Emissions, Treasury, and Sink

Example Allocation (illustrative)

• 48% Validator & Contributor rewards (emits over 6–8 years, halving per 24 months)

• 20% Treasury (grants, bounties, integrations)

• 17% Core development (time-locked, 3–4 yr vest)

• 10% Strategic partners & market making (vesting, performance-linked)

• 5% Community airdrops (validators, early testers)

Epoch Rewards

• Fixed base W0 with exponential decay: W_e = W0 · (½)^(e / H) where H = epochs per halving.

• Treasury top-ups can temporarily boost W during bootstrapping of new regions.

Sinks (Token Utility)

• Priority anchoring fees for burst lanes (paid in $LATT; a portion burned).

• Challenge bonds for dispute resolution (slashed or returned).

• Gov proposal deposit (anti-spam, partially burned).

Governance

• Proposal Lifecycle: Draft → Forum discussion → Snapshot off-chain temp check → On-chain vote.

• Voting Power: staked $LATT + reputation multiplier (0.8–1.2) based on historical accuracy/participation.

• Quorum/Thresholds: e.g., 10% of active voting power; 50–60% yes to pass.

• Upgradable Parameters: reward exponents (α, β), minimum stake, slash rates, proof schema versions, committee size.

Reputation note: A bounded multiplier avoids plutocracy while rewarding good actors.

On-chain Structures & Code (BNB/Anchor)

Below are illustrative snippets showing how a staking/attestation program could look using Anchor (Rust). These are not production code—just to clarify interfaces.

Program Accounts (simplified)

// Anchor pseudo-code (abridged)
#[account]
pub struct Validator {
    pub owner: Pubkey,
    pub stake: u64,           // in LATT atoms
    pub quality: u32,         // Q_i scaled 0..10000
    pub last_epoch: u64,
    pub slashed: u64,
}

#[account]
pub struct Epoch {
    pub id: u64,
    pub reward_pool: u64,     // W for this epoch
    pub total_power: u128,    // Σ(S^α · Q^β) scaled
    pub params: Params,
}

#[account]
pub struct ProofBatch {
    pub merkle_root: [u8;32],
    pub count: u32,
    pub ts: i64,
    pub finalized: bool,
}

Stake & Unstake

pub fn stake(ctx: Context<Stake>, amount: u64) -> Result<()> {
    // transfer LATT from user to vault (SPL token)
    // increase validator.stake and epoch.total_power
    Ok(())
}

pub fn unstake(ctx: Context<Unstake>, amount: u64) -> Result<()> {
    // enforce unbonding period (e.g., 14 days)
    Ok(())
}

Attest & Finalize

pub fn attest(ctx: Context<Attest>, batch: Pubkey, sig: [u8;64]) -> Result<()> {
    // verify validator is active, record signature for batch
    // update quality subscores (timeliness, availability)
    Ok(())
}

pub fn finalize_batch(ctx: Context<Finalize>, batch: Pubkey) -> Result<()> {
    // check quorum t-of-n; mark ProofBatch.finalized = true
    // emit event with tx + slot for dashboards
    Ok(())
}

Distribute Rewards

pub fn settle_epoch(ctx: Context<SettleEpoch>) -> Result<()> {
    // compute R_i for each validator using (S^α · Q^β) shares
    // mint W tokens from emissions or pay from reward vault
    Ok(())
}

Client Examples (TypeScript)

Submit an Event Proof (off-chain → on-chain anchor)

import { Connection, PublicKey, Transaction } from "@BNB/web3.js";
import { keccak_256 } from "js-sha3";

const event = {
  class: "exfil.suspected",
  ts: new Date().toISOString(),
  confidence: 0.89,
  detector: "sl-ai-v1.3.2",
};

const hashHex = keccak_256(JSON.stringify(event));
console.log("event_hash:", hashHex);

// (1) send `event` to Lattice AI Engine API for attestation
// (2) engine prepares Merkle batch and sends to program for anchoring
// (3) your dashboard later links to the resulting tx/slot

Verify a Proof Exists (read-side)

// pseudo: call our read API or on-chain indexer
const res = await fetch(`/v1/proofs/${hashHex}`);
/*
{
  anchor: { chain:"BNB", tx:"5pW...", slot: 234567 },
  class: "exfil.suspected",
  ai_confidence: 0.89,
  timestamp: "2025-03-21T11:24:33Z",
  merkle_path: [...]
}
*/
// client verifies Merkle inclusion or queries BNB explorer by tx

Example Economic Scenarios

A) Small validator (S = 50k LATT, Q = 0.95) Earns smaller but steady rewards; focuses on latency and uptime to lift Q.

B) Enterprise partner stakes to secure priority anchoring for month-end surges (compliance runs). A portion of priority fees is burned, offsetting emissions.

C) Community challenge: A watcher submits evidence that Validator X equivocated on Batch #812. The challenge bond is posted; smart contract checks signatures; X is slashed 3%, challenger rewarded from slash + bounty pool.

Security & Risk Controls

• Unbonding delay to discourage hit-and-run validation.

• Rate limits / anti-spam for proof submissions; DOS-resistant batching.

• Key rotation for validators; HSM support recommended.

• Diversity goals (cloud/geo/client versions) enforced by governance.

• Parameter circuit-breakers (pause upgrades or categories via emergency DAO vote).

---

Disclosures & Implementation Notes

• All numbers in this section (allocations, halving windows, exponents) are illustrative and can be tuned via governance before mainnet.

• Legal, tax, and regulatory treatment of tokens varies by jurisdiction; participation should follow local rules.

• Security reviews (internal + external) and audits precede any production deployment of staking/attestation programs.
