# About ZuWish

## 愿景与目标

ZuWish旨在促进社会上的善意资金找到合适的捐赠方向，推动生态向有利于协调的方向发展。这个平台通过对不同社区的愿望进行策展以发觉社区间的公共物品建设诉求，以此来预测最有价值的以及最被需要的公共物品建设方向，以促进智慧型捐赠。其核心目标是发现并建立真正的公共物品，以满足社区间共同的需求和意愿。

> **ZuWish是一个能够为多元社区提供公共领域的平台，促进各种社会想象力的交融，用共同的愿望打破社区间的边界，成为一种促进地区性资源协调分配的社会支持系统。**
>
> **ZuWish serves as platform that provides public space for diverse communities. It promotes the integration of various social imagination, breaks the boundaries between communities with common wishes, and will become a social support system that promotes regional resource coordination and distribution.**



**Why we need ZuWish ?**[ZuWish Manifesto EN+CN](https://github.com/4seasCM/ZuWish/blob/main/Manifesto_EN%2BCN.md)



## 公共物品捐赠失灵

1. 捐赠的对象来自于广泛的市场中，大量由个人或者团队提交的“具有公共物品”属性的产品。但是缺乏广泛的其作为有效或者重要的公共物品的共识。目前来说能够比较好判断公共物品属性的机制存在于类似 区块链的具体生态之中，而在广泛的去中心化社会这个生态中却鲜有比较明确的“重要”方向的共识。
2. 对于构建初创社会和去中心化社会（特别是面向 Archipelago 和 初创社会领域）缺少社会层面的共识凝聚，什么是我们需要的。有效的社会层公共物品应该是和切实的诉求相关的，而所谓的公共性就是至少在多个社区、快闪社会 中都有近似的诉求。因此一个公共物品的建立是可以帮助到多个社区来解决具体问题的。
3. 来自个人的捐赠容易变成小额购物，类似于链上的收藏夹。而来自生态的大额捐赠又不一定能够放心交给社区来进行处理，从而只能向类似 Protocol Guild 这样的专项捐赠领域进行捐款。如果能够有效的通过社区实际的探索中所凝练出来的愿望共识来自动化指导捐赠则会同时在捐赠对象的多样性和可以承受的金额上都得到更大的提升。



## ZuWish产品设计

### **Abstract**

ZuWish 希望实现的是：激励社区群岛许愿并将真实的愿望策展，找到不同社区群岛的愿望之间共性的部分并进行深刻的洞察，以提出公共品建设的共识性愿望。从而可以将来自市场以及希望愿望被实现的捐赠者能够更加聪明和有效的将资金给予到能够真实促进去中心化社会发展的愿望之中。

ZuWish 的产品是为了弥补在公共物品捐赠领域的缺失的环节，就是在开始建设之前对方向性的预测。传统的投资领域中，往往需要的是大量的市场调研工作。而在公共物品建设领域，资金的来源大多是捐赠而非商业诉求的，因此市场调研的工作也很难被捐款机构专门推进（非激励相容）。所以 ZuWish 希望通过一套机制设计，让公共物品建设领域的市场调研工作可以被身处去中心化社会之中的建设者们以更加去中心化的形式来完成，以避免对捐赠资金的浪费。



### 为什么探索社区间的公共物品

- 社会型社区之间尚且没有足够有效的支持互相调用能力的协议
- 社区间的公共物品是社区润滑剂和胶水层，有助于发现共同建设的方向
- 社区间公共物品充当中央协调工厂，
- 拓展非业务层面的协作，共同建设公共基础设施
- 在地社区之间会出现竞争
- 更多的一拍即合，而不是你死我活，有利于协调关系的出现



