Jeff Emmett 2535b6068c Initial seed: graphene as physical currency for regenerative economics 
Seeded with Rory Tews' foundational essay exploring graphene as a
commodity currency — carbon reorganized as store of value, building
material, energy substrate, and carbon sink in one.

Graphene Currency

Exploring graphene as a physical currency for regenerative economics.

Core Thesis

A currency whose unit of account is not an abstraction but a material that enacts the transition — carbon, reorganized. Graphene can simultaneously serve as store of value, building block, energy substrate, and carbon sink.

Key Concepts

  • Carbon as unit of account — the currency is reorganized carbon
  • Natural denomination ladder — quality grades from graphene oxide to pristine CVD
  • Currency that builds what it finances — money becomes material infrastructure
  • Triple-ledger token — financial value, carbon sequestration certificate, and building material asset in one
  • Distributed production — Flash Joule Heating enables participation without geological luck

Repository Structure

  • seed/ — Foundational writings and provocations
  • research/ — Technical and economic research notes
  • models/ — Economic models and denomination frameworks

Origins

Seeded from ideas by Rory Tews on graphene as physical currency for a pluriversal commons.
