*** 4. Multi-Level Arbitration & The Ricardian Evidence Vault
|
||||
To address disputes without a central state, contracts reference a tiered system of human judgment (The "Circles" Model). As detailed in the [[file:agora-requirements-10-governance-and-assets.org][Governance]] specifications, this involves escalating from Local Elders to specialized Guilds, and finally to Global Juries.
|
||||
- **Web of Trust (WoT) Level 1:** Arbitrators at Level 1 are selected based on Transitive Trust (e.g., the system finds a mutual connection trusted by both parties within 3 degrees of separation).
|
||||
- **Ricardian Evidence Vault:** During a dispute, parties upload encrypted "Evidence Blobs" to their PDS. Using Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) or Shared Keys, they grant the current level of arbitrators temporary read-access to the evidence without making it public.
|
||||
- **Real-Time Adjudication:** If live hearings are required, the system MUST support VoIP/WebRTC signaling conducted over an authenticated DIDComm v2 channel, utilizing "blind" Community TURN servers if direct P2P fails.
|
||||
- **Audit Trail:** Every ruling, appeal, and evidence hash is permanently stored in the Key Event Log (KEL) for that specific contract, creating a verifiable record of the "trial."

*** 1. The Encrypted Swarm (Blind CDN)
|
||||
If you want to charge for a video, you cannot send the raw file into the P2P swarm. If you did, the first "seeder" would simply share the unencrypted version for free.
|
||||
- **The Locked Box:** The creator encrypts the video with a unique Symmetric Key.
|
||||
- **The Split Structure:** The Note's `contract` field is Public (listing the price, title, and terms), but the `payload` field is a CID pointing to the encrypted video chunks.
|
||||
- **Blind Replication:** Followers and network participants host and seed this encrypted `payload`. They act as a "Blind CDN" (Content Delivery Network)—hosting a file they cannot see.

*** 2. The LSAT Protocol (The Smart Ticket)
|
||||
To automate the purchase and unlocking of this content, Agora uses LSATs (Lightning Service Authentication Tokens).
|
||||
- **The 402 Challenge:** When a viewer clicks "Play," their client attempts to fetch the payload. The PDS responds with an HTTP 402 (Payment Required) error, containing a Lightning Invoice (generated based on the `contract` terms) and a "Macaroon" (a digital ticket).
|
||||
- **The Unlock:** Once the user pays the invoice (e.g., 100 sats), they receive a cryptographic Preimage (proof of payment). They send this Preimage back to the PDS.
|
||||
- **The Result:** The PDS validates the proof and releases the Decryption Key. The video decodes instantly on the client's device. The data may have been downloaded from a friend's PDS (the swarm), but the permission to view it was purchased securely from the creator.

*** 3. Incentivizing the Seeders (Paid Seeding)
|
||||
One of Agora's most innovative features is "Seeder Micro-Rewards." If a follower provides the bandwidth that allows a creator's content to go viral, the network can programmatically share the revenue.
|
||||
- **The Split Payment:** The Note's `contract` can define a Lightning routing split. When the 100 sats are paid via the LSAT, the network routes the funds accordingly:
|
||||
- **90 sats** go to the Creator.
|
||||
- **5 sats** go to the Indexing Relay.
|
||||
- **5 sats** go to the Seeder (the specific follower who provided the data bits).
|
||||
- **The Economic Shift:** "Following" an NGO or an indie creator becomes a way to earn a tiny amount of Bitcoin while supporting their mission. The better the content you seed, the more "tips" your server collects for providing the bandwidth.

*** Physical Collateralization
|
||||
In environments with weak state enforcement, Agora enables the use of physical assets as cryptographically-secured collateral via the PAL (Physical Asset Linking) protocol.
|
||||
|
||||
- **The Pledge:** A user links a Digital Twin token (representing a physical asset like a car or machine) to a Civil Contract Note.
|
||||
- **The Lock:** The contract's logic "freezes" the Digital Twin token. While the user maintains physical possession of the asset, they are cryptographically barred from selling or transferring the digital title until the contract obligations (e.g., a loan repayment) are met.
|
||||
- **Enforcement:** Severe defaults can trigger the "IoT Stick" (see [[file:agora-requirements-07-advanced-integration.org][Advanced Integration]]), where an IoT-enabled smart lock physically disables the asset based on an Arbitration (HDR) ruling.
