1. What is Clarity Sanity / PoS²

Clarity Sanity replaces speculative hold-and-dump airdrops and passive staking with active, meritocratic verification. Operators earn by keeping the ledger sane — re-executing blocks and proving state roots — not by locking capital.

Model: Proof-of-Sanity (PoS²) — reward maintenance, not ownership.

Chain: clrty-1 · Program: clarity-sanity

There is no claim button. Activation is earner-based: sync and verify. Idle capital scores near zero; continuous sane verification accrues BRS, unlocks tiers/levels, competes in ZETA, and receives RELAY payouts from the fee bucket.

End-to-end mental model

  1. A Sentinel re-executes a committed block and recomputes SHA3-256(block_bytes).
  2. Compare to the canonical state root → Sane / Irrational / Pending.
  3. After 5 sane epochs (SANE_STATE_THRESHOLD), the program is activated for that operator.
  4. Inputs feed BRS (bounded 0.0..=1.0), which gates tiers and Sanity Levels 0–5.
  5. ZETA scores competitions and splits a conserved reward pool; RELAY pays contributors from the sanity_pool fee bucket (never mints).
  6. VONZER routes allocation across a honest 100-function catalog (39 Live / 12 R&D / 49 Roadmap).
