I’ve published a new protocol specification that proposes a deterministic, machine-verifiable trust model for decentralized governance. Instead of relying on probabilistic or socially ambiguous trust, TGC v2 defines trust, delegation, and legitimacy as explicit cryptographic structures and state-machine transitions. It combines deterministic voting, delegation graphs, multisig thresholds, and an immutable ledger to create a transparent, composable governance layer that both humans and AI agents can verify.

Core ideas:

Trust = explicit structured object, not sentiment

Delegation = formal graph, fully machine-readable

Governance = deterministic rules, reproducible by any node

Voting = threshold/graph-based, no ambiguity

Immutable ledger captures all transitions (trust, delegation, votes)

Designed to be compatible with on-chain systems & DAOs
