# Structural Differentiators

* **Differentiator 1: The User-Node-FC model** instead of direct User-Coin. Creates accumulated assets on the User side (an upgraded Node), not just a coin balance that can go to zero.
* **Differentiator 2: Physical anchor through GPS-verified Peer Meet.** The physical characteristics of the real world are integrated into the digital network.
* **Differentiator 3: Three-layer FC immutability.** FC only produced from Nodes, balances immutable, cannot be bought or sold through internal markets. An asset that cannot be accumulated through capital — only through real activity.
* **Differentiator 4: Immutable accountability.** Every commitment comes with a self-enforced penalty mechanism. Legal binding terms, not communications.
