INTRODUCTION

• What is Food Forest Sardegna?

Food Forest Sardegna© (FFS), born on July 22, 2020, established as a DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization), with the aim of regenerating, redeveloping and re-urbanizing the Sardinian national territory, extending its action also at an international level.

FFS was registered with the Common Law Court with reference number CD/22/848597 as a company and commercial entity, having obtained its official registration on September 16, 2022.

From May 11, 2023, FFS is recognized by the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance (through the Revenue Agency) as an Extra Territorial Body and Organization, with Fiscal Code 92275240924, having the legal nature of a Trust.

It also has its own LEI Code 9845001F757C639EEF32 and S&P CIQ Company ID 1857258835, guaranteeing unlimited operations and jurisdictional freedom on an interplanetary scale.

Finally, FFS was officially registered within the RIN (National Entrepreneurial Register) of the Nation of Sardinia on May 16, 2024, with CORI code rin _ ns _ irn _ 000000005 as a Sardinian National Native Body, Living Trust.

FFS acts as an auditing body for the National Financial Department (DFN) of the Nation of Sardinia, by means of its proprietary blockchain technology BNS (Blockchain Natzionale Sarda), thanks to which complex financial activities are carried out.

• Mission and Vision of Food Forest Sardegna

The Mission of FFS is clear: to protect and enhance the national territory through Permaculture as an organizational design method, integrated with innovative and sustainable techniques, such as Food Forest Gardening, Syntropic and Silvo-Pastoral Agroforestry, Synergistic and Biodynamic Agriculture, Green Building and Energy Autonomy.

This is possible thanks to the managerial and methodical innovation created by FFS, which it has realized and accomplished in a pragmatic form in the financial sphere, through the cooperation realized with Fineconomy Service SUA, for the maximum management of humanitarian social funds accounted on blockchain, and legally transformed into fiat currency with ISO standards by means of a banking affidavit, which guarantees, besides the public view of the certain origin of the electronic funds administered by FFS on behalf of the DFN, the ability to carry out without any concrete financial risk, all activities of high humanitarian purpose for the territorial redevelopments to be carried out, and above all the ability to provide direct support in all realities currently in serious social distress, due to wars, political and social conflicts, or lack of support from the international community due to long bureaucratic and decision-making practices.

The long-term vision of FFS is to bring the Nation of Sardinia to its original prosperity, through a Resource-Based Economic Model. It is a decentralized and sustainable economy, which promotes an approach to life in harmony with the universal laws of the Creator. This model, in addition to benefiting the national environment, is proposed as an educational example for other territorial realities in the world, favoring the overcoming of the current traditional economic system based on capital. The latter, unsustainable by nature, continues to show its limits in national and corporate contexts, heading towards an inevitable extinction.

• Decentralization, Technology, DAO

To make its vision concrete, FFS operates as a DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization), adopting Decentralization as a fundamental principle.

This approach overcomes traditional centralized and hierarchical structures, favoring a distributed decision-making system and, in the case of FFS, using Sociocracy as a governance method.

A pillar of FFS's strategy is the use of latest-generation technologies, in particular the Blockchain, which represents a crucial element of its ecosystem.

The blockchain, in fact, is not limited to supporting the circulation of Crypto currencies, but finds a wide range of uses in Decentralized Finance and especially in political governance. Among these are the tokenization of assets via NFT, the distribution of credit rewards for volunteers and supporters, and the legal certification of deeds and contracts aimed at territorial redevelopment activities, among some of the most striking examples.

• The project's crypto currency: The Food Forest Token© (FFT)

Among the most significant innovations introduced by FFS stands out its polyvalent, credit-based crypto currency, the Food Forest Token© (FFT). This instrument represents a key element of our resource-based ecosystem, marking a crucial step towards the adoption of a sustainable economy on a local and international scale.

In this White Paper, we will deepen the role of the FFT, its functions in the project's economy and the reasons that make a transition from traditional money necessary.

The specifications on the FFT will provide a complete overview of its multiple applications, underlining its value as an engine of global development and innovation.

• Towards the Gift Economy

The ultimate goal of FFS is to realize a zonal micro-ethnic system founded on the gift economy, a model based on sharing and cooperation, rather than competition and accumulation.

This system, adopted and personalized in popular communities, once internal needs are met, generates surplus usable externally.

To make this transition simple, the use of a Sovereign Credit Money is indispensable, managed in a decentralized way by the people, instead of in a private and debt-based form by banks and central institutions.

Thanks to a wise use of sovereign money, it is possible to administer resources efficiently and fairly, making them accessible to realize projects, services, housing and much more, thus contributing to generating well-being, harmony and vitality in the lives of human beings.

The surplus produced becomes added value, which can be reinserted into an economic circuit based on resources, facilitating interconnection with the rest of the community and promoting advantageous commercial exchanges.

• A change of mindset

This White Paper will guide you in understanding how to implement a change of mindset, leaving behind the old and unsustainable system based on capital to embrace a sustainable econometric model founded on Resources.

You will discover that this change is not only achievable, but is already in full swing.

FFS's Silent Revolution is unstoppable.

• From the Roots of the Earth to the Blockchain

We will start from the beginning, from the earth itself, to understand the value of natural resources and their sustainable management through Permaculture - (Part 1 of the White Paper).

We will continue by immersing ourselves in the world of cryptocurrencies and blockchain, illustrating how these technologies are a strength of our entity - (Part 2 of the White Paper).

Finally, we will deepen what the Nation of Sardinia (NS) is and the revolutionary role of the Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS), which supports the circulation of its native Food Forest Token (FFT) and the national sovereign currency, legal tender money, Su Soddu Sardu (¤SRD) - (Part 3 of the White Paper).

PART 1: RESOURCES AND TOOLS

• The crisis of the global capitalist economy

The global capitalist economy, now recognized for its unsustainability, highlights increasingly clear limits.

Numerous scholars highlight its critical points daily, revealing the contradictions of a system that has distorted the role of money, transforming it from a simple medium of exchange to a presumed resource.

This conceptual error has led money to occupy the center of the economy, fueling the illusion that resources are scarce, when in reality it is money itself that is an artificial convention created by the community, and moreover, nowadays, out of thin air!

The planet's resources are abundant and distributed in every corner of the planet, but they are not artificial, and require many natural processes before regenerating once consumed.

What is really missing is their fair, efficient and sustainable management.

The capitalist system, focused on profit and competition, not only accentuates inequalities, but prevents a correct distribution of resources, favoring their accumulation by a few and denying access to others, often in an arbitrary and discriminatory way.

The result is a crisis based on an induced artificial scarcity, while true abundance remains underutilized or even wasted, to the detriment of collective well-being.

We live in a world that is rich and abundant, but the debt-based system rests on scarcity. A paradox as invisible as it is pervasive: every day one is immersed in a system that tries to make one believe that without money one cannot live, while money itself is only a tool, a symbol, not a natural resource, and it is it that cannot exist without us giving it a sense of existence and using it as a tool.

The dominant economy is built on a mechanism of debt that grows out of all proportion: every euro or dollar in circulation is born already loaded with interest, forcing individuals, companies and entire States into an infinite race to repay something that does not yet exist. This perpetual debt is not a system error: it is the system.

It is what allowed control by supranational institutions and private central banks, the only ones authorized to "issue wealth" in a pre-determined manner, for the maintenance of a certain standard of living for those few who, being part of such entities, placed themselves responsible for the management of resources fundamental to individual well-being and primary needs, and also to collective development, but now the blockchain has revolutionized this concept, and made decentralization possible in every area, allowing a new systemic management, for the benefit of the entire community.

The old structure produced growing inequalities, ecological destruction and human alienation. It separated from the resources that surround us, isolating one from another, and pushing towards competition instead of cooperation.

