Money is spinning out of control. It’s taking us and the planet along for the ride.
Let’s bring money back down to earth. And use it for things we understand, near the places where we live, starting with local food.
Beetcoin puts our money back to work for us by funding local food ecosystems.
Non-crypto, non-currency.
No volatile trading. No complicated algorithms. No giant carbon footprint.
Instead Beetcoin is a radically new, grassroots flow of money that meets real human needs in real places. One part philanthropy, one part investing, plus a splash of humanism.
It starts with local food.
We need to reimagine the economy from the ground up: what we really value, how we feed one another, how we care for the places where we live and the planet.
Starting with 0% interest loans to local farms and food businesses is both revolutionary and common sense.
Anyone can chip in.
Together we’re creating something that Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and Washington can’t: a flow of money that actually works for us.
Beetcoin is your way to contribute regardless of where you live, how much you know about local food systems, or what you do for a living.
0% loans to local farmers? Now that’s pretty radical.
No banker or venture capitalist will ever give a 0% interest loan. They’d call us nuts for even suggesting it! But 0% loans are exactly what we need to change the economy at the roots.
Right now, we’re organizing local groups that make 0% interest loans to local farmers and food businesses. So far, we’ve made almost $2 million in loans to more than 70 small farms and food enterprises. New groups are in the pipeline, in the US and around the world.

With Beetcoin, there’s no fund manager calling the shots. Locally-formed 0% loan groups democratically decide which local farms and food businesses to fund and why.
When the loans are repaid, the money recirculates locally too. It’s a virtuous cycle of valuing community over profit extraction!
Now’s the time. Join in.
Wherever you look, you can see that our system is increasingly detached from real people, real places, and the real limits of our planet. It’s time to change how we think about money.
