Cryptocurrencies came to the world in the recent decade and attempted tooffer a new order where the financial system is not governed by a centralizedentity, and where you have complete control over your account without the needto trust strangers (governments and banks above all). However, cryptocurrencysystems face many challenges that prevent them from being used as an everydaycoin. In this paper we attempt to take one step forward by introducing acryptocurrency system that has many important properties. Perhaps the mostrevolutionary property is its deterministic operation over a fully asynchronouscommunication network, which has sometimes been mistakenly considered to beimpossible. By avoiding any temporal assumptions, we get a system that isrobust against arbitrary delays in the network, and whose latency is only afunction of the actual communication delay. The presented system is based onfamiliar concepts $-$ banking and democracy. Our banks, just like normal banks,keep their clients' money and perform their clients' requests. However, becauseof the cryptographic scheme, your bank cannot do anything in your accountwithout your permission and its entire operation is transparent so you don'thave to trust it blindly. The democracy means that every operation performed bythe banks (e.g., committing a client transaction) has to be accepted by amajority of the coin holders, in a way that resembles representative democracywhere the banks are the representatives and where each client implicitlydelegates his voting power (the sum of money in his account) to his bank. Aclient can switch banks at any moment, by simply applying a correspondingrequest to the new bank of his choice.