One was led to think that there is not enough for everyone, while in reality the planet overflows with abundance: it was the rules of distribution of resources that were unequal in the debt system, unsustainable, and completely deleterious for humanity.

In this context, money is no longer a tool at the service of the community, but an invisible cage that shapes choices, the use of time, and alters our true value. Whoever controls monetary creation and issuance, controls the economic circulation of resources.

And so, despite having reached technological levels never seen before, one was poorer in meaning, freedom and connection, collectively, since only some, prevaricating over others, still tried to maintain their position of "prominence" in society, even knowing they were running out of time.

Food Forest Sardegna is born from this awareness: we cannot live communally on Earth if we do not first manage its economy appropriately, that is, its resources. A new management is needed, but above all it is necessary to return to the ancient, original ways, which put Life back at the center, not "money", profit, and personal interests.

The time of this system is over, and it is not at all the Creator's plan for human life on Earth.

And this is known both by the individuals who are part of such entities, and by all those who have opened their eyes and begun to listen, with receptive ears, to the "messages" coming from Creation itself.

The time has come for an epochal change. A new earth and a new heaven are at the door.

In an era where the pillars of the economy, health and civic sense seem to waver, the most concrete answer is not to flee somewhere, but to return to the Roots. Returning to the Earth does not mean nostalgia for the past, but a conscious choice of Regeneration.

The Earth asks nothing of us, yet it contains and gives everything necessary for human life: food, oxygen, fertility, life. But only if we learn to listen to it, protect it, take care of it, will we be able to benefit from it together.

Only if one abandons a relationship of exploitation and returns to a relationship of true care for it.

Permaculture, Silvo-Pastoral Syntropic Agroforestry and Natural Farming are concrete practices that put the human being back in dialogue with the ecosystem. Not as a senseless exploiter, but as a participating guardian and protector.

The current crisis is not only economic or environmental: it is systemic.

It is a deep fracture that involves the very meaning of existence, the relationship between individuals, the relationship with time, the Earth and the community. In this context, the response cannot be sectoral or emergency-based: an interdependent regeneration is needed, acting on multiple levels and putting Life at the center. But above all, one that is based on an Eternal Vision.

In the Food Forest Sardegna model, regeneration is a holistic process, integrating ecology, spirituality, technology and social relations.

It is the fruit of a paradigm shift: From a society that isolates individuals to control them, to a community that returns to the origin and cooperates for the maximum prosperity of the entire collective group.

From an economy that measures everything in money, to an economy that measures value in real regeneration, well-being, brotherhood, and respect. No one saves themselves alone, but is saved only thanks to what was accomplished by the Creator. Salvation is able to be collective, freedom becomes shared, prosperity is co-created together, when one lives in respect of the true Law and rejoices in the natural harmony of creation. There is no longer room for criminality, deliberate hatred against the weakest, exploitation and abuse of children, women, men and the elderly.

• The birth of Food Forest Sardegna (FFS)

It is from here that Food Forest Sardegna is born: from the will to cultivate real abundance, to show that living the original plan is possible, already today, even starting from a humble patch of land.

With the aim of addressing and resolving the critical issues of the current economic system, the entity Food Forest Sardegna (FFS) came to light in July 2020 of the Gregorian calendar.

FFS has its roots in that design started in Flumini di Quartu Sant'Elena, in the south of the Nation of Sardinia, in the locality Su Fraigu, which not by chance translated into Italian means precisely "the house under construction", symbolizing the work of building a new home for humanity, with humility and dedication, bringing light and courage, strength and determination, wherever there was still doubt or perplexity.

Since the year "2012", this area has been the reference point for the beginning of a profound spiritual growth, and the implementation of territorial redevelopment and re-urbanization, which today has become community and governmental at a national level, despite having initially been only individual.

Through Permaculture and techniques such as Food Forest Gardening, Syntropic Agroforestry, Synergistic and Biodynamic Agriculture, the first concrete example of an environment self-sufficient from a food point of view was created, integrating solutions for energy and housing autonomy, until officially becoming the first Diplomatic Headquarters of the Nation of Sardinia, as well as being the primary local headquarters of Food Forest Sardegna.

roberto marini vacca, as Executor and Legal Head of State of the Nation of Sardinia, claimed in December 2020, by means of his recognized legal personality, Roberto Marini and through Food Forest Sardegna, transformed that piece of hereditary land of about 2000 sqm, into a visitable model of territorial redevelopment, claimed the sovereignty of the place, and protected the natives from external speculation.

Here, natural resources are managed to ensure sustainability, succession and balanced use in the long term, protecting and increasing Biodiversity.

Through community activities, workshops and public events, this reality offers a tangible example of self-management and safeguarding of the territory, transmitting practical knowledge on the methods and techniques adopted.

This site, diplomatic headquarters of the Nation of Sardinia, has allowed to claim the right of natives to protect their lands, claiming ownership, and transforming them into extra-territorial areas for foreign states, but above all, this action has given way to rediscover the strength of their own community to residents of the island already active in this type of action.

Because cultivating together also means stitching relationships back together, healing the social fabric, generating trust.

The Earth is not just soil: it is also body, spirit, vision.

Returning to it is the first step towards freedom, because he who knows how to cultivate, regenerate, share, can no longer be dominated. "He who works the land, does not make war".

FFS aims to share on an interplanetary scale design models replicable not only throughout the Nation of Sardinia, but also anywhere in the world.

Its methods, easily applicable and of high humanitarian and social impact, demonstrate that living and managing resources differently, is not only possible, but represents the original model of life intended for the human being.

This approach re-establishes a harmonious and divine relationship between the Human Being, the Creator and Creation, respecting life and guaranteeing a prosperous future for humanity as a united family.

• The mission of FFS: The Resource-Based Economy

The mission of FFS is clear: to create a deeply innovative economic model, based on resources and no longer on capital.

But what does this concept mean concretely? And why does it represent the way forward to live in a fair and sustainable society?

In the current capitalist economy, money dominates economic decisions. Production is oriented towards profit, not towards what is really necessary or sustainable.

On the contrary, the resource-based economy places the wise use of resources at the center, recognizing that their intelligent and fair management is essential to satisfy everyone's needs.

This model avoids waste and safeguards the ecological balance of the planet.

Unlike the capitalist model, the resource-based economy promotes collaboration instead of competition, sharing instead of accumulation and collective well-being instead of individual profit.

It is a recognition of the abundance present on Earth, and a commitment to manage it in a responsible and regenerative way, guaranteeing prosperity for past, present and future generations. Regeneration is no longer a utopian dream: it is already underway. It is in the fields that flourish again, in the young people who remain in their native land and who travel to discover new cultures and learn how to improve their environment, it is in the innovators who build decentralized infrastructures, in individuals who self-determine and return to being human first of all.

It is living proof that Decentralization is not chaos, but organic harmony. It is an Ecosystem that grows because its parts collaborate and nourish each other.

The crisis showed us what doesn't work.

Interdependent regeneration shows us what works instead: a way of living, deciding, building and exchanging, founded not on the fear of scarcity, but on trust in shared abundance, a true return to the origin.

• The transition to the gift economy

The natural evolution of the resource-based economy leads to the gift economy. In this model, money, even in its most advanced form, such as the Food Forest Token (FFT), is destined to become superfluous.

Human beings, in fact, recognizing the true nature of abundance and oriented towards the voluntary sharing of resources, will eliminate the need for monetary intermediation except for particular exchanges.

This change is possible thanks to a full awareness that Value, the authentic kind, is intrinsic to the human being himself. And it is, besides being infinite, inestimable.

