Protocol Guarantees

Slice is designed to provide enforceable, predictable outcomes in environments where trust breaks down.

Regardless of the dispute type or implementation phase, Slice guarantees:

1. Neutrality

  • Slice does not interpret evidence.

  • Slice does not influence jurors.

  • Outcomes are determined exclusively by independent human judgment.

2. Incentive Alignment

  • Jurors are economically incentivized to act coherently.

  • Malicious or incoherent behavior is penalized by design.

  • No participant has privileged voting power.

3. Deterministic Execution

  • Once a dispute is resolved, outcomes are enforced automatically.

  • Funds and actions are executed on-chain.

  • No off-chain authority can override results.

4. Liveness

  • Disputes are designed to reach resolution.

  • The protocol prioritizes completion over indefinite stalling.

  • No funds can remain locked indefinitely by design.

5. Transparency and Auditability

  • All dispute rules are defined upfront.

  • Outcomes are verifiable.

  • Execution is deterministic and inspectable.
