The Protocol

Barter Without Cash.

MeetBarter is a decentralized trust economy where your reputation is your currency.

The Economic Backbone

What is a VP?

The Virtual Pointer (VP) is MeetBarter's internal reference value. It allows users to trade items of different values without using traditional cash.

  • Anti-Inflationary: VP is only created ("minted") when a successful trade is verified by both parties.

  • Trust-Linked: Your ability to hold and trade VP is bound by your Global Trust Score.

  • Secure Escrow: 15% of the trade value is held in Operational Escrow until the meet-up is complete.
