The project aims to create an ecosystem where attention is fairly distributed, measured, and rewarded through democratic collaboration.\n\n## Why Web4 Matters\nOur current financial system is built on debt, where money supply can never match total debt due to compound interest. This creates an unsustainable race against time. Meanwhile, Web3 systems have replicated these same plutocratic patterns, leading to centralized control of both wealth and attention.\n\n- **Time-based Attention Tokens**: Daily-issued voting power that can't be bought or sold, ensuring fair distribution of attention\n- **Proof of Attention**: Verifiable metrics for measuring and rewarding genuine engagement\n- **Geographic Attention Markets**: Local and global layers of attention economy\n- **Democratic Curation**: Community-driven content discovery without plutocratic influence\n\n[Read the full Web4 Manifesto](https://github.com/dougbutner/web4)\n\n## What We're Building\nTetra is creating the first complete Web4 implementation with:\n\n1. **Attention Economy Tools**: \n   - Daily-issued RA (Raising Awareness) tokens\n   - Local attention markets with regional tokens\n   - Verifiable engagement metrics\n\n2. **Democratic Discovery System**:\n   - Time-weighted voting\n   - Geographic-based content curation\n   - Anti-plutocratic mechanisms\n\n3. **Developer Tools**: \n   - SDKs for attention measurement\n   - APIs for democratic curation\n   - Integration guides\n\n## Current Status\n- ✅ Web4 theoretical framework complete\n- ✅ Initial prototype of attention tokens (RA)\n- 🏗️ Building developer tools\n- 🎯 Next: Implementation of local attention markets\n\n## Funding Goals\n- **$15,000**: Attention token primitives and developer tools\n- **$25,000**: Local attention market implementation\n- **$50,000**: Launch beta version of Tetra platform\n\n## Why Support Us\n- Novel solution to attention economy centralization\n- Democratic alternative to plutocratic social platforms\n- Open source foundation for fair content discovery\n- Clear path to implementation\n\n## Team\n- **Douglas Butner**: Creator of Web4, Lead Architect\n\n## Links\n- [GitHub Organization](https://github.com/TetraGrids)\n- [Web4 Manifesto](https://github.com/dougbutner/web4)\n- [Tetra Website](https://tetra.earth)\n- [Main Developer GitHub](https://github.com/dougbutner/web4)\n\n## Join the Revolution\nHelp us build a future where attention is fairly distributed and democratically curated. Your support will help create open-source tools that any project can use to implement true attention democracy.\n\n\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectGithub": "TetraGrids", "projectTwitter": "tetragrids"}
