To join, you must obtain an invitation code from an existing validated participant. These codes are typically shared within official community channels with users who demonstrate they have completed 'Training Validations' in the app. After receiving an invite, you must participate in a synchronous 'validation ceremony' at a specific global time. During this event, you solve human-level puzzles to prove you are a unique individual. Once successfully validated, you can begin mining and earning rewards without providing any personal documentation or government ID.

Flips are human-created CAPTCHAs used to distinguish humans from bots. Each Flip consists of two sets of four images: one sequence depicts a logical story, while the other is a randomized, meaningless shuffle. Users must identify the logical sequence. Because solving these puzzles requires human-like common sense and narrative interpretation, they are extremely difficult for AI to crack. The project maintains a standing bounty for any AI that can solve these puzzles with high accuracy, ensuring the network remains secure against automated Sybil attacks.

Synchronous validation is the core anti-Sybil mechanism of the network. By requiring all participants worldwide to solve puzzles at the exact same minute, the protocol ensures that a single person cannot operate multiple accounts simultaneously. This 'one person, one vote' approach maintains network fairness and prevents power concentration. If you miss a validation session, your mining status is suspended. While 'Human' status accounts have some leniency for occasional absences, 'Newbie' accounts may be deleted for missing a session.

Mining is designed to be energy-efficient and highly accessible. Unlike traditional Proof-of-Work blockchains that require expensive GPUs or ASICs, this protocol can run on a standard laptop or even a Raspberry Pi. The primary requirement is keeping your node online to support network security and transaction processing. By running the Desktop Client with its built-in node, users contribute to the decentralized infrastructure and earn block rewards based on their identity status and node uptime without high electricity costs.

Identity Staking uses a unique non-linear formula that provides higher relative yields for smaller, individual stakes, preventing 'whales' from dominating the ecosystem. Rewards are distributed across several categories: Mining Rewards for keeping a node online, Validation Rewards for passing ceremonies, Flip Rewards for creating high-quality puzzles, and Invitation Rewards for onboarding successful new members. This multi-faceted structure incentivizes participants to contribute to network security, content quality, and community growth simultaneously.

The protocol offers high levels of anonymity, as it does not require names, emails, or government identification. Your identity is verified purely through your ability to solve puzzles. Regarding security, account trading is strongly discouraged. Because the original creator retains the private key, they can 'kill' the identity at any time to reclaim the 'frozen' stake. This inherent risk makes buying accounts extremely dangerous for the buyer, reinforcing the principle that each account should represent a unique, living human being.
