Monowhite creatures share rules text. "That which is shared returns multiplied."

Each monowhite creature has all activated, static and triggered abilities of each other monowhite creature. "That which is shared returns multiplied."
4/4
So, I see what you want to do, and something that seems that simple really isn't that simple. (Unless you are making a silver bordered card, but I'm assuming that's not the case)
I think the closest way you can word this would be:
Monowhite creatures you control each have all abilities of each monowhite creature other than that creature that you control.
The template is based off Experiment Kraj. The only wrinkle is that Kraj limits to activated abilities and adding other abilities may lead to rules weirdness. There is also a subset of "rules text" that define characteristics of cards that may or may not interact badly with this template, but that's getting into really high level layer stuff.
I added "you control" assuming you don't want your opponent's creatures getting buffed
The game has yet to actually call out specific monocolors as a defined characteristic, the closest being generically "monocolored", but I don't see why the rules wouldn't be able to.
Despite many people attempting it sharing full rules text between multiple permanents isn't reasonable. You run into problems with CDAs and people will not understand how linked abilities work. You can pick a subsection of abilities and share them such as triggered or activated or even a selection of keywords but all abilities causes problems.

I understand that the ability is strong, and that is why I did not include "that you control", i was thinking about how the slivers work. I'll rework it and use the text on Experiment Kraj as template.
I searched and saw that the game hasn't used the monocolor yet, but I believe it's a very simple term that every player understands, it also makes the ability a lot easier to explain.

I can see how that may cause a lot of problems, I just had this idea of a card and didn't want to forget, so I posted right away. Now is time to tweak.
"Static abilities" are specifically the ones causing problems. You can easily share all activated or triggered abilities and you can find cards that do this. But for static abilities a selection is chosen and that selection is referenced. In theory you could get away with something like "Keyword abilities" as that covers the majority of abilities you want shared.
Discussing more specifics of the card it probably needs to cost 5CMC because it shares ETBs. Sharing those feels comparable to doubling them and that is done at 5CMC.
Monocolor is already done on Guardian of the Guildpact so monowhite should make perfect sense.
