2.1 KiB
Six Principles
The Six Principles are the immutable covenant of OpenYield (REQ-001). They are Mission-locked: no Council can amend them, and the fee covenant is locked alongside them. The mesh exists to hold real production, not speculation; everything else follows from that.
1. Real value
The mesh holds real production. The Bread unit is the unit of real value held in the Storage Pools; the bond market caps coupons so the mesh cannot become a speculation engine. "Real return" is the metric, not a nominal rate.
2. Sustainability
Fees are floored and capped. The fee covenant fixes a ceiling and a floor (see the Fee Covenant module), and the 1-Grain internal minimum prevents dust games. The protocol cannot drain its users, and it cannot starve its Watchers.
3. Mission-lock
The Six Principles and the fee covenant are immutable. No Council — Mesh,
Guild, or Stand — can amend them. Mission Lock is a const in the council
module, and an invariant test asserts it can never be set to amendable. The
coupon cap on bonds is a mission-locked ceiling, not a parameter a Council
can tune.
4. Openness
Anyone may join. The mesh is a public good. A Holder needs only a Reach (an identity) and a Stash (a storage pool) to begin; there is no gatekeeper and no custodian.
5. Ownership
Holders own their Stash and their Reach. Custody is theirs: the Stash is the Holder-level storage pool, the Vault is the Stand-level pool, and the Root-Pool is the treasury. The protocol does not custody user value; it holds the canonical state that records who owns what.
6. Self-service
A Holder can act without a custodian. The Window primitive lets a Holder delegate a scope-bounded, time-limited, revocable capability to a partner or a service; the bearers (OY-LR, OY-BLE, OY-WiFi-Direct, OY-SAT, OY-QR) let a Holder reach the mesh without a phone plan or a custodial on-ramp. The mesh is jurisdiction-light by design.
See the Vision for the covenant in brief, or the Lexicon for why the docs say "real production" and "Holder" rather than the words a legacy financial institution would use.