In this context, the well-being brought by every resource to the collective fabric becomes the central parameter and monetary management will no longer be an instrument of technocratic and financial control, but a means to measure value, capable of differentiating between cultures and different contexts, thanks to a wise use and fair distribution of surpluses, present beyond one's own individual, community, and collective needs.

The gift economy represents a return to the most authentic essence of human cooperation, founded on respect, reciprocity and the valorization of shared abundance.

In this way, human interaction becomes a free and gratuitous exchange, where everyone contributes according to their abilities and receives according to their needs.

To reach this ideal stage in a stable form, a transition phase is necessary, in which money still plays an important role.

In this context, all private currencies, managed by corporate bodies that cling to their "power" lent to them by the community, and that perpetuate the idea that the economy can only function through debt-based money, are being progressively unmasked and disintegrated.

In the current paradigm, money – a symbol devoid of intrinsic value – has been transformed into an absolute paradox. It is produced out of thin air, lent with interest, and generates debt every time it is issued.

Food Forest Sardegna has proclaimed a reversal: money returns to being a tool, not an end. And exchange is no longer founded on competition, but on collaboration. In this model, value is measured in the ability to satisfy real needs, without damaging Life.

The resource-based economy promotes:

• Local autonomy, valuing labor and existing raw materials.

• The redistribution of abundance, not through profit but through participation.

• The transition to the gift, where trust and reciprocity become the true resources in circulation.

For FFS, Earth, water, energy, knowledge and cooperation are the new capitals, and the economic system is designed to regenerate, not to consume. Instruments like the Food Forest Token (FFT) allow to attribute value to regenerative work, without generating debt.

This economy is not imposed. It is cultivated, like a garden. And anyone can participate, wherever they are, transforming their time, their knowledge and their territory into seeds of shared abundance.

The advent of crypto currencies, and more generally of blockchain technology, has revolutionized the exchange of value, allowing direct transactions without the forced intermediation of banks, payment service providers and private financial institutions in general!

The true innovation lies precisely in this possibility: a direct exchange of resources, from individual to individual, eliminating dependence on private and debt-based bank money. The same applies to companies.

This represents a fundamental step towards a fairer, more transparent economy truly oriented towards collective well-being.

• Resources: what they are and why they are the foundation of the discourse

Resources represent everything that the planet and nature have available to satisfy human needs.

These are essential elements such as food, water, energy, fertile soil and raw materials, used to build homes or produce basic necessities, up to the most advanced modern comforts and technologies.

Thanks to innovation and knowledge, we manage to discover, transform and use more and more resources to improve the quality of life on Earth.

Resources are abundant, but require intelligent management, which respects natural cycles and guarantees regeneration and sustainability in the long term.

Without resources, no economy flourishes, regardless of the amount of money possessed by a nation, a state, a people.

Money, in fact, becomes simple numbers on a screen or pieces of paper devoid of real value when they cannot be used in an economic system that favors the well-being and prosperity of those who use them.

This highlights the importance of a prudent and innovative management, production and transformation of resources.

In the Nation of Sardinia, resources, unique in quality and relevance, represent a crucial catalyst for economic development.

Food Forest Sardegna, with over two years of accounting history recorded on blockchain during the entire experimental phase, testifies how these resources are the driving force of a revolutionary popular movement.

What has been achieved is therefore easily applicable to the entire economy internal to the Sardinian territory, in a clear and effective manner, facilitating cultural innovation and conservation of knowledge, enhancing standards of excellence in key sectors: from genuine food with local products, to sustainable housing construction, valuable historical clothing, up to the valorization and protection of archaeological assets, integrating innovation from all social branches, supporting natural cures and collective development, finally giving, especially to young people, access to tools suitable for their generation.

• Permaculture, natural farming and food sovereignty: the practice of change

A new economy is not born from a theory, but from a daily practice that regenerates the soil, nourishes individuals and stitches relationships back together. For Food Forest Sardegna, this practice has a name: Permaculture.

Permaculture is not an agricultural method: it is a method of organization of complex systems, which in its essence is a system of designing life according to the laws of the Creator. It teaches to observe natural cycles, to cooperate with biodiversity, to create resilient environments where each element supports the other.

It is an art of balance, where the design of a vegetable garden, water management or the construction of a house are part of the same living and interconnected organism.

This approach translates into concrete solutions:

• Local and sovereign food production, without dependence on the agrochemical industry.

• Soil regeneration and valorization of biodiversity.

• Green building and energy autonomy, for self-sufficient and healthy communities in the territory.

Everything is designed to generate more than is consumed. Every action becomes an act of regeneration, which nourishes the Earth and strengthens the community.

Food sovereignty, in this context, is not only access to food, but the right of every community to decide how to grow it, and with what values to do so, in full respect of the clear indications given to us by the Creator. Not everything that is edible is really "food" suitable for the human being.

It is true freedom, rooted in the soil and in awareness. And it is the first step towards an interdependent society, where human beings return to be custodians and co-creators of their own habitat, not simple consumers or worse destroyers of the planet.

FFS testifies that it is possible: the transformation of peri-urban land into fertile ecosystems, the redesigning of urban environments, the creation of exchange networks between local projects and communities with international ones, the valorization of regenerative work with reward tools, such as for example the Food Forest Token, which allow to positively quantify the social impact of all participants in this work of human redevelopment, all this is already reality.

Change is not imposed, it is cultivated. And every individual can be its gardener and architect. FFS for this reason, is among the main actors of the European project Naturescapes (https://www.naturescapes-project.com/).

• Active spirituality: reconnecting to oneself, the Creator and Nature

At the root of every crisis – environmental, economic, social – there is a spiritual crisis. Not in the religious sense of the term, but in its real and deeper sense: we have forgotten who we are, where we come from and why we are here. Food Forest Sardegna was also born to remind us of this.

Spirituality is neither theory nor affiliation. It is a living and concrete relationship with Yahuah (the Creator), with Nature and with oneself. It is the awareness that every gesture has its weight, every word a resonance, every life a meaning. It is the return to a natural order that is not tyrannical hierarchy but joyous harmony, not egoic control but mutual trust.

This active spirituality is embodied in simple gestures: hands in the earth, the heart connected, the soul listening. Regeneration is not just technique, it is a sacred act: cultivating an orchard, building a house of wood and raw earth, creating a web of trust, are all prayers in action.

Reconnecting with Yahuah means living in the original design, where every creature has a purpose and every individual is called to manifest their own talents in the service of Life. Nature, in this vision, is mother, sister and teacher: she teaches abundance, cyclicity, coexistence. And she reminds us that true prosperity is not measured in numbers, but in true relationships, free time, soil health and joy in the heart.

Finding oneself is the first step to change the world. When an individual reconnects to their inner mission, they cease to chase imposed models and begin to create from the center. At that moment work is no longer toil, but expression; time is no longer an enemy, but an ally; the economy is no longer a market, but collaboration between free souls.

This is the spirituality of FFS: active, embodied, fertile. A silent force that nourishes every action and guides every decision. Because without spiritual roots, there is no lasting regeneration.

• Money: a tool, not a resource

Money, being an artificial construct and not a natural resource, is exclusively a tool.

It acts as an "intermediary" for the exchange of resources and trade, and to perform functions related to the management and administration of collective societies, to understand their needs.

It is a social convention, designed to make the exchange of goods, resources and services more fluid. However, confusing money with a natural resource generates serious distortions.

Money, in fact, does not nourish, does not build, does not produce energy: these functions belong to resources and, above all, to the human family, which is the true creative and operational engine.

Money should simply facilitate access to and management of resources, not become an end in itself.

It is therefore essential to clarify a fundamental point: money is only the unit of measurement of value.

When used correctly, not as a means for individual enrichment, but as a tool for sharing planetary wealth, it helps to recognize and value what really matters.

