Shmoney is part of a fast-growing movement of alternative currency networks. This is a movement that is both local and global, linking like-minded people in co-productive trading systems all over the world. One such example in the UK is the network of “Local Exchange Trading Systems” (lets), where groups create their own currency and pay for mailings and credits to start trading. An estimated 300 lets and time banks operate in Britain, numbering 100,000 people.
