SOVR EmpireTechnical Brief

Comprehensive technical overview of SOVR's trust-verified presentment system, smart contract architecture, and settlement infrastructure.

System Architecture

Identity Layer

QR-based identity binding with revocation and replay protection

Trust Validation

Smart contract enforcement of trust rules and spend limits

Settlement Rails

Cross-platform settlement via on-chain and traditional rails

SOVR Empire implements a three-layer architecture for trust-verified presentment:

  • Presentation Layer: QR-based identity binding and session management
  • Validation Layer: Smart contract enforcement of trust rules and compliance checks
  • Settlement Layer: Multi-rail execution across blockchain and traditional payment systems

Basic Implementation
import { SovrEmpire } from '@sovr/empire-sdk';

const empire = new SovrEmpire({
  network: 'polygon',
  apiKey: process.env.SOVR_API_KEY
});

// Process a trust-verified payment
const result = await empire.processPayment({
  merchant: '0x...',
  amount: '100.00',
  currency: 'SOVRCRV1',
  trustRules: {
    maxAmount: '1000.00',
    purpose: 'merchant_payment'
  }
});
