Global Social Issues
The world is experiencing
a widening Wealth Gap
We were born and live in a capitalist society, but in recent years,
its ﬂaws have become apparent. Analyzing data from over 200
years, it has been discovered that the economic growth rate (g)
is lower than the rate of capital return (r), leading to widening
wealth inequality.
Even historically innovative Bitcoin, which created digital assets
through a decentralized system, has not achieved the ideal of
avoiding a centralized structure of wealth dominance. A new
mechanism is necessary to smoothly distribute and circulate
wealth.

① Introduction
＊Only 0.3% of individuals (155,820 wallet addresses) possess 10 BTC (approx.K$303)
or more, and they own 82.3% of the market capitalization of Bitcoin (approx.B$587.8).
(as of Apr.15, 2023)

The Beginning of PEACE COIN
Every “Good Person”
should be rewarded in society!!
In society, there exist not only economically measurable values
but also invisible yet essential values such as kindness and
integrity. By increasing and circulating Social Capital (trust
relationships), we aim to create a society where good people are
rewarded.
PEACE COIN was created to restore belief in oneself and
society, facilitating altruistic actions. Through visualizing and
circulating qualitative values such as someone giving you
"cookies" or "vegetables," being deeply appreciated, and
hearing "Thank you" that brings joy, it strengthens connections
with others and society.
We believe that the feeling of being a part of the cycle of
kindness towards others is the key to realize a society where
individuals can live with a sense of security and authenticity.

① Introduction

The World PEACE COIN Aims For
Monopolistic
Economy
The excessive pursuit of capitalism and globalization has led to
the concentration of wealth among those adept at seeking
short-term gains. Within this context, individuals who aspire to
be true to themselves find their activities limited in fields such
as environment, welfare, and education, where outcomes
require longer-term investment.
By shifting from a system of ongoing wealth concentration to a
system of circulation, where money flows towards empathetic
causes, we can actualize a diverse and prosperous society.

What is PEACE COIN?

Concept of PEACE COIN
The Money that can only be used
for Social Good
Capitalism has brought wealth to humanity, but many people
also harbor concerns. For instance, humanity is currently
consuming ecological resources equivalent to 1.75 Earths*,
leading to crises such as climate change and biodiversity loss.
PEACE COIN has characteristics of;
・increasing when used (increment)
・decreasing when not used (decrement)
It is a currency designed with the purpose of being spent, rather
than accumulated. By incentivizing spending and gradually
reducing unused funds, it can be paid more on the emotional
values with which we empathize. The mechanisms of PEACE
COIN come into play in supporting acts of small kindness that
uphold society and activities to preserve nature, the foundation
of life.

What PEACE COIN Solves
Promoting Social Capital circulation
for enhanced Societal Sustainability
When money shifts from being highly preservative to highly
liquid, various values such as Social Capital (trust relationships)
start to be appreciated. A society where Social Capital is
visualized and circulated fosters an increase in everyday
interactions like "thank you" and "you're welcome" that people
want to cherish.
It also draws attention to previously unaddressed issues
in a society where economic rationality has been prioritized.
People's interest extends to areas that require long-term
perspectives and even minor daily inconveniences, leading to
a highly sustainable society.

Features of PEACE COIN (1)
Achieving an Economic System of Circulation:
Circulation Velocity reaches 4.2 times
that of USD
When looking at economic indicators, it is important to consider
not only GDP but also "Velocity of Circulation" as a measure to
determine if many people are able to enjoy services and if there
are ample jobs (roles and places) available to people.
A high Velocity indicates that money is circulating within the
community, creating a community where wealth is smoothly
distributed.
Therefore, the Velocity, which is calculated by dividing GDP
(total transaction volume for PEACE COIN) by M2*, is also an
essential indicator in addition to GDP.

Measure previously unquantifiable values
with “Unpaid-Degree”
11
The messages attached to PEACE COIN are classified in 5 levels
of “Unpaid-Degree.” Activities in areas that have not been
visualized in the past, such as volunteer work, household labor,
gratitude and support are classified as "highly-unpaid." And
activities in areas with high market substitutability are
classified as "lower-unpaid".
Actions with a high Unpaid-Degree represent previously
undervalued actions, including Social Capital. By visualizing
these activities, we can assign value to them.
Out of a total of 794,722,551 transactions (as of the end of 2022),
75.5% fall into Unpaid-Degree 3 to 5. This allows us to visualize
everyday Social Capital that had been overlooked.

The Algorithm of PEACE COIN:
The more you use, the more it increases
12
"ARIGATO CREATION," the increment part of the algorithm, is
the key feature of PEACE COIN. In Fiat Currency, the mechanism
of Credit Creation generates money when someone takes a loan
from financial institutions, increasing the overall money supply
in the market. The borrower aims to achieve profits exceeding
the interest on the borrowed money, based on the assumption of
market or business growth.
On the other hand, with ARIGATO CREATION, the circulation of
tokens (money) increases when tokens are used. Although the
increase per transaction is small compared to Credit Creation,
this decentralized system* where tokens increase with each
transaction of every holder of PEACE COIN has a significant
impact. It also functions in markets that do not rely on growth
assumptions, leading to the resolution of social issues that have
been previously unresolved.
＊The rate of increment varies depending on factors such as the proportion of consumed tokens
to the held token amount.

