● TECHNICAL ARCHITECTURE
Packets off-chain.
Coordination on-chain.
Aura is structured around a strict boundary: normal WiFi traffic remains normal internet traffic, while Solana coordinates identity, ownership, epochs, staking, claims, treasury, and governance.
01
PHYSICAL INTERNET
↓Router and WiFi access point
Existing ISP connections, venue networks, access policies, and traffic forwarding remain under normal infrastructure control.
02
AURA GATEWAY
↓Signed service boundary
Registered gateway devices sign health reports, counters, nonces, uptime, latency, and client-count signals.
03
AURA CORE
↓Verification and reward engine
Service data is scored for eligibility, fraud resistance, demand quality, and contribution before settlement.
04
SOLANA
Protocol state
PDAs represent protocol config, operators, networks, reward epochs, staking positions, and claim receipts.
OFF-CHAIN
Connectivity layer
- WiFi packets and browsing traffic
- Captive portal sessions
- Raw gateway telemetry
- Fraud analysis and private host records
ON SOLANA
Economic layer
- Network identity and ownership
- Staking and reward epochs
- Claim receipts and treasury accounting
- Governance-ready protocol controls
