🚌Transportation Leviathan
Free Token Symbol: FTT
Goal/Mission
The goal of this Leviathan is to provide the whole world with enough transportation by 2040. It works towards a world where transportation is abundant and freely available to anyone. We aim to make public transportation effective and sexy so more people use it. This will reduce the cost of transportation, traffic, and more importantly the number of accidents on the road.
Why Join?
If you love the idea of a world with abundant transportation, you should join this Leviathan. It not only works towards making transportation abundant but also much more efficient.
Items belonging to the Leviathan are kept with its members and go from member to member depending on who needs them and when. Members with the highest level of participation in the Leviathan are more likely to get an item they've requested for than those with a lower level of participation.
You participate by making regular deposits to the valuepools of the Leviathan, sharing items with the community, taking care of items you get from the community, and voting on proposals.
Acquisition Valuepool
This valuepool implements the concept of a distributed garage. A garage is a partner wall on this Leviathan's CanCan channel, that contains at least one transportation item: car, bus, bike, roller, horse, car parts, machines or mechanic equipment, etc.
Any member of the valuepool can partner with the channel and post on his/her garage, items that fit in the transportation item category that he/she is willing to share with other members of the community.
Imagine having free access to an infinite supply of transportation items and all you need to do is to request for what you need; provided you can show proof of trustworthiness or active participation to the community.
That's exactly what a distributed garage is and that is what this valuepool is creating.
A proof is anything that can get other members to trust that providing you access to an item from their respective garages, actually helps advance the cause of the Leviathan. It can be:
An NFT from the valuepool with enough funds locked under it to pay for the item you are requesting for
IOUs showing you've been providing items from your own garage to other members
A badge from an auditor testifying to your active participation, need for the item, or your trustworthiness
A good social credit that channels like Tontines can help you create
The more of each of these you have (displayed on your profile page), the higher your chances of getting a transportation item when you request for one.
The valuepool uses its fund (which it constitutes from members' deposits and sponsoring) to buy and provide members of the community with access to a transportation item when needed. The decision on how many of each transportation item gets purchased is made by the community through votes.
Its vested token is the Vested Acquisition Transportation Token (vaFTT) and its token is the Free Transportation Token (FTT)

Manufacturing Valuepool
This valuepool builds up bottegas in the transportation space so they can help provide enough transportation to the world.
This valuepool funds the creation of its bottegas using what we call an infinite investment strategy.
Infinite Investment strategy:
Step 1 - Valuepool uses X amount from its fund to create non-profit Y
Step 2 - Members of valuepool utilize non-profit Y's services/products and value Y at X+ amount
Step 3 - Y borrows X amount from a bank to reimburse valuepool but is still 100% owned by valuepool
Step 4 - Valuepool uses X amount to create a new non-profit Y2
Its vested token is the Vested Manufacturing Free Transportation Token (vmFTT) and its token is the Free Transportation Token (FTT)
Research Valuepool
This valuepool funds research efforts in the bottegas.
Its vested token is the Vested Research Free Transportation Token (vrFTT) and its token is the Free Transportation Token (FTT)
Transportation Bottegas
These are the renaissance Bottegas with a campus big enough to house experts and their students. They hold 10% experts in research & manufacturing of transportation items and 90% students. The role of the Bottegas is to help the Leviathan reach its goal as fast as possible.
Just like with universities, the objective of the experts is to transmit all their knowledge in the field to the students and the objective of the students is to become experts themselves.
Bottegas have comfortable residences for all their experts and apartment buildings for all their students. All utilities are provided free of charge to all residents of a Bottega.
Just like with a workshop, a Bottega has working spaces, factories, labs, and any other necessary infrastructure where both students & experts work on real transportation projects which is essentially how the experts transmit their knowledge to the students. There are no classes or actual classrooms nor are there any exams or grades. Students' performances are evaluated on the work they do, just like with employees in a tech company.
Both experts or students can get replaced by other experts who are not yet members of the Bottega but prove capable of contributing at a higher level to the Bottega.
How do Bottegas sustain themselves?
Businesses or individuals submit Bottegas, manufacturing, or research orders in the transportation space and Bottegas also manufacture and sell items in the transportation space. All the money generated by Bottegas goes to the Leviathan which uses it to sustain them, create new Bottegas, buy items for its members, or invest in other non-profits.
Bottegas put roughly half of their efforts into completing submitted orders and the other half into working on projects intended to provide enough transportation items to the world.
Tenure
Each expert is responsible for a group of students even if students can still learn from other experts.
After 7 years in a bottega, experts can submit proposals to the manufacturing/research valuepool to get tenure. The more students experts help advance, the higher their chances of getting a favorable vote from the Leviathan's community.
For an expert, getting tenure means having permanent expert status in any Bottega of this Leviathan. Students can become experts and then get tenure as well.
Vision
There will be as many Bottegas as needed in each country around the world to provide each one of those countries with better, cheaper, and ultimately free transportation.
