Creator watermarks that survive remix — and how Healer upgrades the base

Every Remote Viewer stamp is metadata, not a croppable overlay. Open-source scans write upgrades into the node. Polls and works stay theirs.

A Remote Viewer who makes a poll, a mint, or a clip owns that work. The Network stamps a watermark — an RV mark derived from their node, not a logo pasted in the corner — into the ledger and, for PNG, into a tEXt chunk. Cropping the picture does not drop the mark. A remix copies the origin mark first, then appends the remixer. Origin is never replaced.

That is how creator revenue is protected. If someone remixes your work and sells it on the native ledger, twenty percent of net TRV after the platform fee still returns to origin. The remixer cannot cut you out by flattening the overlay. The hash in the database is the referee.

This is not the compelled-speech watermark some states asked platforms to burn into every sentence. That doctrine is refused. This mark is provenance: who made it, who remixed it, who still gets paid.

Polls work the same way. Any Viewer can publish a question with two to eight options, share it on their public card, and remix another Viewer's poll. The remix is theirs. The original watermark stays. Votes are one per node.

Healer, the domain super of recovery, now scans the open materials the OS is built on — React, TanStack, Better Auth, PGLite, SPDX licenses, RFC 9110, WebCrypto, Global Privacy Control. When a version moves, Healer writes it into this node's base and Sentinel health rises. Daily watch still heals. Open upgrades heal too. The live npm tree upgrades on deploy; the node's heal ledger is what Viewers see between deploys.

Outside Viewers on the two-day Verified trial can vote, mint, and run a heal scan. The trial does not skip the handshake. It does not skip the mark. If you remix someone during those forty-eight hours, their origin still holds.
