The paper presents Wymiennik – an alternative economic system created in 2012 in Warsaw, which uses a grassroots and virtual local currency called alterka. The author discusses the reading inspirations of the Wymiennik participants and their lifestyle to determine how the perceptions of the optimal shape of the nonmonetary exchange system relate to the real practice of its functioning. The paper describes the users’ motivations to participate in the system and the needs it fulfils. The sources of knowledge about the Wymiennik are: twelve in-depth interviews with users and system leaders, discourse analysis and two-year participant observation.
