Thank you, @bill_w3f.

I’ve shared an invitation to critically evaluate a new Coretime pricing model, proposing an original economic framework based on Pareto-optimal convex interactions. The goal is to explore a principled, decentralized alternative to current pricing mechanisms—open to critical review and discussion.
