today an important cornerstone towards implementing FEP-0837 in #flohmarkt has been finished: i overhauled the backend of the currency system. Each currency now relies on a single global identifier in the form of an URL. We hope for most of these to be URLs to #wikidata entities in the future but of course we did not compromise the ability to have free-form currencies. When a user creates a free-form currency, there will be a URL for that instance.

I am by the way amazed that #wikidata has "hug" as a well-defined entity. So even if you want to use hugs as your currency, you can do that in full compliance to the semantic system :) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q328703

@grindhold@23.social Does it have to be a URL, or is a URI sufficient?

@grindhold@23.social This part of FEP-0837 may need to be improved: https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/fep-0837-federated-marketplace/3501/31 However, even if we decide that resourceConformsTo could be an ActivityPub object, its unique identifier would still be a URL.
