How MiLyfe works. Every algorithm, every parameter, explained plainly.
| Amount | 100 $MLY per citizen per week |
| Schedule | Every Monday at 6:00 AM UTC |
| Eligibility | All members with active wallets |
| Cooldown | Min 6 days between distributions |
| Source | Community Treasury |
Every citizen receives a flat 100 $MLY weekly into their spending pot. This ensures everyone can participate in the community economy regardless of circumstances. UBI runs automatically and cannot be revoked by any individual — it requires a governance vote to change parameters.
| Rate | 1% per day (compound) |
| Schedule | Daily at 3:00 AM UTC |
| Floor | 0 (facets never go negative) |
| Affected | All 8 standing facets equally |
| Exemption | None — everyone decays equally |
Standing decays at 1% per day using compound reduction. This means a score of 50 loses 0.5 points per day. After 30 days without activity, a score of 50 would be ~36.3. Decay ensures standing reflects recent community contribution, not historical reputation. The only way to maintain or grow standing is through continued participation: attestations from other citizens, completing quests, and community service.
| Facets | Neighbor, Carer, Maker, Teacher, Keeper, Voice, Shop, Helper |
| Range | 0 to 100 per facet |
| Growth | Via attestations from other citizens (+weight) |
| Max attestation weight | 5 points per attestation |
| Daily attestation limit | 5 per person (giving) |
Standing is not a single score — it's 8 separate facets representing different ways you contribute. Neighbor means you're present and helpful locally. Carer means you look after people. Maker means you create things. Teacher means you share knowledge. Keeper means you protect the community. Voice means you participate in governance. Shop means you're active in the marketplace. Helper means you do community service. Each facet grows independently through attestations from other citizens, weighted 0.1 to 5 points.
| Min standing to propose | 5.0 overall |
| Voting period | 3 to 30 days (proposer chooses) |
| Quorum (general) | 10 votes minimum |
| Quorum (treasury) | 15 votes minimum |
| Quorum (amendment) | 25 votes minimum |
| Quorum (recall) | 20 votes minimum |
| Pass condition | Quorum met + majority votes FOR |
Any citizen with standing ≥ 5 can create a proposal. The voting period is set by the proposer (3–30 days). During this time, any citizen can vote once (FOR or AGAINST). When the period closes, the system checks: (1) Did enough people vote (quorum)? (2) Did more people vote FOR than AGAINST? Both conditions must be true for a proposal to pass. Quorum requirements scale with the seriousness of the proposal category.
| Check frequency | Daily at 4:00 AM UTC |
| Trigger | Resource expires_at passes current time |
| Action | Mark stale + generate verification quest |
| Quest reward | 5–15 $MLY from treasury |
| Quest expiry | 7 days |
Community resources (shelters, food banks, services) have expiration dates. When a resource expires, it's marked "stale" and a verification quest is automatically created. Citizens can earn $MLY by physically verifying that a resource still exists and updating its information. This keeps the community directory accurate without relying on a central authority.
| Max per transfer | 10,000 $MLY |
| Rate limit | 10 transfers per minute |
| Wallet freeze | Safety team can freeze wallets |
| Self-transfer | Blocked |
| Atomicity | Database transaction (no partial transfers) |
Transfers are atomic — either the full amount moves or nothing does. There's no way to end up in an inconsistent state. Wallets can be frozen by the safety team in cases of suspected coercion or fraud. The 10,000 $MLY cap per transfer prevents accidental large transfers. Rate limiting prevents automated draining attacks.
