PRD: Core Architectural Principles

  • Decentralized P2P Network: BitTorrent-based for resilience and scalability. Media files (.mp4, .mp3, etc.) are stored off-chain by seeders.
  • Two-Layer Economic Model:
    • Layer 1 - Infrastructure Compensation: Direct micropayments to seeders for bandwidth/storage. Independent of content ownership.
    • Layer 2 - Content Monetization: Tokenized representation of content rights (Master NFTs, Revenue Share FTs, Access NFTs) allowing creators/platforms to define economics and revenue flow.
  • No BitCDN Consumer Client: Focus on providing backend infrastructure, node software, and SDKs/APIs for integration into third-party content platforms and applications.
  • Wallet Agnostic: End-users interact via their preferred web3 wallets integrated with content platforms.
  • Modular & Extensible: Designed for integration and future protocol enhancements, including leveraging existing standards for DRM and content verification.