### ZuWish 模块架构

**功能模块**

- 准入机制：考虑采用 [Signature Economic](https://sign.kernel.community/essay) 和 [Zupass](https://github.com/proofcarryingdata/zupass) 来作为准入机制，以确保是价值观匹配的人参与许愿
- 许愿模块：让居民可以输入愿望的内容，功能容易得嵌入到初创社会/社区的主页之中
- 愿望策展协议：将多个来自不同社区的愿望进行策展，并通过智能合约创建对应的自动化捐款金库
- 意图治理模块：通过激励机制，将被策展的愿望进入到公共治理环节，并决定是否是一个被认同的策展
- 激励层：
- 见证模块：采用 EAS 对许愿、策展、捐赠行为进行 Attest

- 金库管理协议



**角色模块**

- 许愿者：提出来自不同背景、视角之下的观察，并贡献出自己的 idea 
- 策展人：帮助发现不同愿望之间的公共性的联系，并策展为一个公共性的愿望
- 资助方：愿意为策展的结果进行捐助
- 执行方：共同建设公共愿望的人，通过建设来获得愿望奖金池中的奖励



**愿望策展**

想象你是一名圣诞老人，或者你作为耶稣。每天都会收到来自全世界的人的愿望，这些愿望中可能反映了这个社会真实的问题，但是愿望太多了！而愿望的策展人将会扮演社会层面的产品经理，去洞察这些来自不同社区的愿望背后所反应的公共性问题所在，并给出详细的共识愿望说明。



### ZuWish 的故事

**这不是一个全新的产品**

不可否认的是， ZuWish 上一个版本是在 2023 年4月份开始设计的 The Wishing Pool 的后来版本，The Wishing Pool 在 Zuzalu Hackthon 以及 EDCON 2023 期间 都进行过设计思路演讲，但是在设计思路上始终没有能够让自己满意，所以开发上迟迟没有开始。

但是在黑山之后，我来到了在泰国清迈的在地社区 4Seas 开始进行 初创社会的探索后，对 The Wishing Pool 的思考更加深入了一些。直到在 Zuzalu 要去中心化的帖子发出来之后，我突然意识到可能要在 2024年面对一个突然兴起的有大量线下社区参与构建的去中心化社会的时候，突然受到了启发。ZuWish 应当更佳关注与面向对 社区间性 的公共物品的 Ligitimacy 的建立，以及要能够帮助到不同社区之间更好的协作。

**为什么仍然希望继续做 ZuWish**

实际上我们从来没有停止探索，我们一直在实践如何让多个社区之间进行更佳有效的协作实践，而我们所探索到的最有效的方式就是：找到多个社区都需要建设的公共物品，所以我们为了集体的诉求而进行合作。这是一举两得的好事情。 

我在 4Seas 期间成立了一个 虚拟社区基金池，专门用于支持愿意需要跨社区参与协作建设的公共物品。实际上我们支持了 MuChiangMai、WamoTopia、CMUBA 等都是由多个社区或者组织协作建立的公共物品。

**华语社区的社区间性的探索**

4Seas 是来自华人社区的 Web3 建设者们共同建立的带有物理空间的社区。而与我们有深入联系的华人社区还有 Plancker、GCC、Uncommons、LxDAO、WAMO 等。这几个社区之间都会尝试去通过跨社区交流、协作公共物品的形似进行深入协作。因此每一个社区都是独立的，但是却有感觉有非常强烈的整体感。







## 群岛，我们的初创社会基础

群岛由无数自组织的社区构成，他们或许是在探索 PopUpCity 的组织形式，或许是在尝试用这样的形式来聚集一群聪明的人来探索先锋的课题。是快闪城市让人们来到了同一个地方形成了小社会/社区，那么一群快闪社区分布在全球足以形成一个大社会。那么在大社会之中，是什么链接起来了这些社区岛屿？

**一个小岛**

独立的个体们加入到 快闪城市的行动，我们希望在这个社区之中能够拥有更多的协作，希望让更多的集体智慧可以被探索。所以在 1个月或2个月的生活中，居民们会参与丰富的公共生活以增进彼此的了解。而 黑客松 则是一个有效的胶水层，让居民们之间必须与其他人进行协作，而居民在协作的过程中获得了友谊以及更多的可能性。一个小岛，一个由80 - 200 人组成的快闪村庄/城市 就是一个临时构建起来的小社会，所有的居民都在为这个社会的体验负责。

