Oakspoke is an experiment.
The Oakspoke Hypothesis:
"Among people who know each other, a shared ledger entry can get you a beer."
How It Works
Claim a spot on the map
Pick a location. That's your home on the Oakspoke network.
Send and receive ACR
Oakspoke runs on ACR. Send it to people at other locations.
Run a forager
A forager is a small, independent appliance that checks the ledger to ensure everything is accurate and consistent. Run one, and you earn ACR for helping keep the system honest.
What Oakspoke Is (and Isn't)
- Not a get-rich-quick crypto scheme
- Not backed by promises or hype
- Just a simple system designed to see what happens when people decide something has value
Can an inexpensive Arduino replace a power-hungry mining operation?
Simple working prototype (costs about $100 to build). This forager is now foraging and earning ACR rewards at location X:75.332aef674c6_Y:159.44684f14f94 (lat/long: 40°57'06"N 73°41'47"W)
Prototype 1.0.5. This forager is now doing real work auditing the Oakspoke network. It also maintains a local copy of the Oakspoke blockchain for security and redundancy.
