NOVM Action Plan: First Steps to Building a Decentralized Future


Step 1: Understand the Vision

Key Concept:

NOVM is about creating systems that empower individuals, foster growth, align with natural principles, and ensure freedom. To act, you must first internalize the purpose behind the vision.

What to Do:

  1. Read the Core Philosophy: Study NOVM’s pillars of Life, Growth, Alignment, and Freedom. Understand how they apply to your personal life and community.
  2. Reflect on Your Role: Identify how your skills, resources, and passion align with NOVM’s mission. Consider:
    • Are you a builder? (Tech, governance, or infrastructure)
    • An educator? (Bitcoin, sustainability, or decentralization)
    • A connector? (Community organizer, network builder)
  3. Join the Conversation: Engage with NOVM through social media or community channels to stay informed and inspired.

Step 2: Build Sovereignty in Your Own Life

Key Concept:

Decentralization begins with individual action. Before transforming systems, you must take steps to reclaim your personal autonomy and build resilience.

What to Do:

  1. Adopt Bitcoin:
    • Set up a self-custody Bitcoin wallet (e.g., Sparrow, Electrum, or Coldcard).
    • Learn to run a Bitcoin node to contribute to the decentralized network.
    • Start transacting in Bitcoin to reduce reliance on fiat systems.
  2. Learn Privacy Tools:
    • Use encrypted messaging (Session).
    • Secure your online presence with a VPN and password managers.
    • Study self-sovereign identity solutions to protect your data.
  3. Practice Local Sustainability:
    • Grow your own food, reduce waste, and build regenerative habits.
    • Support local businesses and decentralized networks.

Step 3: Engage Locally

Key Concept:

Change starts at the grassroots. Small, local initiatives are the building blocks of decentralized systems.

What to Do:

  1. Organize Bitcoin Education Workshops:
    • Host events in your community to teach Bitcoin basics, self-custody, and economic sovereignty.
    • Partner with local groups to expand reach.
  2. Create a Local DAO Experiment:
    • Identify a simple community need (e.g., a park renovation, local event funding).
    • Form a DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) to pool resources and make decisions transparently.
  3. Launch a Waste-for-Bitcoin Program:
    • Incentivize recycling or cleanup efforts by rewarding participants with Bitcoin.
    • Partner with local businesses or organizations to fund the program.

Step 4: Contribute to NOVM’s Vision

Key Concept:

As a decentralized movement, NOVM’s success depends on contributors taking initiative.

What to Do:

  1. Share Your Expertise:
    • Builders: Contribute to developing decentralized tools, platforms, and systems.
    • Educators: Create content and host workshops to spread knowledge.
    • Organizers: Build local or online communities aligned with NOVM.
  2. Prototype Solutions:
    • Work on small-scale experiments to test decentralized governance, renewable energy projects, or tokenized economies.
    • Document your findings to share with the NOVM community.
  3. Join NOVM Projects:
    • Volunteer for active initiatives like Bitcoin nodes, governance platform pilots, or sustainability projects.
    • Contact us at Contact NOVM to collaborate.

Step 5: Think Big, Act Now

Key Concept:

NOVM is a movement of aligned individuals creating scalable solutions. Start small but think globally.

What to Do:

  1. Engage in the Global Network:
    • Join NOVM’s forums, discussions, and events to connect with like-minded pioneers.
    • Follow progress updates and share your contributions.
  2. Spread the Vision:
    • Advocate for decentralization and share NOVM’s mission with your network.
    • Use your unique voice to inspire others to act.
  3. Support the Movement:
    • Donate resources, time, or funding to support NOVM initiatives.
    • Become an ambassador for NOVM in your community or industry.