**一群小岛**

Zuzalu 去中心化之后（实际上无论是否去中心化），在地球上的大量国家和团队都在策划独特的 快闪村庄/城市 计划。有趣的事情是 Zuzalu 的快闪村庄活动在物理世界结束之后，似乎才是这个小岛真正的开始，我们可以知道的是：所有的快闪城市活动结束之后，都会诞生出一个新的联结紧密的 200 人左右的线上社区。想象一下，通过对 Zuzalu 的模仿，世界上在 2024 年会产生多少新的社区？

我们抽象思考一下：如果将这些独特的小岛，每一个的整体看作是群岛中的居民，这些小岛有自己擅长的领域，有自己独特的思考方式、生活方式，当然也有自己的困惑。那在全球的这些小岛社区中，应该如何进行交互呢？这些岛屿之间如何变成一种协作的关系呢？我想这正是 ZuWish 在探索的主题：社区间性。



**组成初创社会的群岛**

在刚刚的岛屿的思想实验之中，由人组成小岛，由多个小岛组成群岛 在图形学上是分形的结构。毫无疑问，无论在哪种观察尺度上来说，小岛和群岛 都是社会性的。因为无论以人 还是 以岛为主要观察视角，对称的主题都是在时间尺度、空间尺度上具有高度的协同性。 不同之处在于：人和人之间是更容易协调的且更加灵活的，而组织和组织之间是更不容易协调且缺乏交互接口的。

群岛是由多个社区所构建的初创社会，甚至是Popup Society。我会认为，未来的社会就是将会由大量的社区、非政府组织、全球物理飞地 组成一个庞大的 初创社会形态。因此 ZuWish 就是想要在其中去构建 社会交互 这个领域。





当 Zuzalu 走向去中心化之后，一个重要的课题就是如何建立多个社区之间的初创社会关系，以及在初创社会中需要怎样的公共物品建设。 如何通过许愿的方式找到不同社区背后对公共物品建设的共同的诉求，并由此团结起来更多的社区进行协作而不是互相竞争。从这个方面来说我认为 ZuWish 将会在 Zuzalu 去中心化的进程中事非常有价值的，能够让我们直接从数字公共物品过渡到物理层公共品和去中心化社会的数字基建，以及跨社区协作模式的探索。

我做了一张图来说明如何通过 ZuWish 以及 Archipelago 的举措让 Zuzalu 走向去中心化社会：

![从Zuzalu 到初创社会 drawio](https://github.com/4seasCM/ZuWish/assets/10827774/cc840fe8-b9a4-4c11-95b4-4555263353be)



After Zuzalu moves towards decentralization, a significant issue is how to establish startup society relationships among multiple communities, as well as what kind of public goods construction is needed within these startup societies. It's about how to find the common demands for public goods construction behind different communities through the process of making wishes, thereby uniting more communities for collaboration rather than competition. In this regard, I believe ZuWish will be very valuable in the process of Zuzalu's decentralization. It will allow us to transition directly from digital public goods to physical-layer public goods and the digital infrastructure of decentralized societies, as well as the exploration of cross-community collaboration models.

I have made a diagram to illustrate how the initiatives of ZuWish and Archipelago can lead Zuzalu towards a decentralized society:

# ZuWish

## Vision and Goals

ZuWish is dedicated to facilitating the direction of goodwill funds in society towards appropriate donations, encouraging the development of an ecosystem favorable to coordination. The platform curates the wishes of different communities to discover demands for the construction of public goods, thus predicting the most valuable and needed directions for public goods construction to promote intelligent philanthropy. Its core objective is to identify and establish genuine public goods to satisfy the mutual needs and desires of the communities.