Real value resides in each of us, and cannot be reduced or limited to simple numbers on an electronic account or pieces of paper inside a wallet.

• Difference between resources and money: understanding the difference to escape the traps of capitalism

Private and debt-based money, created and accumulated without limits by entities and individuals, is not a real unit of measurement of value, but an instrument of coercion and control.

On the contrary, resources that depend on natural cycles and the health of the planet – are a gift from the Creator, not owned by private individuals.

These resources, in their original and free form, do not belong to any master, have no price and should not be objects of a speculative market for the purpose of impoverishment or enrichment of individuals.

The idea that the human being can claim the right to decide who or what has access to resources through the use of money is the most evident sign of the collapse of contemporary society.

This attitude has led to the point of no return, a crucial moment in which changing lifestyle has become indispensable.

It was necessary to recognize the substantial difference between money and resources: the first, artificial, which if managed destructively, is not sustainable over time in its current form, private and debt-based; the latter, instead, pre-exist money, are naturally sustainable and, above all, FUNDAMENTAL to life.

Resources not only improve the quality of life of every human being daily, but they also represent the tool given by the Creator to make our stay on Earth rich and harmonious and to testify to the exorbitant abundance of the universe itself.

In a resource-based economy, money is no longer debt-based, but credit-based. This approach avoids the centralization of power in the hands of a few and promotes a sustainable distribution of well-being.

Furthermore, it underscores a profound truth: those who pursue a selfish profit, accumulating short-term "wealth", end up compromising their own spirit, condemning themselves to a sort of eternal damnation in the soul, unfortunately becoming unable to grasp the true meaning of life, of its value and of collective harmony.

They seem to "have" more and more in matter, actually having less and less, and feeling empty inside.

To overcome a mentality based on scarcity and accumulation and embrace a perspective of abundance and sharing, it is fundamental to adopt a sovereign credit monetary system.

This is exactly the step taken by FFS with the creation of the Food Forest Token (FFT), a polyfunctional crypto currency that values and facilitates the fair and efficient exchange of resources, laying the foundations for virtuous and valid econometric models.

Thanks to conscious use, a decentralized credit currency allows resources to be managed intelligently, giving life to projects and services that improve the quality of life: regeneration of territorial environments, production of high-quality food and construction of a just and prosperous society for all.

The FFT opened the way to this process, then consolidating into the national sovereign currency of the Nation of Sardinia, Su Soddu Sardu (¤SRD), which today represents the foundation of the economy of the future for all REALLY SOVEREIGN states and their free peoples on Earth.

This transition is not only an economic change, but a profound cultural and mental change.

It invites us to recognize resources for what they really are: abundant, vital goods to be managed in a sustainable way for the needs of the entire human family.

In this new paradigm, money returns to being what it must be: a tool at the service of individuals, and not an end in itself, or what enslaves them on behalf of third parties, and even less an instrument of mass destruction through wars, weapons production, and everything concerning the undignified continuation of atrocities against defenseless individuals.

It works for us, and not we for it.

To become protagonists of this revolutionary change, it is necessary to fully understand the true meaning of money and the role it must assume in a resource-based economy.

In the next paragraph we will deepen precisely this theme:

• What is money in its essence?

A correct understanding of this concept radically transforms the way of seeing the economy and its relationship with resources.

PART 2: WHAT IS MONEY AND WHOSE IS IT?

• What is money?

To fully understand the importance of monetary sovereignty and the role of money in a resource-based economic system, it is essential to start from the roots of the concept of money and its value.

In this context, the studies of the jurist and economist Giacinto Auriti offer an illuminating perspective, while recognizing that many other scholars, even contemporary ones, have deepened these themes significantly.

Auriti teaches us that money does not possess intrinsic value. On the contrary, its value is induced: it arises from the collective trust that a community places in it.

It is not the material of the money (paper, metal or digital format) that determines its value, but the shared acceptance of its validity as a medium of exchange, or as a unit of measurement of value.

This concept highlights that money is first of all a social agreement, a symbol that acquires meaning thanks to the common conviction that it can be used to exchange goods and services.

• The induced value of money

Money is not a natural resource, but a tool designed to facilitate the exchange of resources, in its simplest form.

It allows overcoming the limits of barter and transferring value in time and space. Today, it is also used for much more complex uses.

However, as clarified by Giacinto Auriti, the value of money does not derive from a real intrinsic value, but from the collective trust that a community places in it.

The more a community believes in the validity of money, the more it circulates, stimulating economic exchange.

This induced value of money, however, raises a crucial question: whoever controls money controls the economy and, consequently, the lives of individuals.

When money is centralized in the hands of a few, such as central banks or governments, it becomes an instrument of power, often used to the detriment of collective well-being.

The potential of money to act as a neutral and advantageous means for all therefore depends on who holds control of it and how this power is exercised.

This makes evident the need for fair and decentralized management to ensure that money remains a tool at the service of the community, rather than a means of coercion and exploitation.

• Money as a relationship between phases of time

According to Auriti, money can be understood as a relationship between phases of time.

Thanks to money, it is possible to postpone the consumption of a good, investing its value at a later time.

This makes it a bridge between the present and the future: what is earned today can be used tomorrow.

This temporal aspect is the reason why money is so precious.

However, the way this temporal relationship is managed determines the type of money used, which can be classified into two main categories: debt money and credit money.

• Debt-based money: the Perpetual Trap

Debt money, on which the current economic system is based, is issued by central banks and is lent to states and nations (which we now know perfectly well to be actually commercial corporations from a technical point of view), to entrepreneurial companies, or to individual people, with the addition of interest.

However, few know that these banks "create" these capitals thanks to their own signatures, using as collateral guarantee asset the birth certificates of each individual registered at the registry offices of their "states" of belonging. This is a topic that would require an entire White Paper of its own.

This implies that every time money is created out of nothing, and subsequently issued, a debt is automatically generated.

Citizens, companies and even States must repay not only the amount received as a loan, but also the interest on it.

This system fuels cycles of perpetual indebtedness, in which true wealth, resources, are temporarily used as collateral guarantee, by those who have such power to create and subsequently issue money.

This debt is by its nature incurable, because the money used to cover the interest does not exist at the time of the creation of the initial debt.

Only those who create and emit such money out of thin air can generate new money to "pay" these unsustainable interests, through the activity of "lending" money.

• Credit Money: A Tool for Popular Sovereignty

Contrary to debt money, credit money is born to support individuals directly without generating debts.

It is owned by the people, belongs to the bearer and does not produce interest, and it too is created out of nothing like the money created by banking institutions.

It is created in the first instance by an individual, or by a common collective and, thanks to its decentralized nature, can be recreated unlimitedly according to needs.

Its issuance occurs in a responsible and collective way, based on a conscious understanding of the real needs to be satisfied at a popular, social and national level.

This model ensures that monetary decisions are transparent and managed by the community itself, as happens in the Nation of Sardinia, where the legal tender currency, Su Soddu Sardu (¤SRD), represents the first Sovereign National Currency (VNS) in the world.

This system marked a paradigm shift for the people of the Nation of Sardinia, which has already aided the Nation of Veneto through the creation on BNS of their VNS, the Zecchino (ZEC).

In a credit money system, monetary circulation facilitates the exchange of resources without fueling debt cycles.

Money users are free from financial constraints, as it is not necessary to request loans to obtain the necessary money, nor to return amounts greater than those possessed.

This makes the economy virtuous and for the benefit of the community, eliminating the accumulation and concentration of wealth devoid of merit.

In this context, the Food Forest Token (FFT) is placed, designed to guarantee an exchange based on resources. The FFT acts as a key tool for conversion between national legal tender and other existing fiat currencies, as well as interconnection with various existing monetary ecosystems. It operates as a bridge crypto currency, facilitating organized exchanges with other crypto currencies, complementary currencies and fiat currencies.

