What is a libre currency?

A libre currency is a concept that originated from the Relative Theory of Money.

It is a way to design a currency so that every human, whatever the generation they are part of, produces the same relative amount of money.

The Relative Theory of Money was written by a French mathematician in 2010, and the first libre currency (Ğ1) was born in 2017. Up to this day, Ğ1 is the only libre currency we know of.
