The way you earn a coin is by being an active part of the community. Some examples of generating coins would be:
$1 investment into a project is 1 token earned and the ways to invest in a project is determined by the project itself. It can sometimes mean NFT's are involved or gifts.
Volunteering at chosen projects/festivals will have a coin drop attached to it
When we welcome a new business (restaurant, farm, retreat center, festival) into our ecosystem, coin drops for showing up for them within a certain time frame will be released.
This way we are creating a very real, down to earth map and real life involvement of where our grander community is. This is what creates the one connective thread we need and opens avenues of real connection with the intention of building something beautiful for the future.
The Simorgh Token values the entire ecosystem of what is essentially the Nomad Nation. We've identified 4 legs that the Nomad Nation stands on
1. The Space Holders (farms & retreat centers)- these are the people and places that house our traveling facilitators, teachers, musicians, chefs and artists- either through trade of services or rent. Without them we'd be a floating glob. By partnering with these folks we are grounding our presence and giving support to the people who can hold it down which provides real life, fulfilling opportunities to get connected nation wide.
2. The Creators & Volunteers - The people who make it come alive with classes, music, food, reason to gather and art. The people who are looking to lead communities, gatherings and cultures and integrate the old ways in new ways. These are our Nomads. By integrating with these individuals we are filling the space with those who have desire in participating in building community and culture.
3. Businesses - restaurants, retreat centers & festivals are the businesses that the Nomad Nation interacts with most. We integrate businesses based on their values, we are a slow growing community that is case by case and we appreciate businesses that support and value buying from local farms who's ethos is aligned with regenerative, organic, sustainable farming. When we integrate them into the community this adds the layer of guidance on the traveler's path to the places that are building towards each other and being self-sustained.
4. The Investors- these are people who's ethos and values are strongly rooted in a desire to see the future grow in a cohesive and holistic way. These are people who are interested in 501c3's, independent farm businesses, retreat centers, festivals and restaurants that fall within the belief systems that value the creation of a holistic future.
When looking at this in a combined way we can see the whole picture. We hold each other together and support each other by showing up and being an active member. We are one Nomad Nation, this is the thread to connect it all.
