Automatic 80/12/5/3 splits

Revenue is distributed in real time: 80% to you, 12% to the platform, 5% to a referrer, and 3% to a reserve. With no referrer the 5% folds into the reserve. Transparent and on-chain.

TECHNICAL STACK

The Architecture of a Citation

1
HTTP 402 Required

A reader or agent requests a paid block and the server returns a payment-required status with a machine-readable x402 quote.

2
Guardian Check

The Guardian verifies budget, max price-per-block, and verified-creator preference before any funds move.

3
Circle Gateway

A gas-free USDC authorization is signed; the nanopayment is batched through the Circle Gateway.

4
Settle on Arc

The transaction settles on Arc as USDC in under half a second. A receipt proves payment and unlocks the block.

5
