Capacity Token Protocol

CTP represents one unit of throughput for a specific asset within a defined time window.

Any idle asset with measurable capacity can be converted into a tradeable on‑chain instrument via CTP. The protocol standardizes issuance, verification, trading, and settlement of capacity tokens. Each token is tied to a verifiable asset and delivery interval, enabling transparent forward markets.

Token Lifecycle

Issuance → Verification → Trading → Settlement → Expiration

★ Issuance — operators mint capacity tokens aligned to asset availability.

★ Verification — Chainlink oracles confirm utilization and delivery.

★ Trading — DEX markets for spot and forward capacity windows.

★ Settlement — finalization of delivery and usage claims.

★ Expiration — unused tokens expire post‑window under defined rules.

Asset Verification

Verification integrates operators’ telemetry with oracle networks. Signed attestations and on‑chain proofs ensure capacity units correspond to real‑world delivery and prevent double‑counting.

Oracle Integration

Chainlink provides decentralized data verification, delivering utilization metrics and event confirmations that bind tokens to delivery across assets and time windows.

Smart Contracts

Contracts implement minting permissions, settlement logic, marketplace interactions, and role‑based access controls with least‑privilege design and comprehensive event logging.

Settlement Process

Rules bind tokens to consumption windows and reconcile operator attestations with market positions, ensuring clarity for all participants and auditable outcomes.
