[**Virto.Network**](https://virto.network), is the implementation of the [**Local Incentives Protocol**][whitepaper],
a decentralized payments infrastructure for local communities with social impact.
**Kreivo** is the implementation of the [**Local Incentives Protocol**][whitepaper],
a decentralized infrastructure for real world buisinesses that contribute to local economic growth.

Before Virto there is **Kreivo**, a token-less parachain for Kusama focused on real-world use cases such as
bridging Fiat money with decentralized on&off-ramps, d-commerce or any marketplace communities
Kreivo is a token-less parachain in the [Kusama network](https://kusama.network/) focused on real-world use cases such as
bridging Fiat money with decentralized on&off-ramps, e-commerce or any kind of marketplaces
that transact with day-to-day life goods and services.

As part of our decentralized technology stack we tightly integrate with [Matrix](https://matrix.org),
the decentralized communications protocol that we extend with our plugin runtime [Valor](https://github.com/virto-network/valor)
that allows the creation of high-level and convenient _decentralizable APIs_.
As part of our decentralized technology stack we also integrate with [Matrix](https://matrix.org),
the decentralized communications protocol that we extend with [VOS](https://github.com/virto-network/vos),
a virual operating system to serve the off-chain companion of every organization part of the [Virto Network](https://virto.network).

## Running the parachain

`virto-node` is a parachain, which means it needs to connect to a relay chain to finalize blocks.
The Kreivo runtime can be run with the `polkadot-parachain` node.
To ease the pain of setting up the different nodes required to test the network we use zombienet to set-up
a test network to try out the different features of the parachain.

## Structure

### Core Pallets
### Core modules

- **Payments pallet** is the core payments primitive used by the network that enables secure reversible payments
and configurable fees that allow for the _contributions_ to local communities.
- **Payments pallet** is the core payments primitive used by the network that enables secure reversible payments
and configurable fees that allow for the _contributions_ to local communities.
- **Communities pallet** integrates with Polkadot's *pallet referenda* to provide DAO functionality.
- [**Frame contrib**](https://github.com/virto-network/frame-contrib) includes **pallet pass** and
the traits that enable using nfts as memberships with a gas tank so users can transact without wallets or tokens.