> **ZuWish is a platform that offers a public domain for diverse communities, fostering the blending of various social imaginations, breaking down the boundaries between communities with shared aspirations, and becoming a societal support system for the coordinated distribution of regional resources.**

**Why do we need ZuWish?**[ZuWish Manifesto EN+CN](https://github.com/4seasCM/ZuWish/blob/main/Manifesto_EN%2BCN.md)

## Dysfunction in Public Goods Donations

1. Donations come from a wide market of products submitted by individuals or teams that claim to have public goods attributes. However, there is a lack of broad consensus on their validity or importance as effective or significant public goods. Currently, mechanisms that could judge the attributes of public goods effectively exist within specific ecosystems like blockchain, but not so much in the broader decentralized society.
2. There's a lack of societal consensus on what is needed for building start-up societies and decentralized communities, particularly those facing the Archipelago and startup society sectors. Effective public goods at a societal level should be relevant to concrete demands and have a communal nature that is needed by multiple communities or pop-up societies. Thus, the establishment of a public good should help multiple communities address specific problems.
3. Individual donations can turn into small shopping transactions, similar to collecting favorites on a blockchain. On the other hand, large donations from the ecosystem may not necessarily be entrusted to the community to handle, leading to funds being donated to specialized donation areas like Protocol Guild. If we could effectively guide donations through a consensus of wishes refined by actual community explorations, it would greatly enhance both the diversity of donation targets and the amount of funding that can be supported.

## ZuWish Product Design

### **Abstract**

ZuWish aims to incentivize community islands to make wishes and curate genuine desires, finding commonalities between different community islands' wishes, and providing profound insights to propose consensual wishes for public goods construction. This would allow donors who wish to see their aspirations realized to contribute funds more smartly and effectively to desires that truly promote the development of decentralized societies.

ZuWish's product is meant to fill a gap in the public goods donation field: predicting the direction before construction begins. In the traditional investment field, extensive market research is often required. However, in the public goods construction field, funding mostly comes from donations rather than commercial demands, making it difficult for donation organizations to promote market research (as it's not incentive-compatible). ZuWish hopes to allow market research in the public goods construction field to be completed in a more decentralized manner by builders within decentralized societies, to avoid the waste of donated funds.

### Why Explore Public Goods Between Communities

- There is no sufficiently effective protocol to support the call capacity between societal-type communities.
- Public goods between communities act as lubricants and glue, helping to discover directions for joint construction.
- Public goods between communities serve as a central coordination factory.
- Expand non-business-level collaboration to jointly build public infrastructure.
- Competition can occur between local communities.
- More cases of immediate agreement rather than life-or-death struggles, which is conducive to the emergence of coordinated relationships.

### ZuWish Module Architecture

**Functional Modules**

- Admission mechanism: considering the use of [Signature Economic](https://sign.kernel.community/essay) and [Zupass](https://github.com/proofcarryingdata/zupass) as admission mechanisms to ensure that value-aligned individuals participate in making wishes.
- Wishing module: allows residents to enter the content of their wishes, with the function easily embedded in the homepage of startup societies/communities.
- Wishes curation protocol: curates multiple wishes from different communities and creates corresponding automated donation vaults through smart contracts.
- Intent governance module: through incentive mechanisms, curated wishes enter the public governance phase and decide whether it is a recognized curation.
- Incentive layer:
- Witness module: uses EAS to attest to the behaviors of wishing, curating, and donating.
- Vault management protocol

**Role Modules**

- Wishers: offer observations from different backgrounds and perspectives, contributing their ideas.
- Curators: help discover the commonality between different wishes and curate them into a common wish.
- Donors: willing to donate to the curated results.
- Implementers: people who build the public wish together, obtaining rewards from the wish prize pool through construction.

**Wishes Curation**

Imagine you are Santa Claus, or perhaps Jesus himself. Every day, you receive wishes from people around the world, reflecting the real issues of society. But there are too many wishes! The wish curators will act as product managers on a societal level, discerning the communal issues behind these wishes from different communities and providing detailed consensual wish descriptions.

