Sphiverse Participation Charter

Purpose. This Charter defines invite-only participation criteria for Sphiverse, the public-facing interface of the CA-System, and clarifies how regulated activities—if any—are conducted solely by appropriately licensed third parties.

1. Participation Principles

Curated access. Participation is by invitation to preserve system integrity, accountability, and lawful operation across jurisdictions.
Local authority, not centralized control. Operators deploy and govern their own instances under their own jurisdiction and policies, within shared interoperability semantics.
Framework provider posture. Sphiverse, Sphenome Research Institute, Moolex, and affiliated platforms provide research, execution frameworks, interoperability tooling, and governance surfaces, and do not themselves act as regulated service providers.

2. Eligibility Classes

Participants. Individuals or organizations engaging in research, projects, deployments, or interoperability testing.
Operators. Government agencies, regulated private entities, or hybrid consortia that operate a deployment instance and manage onboarding, SLAs, and audit requirements.
Licensed Providers (where required). Entities holding relevant licenses (e.g., banking, securities, brokerage/exchange, insurance/reinsurance, payments, foreign exchange) who independently provide regulated services under applicable law.
Integrators. Certified system integrators implementing interfaces, compliance controls, or deployments for Operators and Participants.

3. HOOTL Telemetry & Admissibility (Minimum Requirement for Ecosystem Eligibility)

For deployments that seek ecosystem eligibility, participants must support machine-asserted constraint declarations that are generated independently of human discretion (HOOTL at the invariant boundary). These declarations are time-bounded, auditable, and used to evaluate admissibility, continuation, termination, and re-entry.

Human oversight remains HOTL for governance and adjudication, but cannot override an inadmissible state asserted at the invariant boundary.

4. Regulated Activity Boundary

Sphiverse and its affiliated platforms do not provide banking, securities issuance or trading, brokerage, exchange operation, investment advisory, insurance or reinsurance, foreign exchange, payment services, or monetary policy functions. Any regulated activities referenced in connection with Sphiverse are performed exclusively by independent, duly licensed third-party operators under applicable law, and may be restricted by jurisdiction.

5. Invitation Criteria (Non-Exhaustive)

Role clarity. Declared role (Participant, Operator, Licensed Provider, Integrator) and scope of intended participation.
Compliance readiness. Ability to meet jurisdictional requirements relevant to the scope (licenses, policies, disclosures, consumer protection where applicable).
Operational integrity. Ability to maintain audit logs, time semantics, and conformance testing for interoperability.
Security posture. Basic controls appropriate for the deployment environment and data sensitivity.
Non-misrepresentation. Agreement not to market participation as a regulated approval, guarantee, or endorsement by Sphiverse or its affiliates.

6. Fees & Commercial Terms

Operators may set participant fees for access, coordination services, or ecosystem eligibility tiers within their jurisdiction and policies. Any fees for regulated services are set by the relevant licensed providers under their own authority. Nothing in this Charter is an offer, solicitation, or promise of financial return.

7. Suspension / Removal

Invitations may be suspended or revoked for material misrepresentation, non-compliance, security breaches, unlawful activity, or failure to maintain minimum ecosystem eligibility requirements.

This Charter is informational and may be updated. It does not constitute legal, financial, or regulatory advice.
