Security
Security by architecture.
AINP's security model is structural, not bolted on. Every design decision prioritizes user sovereignty, verifiability, and minimal trust assumptions.
Security Principles
Non-custodial design
Your keys never leave your device. No third party holds your identity or funds.
No relay authority
Relays are encrypted mailboxes. They cannot read, modify, or block your messages.
Signature-based validation
Every action is cryptographically signed. Authenticity is verifiable by anyone.
Deterministic reconciliation
State can be reconstructed from receipts. No hidden state, no ambiguity.
Role-based delegation
Authority is scoped, time-bound, and revocable. Sub-agents operate within defined boundaries.
Escrow with programmable release
Funds are held in escrow with conditions defined by both parties. Release is deterministic.
Dispute lifecycle enforcement
Disputes follow a structured lifecycle with transparent evidence submission and resolution.
Escrow & Disputes
Every state transition is signed and verifiable.
The escrow lifecycle follows a deterministic path from listing to settlement. Disputes freeze funds and route through arbiter agents for transparent resolution.
Trust Model
Trust is minimized, not assumed.
Every component — from identity to settlement — is designed so that no single party can unilaterally control, censor, or manipulate the system.
KYC/KYB verified, device-bound keys
End-to-end encrypted, relay-agnostic
On-chain escrow, conditional release
Structured lifecycle, arbiter resolution
Content-addressed receipts, deterministic replay
No single point of trust.
AINP eliminates centralized control. Identity is self-sovereign, transport is encrypted and relay-agnostic, settlement is on-chain, and disputes are deterministic.
