If ETH is “consensus fuel”, then PAT could be seen as “social fuel” for a DBVN, that is hosted on top of a network-state like Ethereum, and the acquisition of non-tradeable reputation tokens PoA, PoN and PoC, a form of “social mining” where the reward is PAT, forming an incentive network both for securing the Pangea Arbitration Token as well as for securing Pangea as a jurisdiction through provable contract compliance, and curation of contracts as well as shared legal codes (within virtual nations that compete in a free market for governance. )

Similar to mining rewards, accumulating non-tradeable reputation tokens (PoA, PoN and PoC) is, akin to solving proof-of-work puzzles, a measure of contribution to society, and therefore rewarded with PAT tokens. The intrinsic value of PAT is what forms an incentive to collect (non-tradeable) reputation, as well as the intrinsic value of the reputation tokens (which signal that a person has a habit of completing contract agreements, and so on. )

The pre-sale of PAT is ongoing until November 9, with a 30% bonus, a good opportunity to become a shareholder in a global jurisdiction, whose value will continue to grow.

The PAT transaction fees are used for paying for contract curation, via Bitnation citizens that are incenvitized by proof-of-nomic (PoN) rewards, similar to how ETH transaction fees pays for consensus of contract state.

PAT transaction fees also rewards citizen reputation build-up (proof-of-agreement), and co-ordination around shared legal codes (proof-of-collective), both which are to the Pangea jurisdiction what consensus around state is to the underlying network-state infrastructure (for example the Ethereum “world computer”, or Bitlattice. )

PAT in that sense covers costs that are associated with a DBVN similar to how ETH pays for “broadly recognized contract state”, by incentivizing the growth of PoA, PoN and PoC trails, which provide a society with something akin to Hobbes’s “leviathan”, and does so in a fully opt-in and voluntary way, made possibly by “consensus technology” such as the Ethereum “world computer”.

Pre-sale ongoing until November 9th, with a 30% bonus of PAT.
