# Abstract > *Bitcoin is money.*\ > \&#xNAN;*Ethereum is a world computer.*\ > \&#xNAN;*Drifters is a breakaway civilization.* Drifters is a framework for building a self-sustaining, citizen-owned economy. It begins with verifiable digital identity (NFTs), introduces a fair-mined currency (Benny), and establishes a digital labor economy in Aevitas where citizens mine value directly. Over time, this economy expands into renewable energy through Project Solar, anchoring Benny to measurable physical output. The system ties human effort to sustainable value through a closed loop that links digital wealth to real-world independence. **Benny is a capped digital currency, first issued through digital mining in Aevitas, and ultimately backed by renewable energy production, governed by its citizens.** --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
