Evidencepartial
payment-gated messaging, where every transmitted message requires cryptographic proof of a Bitcoin payment, deterring spam through economic incentives rather than moderation
Implicationpartial
Explicitly stated as a core architectural pattern in the abstract and detailed in design principle P2.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
BitSov, an architectural framework for sovereign internet infrastructure that composes existing decentralized technologies (Bitcoin, Lightning Network, decentralized storage, federated messaging, and mesh connectivity) into a unified, eight-layer protocol stack anchored to Bitcoin's base layer.
Implicationpartial
Directly and clearly stated in the abstract and architectural description.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
timechain-locked contracts, which anchor subscriptions and licenses to Bitcoin block height (the timechain) rather than calendar dates
Implicationpartial
Explicitly stated as a core architectural pattern in the abstract and detailed in design principle P5.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
A dual settlement model supports both on-chain transactions for permanence and auditability and Lightning micropayments for high-frequency messaging.
Implicationpartial
Directly stated in the abstract and described in the architectural layers section.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
The Bitcoin keypair is the user. All authority (authentication, payment capability, messaging identity, content authorship) derives from it. No intermediary holds credentials.
Implicationpartial
Explicitly defined as the foundational design principle P1 in the architectural framework.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
P2 deliberately trades usability for spam resistance
Implicationpartial
Strongly implied in the analysis of design principles, stating P2 'deliberately trades usability for spam resistance'.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
censorship resistance is not a single mechanism but emerges from the combination
Implicationpartial
Directly stated in the quality attributes analysis, though the specific mechanisms are listed separately.
Verificationpartial
partial
Evidencepartial
Key loss under P1 implies total identity loss; social-recovery schemes and multi-signature key management can mitigate this risk while preserving sovereignty.
Implicationpartial
Directly stated as a consequence of the design principle, with mitigation strategies mentioned.
Verificationpartial
