11.4 Payments & Payouts
Problem
Payment systems often separate:
- Authentication
- Authorization
- Settlement
This creates ambiguity and intermediaries.
PTERI Approach
- Payment intent is created
- Wallet signs exact parameters
- Transaction is broadcast and settled on Litecoin
Identity, intent, and authorization are proven together.
This works for:
- User payments
- Merchant payouts
- Automated disbursements
