Every second of your attention has value. For the first time, that value belongs to you and the community you live in.

How a number emerged from mathematics — and became the foundation of community wealth.
If human attention is the commodity that makes advertising valuable — if every platform extracts wealth from the time people spend — then how can we quantify and measure the people's time, and who should own it?
The answer wasn't designed. It was derived.
One POCIT token represents 10 days of advertising time — the standard rotation for an ad-block campaign. Ten days is 864,000 seconds.
BitShares, the platform POCITS settles on, supports five decimal places. That means one POCIT divides into exactly 100,000 atomic units.
That's it. The math did the work. We built around it.
"The pete is not designed. It is derived. The math did it. We just built around it."
1 pete = 0.00001 POCIT = 8.64 seconds
The pete is to POCIT what the satoshi is to Bitcoin — the smallest indivisible unit
of value in the ecosystem. Named in honour of Peter Hubbard, legendary automotive
sales trainer and originator of the unit-of-one philosophy that MARC itself embodies.
The Token
When Pocit moves — distributed through grants, spent at merchants, held in personal Trust accounts — it transacts at the Cost Floor. This is the platform's guaranteed exchange floor: the value you hold in your wallet. You may also hear it called pocitcoin — the informal name for Pocit in everyday community use. It feels like money. Because at the CF, it is.
When Pocit is held in reserve — by a county, a Trust Fund, or an institutional account — it functions as tau. Tau is the time asset: a fixed measure of advertising capacity, denominated in petes. Counties hold tau. Trust Funds manage tau inventory. Reserves supply advertising time to the network.
Your Account
Any POCITS member can hold pocitcoin in a personal Trust account — managed by you, visible to no one else, governed by your preferences.
Create one when you join. Hold and spend Pocit received through grants or WeCare programmes. Contribute to your community's Time-Bank.
Institutional pools — corporate benefits, community development, creative grants. Require delegate approval. Must pass the MARC test to operate on the platform.
Community Trust Accounts for WeCare programme participants — funded through the Genesis Grant mechanism. Participants spend against their grant account via QR code at local merchants. Settlement is handled invisibly behind the scenes. Zero friction for the recipient. Zero complexity for the cashier.

The Standard
Every Trust Fund, every advertiser, every partner on POCITS answers the same two questions.
Does wealth flow DOWN to communities, or UP to distant shareholders?
Does the community control what creates value, or does a corporation?
Phase 2
The same mathematical foundation that measures your time watching an ad can measure anything that contains stored human labour.
Oil extraction, refining, and transport represents measurable human time. POCIT's pete — its atomic unit of time — converts any petroleum reserve into a democratic community asset.
Water rights are among the most contested resources on earth. Community-owned water tokens, governed by county delegates, not corporate boards.
Electricity generation. Processing capacity. AI access. All essential resources. All currently owned by corporations extracting wealth from communities. All expressible in time-based democratic units.
"Every resource ultimately represents stored human time. Once you can measure time democratically, you can democratise anything."
Phase 2 natural resource tokenisation begins when the advertising model proves at scale. We build in sequence. This is the sequence.
The Architecture
The TRUST system does not hold your money. It holds nothing.
What it does is govern the rules under which everyone else's holding of community time is managed — through democratic multi-signature authority, constitutional protections, and transparent audit trails settled permanently on the BitShares platform.
Think of it less like a bank and more like a constitution with a treasury attached.
The constitution cannot be captured. The treasury cannot be depleted below its floor. The governance cannot be owned by any single entity.
A billionaire and a community member in New Glasgow both have exactly 86,400 seconds today.
POCITS is the first platform built around that equality rather than the inequality that follows from it.
By measuring value in time — and distributing that value democratically — we don't require charity. We require math.
