Stake makes operator reputation economically meaningful. B3IQ uses Base as the near-term chain for B3 stake and node/model registry state.

Node Registration

A protocol-ready node needs:

Node protocol gates
Registered node ID

The node ID is registered in the Base registry and bound to an owner.

Active status

Registry state marks the node active.

Stake satisfied

The node satisfies the current minimum B3 stake policy.

Route and runtime evidence

Registry readiness is necessary but not enough; route, runtime, model, and benchmark gates still need to pass.

Deployed Registry

Current Base registry

B3IQ registry tooling exists for Base mainnet node registration and staking visibility. Public docs and explorer views should keep chain context explicit.

Model Hosting

B3IQ separates model publisher commitments from node hosting capability:

  • Model publisher commitments can include artifact hash, metadata URI, publisher stake, status, and model-level slashing boundaries.
  • Node model-hosting capability can include node/model/runtime/benchmark/route commitments.
  • Raw inventory, endpoints, filesystem paths, prompts, and outputs stay out of public commitments.

Capability Commitments

The target b3iq-capability-v1 commitment is public-safe. It can hash:

  • Node ID.
  • Model class.
  • Runtime class or runtime hash.
  • Benchmark hash.
  • Route class.
  • Privacy class.
  • Metadata URI.

It must not include raw local endpoints, runtime IDs, paths, private routes, prompts, outputs, or secrets.

Slashing Boundary

Slashing is last resort. Refund, release, withhold, suspension, and reputation paths should handle normal operational failures. Slashable conditions need clear evidence standards, appeals, and public-safe reason strings.
