🔍Third-Party Verification

As SHOPX does not have physical infrastructure, we will need to enlist third-party services to manufacture the chips, verify the physical items, and connect the chips to them.

These third parties will behave like worldwide physical verification nodes and be incentivized and regulated with the $SHOPX license token. The nodes will be given $SHOPX to stake with a vesting period of staggered unlocks. Any node that experiences high numbers of authentication failures due to NFC chip tampering will lose its stake.
