CipherLupin Protocol

A Decentralized Autonomous Protocol for Wealth Redistribution

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and automation technologies are creating unprecedented wealth, but their benefits are concentrating in the hands of those who inappropriately control system vulnerabilities and data monopolies. This exacerbates social inequality and threatens the sustainability of our communities. CipherLupin responds to these challenges by proposing a voluntary network of 'Cipher Lupins' protected by anonymity. They form a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) operating on a protocol secured by Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), managing a 'CipherLupin Treasury' that redirects unfairly concentrated wealth for the benefit of society as a whole. This protocol goes beyond individual rights claims to realize social justice through collective action powered by technology. The name Cipher Lupin itself embodies our philosophy.

Introduction - Contemporary Injustice and the Need for Action

We live in a paradoxical era of poverty amidst plenty. AI and robotics create enormous value, but the benefits flow to a minority who monopolize technology and data those who have 'inappropriately accumulated wealth.' Ordinary individuals unwittingly provide data, the key resource sustaining this system, yet remain marginalized without fair compensation, relegated to the shadows of technological advancement.

This concentration of wealth transcends mere economic disparity; it is a systemic issue that undermines social trust and the foundations of democracy. Extreme inequality inhibits innovation, amplifies social conflict, and may ultimately lead to the collapse of our entire community. Conventional approaches cannot reverse this massive trend.

We need new forms of resistance and alternatives. To solve problems created by technology, we must once again leverage technology itself. It is time to organize freely beyond surveillance and control, taking concrete action to change the unjust flow of wealth. CipherLupin is an action protocol of 'Cipher Lupins' responding to this call of our times.

Cipher Lupin - Philosophy and Code of Conduct

The name of the CipherLupin protocol encapsulates our core values and approach.

Cipher: This symbolizes trust based on mathematical proofs, robust security, and most importantly, the protection of individual anonymity. We guarantee freedom of association and action through code, not central authority surveillance and control. All activities are cryptographically protected through advanced Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), allowing 'Cipher Lupins' to act with conviction without external pressure. This is our shield against digital totalitarianism.

Post-Quantum Security Foundation

The CipherLupin protocol is built on cutting-edge cryptographic foundations that are resistant to attacks from quantum computers. Unlike traditional cryptographic systems (RSA, ECC) that will become vulnerable in the quantum era, we implement advanced quantum-resistant algorithms:

  • DILITHIUM: For digital signatures that protect transaction authenticity
  • FALCON: Providing compact signatures with strong security guarantees
  • KYBER: Enabling secure key exchanges and encryption
  • SPHINCS+: Ensuring long-term security through hash-based signatures

This cryptographic infrastructure ensures that our protocol remains secure even in a post-quantum world, where conventional encryption methods will fail.

Lupin: This signifies our inheritance of the spirit of 'Arsène Lupin,' who acted for social justice against absurd power and the greed of 'those who inappropriately possess.' Just as Lupin exploited vulnerabilities in the establishment to redistribute wealth, the CipherLupin network identifies points of unfair wealth concentration in the AI era and utilizes that value for society through DAOs and the Treasury. This is not destruction but a sophisticated, systemic modern 'righteous action' and active intervention to change the flow of wealth.

Ultimately, Cipher Lupin means "a decentralized protocol and movement where anonymous activists armed with cryptography (Cipher) unite to fight against unjust wealth concentration in the AI era (Lupin), and redistribute that wealth to realize social justice." This is our promise of social transformation through technology.

Anonymity - The Foundation for Free Association and Action

In the CipherLupin protocol, anonymity (Anon) is a core principle ensuring the free activity of 'Cipher Lupins.' Individuals can participate in DAOs, contribute to Treasury operations, and safely interact with other participants within the protocol without revealing their identities.

Technical guarantees: We actively utilize cutting-edge privacy technologies such as Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZK-Proofs), PQC-based encrypted signatures, and Mixnets to thoroughly protect participants' identities and activity records. This is a safety mechanism enabling 'Cipher Lupins' to confront injustice without fear of retaliation or disadvantage.

Philosophical significance: Anonymity enables truly autonomous association and action beyond the surveillance network of power. This is a fundamental resistance to centralized control and establishes a foundation where all participants can voice their opinions and participate in actions with equal qualification.

Redefining Digital Resources and Value Flows

CipherLupin seeks to fundamentally redefine the value flow of digital resources supporting the AI era, beyond issues of individual data sovereignty. It challenges structures where core resources constituting the AI ecosystem data, algorithms, computing power are monopolized by a minority, creating unjust profits.

Transparency and readjustment of value flow: The protocol tracks how these digital resources are utilized and create value, identifying portions of profits that are unfairly concentrated in the process.

Role of DAOs: DAOs formed by 'Cipher Lupins' can work toward resolving issues of unfair value monopolization in specific industries or technological domains. For example, DAOs distributing rewards to communities that provided training data for specific AI models, or DAOs supporting open-source AI development to counter monopolistic AI platforms.
