THE TEMPOFLUX ECONOMY: A TIME-BASED ECONOMIC MODEL FOR SUSTAINABLE VALUE CREATION —EVIDENCE FROM BANGLADESH

Abstract

This paper provides a reference model for the TempoFlux Economy, a temporal 
economy aiming to solve the problems of sustainability and inequality of traditional fiat 
money pattern economies. Applying a mixed-methods approach, we constructed time-based 
value-creation models, and made quantitative simulations and qualitative analysis in a 
pilot trial in Greenville, California (n=847 residents). Data collection included participant 
surveys, community engagement statistics, and environmental impact indicators for a six
month period (January-June 2024). Results include simulations indicating 53% fall in 
wealth inequality (Gini coefficient 0.75 to 0.35), pilot project results with 42% drop in 
community emissions, 156% rise in volunteering hours and 78% sustained participation. 
The conceptual model combines blockchain technology and AI-powered appeal economy 
and proposes that time banks can offer alternative but sustainable forms of money, safe
