# FoodX

> Decentralising the food economy to increase individual freedom.

**Mission**: Decentralising the food economy to increase individual freedom.

**Charity commitment**: 25% of profits to food charities.

## What FoodX is

An autonomous food network that people, robots, and machines use to know, act, exchange, and own in the food economy, running on FoodBlock (an open protocol).

**Three layers:**
- **FoodBlock**: Open MIT-licensed protocol (type, state, refs) + six base types
- **FoodOS**: Cognitive architecture for each node (intelligence layer)
- **FoodX Node**: Product layer (download and access the peer-to-peer food economy)

## The FoodBlock protocol

Content-addressed, append-only data primitive. Three fields: `type`, `state`, `refs`. Six base types: actor, place, substance, transform, transfer, observe.

```
hash = SHA-256(canonical(type + state + refs))
```

Same content = same hash. Immutable. Updates chain via `refs.updates`. Provenance through refs graph.
