Ask HN: Critical review of a spec-first economic protocol

2•AGsist•3w ago
I’m seeking critical technical review of a research-only, spec-first economic protocol where time is treated as a first-class economic primitive.

The protocol (GT 1.0) is not a product, not an investment, and not a startup proposal. Semantics and economic invariants are frozen (v1.0). There is no tokenomics, no blockchain choice, no roadmap, and no implementation commitment.

The goal is to evaluate the internal consistency of the model: invariants, architectural boundaries, and failure paths under stress or partial failure.

Canonical paper (fixed reference): https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18190386

Controlled reference implementation (entry point for reviewers): https://github.com/ArturGrandi/gt1-implementation-reference

Discussion is intentionally centralized in a single GitHub Issue to avoid fragmented feedback. I’m specifically interested in critique from protocol designers, systems engineers, and formal methods reviewers—especially around where the model may break or become underspecified.

I’m not looking for product feedback or future feature suggestions, only rigorous technical criticism.
