BRAIN Use Cases

Explore real-world scenarios where BRAIN's tools and philosophy enhance efficiency, connectivity, and simplicity.

1. Paythering: Simplified Daily Transactions

You're at home and realize there's no milk. While getting dressed and grabbing your keys, you check available LND networks:

  • REWE: Stable, open network (saved).
  • The group next door: Insecure network.
  • The bakery in the corner: Friendly, open network (saved).

You enable your channel to the REWE network with 9 capacity. At the store, you buy some bread and deli meat, and when you reach the checkout, you pay instantly using LND.

Back home, you turn off the LND network to conserve resources and optimize network efficiency.

Key Benefits:

  • Efficiency: Instant payments without complex setups.
  • Simplicity: Only activate networks as needed.
  • Adaptability: Works with existing hardware and devices.

2. Education and Politics: IA-Supported, Not Driven

BRAIN transforms traditional education systems into dynamic, student-focused ecosystems. Teachers and students collaborate using integrated tools:

  • Nextcloud: Acts as the primary desktop for calendar, files, and forms.
  • Matrix: Facilitates quizzes and communication with tools like FORMS.
  • WordPress: Serves as a shared canvas for ideas and documentation.
  • OpenOffice: Enhances local document editing capabilities.

Example Workflow:

  1. A teacher generates tests and quizzes in Nextcloud FORMS.
  2. They share the materials with students via Matrix.
  3. Students collaborate on projects using WordPress.
  4. Teachers focus on providing feedback rather than managing fragmented systems.

Key Features:

  • Gamification: Makes learning engaging and interactive.
  • Efficiency: Old devices (smartphones, laptops) are repurposed for educational use.
  • Simplicity: Minimal software requirements (Signal, Nextcloud, OpenOffice, browser).

3. Financial Inclusion in Schools

Imagine a school system where payments between parents and the school are streamlined without investing in expensive infrastructure. Using LND on old devices:

  • Teachers can organize activities like football matches or field trips.
  • Parents can make payments securely and instantly.
  • The network operates on existing devices, promoting cost efficiency.

Key Benefits:

  • Affordability: Uses old hardware instead of costly upgrades.
  • Sustainability: Encourages reuse of existing devices.
  • Flexibility: Payments and communication adapt to the school’s needs.

4. Principles of Simplicity and Scalability

BRAIN systems evolve organically by starting with simple tools:

  • Focus on interest-driven timing instead of rigid schedules.
  • Allow individuals to manage their own "instances," seamlessly connecting to others.
  • Gradually develop more complex tools as the need arises.

Why It Works:

  • Efficiency: Clear, simple systems prevent overwhelm and confusion.
  • Scalability: Start small and grow as the ecosystem demands.
  • Sustainability: Reuse existing devices and focus on functional integration.
