LUX stands where likes stood: one human rooting for another. Drops are posts. Seeds are building actions that compound.
Fiat Lux
Let there be light. The first command in Genesis is the model under all of WA\: value starts as light that one person gives another.
“The citizen is the seed. The cube is the soil. Circles are the water. Cosmos is the Light. Fiat lux.”

The model
Two kinds of fiat
Fiat is Latin for let it be done. In the Latin Bible, the third verse of Genesis reads fiat lux: let there be light.
Fiat money is the other use of the word. It is not backed by gold or any other commodity. It has value because a government says it does.
LUX starts at the other end. Nobody declares it. A citizen gives it when something is real, one person letting another know: I am rooting for you. Every unit traces to something a citizen witnessed.
| Question | Fiat money | LUX |
|---|---|---|
| Who makes it | An authority declares it | A citizen gives it |
| What stands behind it | Trust in whoever declared it | A moment someone witnessed |
| Where it points | At a price | At a person |
| How much there is | As much as is printed | Infinite, like light |
Light as power
The light is already here
In about an hour, the sunlight reaching Earth carries as much energy as all of us used in 2023. The rain falls free too.
In November 1956, Isaac Asimov published a story called The Last Question. It ends with the first command in Genesis: let there be light.
WA\ aims at a civilization that can live on the light its planet receives. It starts small: one roof that catches its rain, one circle that keeps its own record, one person who tells another the truth.
WA\ through this model
What the light becomes
- Light · LUX
- Where a like stood, there is LUX. Tap it when something is real.
- Water · Drop
- A post that ripples: a moment, an idea or a question, shared with people who care.
- Ground · Seed
- Growth that compounds. Show up to a circle, care for your health, keep learning.
- The citizen
- A person who has verified they are human and owns their own ground. The seed.
- The cube
- Six inner faces, what a life is for, served by six outer faces, what a life runs on. The soil.
- Circles and cosmOS
- A circle is a real business or community on ground it owns. Thirteen of them, reaching each other without a headquarters, are the cosmOS.
- Phone and portal
- On the phone, WA\ is where you give LUX and post a Drop. On any computer, WA\WA\ is the portal where you see where every light came from. The two stay in sync.
- No ads, ever
- Brands earn position through service, not spend.
The motto
Move slow and grow things
In April 2014, Facebook changed its internal motto from move fast and break things to move fast with stable infrastructure. The motto here goes the other way, on purpose.
- Rent the groundOwn the ground
- Ads pay the billsService earns the place
- Grow by takingGrow by giving
- Built to exitBuilt to hand over
One thing to do
Give one light today
Tell one person, in your own words, that you are rooting for them. Name what you saw. That is a LUX, and it counts before any app does.
River of Life
What flows to you, and from you.
What comes home to you flows clear, and every line says where it came from. What you give flows on.
The lens
Clear as crystal
On the last page of the Bible a river of water of life runs out from the throne, clear as crystal.
In the Hawaiian Bible of 1868 the river is ka muliwai o ka wai ola. Wai is water. WA\ is said the same way.
For more than 150 years, plantation ditches took the water of Nā Wai ʻEhā, the Four Great Waters of Maui. Waikapū is one of them. In 2004 the community petitioned to bring the water home. The Hawaiʻi Supreme Court sided with them in 2012, and in 2014 all four streams flowed again. WA\ keeps its headwaters in Waikapū.
WA\ through this lens
Drop, ripple, current, wave
Lux stands where likes stood. Every unit traces to something a citizen witnessed.
-
LUX
Where a like stood, there is LUX: “one human letting another human know that i am rooting for you.”
Given by a citizen who decides something is good, adds value, is funny. Infinite in supply, like light.
-
Drop
A post that ripples. A moment, an idea, a question, shared with people who care.
Earned as citizens post authentic content and verify they are human.
-
Seed
Growth that compounds. Show up to a circle, care for your health, keep learning.
Earned as citizens and cubes grow into circles. They accrue value like interest, measured through the Lux citizens give.
What comes home through Metamorphosis keeps its source. Your own words are kept apart from what a platform or a model wrote about you, and every line says where it came from.
On the phone, a tap gives LUX and a post becomes a Drop. In the portal, WA\WA\, on any computer, you see where every drop came from and where it went, and you edit the site it all flows into. The two stay in sync.
