The modules
Every module in chain/x/, what it does and whether it is live. "Live" means wired into oramad and exercised by tests on a test network. It does not mean the chain is public.
| Module | What it does | State |
|---|---|---|
emission | Mints new ORAMA once per epoch on a fixed halving schedule. The only module that can mint norama. | Live. See Supply |
power | Decides the voting power CometBFT uses, runs the bootstrap committee and the hand-over, pays validator rewards. | Live. See Validators |
fees | EIP-1559-style base fee that is burned, tips to the proposer, earnings accounts, state deposits. | Live. See Fees |
nodes | Registry of operators, nodes, roles, bonds and optional public cluster rows. | Live. See Nodes |
storage | Storage deals, provider slots, challenges, proofs, settlement, subsidy. | Live. See Storage deals |
archive | Registry of archived block ranges so validators can prune history. | Live. See History archive |
relay | Registry of Tor relays and exits and the per-epoch report that decides rewards. | Registration, reports and settlement live: the end block pays each operator's epoch total through the 90/5/5 service split. No relay is running yet. See Relay rewards |
houses | Two-house governance. | Live, gated closed at genesis. See Governance |
token | Token factory: factory/<creator>/<subdenom> denoms with optional mint, freeze, pause, transfer-fee and transfer-hook (a contract) capabilities. | Live. See Token factory |
cnft | Compressed NFTs in concurrent Merkle trees. | Live. See NFTs and market |
market | Fixed-price listings and bids for cNFTs with creator royalties. | Live. Same page |
shielded | The Ironwood shielded pool. | Implemented. Accepts bundles only on nodes with both verifiers. See Shielded |
wasm | CosmWasm contracts. | Live in cgo builds only. See Contracts |
wasmpolicy | Rules around contracts: upload closed until a sunset height, state deposits. | Always wired |
wasmbindings | The Orama calls a contract may make (tokens, NFTs, market, storage deals, earnings). | Linked in cgo builds |
inclusion | Inclusion lists through vote extensions so a proposer cannot censor a transaction. | Wired, off until genesis sets a start height |
confidential | Attestation boundary for confidential compute. | Fails closed on every input. Not wired |
vpnlaunch | A predicate that says when a public VPN beta could open. | No chain state, not linked into oramad. Its launch switch is off in every build |
How the modules connect
- +
emissionis the only way newnoramaenters existence. Every other module asks it. - +Earnings accounts live in
fees. Every payout from another module lands there. - +
nodesholds the bonds thatstorageslashes. - +
housescan reach only the things its enactment table lists. It cannot touch the halving schedule, the burn rule, or anything that would freeze or blacklist an account.
Standard Cosmos modules and what changed
- +
stakingstill owns bonds, delegations, unbonding and jailing. Its own validator-set updates are discarded;poweris the only module that tells CometBFT who validates. - +
slashingapplies to every CometBFT validator including the bootstrap committee. - +
distributionis wired for plumbing only. The community tax is zero and Orama pays rewards throughpower. - +
upgrade,consensus,bankandstakingparameter messages use the unreachable authority described in What the chain is. - +
feegrantis honoured by the fee decorator: a granter can pay a base fee from its bank balance (never from earnings).
