All 117 inter-node links now use [[file:node-name.org][title]] format which renders as clickable hyperlinks in both Emacs (C-c C-o) and web-based org renderers (Gitea, GitHub). Each node retains its :ID: UUID property for Emacs org-roam database features (backlinks, capturing, node-find). Prev format: [[id:uuid][title]] — Emacs only, dead text on web New format: [[file:name.org][title]] — works everywhere

Premium Username Registry on Agora
The DID system is permissionless — anyone generates their own DID via HD key derivation. But human-readable @handles (short names, common words, brand names) are naturally scarce. The early player controls the namespace registry.
- Free tier: any DID can claim a namespace.username on a first-come, first-served basis with proof of key ownership
- Premium tier: short names (2-3 chars), common words, brand names, squatter prevention via auction or annual lease
- Revenue model: $5-$50/year per premium username, auction revenue for highly contested names (single-letter, common surnames). ENS-style: registration fees fund development, not speculation.
At scale: 1M premium usernames at $10/yr average = $10M/yr recurring. The namespace registry is a natural monopoly — the early player's registry is the most widely accepted, so every new user registers there. Network effects lock in.
