Partial Transition: Migration & SBTs

Tythe’s economic design follows a progressive tokenization model, where trust data moves on-chain only when fully validated and stable.

This ensures verifiability without compromising agility.


3.1 Current Phase: Off-Chain Credibility Quantification

  • All TCT computations are off-chain.

  • Only Merkle roots for Trovebook, DISC Scores and Metric Health Factors, and DISC Policies are anchored on-chain.

This minimizes operational cost and maintains flexibility during Tythe’s rapid scaling phase.


3.2 Phase 2: On-Chain Credibility Migration

Once network calibration stabilizes, Credibility Vault TCT (CV-TCT) will migrate on-chain as Soulbound Tokens (SBTs).

Each SBT will represent a verifiable proof of earned trust tied to a TRIS ID.

Purpose

CV-TCT

Soulbound Token (SBT)

Non-transferable

Immutable, verifiable record of earned credibility.

VV-TCT

Off-chain TCT

Transferable

Continues to support dynamic validation and staking activity.

Key Outcomes:

  • On-chain proof of reputation for interoperability.

  • Immutable lineage of trust for external verification.

  • No change to DISC logic — only proof migration.


3.3 Phase 3: Interoperable Trust Graph

In the final phase, external systems such as TDX (Trust Data Exchange) and GIL (Grants, Investments, & Loans) Program will gain permissioned access to on-chain credibility proofs.

This establishes a global, verifiable trust graph, enabling seamless interaction across DeFi, AI, compliance, and governance ecosystems.

Phase
Description
On-Chain Components

Phase 1

Off-chain computation with Merkle anchoring

Root hashes only

Phase 2

Credibility Vault migration to SBTs

CV-TCT

Phase 3

Full interoperability for external proof access

CV-TCT + Governance Records


3.4 Integrity Preservation

The migration process will maintain a zero-inflation guarantee:

  • All migrated CV-TCT units must correspond to verified Trovebook records.

  • No manual minting or external issuance is permitted.

  • SBTs will inherit metadata such as total TCT earned, Metric Health composition, and verification timestamp.


3.5 Future Readiness

This progressive design ensures Tythe remains:

  • Regulatory-aligned (credibility ≠ currency).

  • Technically flexible (hybrid on/off-chain model).

  • Ecosystem-interoperable (proof-verified trust data for external partners).
