Economics of Contributor Value

How Value Flows

  • Access Fees & Royalties — Organizations and models pay to use contributor‑backed artifacts. Fees route to the NFT holders.
  • Dynamic Weighting — Payouts scale with measured utility (e.g., model lift, reduction in false positives, time‑to‑detect) to reward high‑impact insights.
  • Marketplace Liquidity — Contributors may list NFTs for licensing; governance can define minimums and revocation policies for misuse.
  • Wallet Growth — Earnings accrue to the contributor’s wallet in Sophía, aligning incentives between model quality and human expertise.

Governance & Fairness

  • Transparent smart‑contract rules for splits and co‑authorship.
  • Dispute resolution via evidence trails and version lineage.
  • Community review for high‑impact artifacts before wide activation.
