Lioth Unified Whitepaper

This page is now treated as an archival unified snapshot placeholder, not the source of truth for current semantics.

The maintained source of truth is split across:

• the chaptered whitepaper in this repository for protocol invariants, trust boundaries, and intended architecture;
• App Status for current live bootstrap/testnet behavior; and
• Protocol Defaults for the current defaults alongside the broader parameter envelope.

The chaptered whitepaper sections are:

• Technical Abstract
• Key Terms
• Architecture
• The Protocol Properties
• The Protocol Layers
• Identity Layer: Uniqueness, Reputation & Economic Incentives
• Protocol Security and Anti-Fraud Mechanisms
• Economic Flows
• Definitions and Glossary

If a future unified export is needed, it should be regenerated from the maintained chaptered sections rather than treated as an independent normative document.
