between currency supply and real-world impact. Most crypto projects remain constrained by the old physics of money and capitalism.

The purpose of ReFi must be to transform crypto capitalism into crypto commons - building open, inclusive, cooperative networks for value creation, commons-based production, and transparent governance. This is a pivotal moment to demonstrate that alternatives are possible, if we have the creativity to design systems rooted in living principles.

# Project Goals

Our goal is to create a free, self-paced online course on Regenerative Finance (ReFi) that provides a comprehensive framework for understanding regenerative principles, the commons, and how currencies beyond crypto tokens can enable regenerative resource management, generate community resilience, and establish a stable, non-speculative foundation for economic evolution.

The aim is to shift the narrative from "ReFi" as just another buzzword for green finance, to a deeper understanding of what makes financial systems truly regenerative. This course will demonstrate tangible alternatives to extractive economics, empowering purpose-driven projects with the knowledge and tools needed to design financial flows aligned with living systems.

Rather than promoting speculative hype cycles, our ReFi course will foster economic reimagination grounded in ecological integrity, social equity, and transparent commons governance.