This topic will be deepened during the White Paper, offering a complete overview of the role and functionalities of the FFT.

PART 2.1: INSIGHTS ON FINANCE AND MONETARY POLICIES

• Centralized finance vs. decentralized finance

The current system, founded on debt money, is centralized: central banks and large financial institutions control the creation and issuance of money, imposing conditions on those who use it. In this context, financial resources are managed by a few, while the majority of the population suffers the effects of monetary and consequently economic policies, on which they have very little possibility of having a say or of being able to assert their reasons regarding the situation of unsustainability and malaise that such policies generate. This model has contributed to increasing inequalities and maintaining temporary control and economic power in restricted hands.

With the advent of the blockchain, an unprecedented revolution was witnessed: decentralized finance (DeFi) made accessible to all those who have a mobile phone, or a computer, and an internet connection. Blockchain is a particular technology, which allows for example to carry out the creation and put into circulation decentralized crypto currencies, which do not depend on central banks or private institutions, when it is used by individual people and/or communities that understand its programming code, or even develop one integrally. Thanks to this, the management of money and resources passes into the hands of the community, of individuals, and frees itself from the control imposed by private companies and/or groups of corporations deleterious to collective well-being. With blockchain, every transaction is recorded in a transparent and immutable way, and power is distributed over an interplanetary network of users. Thanks to blockchain, it is therefore possible to have a fair financial system, where money belongs to those who use it.

• The Case of the Food Forest Token (FFT)

FFS has adopted this approach with the Food Forest Token (FFT), a credit money designed to facilitate exchanges within its resource-based ecosystem.

The FFT was born as an experimental vector token on the Waves Blockchain, where it was used for more than a calendar year as a case study.

During this period, critical points of the econometric model were identified, difficulties analyzed, benefits recorded and innovative solutions applied to expand the use of the token in social, political and economic areas.

The FFT is not just a medium of exchange, but represents the value induced by the community that uses it, allowing everyone to participate and benefit from the system.

Thanks to this model, it was possible to:

• Realize a political-monetary development case history at a national level.

• Weave international relations and promote relevant economic exchanges.

• Innovate cadastral management and enhance the territory of the Nation of Sardinia.

The Blockchain

Blockchain is a revolutionary technology that allows recording and verifying digital transactions in a secure, transparent and decentralized way.

It is based on a distributed ledger shared among a network of computers, where each transaction is linked to the previous one via encrypted blocks, forming an immutable chain of information.

One of the most distinctive features of a truly decentralized blockchain is the absence of a central authority.

Verification and validation of transactions take place through a distributed consensus among network participants, making the system highly secure and resistant to manipulation or fraudulent interventions.

This technology is not limited to managing digital currencies, but finds applications in many other sectors, including:

• Smart contracts, which automatically execute agreements between parties.

• Traceability of supply chains, ensuring transparency in production and distribution processes.

• Certification of government documents, ensuring authenticity and immutability.

• Storage of sensitive data, archived securely and permanently.

• Decentralization of the financial market, making systems more accessible and inclusive.

• Interoperability of computer systems, facilitating integration between different platforms and technologies.

The list of possible applications of blockchain is continuously expanding and could fill entire books, despite this technology existing concretely for less than twenty years.

Its versatility and innovative potential make it a fundamental tool for the future of finance, governance and global economic development.

• Crypto currencies

Crypto currencies are digital currencies based on blockchain technology, which guarantees security, transparency and, in many cases, also anonymity in transactions.

Unlike traditional currencies issued and regulated by central banks, such as the euro or the US dollar, decentralized crypto currencies do not depend on a central authority.

Their issuance and management can take place through community and autonomous logic, often implemented through DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations).

The "price" of crypto currencies is determined exclusively by the market, that is, by the dynamics of supply and demand, while their value is induced by the trust of the community that uses them. To date, "stable" crypto currencies have also been invented, associated with fiat currencies, making them not as volatile as other crypto currencies, and capable of being used like fiat currencies, but directly on blockchain circuits. Crypto currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum have introduced a system that allows making transactions without banking intermediaries, opening access to a decentralized financial system.

However, these crypto currencies, and others similar to them, present some underlying limitations that effectively prevent an applicability of use on a collective and interplanetary scale that is truly valid.

The creation of new units of crypto currencies, based on complex mining mechanisms, requires an enormous expenditure of resources and energy, making the process not very accessible and unsustainable for a large part of the population, and specifically some have a maximum limit of existing quantity, therefore constituting an effective limitation to their access in terms of use of the same.

Furthermore, some of these currencies are not structured to support models of economy that are truly sustainable and inclusive, but were born to unhinge obsolete assumptions and beliefs.

If designed and used ethically, crypto currencies represent a powerful transition tool for a society free from the constraints imposed by traditional financial institutions. They facilitate the creation of a fairer economy, where anyone has the opportunity to participate without having to pass through intermediaries, especially to develop projects that are socially useful and for collective benefit.

In this context, crypto currencies have become a bridge towards the only sustainable future, capable of overcoming the limitations of the "traditional" economic system, which in reality, is not so at all. It is a few centuries that humanity finds itself in this situation, and is in total systemic unsustainability, since it has moved away from the true original and traditional models of exchange and sharing of resources, which were instead in force at the time of collective societies on a planetary scale, of which the ancient Shardana tradition is evidence, thanks to the various types of archaeological finds and tools found in various areas of the planet, including the megalithic structures typical of that culture and people, direct descendants of Yahuah.

• Monetary and Economic Sovereignty

Monetary and economic sovereignty is the principle whereby a community or a nation has full control over its own currency and over the economic resources that its people are able to manage, without depending on external entities or alien centralized institutions. In a system of monetary sovereignty, money is created, issued and managed directly by the people, and in our case through a Sociocratic Public Administration (PAS), which responds to the needs of the community, rather than by central banks or foreign governments. This model allows breaking dependence on debt-based and usury-based economic systems, where money is created to the advantage of a few, while the majority is forced to live in undignified situations bordering on misery, and without even respect for fundamental human rights which internationally everyone always fills their mouths with in political rallies, but which are then not respected except by a few individuals.

In a sovereign economy, money is no longer an instrument of control, but becomes a means to circulate resources in a fair, sustainable and efficient way. Credit money, issued without debt, allows financing local projects, creating infrastructure, supporting agriculture, and improving the quality of life without impoverishing the community through the interest system. The true value of money lies not in its possession, but in its ability to be used to create real value, such as food, housing, services and well-being for all.

Economic sovereignty is founded on decentralization, which restores control of economic resources to the people, and on financial transparency, made possible by technologies such as blockchain.

Through this tool, we can ensure that every transaction is visible and verifiable, preventing abuse and manipulation. Monetary sovereignty is therefore the first fundamental block for an economy that puts the human being and collective well-being at the center, rather than individual profit, guaranteeing as fundamental ethics respect for the environment, the safeguarding of communities, and shared social development.

In the next chapter we will explore how these concepts have already been applied by the Nation of Sardinia through innovative tools such as the Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS) and its currencies, the Food Forest Token (FFT) and the Su Soddu Sardu (¤SRD), demonstrating how it is possible to realize concrete and sustainable economic sovereignty.

We will see how decentralization is not only an economic concept, but also a political one. We will in fact explore the concept of sociocracy and how it is at the base of the governance of the Nation of Sardinia (NS). We will see how sociocracy, thanks to its decentralized nature, allows realizing fair and participatory political management, just as blockchain does for the economy.

Continuing reading, it will be understood how economic and political decentralization intersect to give life to a truly sovereign society, based on justice and well-being.

