CONCEPTUALLY STABLE (Frozen Protocol Mechanics)
RFC-0648: Hamiltonian Economic Dynamics
- Status: PRE-IMPLEMENTATION / STABLE
- Stability: Protocol mechanics frozen
- Tuning: Parameter adjustment only via field testing (Ki, Kp, Kd, bands)
- Changes: No changes to mathematical framework allowed
RFC-0649: Emergent Protocol-Owned Emission (EPOE)
- Status: PRE-IMPLEMENTATION / STABLE
- Stability: Core mechanisms frozen
- Opportunity Windows (injection)
- Demurrage + Burn (extraction)
- Enshrined PID with Protocol Caps
- Anti-Sybil: Genesis + Maintenance
- Tuning: Bandwidths, multipliers, costs adjustable
- Changes: No structural changes allowed
DRAFT (Ready for Review)
RFC-0130: ZK-STARK Primitive Layer
- Status: DRAFT v0.1.0
- Scope: Zero-knowledge proofs without trusted setup
- Circuits: Membership, Reputation, Trust Distance, Balance, Velocity, Delegation
- Kenya Compliance: Recursive compression (45-200 KB → 2-5 KB)
- Integration: W3C Verifiable Credentials
- Next: Review and freeze
RFC-0205: ChapterPassport Protocol
- Status: DRAFT v0.1.0
- Scope: Universal credential for Identity + Economics + Governance
- Layers: Identity Core, Membership, Economic Standing, Attestations, ZK-Proofs
- Integration: RFC-0130 (ZK-STARK), RFC-0648 (Hamiltonian)
- Next: Review and freeze
PRIORITY 1: RFC-0315 (ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT)
RFC-0315: Privacy-Preserving Access Tolls
- Status: ACTIVE DRAFT v0.3.0
- Layer: L2 (Economic Strategy)
- Scope: Dynamic resource allocation with ZK-STARK privacy
- Dependencies:
- ✅ RFC-0130 (ZK-STARK #10 TollClearanceCircuit)
- ✅ RFC-0205 (Passport nullifier lifecycle)
- ✅ RFC-0648 (Hamiltonian velocity scaling)
- Key Features:
- Gas-less toll verification via STARKs
- Kenya-compliant recursive compression (<5KB)
- Trust-scaled discounts via QVL
- Batch verification for router performance
- Implementation:
- ✅ Zig Verifier PoC complete (
features/access-toll/) - ✅ Core data structures (TollClearanceProof, Nullifier, LazyBatch)
- ✅ Replay prevention (NonceCache)
- ✅ Immediate & lazy verification modes
- ✅ 6 unit tests passing
- ✅ Zig Verifier PoC complete (
- Urgency: CRITICAL - Blocks L1/L2 integration
- Next: Winterfell STARK integration, Hamiltonian coupling
- Blocked By: None - ready for extension
PROTOCOL FREEZE POLICY
Effective immediately:
- ❌ NO changes to protocol mechanics on stable RFCs
- ❌ NO new economic primitives without RFC-0315 foundation
- ✅ Parameter tuning via field testing only
- ✅ Implementation bugs can be fixed
- ✅ RFC-0315 completion has priority
Reason: L1 stability required before L2/L4 development
