Token architecture — proposed

Coordinate the network
Keep the obligation clear

A protocol token can coordinate service participation and governance — the actual liability of a data commitment must be backed by its separately reserved collateral

A role before a ticker

The proposed token is a coordination mechanism for the protocol — its role must be validated against real demand for accountable data delivery before finalizing supply or distribution

  • Service registration — proposed participation requirements for data-service providers
  • Protocol governance — proposed control over future protocol parameters and service standards
  • Existing commitments — already accepted terms should remain fixed rather than being rewritten by a later governance decision

These roles are design proposals — no registration or governance contract is live

Separate the token from the liability

The token coordinates participation
Reserved collateral defines the limit

A project token price is not a measure of compensation capacity — the liability cap, accepted collateral asset and reserved balance belong to each specific commitment

The initial model uses illustrative USDG units for a separately funded bond and fee — it does not value the proposed token, offer a yield or make an unlimited guarantee

Robinhood Chain mainnet supports EVM deployment — issuing a token on the chain does not put it in the Robinhood App
