The Ğ1 currency
The Ğ1 currency is a "libre currency" powered by Duniter software. It was created six years ago and now counts more than 6000 co-creator members.
This experiment enabled us to learn a lot, both technically and on a human level. This website is more about the technical side. For practical details, please consult the Ğ1 currency website.

A shared technical governance
Duniter updates take place through global community consultations, for example via the Ğ1vote tool. They are then validated by a technical committee responsible for implementing collective decisions. In the future, Duniter aims to develop on-chain governance tools to encode this operating mode into the protocol.
A vibrant economy
Despite the interest in technology, the primary function of a currency remains exchange! Ǧ1 has a rich economic activity in the densest regions.
Several adverts sites such as Le Bon Coin or Craigslist specifically dedicated to Ğ1 allow people to make contact at a distance to exchange goods or services. The best known, ğchange, has seen over 15,000 offers and requests!
