Advanced feature specs

These are hard, research-grade extensions on top of the base compliance hook. Each doc includes: what it does, why it's genuinely hard, and (where feasible in this sandbox, which has no Rust/Soroban toolchain and no internet access) a small runnable proof-of-concept demonstrating the underlying primitive with plain Node.js.

Honesty note: none of these techniques were invented here β€” they build on real, cited research and existing systems (Nova folding schemes, threshold cryptography, timelock encryption, cryptographic accumulators, partially/fully homomorphic encryption, formal verification, and Stellar's own native primitives and SEPs). The genuine differentiation is combining several of them into one Stellar/Soroban compliance product. That is a real, defensible edge; it is not a claim that the underlying techniques themselves are unprecedented.

General cryptographic extensions (1–6)

# Feature Status
1 Recursive proof folding Spec + conceptual illustration
2 Threshold sanctions oracle Spec + working Shamir secret sharing demo
3 Time-locked regulator disclosure Spec + working threshold-gated demo
4 Real-time credential revocation Spec + working Merkle revocation registry demo
5 FHE-encrypted spending limits Spec + working toy Paillier homomorphic demo
6 Formally verified contract Spec + Kani proof harness (requires local cargo kani)

Stellar-native extensions (7–11)

These build directly on Stellar's own primitives and published roadmap, rather than generic cryptography adapted to Stellar. Ranked here by who they actually benefit:

# Feature Who it helps most Status
11 Anchor-network KYC bridging Ordinary people β€” removes repeat KYC friction for real, often underbanked users Spec + working demo
8 Claimable balance escrow Ordinary people β€” turns failed cross-border payments into a recoverable state Spec + working demo
10 Post-quantum readiness Long-term security for everyone, but preventive/abstract today Spec only, no demo
7 SEP-8 regulated assets Mostly issuers/wallets (interoperability) Spec + working demo
9 Clawback-triggered revocation Institutions; double-edged for individuals β€” needs the safeguards described in the doc Spec + working demo