PART 3: THE CONCRETE AND REAL APPLICATION OF ETHICAL AND SOCIAL PRINCIPLES.

• Sociocracy: A Decentralized Governance Model

Sociocracy is a governance model based on the decentralization of decision-making power, in contrast to representative democracy, which relies on the delegation of power to elected representatives. In a sociocratic system, decisions are not made by an elite or by a few representatives, but by decision-making circles composed of all members of the community or organization. These circles operate autonomously and in a coordinated manner, ensuring that each member has a say and that decisions are made through assent, rather than with a majority decision imposition.

In representative democracy, individuals elect representatives who decide on their behalf, but this system often leads to a detachment between rulers and ruled, and often creates inequalities in the decision-making process. Sociocracy, on the contrary, aims at transparency, active participation of all members and the creation of a system in which power is distributed equally. It is a system that reflects the values of justice, participation and cooperation.

Similarly to blockchain, which decentralizes control and ensures transparency in the economic system, sociocracy distributes political power, ensuring that every voice is heard and respected.

Sociocracy is not just a system, but a philosophy that places the community at the center, creating an environment where shared decisions lead to better and more sustainable results for all.

• The Nation of Sardinia

The Nation of Sardinia is a sovereign, autonomous and decentralized nation, which strives with its own political and economic management for the concrete improvement and resolution of collective problems, not only of its native people but of all its compatriots of different nativity. Its statute is founded on the basis that the people must govern themselves without external interference, managing their own resources, territory and political system interdependently.

This process of self-management takes place through a sociocratic system, in which the people are an active part of the decision-making process, in every administrative, social, ethical, cultural, political, financial, economic, anthropological and organizational sphere.

Following this, the Nation can relate to other peoples of the Earth with the maximum of its capabilities and provide effective and cutting-edge solutions to overcome the challenges that today's world brings us.

The Nation of Sardinia is not subject to governmental control by external central institutions since by right of self-determination in jus cogens it has full legitimacy to self-government, and its decentralized structure allows it to function without the jurisdictional impositions of other state entities. It therefore claims the sovereignty of the Shardana and native Sardinian people and strives to manage sustainably the island's resources, annexed micro islands, surrounding seas and skies, subsoil, and of any other type, through a governance system that places the needs of the territory and its inhabitants at the center, following the full claim made by roberto marini vacca, already starting from December 2020, which was followed by all interplanetary public notification actions. For all specifications, it is possible to visit the official telegram channel https://t.me/NatzioniSardinnia .

• The Relationship between the Nation of Sardinia and Food Forest Sardegna (FFS)

As stated at the beginning of this White Paper, Food Forest Sardegna (FFS) is a Sardinian national native entity that operates within the Nation of Sardinia, and also internationally, primarily carrying out the management of island territorial redevelopment and re-urbanization, thanks to its interplanetary intermediation capacity between international and national institutions, acting as a Trust for the full application of the National Statute of the Island of Sardinia, namely the Statute of Sardinia - Declaration of the Rights of the Shardana Sardinian People.

The relationship is therefore indissoluble and of vital importance between the two: while the Nation of Sardinia deals with political governance and the management of the people's resources, FFS implements the economic model based on resources, and redevelops the territory promoting self-sufficiency.

The Nation of Sardinia is to all intents and purposes the entity that manages, directs, and benefits from the activities carried out by its native entity FFS, which operates in every area necessary in order to be able to create and realize the conditions suitable for the national development of all components of the Nation itself, and to be able to cooperate profitably with any entity, be it national or international.

FFS is one of the most important operational entities in the Nation of Sardinia, in that through its wide-ranging activities, it makes possible the practical application of the principles of resource-based economy, which is one of the pillars of sociocratic and decentralized governance of the Nation of Sardinia.

In addition to this, FFS is the bridge of interconnection between foreign bureaucratic infrastructures and Sardinian ones, thanks to its capacity for administrative management of commercial relations active and in development, between the Nation of Sardinia and other nations of the planet.

This is possible as FFS acts as Auditing body of the National Financial Department (DFN) of the Nation of Sardinia, for the accomplishment for example of complex financial activities, such as the swap from national legal tender currency Su Soddu Sardu (¤SRD) to € Euro Fiat token (EUR tokenized on Sardinian national blockchain), to provide liquidity of electronic funds, necessary for the creation of bank sworn statements of EUR (ISO standard) entrusted to its primary cooperating entity, Fineconomy Service SUA, for the full financial inclusion of the national people and the development of humanitarian projects carried out by the entity, since the same infrastructure on blockchain, now used nationally thanks to its evolution, was initially created thanks to the community of free souls that FFS united in the intent to build the first technological form of full decentralization from the traditional banking system, managed by technocratic entities external to the Nation, that is what is today the Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS), born as FFS Blockchain.

• The National Financial Department (DFN)

The National Financial Department (DFN) is the body of the PAS (Sociocratic Public Administration) of the Nation of Sardinia, responsible for economic-financial administration, national development, and commercial interconnection with foreign countries.

The DFN has the task of creating, regulating and guaranteeing the economic sovereignty of the nation, through the use and development of financial instruments that allow the people to operate both economically and financially autonomously, and not depend on central and/or commercial banks, or traditional financial systems, when they would limit the freedom and sovereignty of the people of the Nation of Sardinia.

The DFN has therefore fully acquired the administration of the Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS) as the platform on which all economic and financial transactions within the Nation of Sardinia are based.

Thanks to this blockchain, it is possible to guarantee transparency and decentralization of all economic-financial operations, giving the national people full control of their own economy and monetary circulation. It operates in close relationship with the National Entrepreneurial Register (RIN), and ensures maximum security of national activities carried out by entrepreneurial entities registered therein.

At the same time, the DFN works to establish collaborations and interconnections with entities that respect and promote universal human rights, contributing to the improvement of collective well-being both within the Nation of Sardinia and on an interplanetary scale.

• A Vision of Sovereignty and Innovation

Thanks to the combination of BNS management and the promotion of autonomous financial policies, the DFN guarantees the Nation of Sardinia a sovereign, transparent and sustainable economic model. This structure allows the national people to have full control over their own economy, strengthening collective well-being and promoting international relations founded on principles of equity and mutual respect.

• The Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS)

The Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS) is a decentralized platform, officially constituted initially thanks to the work of the FFS community, which having created a customized version of the Waves Blockchain having LPoS (Leased Proof of Stake) method, was able to constitute from September 7, 2021 the first version of national financial technology, thanks to the genesis block of the native FFT. Initially therefore, it was the FFS Blockchain, with its FFT Explorer.

The entire development was made viewable through the specific FFS profile on GitHub, where various publications are present, starting from the Blockchain itself with the initial main node, its first desktop wallet, and its explorer.

Following the full self-determination of the Nation of Sardinia, the entire infrastructure was renamed as BNS and evolved with the developments necessary to guarantee its full use at a national level, so that all transactions are transparent, secure and accessible to all the people and to anyone using its explorer.

It represented a fundamental step towards economic sovereignty, as it allowed the nation to create, issue and manage its own Sovereign National Currency (VNS), legal tender money Su Soddu Sardu (¤SRD), without the need to depend on central banks or external financial institutions.

It is therefore possible to activate a personal mining node, to increase its security and decentralization, which activity also allows obtaining new native FFT tokens extracted as reward for each validated block.