Use Cases

Pre-introduction of PEACE COIN
What is a Society where everyone
can participate as “Suppliers”?
15
③ Use Cases
In a convenient society, we always participate as "consumers."
When we participate as "suppliers," we are expected to conform
to eﬃcient standards set by companies. Convenience and
eﬃciency tend to overshadow our "true selves."
For instance, some of you enjoy drawing despite not being
skilled or others excel at small tasks and helping others, and if
someone gives you gratitude for your actions, you can participate
in society as a "supplier."
PEACE COIN is a system to issue localized tokens, allowing
communities to design their own algorithms for increase and
decrease. As a result, it encourages community members to
value community uniqueness (culture) and enables everyone to
participate in society as "suppliers." We believe that decentralized
autonomous activities facilitated by this protocol will lead us to
a sustainable future.
In the following pages, we will introduce use cases of communities
that have implemented PEACE COIN.

③ Use Cases
Purpose of Implementation / Result
Eager to create a community where the BISOWA mindset is
conveyed, breaking free from the rigid concept of "fixed prices"
and allowing everyone to have their own independent value
scale.
By using "A.U.S. coin," which is a form of Earth Circulation Play
where feelings are exchanged, members have the freedom to
decide whether or not to send a coin, for example, when someone
makes them a cup of coffee. Moreover, specific interactions are
created, such as expressing gratitude by returning coins if the
recipient feels they have received too many. The concept of
BISOWA is spreading not only through language but also through
sensory understandings among community members.

To create local economic circulation to counter the
outflow of profits to urban areas after money is used
within the region. The goal is to create a mutual
assistance community based on a new concept of
expressing gratitude for activities that cannot be
measured in Fiat Currency.
Through this initiative, the potential value of previously
unseen activities like mutual assistance have been
visualized. Transactions at Unpaid-Degree 3 to 5 made
up 88.4% (approx. 8,500 times). They promote activities
derived from cherished values like forests, food, and
energy.
A community of people seeking reliable and safe
medical and health information about alternative
medicine was growing. They were searching for a
communication tool that goes beyond mere monetary
transactions. This community encompasses various
layers, including practitioners of alternative
medicine, online school students, and users, and
t h e y u t i l i z e t h e t o k e n f o r f o s t e r i n g o r g a n i c
communication cycles. The school attracts students
from multiple locations, including a global students,
thereby expanding the token's online usage.
While running a life design school and urban
development projects, they were seeking local
currencies or new methods to enrich relationships,
not the existing currency system that stimulates
consumer mindset and trading relation.
In addition to utilizing the token for gratitude-based
communication among members of the life design
school, they used it in activities such as flower

Future Outlook
4

Future of PEACE COIN (1)
Revitalizing Local Food Consumption
through the circulation of Social Capital
Since modern times, primary industries and food production have
concentrated in regions with low labor costs, tend to solidifying these
occupations as low-income jobs even in advanced countries. Concerns
arise regarding the negative environmental impact of concentrated
agriculture, such as soil degradation and long-distance transportation.
Decentralized and sustainable production practices are crucial for
primary industries due to the essentiality of food and its potential threat
to food security. Leveraging the convertibility to Fiat Currency and the
characteristics that promote circulation, PEACE COIN aims to promote
local production and consumption, aspiring to create a "glocal"* society.
The development of new communities where everyone collectively
cultivates food and experiences the beneﬁts of nature through food
holds signiﬁcant potential. It enables social participation across all age
groups, fosters a society where Social Capital and food circulate, creates
connections between regions through food, and contributes to the
establishment of a sustainable society.
20
④ Future Outlook
＊"Glocal" is a combination of "global" and "local," implying to think globally and act locally.

Future of PEACE COIN (2)
As a Common Protocol for Impact Metrics
For socially conscious investors and consumers, impact metrics
and ESG criteria are helpful in evaluating corporate activities
addressing climate change, educational disparities, poverty,
and other issues. However, the current challenge is the lack of
comprehensive evaluation metrics that encompass multiple
themes, as there are currently separate indicators for each
theme.
PEACE COIN is a design protocol that assumes a circulation-based
evaluation within communities, allowing for utilization across
multiple themes and communities. Moreover, the increase and
decrease rates of localized tokens can be customized to match
each community's needs. This enables stakeholders to evaluate
their autonomous improvements and use them as common indicators
for measuring across diﬀerent themes.
As a result, it is considered to be eﬀective for both sustaining
activities that improve one's own community and for objective
measurements, rather than externally given indicators to be
achieved.

VISION of PEACE COIN
Realizing a Rich Society
that Embraces Diversity
22
④ Future Outlook
Despite the various challenges that persist in modern society, in
order to progress toward a more prosperous society, we need to
expand our efforts beyond economic growth and material wealth
to areas that cannot be measured by conventional standards.
This entails not neglecting the important people and things in our
daily lives. In the formation of a rich society that appreciates
each other's values, we believe that creating a decentralized
system driven by the autonomy of community participants, rather
than relying on uniform measures, is effective.
Through initiatives that highlight the power of mutual assistance,
such as Social Capital, PEACE COIN can play a crucial role in advancing
beyond the current capitalist system to a "New Capitalism." As
introduced in this report, as specific activities increase, we will
come one step closer to realizing a diverse and prosperous society
that embraces each other's differences.
