A post on ethresear.ch proposes a mechanism for non-transferable, decaying time credits whose exchange rates adjust algorithmically when task categories show sustained deficits, aiming to fix the skill-mismatch failure of fixed 1:1 time-banking systems like Ithaca Hours and LETS. Beyond supply-gap detection, the design incorporates exit rate, repeat rate, and survey signals to flag task-quality problems, with rates decaying back to a 1:1 baseline to avoid oscillation. The author identifies Sybil resistance as the largest unsolved issue and asks for prior art on multi-signal dynamic-rate systems and Sybil-resistant approaches that avoid centralized identity authorities.
