Transparency

Every public commitment, monitor, and policy document the Sophis core team operates by, listed in one place. Each item links to its canonical source — markdown in the reference repository, frozen at every signed release.

Founder mining address

The founder mines to one declared SPHS address, never changed, subject to the 5% lifetime cap. The address is fixed at genesis and re-published in the T-72h mainnet launch announcement alongside binary hashes.

5% lifetime cap monitor

The founder will not mine more than 5% of the cumulative SPHS emission, measured as a rolling lifetime average. The auto-pause script halts mining at 4.9% of supply.

The compliance script cap_5pct_monitor.py is committed to the reference repository under scripts/. It reads chain state from a local node, computes cumulative founder balance and cumulative chain emission, and publishes the ratio at a fixed cadence.

Canonical policy documents

Community-curated metadata

Three community-curated repositories sit alongside the reference implementation, all under permissive licenses, all independently maintainable. The core team is not a maintainer of any of them.

community-labels

Opt-in verification metadata for addresses (e.g., known NGOs, exchanges, public projects).
