Drayker has internal material on the economic ecosystem, and what is public is the reasoning on the Economy page rather than a specification. It overlaps a gap the DAF has too: the federative point mechanics are unspecified as well, and whether these are one problem or two has not been settled. Settling it is itself worth doing. +The repository publishes the current architectural formulation of Dktron and its relation to the economy of capacity. Value, reputation and DAF federative points are distinct concepts. No Dktron is issued, priced, sold or exchangeable; no stability mechanism or bridge has been demonstrated. There is no operating monetary policy, liquidity, income programme or automatic resource allocation. -The internal material describes a possible economy. It demonstrates no implementation, no monetary policy, no liquidity, no audit, no financial governance and no capacity to sustain anyone's income. It is worth being exact about the order of work here: **the first validation is an accounting one, not a monetary one.** What comes first is a transparent record of contributions, needs, decisions and accountability. Not a unit that moves. And Dk optimizes none of it until the human rules have been written down by people. +Stable value is an architectural requirement — it is intended to make resource accounting and external exchange coherent, and its mechanism still requires specification and evidence.
