STATEMENT OF DISCLOSURE
This document establishes a public technical description of the NodeFlow system as originally disclosed on April 4, 2026, and updated on July 21, 2026.
Equivalent cryptographic algorithms, key formats, encodings, or transport methods that preserve the same identity, bonding, verification, continuity, encryption, and trust boundary model are considered implementations of this system.
