The Oldest Problem in Economics is About to Get a Very New Solution

▤ Summary

This article introduces Sycloop, a software platform that uses loop-based matching to enable barter exchanges across multiple people. The product aims to solve the classic double coincidence of wants by finding multi-party trade cycles instead of direct one-to-one swaps. It argues that software can make barter more scalable by treating the problem as graph traversal. The platform is already in early access and has an open waitlist for users who want to try it.