Thanks to its first desktop wallet, currently available only on Windows operating system, created and made public in its first version as early as December 14, 2021 as "FFTfx Wallet" , and having published its complete update called "BNS Desktop Wallet" on July 5, 2024 together with the completely updated BNS Explorer, and having also created the first official Web Wallet, the FFS Blockchain, now Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS) has officially become undisputed property of the Nation of Sardinia, revealing the full concession of the entire infrastructure and technology by FFS to the DFN, of which FFS has therefore become the auditing body for all high-purpose national transactions and for international cooperation and intergovernmental transactions, being able to continue to act corporately to carry forward and expand its territorial redevelopment and re-urbanization projects also abroad in an even more guaranteed and protected form in the international sphere.

PART 3.1: FOOD FOREST TOKEN (FFT) AND SU SODDU SARDU (¤SRD)

• So what is the Food Forest Token (FFT)?

The Food Forest Token (FFT), with 5 Million initial units, native token par excellence of the BNS as per recorded genesis block, was created by Food Forest Sardegna in the first instance within the Waves Blockchain with the same quantity for vector experimentation purposes, as viewable via the link of its transaction through the Waves Explorer.

Its primary use objective was to realize the first effective model of resource-based economy, building a real innovative method, to give multifunctional capacity to a crypto currency, the FFT, to facilitate local economic transactions, both linked to territorial redevelopments and sustainable re-urbanization activities carried out by the entity, and to realize guaranteed and secure commercial exchanges in a zonal, rural, and micro-ethnic resource-based econometric model, and also carry out the collateralization of individual movable and immovable assets, access and participate in decentralized finance systems and crypto currency exchanges, and especially, have a unit of measurement of cadastral value of real estate assets of Sardinian natives active part of the community of FFS and the Nation of Sardinia.

To date, the FFT is therefore present on two Blockchains, that of Waves and the Sardinian National one or BNS. The fundamental difference to clarify is that within BNS, it is concretely the native crypto currency, on which the entire operating infrastructure is based. Through the LPoS (Leased Proof of Stake) of BNS, one is able to obtain rewards for each block forged through the work performed by one's own active node in BNS, which has received in leasing a minimum of 1000 FFT.

Interoperability with other blockchains is already being accomplished. The next connection will be made within the Hedera blockchain, which will allow constituting an important cohesion factor with the DeFi environment, and will give greater visibility to the entire existing ecosystem, creating further innovation and technological advancements for FFS and BNS.

The most important function of the native FFT, besides clearly its primary use to cover transaction costs executable on BNS for operations of any kind among the functions available to date, and also those that will be added in the future, which makes its induced value already directly associable with the operation of its nodes, is associated with the service function and reference usage rule within the BNS web wallet, which allows performing the SWAP operation from ¤SRD to € Euro Fiat token, where based on the quantity of FFT owned by the user, it is possible to perform an exchange in a peer-to-peer 1:1 ratio, thus obtaining the ability to perform transactions also in tokenized fiat currency on BNS belonging to a foreign fiat currency, as in this case the EUR obtained in exchange for the VNS of the Nation of Sardinia, and in the case of fully whitelisted accounts, also to be able to carry out exchange actions with traditional financial systems thanks to the auditing service of FFS.

As FFT has become the native crypto currency of BNS, its associability with national activities makes it a real asset in all respects capable of guaranteeing and determining future political and monetary managements that the Nation of Sardinia will decide to implement and apply thanks to its legal tender currency, which will therefore have the capacity to be managed and circulate on a proprietary blockchain financial technology, of which FFT is therefore a reserve of effective value and which grows in the long term, in relation to the effective growth of the Nation itself and its resource-based economic fabric, in a sustainable and ethical manner.

The FFT therefore allows for example to:

• Acquire goods and services within the FFS ecosystem and also within the economy of the Nation of Sardinia.

• Participate in territorial redevelopment and re-urbanization projects receiving participatory credits or support them with philanthropic donations obtaining them in exchange.

• Support the energy, food and housing self-sufficiency of the Nation of Sardinia.

• Perform transactions in legal tender currency Su Soddu Sardu ¤SRD, of which FFT sponsors the transactions, in a transparent and decentralized way, without depending on central banks, thanks to BNS.

The Food Forest Token created on the Waves blockchain instead, was the first example of concrete tokenization, applied to an experimental resource-based econometric model, carried out over a prolonged time frame and in various market niches, which then allowed realizing territorial redevelopment and re-urbanization projects, creating the first international cooperations, with for example the first territorial acquisition completed in Mexico of 15 hectares of territory, whose project equity is still partially accessible to third parties today, and also to carry out financial activities in the decentralized market thanks to the exchange of FFT for other crypto currencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Waves, and stable coins like Tether (USDT), USDC and similar, to be able to make polyfunctional the use capacity of the token itself. The token is in this case reissuable, so as to be functionally relatable to the native FFT circulating in BNS, and it acts as a mirror token for external interconnection in the Waves blockchain, and is therefore capable of being exchanged within the DEXs of the Waves ecosystem or in aggregators and DEXs that support that blockchain and its tokens.

The Food Forest Token (FFT) created on Waves was therefore used within the FFS ecosystem in multiple ways, such as that of being able to exchange goods and services in a decentralized way, through a service created on the Telegram app, thanks to the use of "AcpStore" , one of the first forms of artificial intelligence associated with the field of decentralized e-commerce at the time, promoting a resource-based economy, within the cooperative circuit created by the entity, or for the certification and collateralization of personal properties in the real estate field, even in the form of guarantee currency for the acquisition of land plots internationally.

Differences between FFT on Waves and FFT on BNS in brief

• FFT on Waves: Used for experimental and international purposes, is reissuable, facilitates interconnection with crypto of other blockchains and decentralized markets.

• FFT on BNS: Native and non-reissuable but minable token, which supports the functioning of the national blockchain, internal transactions and economic development projects of the Nation of Sardinia as an instrument of management and validation of swaps.

An Asset for the Future

The FFT is not just a crypto currency, but a real instrument for economic and social development. Thanks to its essence in BNS, the token represents a national reserve of value and a key to the economic sovereignty of the Nation of Sardinia. Furthermore, its ability to interconnect with other blockchains and support international exchanges makes it a versatile and innovative tool, destined to play a central role in the future of the resource-based economy. It was therefore also named as Future Financial Technology.

The ¤SRD: Su Soddu Sardu

The ¤SRD (Su Soddu Sardu) is the Sovereign National Currency (VNS), namely the national legal tender currency of the Nation of Sardinia. Unlike FFT, ¤SRD is used for all legal economic transactions within the Sardinian national territory and is legal tender. The ¤SRD is absolutely the first Sovereign National Currency in the world created directly on Blockchain, and without a central bank. It is issued and regulated by the National Financial Department (DFN), applying itself to applicable monetary policies, thanks to the study of national needs, which gives direct service management provision to FFS, as auditing body, for all complex financial operations or those that require careful and thoughtful supervision of transactions to be completed for SWAPs and entrepreneurial cooperations, social management, specific requests from compatriots, and philanthropic support towards other peoples. It is therefore what gives the Nation of Sardinia full control over its own national monetary policy.

Characteristics of the ¤SRD

• National legal tender: The ¤SRD is valid for all official economic transactions within the Nation of Sardinia.

• Issued on Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS): Its technological infrastructure guarantees transparency, security and decentralization for every operation.

• Administrative management: Management is regulated by the National Financial Department (DFN), in which monetary policies are carried out in appropriate form, and in compliance with the national statute.

• Supervision of FFS: The entity Food Forest Sardegna (FFS) acts as auditor for complex operations or those requiring special supervision, ensuring thoughtful management of transactions.

A Model of Monetary Sovereignty

The ¤SRD represents the pillar of monetary sovereignty of the Nation of Sardinia, conferring full control over national economic and financial policies. This model allows:

• Eliminating dependence on external central banks or alien institutions.

• Managing money autonomously and in line with the needs of the people.

• Implementing economic and social policies that improve collective well-being.

