 Human life consists largely of exchange with other people. Money has established itself as a means of exchange for a fair exchange of services. Money is therefore of fundamental importance for the structure of our society. In the picture, money is depicted as the foundation on which the house of our society is built. Human life consists largely of exchange with other people.

-From the history it is well-known (e.g. [[https://www.google.com/search?q=wunder+von+w%C3%B6rgl|Wunder of Wörgl]]) that new means of payment are accepted only timidly by humans. However, if the principle were understood and the own advantages become evident, humans will use this quite fast for itself. The concept of Minuto can easily be started in one region on a small scale and there the many advantages of a regional currency can come into effect. Other neighboring regions can more easily join and benefit from the already established region. Newly created Minuto in the neighboring regions support and strengthen additionally the already established region. In this way, an ever larger network is created which can also grow supraregionally. However, each region can benefit from the advantages of a regional currency, since the Minuto have the greatest acceptance only in the region in which they were created.+From the history it is well-known (e.g. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W%C3%B6rgl_experiment|Wörgl experiment]]) that new means of payment are accepted only timidly by humans.

 This is one of the fascinating features of Minuto, that the concept can be used supra-regionally and everywhere and yet the individual Minuto bills have the advantages and effect of a regional currency. This is one of the fascinating features of Minuto, that the concept can be used supra-regionally and everywhere and yet the individual Minuto bills have the advantages and effect of a regional currency.

 So far we are used to handing over responsibility for basic things to politics, hoping for change and then complaining when it doesn't work. The current crises are a crisis of consciousness. If enough people become aware that everyone can only change themselves and enough people consciously change their previous habits, then these many small changes can lead us to a whole other world of true prosperity, peace and happiness. So far we are used to handing over responsibility for basic things to politics, hoping for change and then complaining when it doesn't work.
