What is Resilience?
Resilience is a path-based redistribution protocol for guaranteed basic income. It uses a multi‑server system built on Ripple‑style ledger architecture. Learn more at resilience.me.
Trustlines & Trust Index
Trustlines let you connect with others and allow funds (CAD$ or Satoshi) to route through the network. Setting a 2% or 3% trust index is recommended for most participants to diversify risk and improve routing reliability.
- Diversifies risk — you aren’t relying on one path
- Improves network resilience and fairness
- Enables more efficient routing of payments
Visualizing multiple trust paths increasing network resilience.
How to Set Your Trust Index
- Log in to your Canadian-Dollar.Money or Lightningsatoshi.net account (once registered).
- Navigate to Accounts in your dashboard.
- Select the contact or account you wish to trust.
- Set a percentage to 2%.
- Save your changes. Your trustline will now route funds accordingly.
Tip: Start small (2%) and increase as you build confidence with your network participants.
Quick Start Guide
1. Register at lightningsatoshi.net and/or canadian-dollar.money. You no longer require an invitation, registration is open.
2. Connect
Log in and set up your trustlines.
3. Set Trust Index
Choose 1-2% for safe routing. Remember, you can slowly increase over time.
4. Transact
Send/receive CAD$ or Satoshi (0.00000001's of a Bitcoin) with confidence. You can transact down to units of 0.001$CAD or Satoshi, the latter being especially useful, as you can send micro-transactions of a Satoshi (0.001 of a sat, or down to 0.0000000001 Bitcoin)!
FAQ
What happens if I set my trust index too high?
You may take on more risk than you are comfortable with, as more of your balance could be routed through others. Keep it between 1-2% for safety unless you fully trust your counterparties.
Do I need to trust everyone?
No. You only set trustlines with people or entities you are comfortable trusting. The network can still route payments through indirect paths if enough participants are connected.
Can I change my trust index later?
Yes, you can adjust your trust percentage at any time. Many users start at 2% and gradually raise it as they build confidence in the network.
