90-Day Guest Trial
Welcome to the Cosmic Commons

A cooperative economy built on Patronage, not extraction

The C3 Alliance is a members-only cooperative where every participant co-stewards shared infrastructure, earns through Patronage, and governs together. Your 90-day trial starts here.

The 90-Day Trial

Your path into the Commons

No commitment required. Your trial gives you a Guest credential, access to the CoCoA AI guide, and 90 days to explore the cooperative before committing to full stewardship.

01
Mint your @G credential

Submit your intent here and CoCoA mints an @G Guest XPT credential — your verifiable identity inside the C3 ecosystem. No wallet required to start.

02
Explore with CoCoA

Your AI guide introduces you to the Factions, how DACOs work, how Patronage is measured, and how the coordination marketplace functions. Learn at your own pace.

03
Find your Faction

Decide whether you're a Producer (Union), Procurer (Guild), or Promoter (Syndicate). Your DACO affiliation determines how you participate and earn.

04
Upgrade to @T:MyKoKo — don't wait

Your @G credential is intentionally limited — read-only access, no bidding on C3-DEX Impact Offers, no signing Voice messages. The full suite unlocks with your @T:MyKoKo subscription. Most guests upgrade well before the 90-day window closes.

@G is a trial pass. @T:MyKoKo is membership. The sooner you upgrade, the sooner your Patronage starts counting.

Your cooperative unit of participation

A DACO — Decentralized Autonomous Cooperative Organization — is the economic entity you steward inside the C3 Alliance. Think of it as your cooperative business unit: it holds your identity, tracks your Patronage, and earns on your behalf.

  • Every member co-stewards a DACO — it is not owned, it is stewarded
  • Your Patronage performance — what you produce, procure, or promote — is your governance voice
  • DACOs earn PPT (Patronage Proof Tokens) and distribute surplus as COMM to co-stewards
  • Your DACO identity lives on the Cardano blockchain — sovereign, verifiable, portable
The Three Factions

Every member is a multi-faction stakeholder

You don't choose a single Faction — you earn across all three simultaneously. Your faction role is determined at the IO layer by what you do on each Impact Offer. The same member earns PDT when delivering work, PCT when consuming commons goods or services, and PMT when performing community outreach. All PPT converts to COMM or burns for governance influence at equal value regardless of which faction earned it.

10,000 PDT = 10,000 PCT = 10,000 PMT. All PPT is equal. Faction simply identifies the role performed on a given IO — not your identity or rank inside the cooperative.

Union · PDT
Producer Patronage
Earned as: PDT · Producer DACO Token

When you complete a work IO — delivering goods, code, content, skilled services, or any tangible output — you earn PDT. This is the Patronage of making. Any member taking a producer role on an IO earns as Union.

Triggered by: fulfilling work IOs, delivering outputs
Guild · PCT
Procurer Patronage
Earned as: PCT · Procurer DACO Token

When you use commons goods or services procured through the cooperative — sourcing, consuming, or coordinating resources — you earn PCT. This is the Patronage of stewarding flow. Any member procuring on an IO earns as Guild.

Triggered by: using commons resources, procuring on IOs
Syndicate · PMT
Promoter Patronage
Earned as: PMT · Promoter DACO Token

When you perform community services — mentoring guests, onboarding members, expanding the network, or growing the Commons — you earn PMT. This is the Patronage of catalyzing. Any member promoting on an IO earns as Syndicate.

Triggered by: community IOs, referrals, mentorship

What happens to your PPT?
All earned PPT — regardless of faction — converts to COMM (your wealth accumulation token) or can be burned for governance influence inside your DACO. Patronage is the heartbeat of the cooperative. Everything else — surplus, treasury, sovereignty — flows from it.

You won't navigate this alone

Every guest in the C3 Alliance is assigned a C3-Buddy — a Syndicate member or Pontisto-Mayor who mentors you through your 90-day trial. They are your first point of contact, your guide into the Commons, and your sponsor inside the cooperative.

Once you mint your @G credential, a Syndicate member from the C3 Alliance will be personally assigned to welcome you, answer your questions, and walk you through your first 90 days inside the Commons.

A note on responsibility: Your C3-Buddy is not just a guide — they are your sponsor. By accepting you into the trial, they personally vouch for your participation. The cooperative holds them accountable for how you engage during your 90 days. This is how trust is built inside the Commons.
