<p>The Abundance Protocol aims to<strong> create an economy of abundance where economic self-interest, purpose, and the common good align</strong>. </p><p><br></p><p>The protocol offers a <strong>comprehensive solution to the problem of public goods</strong> and addresses the issue of negative externalities in the economy.</p><p><br></p><p>Bitcoin was the first protocol to allow a p2e (peer to ecosystem) exchange, where miners are issued coins in exchange for providing a public good that benefits everyone in the ecosystem – network security through currency inflation.</p><p><br></p><p>Bitcoin and ethereum miners/validators received over $1 trillion worth of cryptocurrency in exchange for providing the specific public good of network security. The abundance protocol's proof-of-impact consensus mechanism strives to <strong>generalize this p2e exchange mechanism to all public and common goods</strong>.</p><p><br></p><p>Find out more about the Proof-of-Impact Consensus Mechanism and what we're building at the protocol at <a href="https://abundance.id/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://abundance.id</a></p><p><br></p><p>The Abundance Protocol graphic board can be viewed here: <a href="https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVPUvJDaU=/?share_link_id=520545651721" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVPUvJDaU=/?share_link_id=520545651721</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Abundance Protocol Whitepaper</strong>:  <a href="https://mirror.xyz/0xabundance.eth/OfWfXtmKgkpCM_GfRvKQz9Owl-bIXfwpXIny_jtNShE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://mirror.xyz/0xabundance.eth/OfWfXtmKgkpCM_GfRvKQz9Owl-bIXfwpXIny_jtNShE</a></p>
