  Great, thank you for those resources For followers on, the answer is in section 3.3.2 of the whitepaper (currently page 31) and boils down to: > A very important feature of the PoU token is that it is designed to not become a speculative crypto asset. As it is permanently locked with the user’s public key, it cannot be transferred and hence traded. While we envision delegation of voting power along the lines of liquid democracy principles, this delegation can always be revoked by the user so the PoU tokens granted back to the user is actually not related to the monetary relationship between the user and Wildland, but is a side-effect of merely participating in the experiment. Those tokens appear to grant the user voting rights on the product roadmap of Wildland, although it's not obvious how one would "spend" those PoU tokens given that they can't be transferred back to Wildland in order to buy a feature They talk about it in terms of voting based on the accumulation of PoU, which I think understand, but if Jeff Bezos got to vote 54B times for President and did not have to _spend_ any one of those 54B assets to do so, the country will perpetually do whatever Jeff wants without any real risk of overtaking that king of the hill status
