Ω

What if money could remember
what it's for?

A meta-currency framework where value flows through five dimensions— magnitude, time, place, purpose, and provenance.

Ω = (m, T, L, P, R)

The Problem

Money forgot how to mean

$

Just a number

time
place
purpose
history

Modern money is one-dimensional. A dollar is a dollar is a dollar—regardless of whether it was earned or inherited, saved for decades or spent in seconds, meant for medicine or missiles.

This flatness isn't neutral. It's a design choice that privileges abstraction over meaning, liquidity over intention, and extraction over circulation.

“When money forgets where it came from, it forgets where it should go.”

The Solution

Money that carries meaning

Omnium reimagines currency as a multi-dimensional vector. Each unit carries not just quantity, but temporal behavior, locality, purpose, and provenance.

This isn't about adding complexity—it's about encoding the complexity that already exists in human economic life. Money flows through communities, carries intentions, and builds history. Omnium makes that visible.

A meta-currency where all monetary forms can interoperate, and new forms can emerge organically from human need.

Money that ages differently

Time becomes a dimension of value. Some money decays to encourage flow. Some grows to reward patience. Choose your temporal stratum.

No decay, no growth. A 1-year lockup for medium-term needs.

Example:Saving for a trip, emergency fund

“Moving between temporal strata has costs and benefits, creating a natural market for time-preference without requiring interest rates.”

LLocality

Money that knows where it belongs

Communities create economic membranes—permeable but present. Value circulates locally while remaining connected to the global economy.

Entry Fee1%

A small contribution when joining a community—funds shared resources.

Exit FeeVariable

Communities set their own boundary fees. Higher fees = stronger local circulation.

Within Community1:1

Local currency trades at par within its community. No friction for neighbors.

Local currencies let communities cultivate economic resilience. Money that's meant for your neighborhood stays in your neighborhood—unless there's a good reason for it to leave.

PPurpose

Money that carries intent

Purpose channels let value flow toward meaning. Color your money with intent—and watch alignment emerge.

Adding purpose is free—it restricts where the money can go. Removing purpose costs 3% to strip the intent.

“Receiving Ω-P(education) tells you something about the sender's values.”

RReputation

Money that remembers its journey

Provenance becomes signal. Every unit carries its history— how it was created, earned, gifted, or invested. Meaning accretes rather than vanishes.

The Vision

A framework for what money could become

Omnium isn't a currency. It's a meta-currency—a framework within which all existing monetary forms can interoperate, and new forms can emerge organically from human need.

Local resilience, global connection

Communities can strengthen their internal economies while remaining connected to the wider world.

Time-preference without interest

Demurrage and dividends create natural incentives for saving and spending—no banks required.

Intent-aligned economics

Purpose channels let value flow toward meaning. Fund what you care about, verifiably.

Transparent provenance

Money that carries its history enables new forms of trust and accountability.
