2. TokenTEQ Architecture & Roadmap

2.1 Core Blockchain Domains & Subdomains

TokenTEQ operates a structured Web3 subdomain system, enabling the issuance of subdomain tokens under three primary blockchain domains:

ID.XDC → Identity & asset tokenization.
KYC.XDC → Compliance verification.
CERT.XDC → Document certification.

Each subdomain token acts as a blockchain identifier for real-world, digital, and identity assets. These tokens can store metadata and serve as a reference point for other tokens via hash-based linking.

Primary Domains & Their Functions

Primary Domain	Function
ID.XDC	Issues subdomain tokens for identifying real-world, digital, and identity assets. These tokens are unique, immutable, and verifiable via blockchain.
KYC.XDC	Provides subdomain tokens for KYC verification of individuals, businesses, and entities. These tokens store compliance metadata for regulatory audits.
CERT.XDC	Issues subdomain tokens for document certification using AI-powered verification and blockchain-based authenticity records.

Example Subdomain Tokens

A verified vehicle tokenized under ID.XDC:
001.car.auto.real.ide.x.us.v1.id.xdc
A business KYC verification token under KYC.XDC:
001.fin.x.kyc.ide.x.uk.v1.kyc.xdc
A notarized legal contract issued under CERT.XDC:
001.contract.x.legal.doc.x.in.v1.cert.xdc

Every subdomain token allows metadata storage, which can include ownership details, verification timestamps, and external references (e.g., documents, licenses, compliance proofs). Non-subdomain tokens (e.g., NFTs, smart contracts) can reference subdomain tokens via their hash data for authentication and proof-of-ownership mechanisms.

3. Tokenization & Subdomain Issuance

3.1 Subdomain Generation & Tokenization

TokenTEQ utilizes a structured process for generating subdomain tokens and previewing tokenization details, ensuring transparency and verification before finalizing minting.

Users select a primary domain (ID.XDC, KYC.XDC, CERT.XDC) and generate structured subdomains.
Each generated subdomain follows a standardized naming format based on category selections.
Metadata can be optionally added for verification and certification.
Users must preview the tokenization details before finalizing minting.

3.2 Corporate Verification & Issuer Inclusion

Businesses and corporations can verify ownership through the TokenTEQ system by obtaining a .teq subdomain token, allowing them to act as a verified issuer within ID.XDC, KYC.XDC, and CERT.XDC subdomains.

Verified Business Subdomain: [company_name].teq
Issuer Inclusion Example:
A company as an issuer in an ID.XDC asset token:
001.car.auto.real.ide.tokenteq.us.v1.id.xdc
Verified businesses can embed registration, ownership records, and certifications as metadata.

3.3 Predefined & Custom Fields

TokenTEQ provides flexibility by allowing users to either select standardized field outputs or manually input custom classifications.

Users can select from predefined Type, Category, Subcategory, and Class fields.
Alternatively, users can enter custom values using the "- custom -" selection.
Custom fields will be formatted as: x_custom-input

Example Custom Input Formatting:

Standardized Selection: 001.fac.bio.acc.ide.x.us.v1.id.xdc
Custom Input: 001.x.drivers-license.acc.ide.dmv.us.v1.id.xdc

This system ensures flexibility for clients while maintaining a standardized and structured output for Web3 domain consistency.

4. Product & Asset Token Issuance (teq.xdc)

4.1 Blockchain-Verified Product & Asset Identity

TokenTEQ provides a decentralized method for verifying and managing product and asset identities using subdomain-based identifiers. Each product or asset is assigned a unique blockchain-verified subdomain under teq.xdc.

Each product/asset receives a subdomain-based identifier (e.g., US0000000000.asset.01.teq.xdc).
Metadata storage options include:
- Public: Metadata is stored on-chain and directly accessible.
- Encrypted: Dual-key access system ensures secure storage and controlled access.
Subdomains are registered via Web3 authentication, ensuring ownership validation.

4.2 Token Issuance for Assets & Products

TokenTEQ employs smart contracts to issue blockchain tokens tied to product and asset subdomains, enabling secure digital representation of real-world and digital assets.

Smart contracts generate asset-backed tokens upon successful subdomain issuance.
Enables fractional ownership and token-based asset management.
Supports multiple asset types, with unique identifiers for each category.

Example Tokenized Asset Identifiers:

Real Estate Token: US123456789.REALESTATE.teq.xdc
Vehicle Token: VIN987654321.VEHICLE.teq.xdc
Product Token: PRODUCT00001.GADGET.teq.xdc

4.3 Metadata & Hash Referencing for External Tokens

Each subdomain token allows additional metadata storage for:

Ownership history and tracking
Verification timestamps
External references, such as legal documents and compliance proofs

Non-subdomain tokens (e.g., NFTs, smart contracts, regulatory tokens) can reference subdomain tokens via their hash data for authentication and proof-of-ownership mechanisms.

5. QR Code Integration for Verification & Lookup

TokenTEQ integrates QR code technology to enable seamless verification and lookup of tokenized assets, ensuring easy authentication for both users and businesses.

Each tokenized asset is assigned a unique QR code for verification.
Users can verify products and assets by:
- Scanning the QR code with a mobile device.
- Manually entering the asset’s subdomain for verification.
QR codes are linked to on-chain metadata, ensuring tamper-proof authentication.
The system supports a reverse lookup function, allowing users to retrieve asset details even without a QR code.
TokenTEQ's QR code provides both encrypted and unencrypted verification options, depending on user preferences.

5.1 QR Code Referencing & Hash Validation

QR codes not only enable instant verification but also serve as a means of referencing additional metadata, including:

Proof of authenticity and ownership
Linked compliance or legal documentation
Hash-based validation for external records

5.2 Patent Pending: QR Code Integration

QR code integration is part of TokenTEQ’s patent-pending system verification, ensuring assets can be validated efficiently within the blockchain ecosystem. This innovation enhances transparency, security, and usability for all tokenized assets.

6. AI-Driven Document Verification & Certification

6.1 AI-Powered Document Verification

TokenTEQ utilizes artificial intelligence to verify and certify documents, ensuring authenticity and fraud prevention. The AI-driven verification process leverages multiple advanced technologies:

Optical Character Recognition (OCR): Extracts and digitizes document text.
Natural Language Processing (NLP): Analyzes textual content for authenticity.
Named Entity Recognition (NER): Identifies and validates key data points.
Cross-referencing with external databases: Ensures accurate ownership verification.
Manual review option: AI-detected inconsistencies trigger human verification.

6.2 Smart Contract-Linked Certification

TokenTEQ enables smart contract-based document certification, ensuring verified documents are securely recorded on the blockchain. Upon successful AI verification, the system issues Certification Subdomain Tokens (CERT_) linked to the document.

Each verified document is assigned a unique certification token (e.g., certID.cert.teq.xdc).
Certification triggers fund release from the smart contract, ensuring financial transactions only occur for authenticated documents.
Certified documents remain immutable and verifiable on the blockchain.
Future expansion will integrate government and enterprise verification systems via CERT.XDC.

6.3 Metadata Referencing & Compliance Tracking

Each certified document can include additional metadata, such as:

Owner details and timestamps
Digital fingerprinting for verification
Hash-referencing for cross-chain compliance tracking

This ensures that certified records remain tamper-proof and can be referenced by third-party organizations, compliance agencies, and legal entities for auditing and validation.