### The Story of ZuWish

**This is Not a New Product**

Undeniably, the previous version of ZuWish was designed in April 2023 as a successor to The Wishing Pool, which had its design philosophy presented at Zuzalu Hackathon and EDCON 2023. However, the design was never quite satisfactory, so development was delayed.

After Montenegro, I came to the local community of 4Seas in Chiang Mai, Thailand, to explore the startup society further, deepening my thoughts on The Wishing Pool. It was after Zuzalu's post on decentralization that I was suddenly inspired by the potential upsurge in 2024 of a decentralized society built with extensive offline community participation. ZuWish should focus more on establishing Legitimacy for public goods that serve inter-community interests and aid in better collaboration between different communities.

**Why We Still Hope to Continue with ZuWish**

In fact, we have never stopped exploring; we are constantly practicing how to facilitate more effective collaborations between multiple communities. The most effective method we've discovered is: to find public goods that multiple communities need to build, so we collaborate for the collective demand. It's a win-win situation.

During my time at 4Seas, I established a virtual community fund pool, dedicated to supporting public goods that require cross-community participation in construction. In fact, we have supported MuChiangMai, WamoTopia, CMUBA, among others, which are public goods built through the collaboration of multiple communities or organizations.

**Exploration of Inter-Community Relationships within the Chinese-speaking Community**

4Seas is a community with a physical space built by Chinese Web3 builders. We have deep connections with other Chinese communities like Plancker, GCC, Uncommons, LxDAO, WAMO, and more. These communities try to collaborate deeply through inter-community communication and shared public goods formation. Each community is independent, but they all feel like a strong collective whole.

## Archipelagos, Our Foundation for Startup Societies

Archipelagos consist of countless self-organized communities, perhaps exploring the organizational form of PopUpCity, or trying to gather a group of smart people to explore avant-garde subjects in such a form. It's the PopUpCity that brings people to the same place to form a small society/community, and a group of PopUp communities distributed globally can form a large society. But within this large society, what links these community islands?

**An Island**

Independent individuals join the action of PopUpCity, hoping to have more collaboration within this community and to explore more collective wisdom. So, during a one or two-month stay, residents will participate in a rich communal life to foster understanding among each other. Hackathons are an effective glue layer, forcing residents to collaborate with others, gaining friendships, and more possibilities in the process. A small island, a flash village/city composed of 80 - 200 people, is a temporarily constructed small society, with all residents responsible for the experience of this society.

**A Group of Islands**

After Zuzalu's decentralization (regardless of whether it is decentralized), a large number of countries and teams around the world are planning unique flash village/city projects. Interestingly, the end of Zuzalu's flash village activities in the physical world seems to be just the beginning of these islands. What we know is that after all flash city events end, a new tightly-knit online community of about 200 people will be born. Imagine, by imitating Zuzalu, how many new communities will arise in the world in 2024?

Let's think abstractly: if we view each of these unique islands as residents of the archipelago, each with their own areas of expertise, unique ways of thinking, lifestyles, and their own perplexities, how should these small island communities interact globally? How can these islands become a cooperative relationship? This is precisely the theme ZuWish explores: inter-community nature.

**Islands Forming a Startup Society**

In the recent thought experiment of islands, composed of individuals and multiple small islands forming archipelagos, the structure is fractal in graphic terms. Undoubtedly, at any observational scale, both the small islands and the archipelagos are societal. Because whether the perspective is human or island-centric, the symmetrical theme is highly cooperative in terms of time scale and spatial scale. The difference is that people are easier to coordinate and more flexible, while organizations are harder to coordinate and lack interactive interfaces.

Archipelagos are startup societies constructed by numerous communities, and can even be considered Popup Societies. I envision that the society of the future will be a vast formation of startup societies composed of a multitude of communities, non-governmental organizations, and global physical enclaves. Therefore, ZuWish aims to build the domain of social interaction within this framework.
