Result threshold
Only verified outcomes enter the PoB record. Activity without a provable result stays outside.
Proof of Business (PoB)
Only verified outcomes become value.
PoB is WCN's verification layer. It recognizes business outcomes that can be proved, attributed, and audited — so settlement always reflects what actually happened.
PoB turns real, verifiable results into records the system can admit, track, and use as input for settlement. If it cannot be evidenced, it does not count.
What PoB enforces
Attribution
PoB tracks who led, who collaborated, and what made the result hold — not a flat participation score.
Settlement input
Recorded PoB becomes the structured input for allocation, fees, and governance.
Network memory
Validated outcomes persist as durable records — not disappearing chat logs or campaign dashboards.
Boundaries
Rewarded vs. rejected
PoB rewards completed outcomes. If it cannot be evidenced and reviewed, it does not enter the record.
What is rewarded
- Fundraising outcomes (signed, subscribed, transferred)
- Market outcomes (measurable conversion and retention)
- Service delivery (onboarded, delivered, accepted)
- Liquidity provision (depth, spread, stability)
- Asset lifecycle (design, issuance, distribution)
- Agent execution (logged work with attributable results)
What is not rewarded
- Posts, hype, and activity without outcomes
- Claims without evidence
- Bot traffic, wash trading, and circular attribution
- Side deals that bypass system attribution
Verification
From claim to confirmed record
Five steps take an outcome from raw claim to system-confirmed record: submission, evidence, review, conclusion, and archive.
- 01
Outcome registration
Register the completed deal or task with clear context and a definition of done.
- 02
Evidence upload
Attach structured proof: contracts, on-chain references, dashboards, or acceptance records.
- 03
Review
Reviewers check authenticity, completeness, timeline, and attribution.
- 04
Conclusion
Approve, request more evidence, reject, or route to disputes.
- 05
Archive
Accepted records enter the PoB ledger as durable inputs for reputation and settlement.
Proof Desk
The verification control center
Proof Desk is where evidence is collected, reviews are queued, disputes are resolved, and final decisions are issued before anything becomes a PoB record.
- Intake
Evidence packages tied to specific deals and tasks
- Review
Authenticity checks, clarifications, and policy compliance
- Disputes
A clear path to contest outcomes or attribution
- Conclusions
Approve, request more info, or reject — every decision is explicit
Scoring
How PoB is calculated
In plain terms: PoB score = how big was the outcome, how important was it, how strong is the evidence, how well did it hold up, minus any risk flags. The formula below makes this precise.
Formula
Effective PoB=Base Value×Business Weight×Quality×Durability×Risk Discount
- 01
Base Value
How large is the verified outcome.
- 02
Business Weight
How strategically important this type of outcome is.
- 03
Quality
Evidence depth, confirmation count, and audit readiness.
- 04
Durability
How well the outcome holds up over time.
- 05
Risk Discount
Disputes, anomalies, and flags reduce the score.
Phase 1 focuses on evidence quality and ledger integrity. Token settlement, if approved at all, is deferred to Phase 3 (M24+) and remains compliance-gated.
Attribution matters
Without attribution, PoB only proves a result exists. With it, the network sees who advanced the outcome — essential for fair credit and future allocation.
Not a substitute for law
PoB is an operational layer inside WCN. It does not replace securities, tax, or licensing obligations — teams still need proper counsel.
