The Credit Commons Protocol lets independent entities run their own mutual credit ledgers (including nested/recursive ledgers) and trade with other groups without using money. It provides an OpenAPI specification and a reference implementation (cc-node, cc-server, cc-client) orchestrated with PHP Composer, aiming to connect existing mutual credit networks into a scalable cross-ledger system. It uses a hashchain to keep ledgers in sync across hops without a central authority, and supports converting between community credit and money so businesses can participate in barter networks.