The ¤SRD is not just a currency, but a symbol of sovereignty and innovation, demonstrating how blockchain technology can be used to create a sustainable currency oriented towards the well-being of the community.

Difference between ¤SRD and FFT and their relationship

¤SRD and FFT have distinct but complementary roles within the economy of the Nation of Sardinia. ¤SRD is the VNS that regulates official transactions within the nation, while FFT is the token that ensures the ability to perform such transactions on BNS.

¤SRD was created on BNS in reissuable tokenized form, and is the first VNS in the world, non-speculative, with the ability to perform SWAPs in 1:1 parity ratio with other VNS and € Euro Fiat token currency on BNS, while new units of FFT, not being reissuable, can be created only through mining performed by BNS nodes, and is capable of being exchanged within decentralized markets or acquired directly via FFS, or used as a reserve of value.

Their relationship is harmonious as FFT allows the creation and exchange of value within the Nation of Sardinia thanks to the capacity that ¤SRD guarantees, through the stability and legal legitimacy of economic transactions within the national and international system. They play distinct but complementary roles, having an integrated system that guarantees economic sovereignty and sustainability.

Together, they create a self-sufficient ecosystem that allows the Nation of Sardinia to realize its vision of economic sovereignty, based on fair and sustainable resource management for collective well-being and not for capital accumulation, thanks to its own financial government.

Create your own account in the BNS

BNS wallets, both for computers and smartphones, are the fundamental tool that allows managing one's crypto currencies in a secure, simple and accessible way.

Through the desktop wallet or the web wallet, it is possible to store, send and receive cryptocurrencies such as the Food Forest Token (FFT), ¤SRD, and any other crypto currency present in BNS.

Thanks to the Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS), this process is completely decentralized and secure, giving the user full control of their resources, thanks to full ownership of private keys associated with their account.

Web Wallet : https://portafolliu.blockchainnatzionalesarda.online/; Desktop Wallet (Windows OS) : https://github.com/Food-ForestSardegna/BNS-Desktop-Wallet

It is therefore fundamental to safeguard one's security keys obtained at the time of creating one's account, and also visible in the appropriate areas dedicated to data backups present in the wallets, since they are the only way to guarantee account security, the ability to access it and/or import it on other personal devices, but especially to ensure that no one else can access it! They must never be assigned or shared with third parties, and if they are lost it will be impossible to access the account associated with them! So be careful to preserve them well both with written paper backups well preserved, and with backups on USB sticks or external hard drives.

A Secure and Decentralized System

The security of accounts created in BNS wallets is guaranteed by the decentralized nature of the blockchain.

Each user is the exclusive owner of their private keys, which represent the only way to access the account.

This offers full autonomy and protection, but requires responsible management of the keys themselves.

Specifically, there are two types of keys, the first is concretely a series of words, in unique and unrepeatable sequence for other accounts, called in jargon "SEED", which allow importing the account on any device where one wants to use a wallet among those available of BNS, the second is instead an alpha numeric string that acts as a encoded backup phrase.

Importance of Seeds

They are fundamental for security and access to one's account.

At the time of account creation, the user receives a series of words in sequence, which must be preserved with care, as:

• They are necessary to import it on another device.

• They ensure that no other individual can access the funds.

Warning: If they are lost, it will be impossible to recover access to the account and the monetary resources present in it. Inside each of the available wallets, there is a special security area containing the full backup of the account, which is very important to save.

Tips for Keeping

To ensure the security of one's account, it is important to:

1. Create Paper Backups: Transcribe the seeds on a piece of paper and keep it in a safe place.

2. Use Backup Devices: Save the entire backup on external devices such as USB sticks or hard drives.

3. Never Share them with Third Parties: Keys are personal and must not be shared with anyone, to avoid unauthorized access.

Carefully preserving private keys is the main responsibility of the user, as they guarantee full control and security of the account.

Thanks to BNS wallets, every user can participate in the economy of the Nation of Sardinia with maximum autonomy, enjoying the advantages of advanced, transparent and secure technology.

Knowing that there is also the need to provide practical support to users who want to feel safer, it will also be possible to benefit from a custodial service, managed by the DFN and its internal operators, which will also allow those who wish to interact with BNS without the worry of having to safeguard and/or lose their keys, to have a protection and administration service of an account headed, but in custody of the DFN itself.

Managing FFT and ¤SRD on the Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS)

By creating one's own account through a wallet on BNS, the user can simultaneously manage both FFT and ¤SRD, and any other tokenized crypto currency present and circulating on BNS.

This means being able to perform transactions, receive payments and exchange these two currencies quickly and securely, participating actively in the resource-based economic ecosystem.

This step is essential to become part of the new financial system of the Nation of Sardinia, centered on self-sufficiency and sustainability.

FFS Digital Library

To make this process as simple as possible, many information materials are available and constantly growing within the Food Forest Sardegna digital library on Gitbook, and also in dedicated channels of the Nation of Sardinia.

There are tools and practical guides that help the user create their own account on BNS wallets, manage them effectively and learn to execute the first transactions to become increasingly practical with all available functions, accessible via the dedicated technical support group.

With the continuous support of the community, anyone will be able to approach and participate in this innovative economic and financial system with great ease and security.

A range of possibilities: participate with who you are

You can contribute with goods, services, time, ideas, skills or land. FFS offers a multiplicity of tools and paths to integrate your resources into the circuit. Here are some examples:

6. Training and support: We provide you with basic training and technological tools to support and scale your project.

Change is born from collaboration

Every activated redevelopment is a living cell of the resource-based economy. Every project is a spark that regenerates the human and ecological fabric. If you feel that it is your moment to contribute, there is no need to wait, start today. You don't need to be an expert, you just need vision, intention and will.

CONCLUSIONS

The importance of what is described in this white paper goes far beyond a simple economic or technological change. It is a path that leads us towards the construction of a harmonious and human-scale society, where every individual can regain their dignity and live a life full of meaning. This change, which starts from a radical change of mindset and a series of concrete actions, is the key to passing from an individualistic and competitive society to a cooperative and communal society.

The tools and concepts we have seen—blockchain, monetary sovereignty, resource-based economy, sociocracy—provide us with the foundations for a new social structure, where the human being can live in synergy with his fellows, with nature and with technology. This balance is not a utopia, but a reality we realize every day, tuning in with the love of the Creator and with Truth. Only by reconnecting with these deep values can we create a society that nourishes the soul and, at the same time, responds to the material, social and spiritual needs of every individual. The resulting social well-being is unparalleled: a more serene, fair and sustainable life in which everyone contributes with their talent and passion to collective improvement.

It is no longer about competing to get more than others, but about cooperating to elevate the entire community where everyone contributes to the common good. This model of life promotes continuous growth, not only on a material level, but first of all social and spiritual, generating widespread and lasting prosperity and satisfaction.

The first step to be part of this change is simple: get in touch with Food Forest Sardegna and open your own account on a wallet of the Blockchain Natzionale Sarda (BNS). It is a gesture that marks the beginning of a new journey, a journey that leads us towards a society more just, fairer, and more in tune with the deep essence of humanity.

Welcome to the revolution, welcome to new life.

If you have read this far, it is because in some part of you the call to participate vibrates, to build with your hands, your mind, your soul, your spirit, and your strength, a reality founded on abundance, trust and regeneration.

In Food Forest Sardegna there are no spectators: everyone is an active part of the change. What is needed already exists: resources are there, technology is ready, communities are on the way. Now it's up to you.

Whether you want to:

• Propose a project or activate a local food forest.

• Offer your skills, your tools, your vision.

• Become a miner, trainer, translator, documentarian, farmer, activist.

• Join one of the sociocratic circles of the Nation of Sardinia.

• Or simply write to understand how you can flourish in the common design.
