Patent Ownership Mechanics: Upekrithen → LB Ironclad

A proposal for genuine fractional patent ownership through Upekrithen, converting to irrevocable LB licensing.

Keep It Super Simple 3-Tier Explanation

Quick Tier

5K sponsors buy fractional patent ownership from Upekrithen → That ownership gets donated irrevocably to LB → Sponsors get Joules equivalent to their ownership share.

The Proposal

Current Structure

Proposed Mechanic

1. Upekrithen sells up to 20% of each patent to 5K sponsors
2. Price = Conversion Cost + Implementation Cost + 20%
3. Ownership is REAL — sponsor owns a fractional piece of the patent
4. Sponsor then DONATES their share irrevocably to Liana Banyan’s perpetual licensing pool
5. In exchange, sponsor receives Joules at the locked rate equivalent to their ownership value

Why This Works

• You CAN sell what you own — Upekrithen legitimately owns the patents
• It’s NOT securities — It’s patent ownership, which is property
• Irrevocable donation — Once in LB, it can never be pulled back
• Joules compensation — Real platform value for real contribution

The Math

Patent Conversion Costs (Estimated)

20% Ownership Calculation

For a patent with 30,000 dollars conversion cost:

Fractional Shares for 5K Sponsors

At 5,000 dollars contribution:

• Sponsor purchases: 5,000 / 9,600 = 52% of the 20% pool (= 10.4% of total patent)
• If multiple sponsors: shares are fractional within the 20%

The 6 Production Levels Integration

Scarcity Mechanic

Like other production progress bars:

Application to Patent Purchase

Result: Early sponsors get better Joule rates (scarcity premium), later sponsors still participate but at declining rates.

The 80% Donation Analysis

Question: If I donate 80% to LB, is that too much?

Scenario A: Founder Donates 80% to LB

Pros:

• LB has ironclad protection
• Sponsors have genuine ownership claim
• Platform is fully self-sustaining

Cons:

• Founder gives up all control
• If LB fails, patents go with it
• No fallback position

Scenario B: Founder Retains 20%, Donates 60%, Sponsors Buy 20%

Pros:

• LB still has 80% (ironclad)
• Founder retains some control
• Fallback if needed
• Can donate remaining 20% later

Cons:

• Sponsors might question “why do you keep 20%?”
• Complexity in explanation

Scenario C: Founder Retains 10%, Donates 70%, Sponsors Buy 20%

Pros:

• LB has 90% (very strong)
• Founder keeps tiny reserve
• Sponsors have real share

Cons:

• 10% might seem arbitrary

Recommendation

Scenario B (60/20/20) is optimal:

• LB gets 80% protection
• Sponsors buy real 20%
• Founder keeps 20% “in case of emergency”
• Later, Founder can donate remaining 20% → LB gets 100%

How This Changes the 5K Pitch

Old Pitch

“You get a perpetual license to use the patents.”

New Pitch

“You buy actual fractional ownership of the patent of your choice. Then you donate that ownership irrevocably to Liana Banyan — which locks it into the platform forever. In exchange, you receive Joules at the locked rate equivalent to your ownership value. You’re not just using the IP — you’re building the fortress.”

The “Joule Pouch” Term

The Analogy

Proposed term: “Joule Pouch” — the container for deferred Joule conversions.

Alternatively:

• Shaped Joules (formed vs flat)
• Banked Joules (stored)
• Wrapped Joules (contained)
• Held Joules (reserved)

Recommendation: “Joule Pouch” captures the cloth/bag analogy best.

The Bootstrap Problem

Question: How does the platform pay Credits when it hasn’t collected any yet?

The Answer: Seed Capital + Medallion Purchases

Where Does Money Actually Go?

How LB Pays for Things

The Key Insight

Credits are BACKED by real money in the Treasury.

When you buy 100 Credits:

1. 100 dollars enters Treasury
2. 100 Credits are issued to you
3. You spend 80 Credits on a product
4. Node operator receives 80 Credits
5. Node operator can redeem 80 Credits from Treasury for 80 dollars (minus platform fees)

The system is solvent because every Credit issued is backed by a dollar that entered.

The Book of Peace (Cephas Navigation)

Concept

Cephas becomes “The Book of Peace” — because when the root causes of conflict (poverty, ignorance, lack of opportunity) are solved, peace flows naturally.
