SMILEY is an interface of well-being and prosperity
between a local authority such as a City or a community of common interest such as a sports club and their users.
The SMILEY platform will enable territories, towns, NGOs, social services, sports clubs…
to distribute a SOLAR TOKEN via a mobile application and a credit card in order to increase their purchasing power with local merchants by receiving selective vouchers (for food, pharmacy, school supplies, sports activities, cultural activities…) for all basic necessities and structuring activities for children and adults. This method of payment is similar to that used by other, more fortunate people, and helps to maintain the dignity of these beneficiaries rather than having to queue up to collect a bag of food.
In the blink of an eye, beneficiaries receive and distribute their SOLAR TOKENS
which, like mini Suns, will generate bursts of life in the lives of the most vulnerable and enable neighborhood life to grow alongside the community and local businesses. Because it’s also a system of free exchange: a mother can exchange her children’s clothes for ECUs that she can use to take English lessons, a young person can do social work for his neighbors in exchange for SOLAR TOKENs that will enable him to buy books. It’s a way of strengthening Geneva’s social life, which has been undermined by the distancing induced by the virality of CORONA VIRUS 2.
Keeping the elderly at home and not pushing them towards EMS
is one of our objectives. Many people have very small pensions, and CORONA VIRUS 2 has made payments difficult, especially with a 17% increase in the cost of food. Some pensioners already had nothing to eat on the 20th of the month, and the situation has worsened. Some are now tempted to stop paying the rent in order to eat. But the end result will be eviction from their homes, which will not lead them to the streets, but to EMS (old people’s homes) where they will add to the social burden of the town or territory where they live.
Homeless people will be able to access the city’s social services
This universal identification will close an administrative loophole that currently excludes the homeless, since only possession of a home can give access to social services. Even in modern, wealthy and prosperous cities, this community, even if invisible, exists by the thousands, with families separated from the youngest, creating irreparable wounds in the youngest. The aim is to ensure that no one sleeps on the streets, thereby reducing winter mortality, finding a home for everyone and reducing the insecurity generated by the stress of poverty on the streets.
To function, each person will be identified,
not with a chip under the skin or nanotechnologies such as we are seeing coming, but with the morphology of his or her fingers, which is unique to each individual. With his or her fingers, a person will be able to assert his or her rights even without a cell phone or credit card. Combined with the physical identity, the system generates a universal digital identity which is associated with a data center space managed according to ethical data passive protocols for data management and confidentiality, easy to read and use, in particular also for illiterate people who are still numerous in our communities.
the ECU is a local and international micro-currency
Its value is based on the price of a plate of rice in the territory or town where it is deployed. Its name depends on where it is deployed. It’s a local micro-currency created by and for a local ecosystem. In Geneva, for example, it’s the Geneva SOLAR TOKEN. Another city elsewhere in the world may also deploy a SOLAR TOKEN. In this case, users from one city going to another will be able to pay for their necessities in the same way from one city to another. It’s a stable micro-currency, unconnected to the fluctuations of other currencies around the world, and one that contributes to the achievement of all the sustainable development goals.
