Not a bridge honeypot
Corridors are Digital Treaties, not open bridges. The destination pins source identity and arrival policy. Dual-signed releases. Replay protection. In-consensus re-check on credit.
What travels
KYC and KYB travel with the transfer. Both buyer and seller can reject. Relayers carry headers. Proof of the source's finality is verified rather than trusted.
Sovereignty preserved
Neither cell surrenders its rulebook. Incoming value is re-examined against the destination's own arrival policy before it is credited.
In practice
- Cell-native tokens, not a single global coin
- Negotiated rate, FX-style
- Model Digital Treaty is the published template
- Live pattern: Nubara and Tirmore
Questions people actually ask
Is this correspondent banking?
No. Two cells settle directly over a governed corridor. The mathematics is the trusted party, not a correspondent chain.
Who sets the rate?
The parties. The protocol records the exchange and the proof. It does not set monetary policy.
