Convert The Employment Commons Work WORK to Newton NEWT

The $WORK Rewards (“$WORK”) of the Employment Commons (the “Commons”) aligns economic incentives between Commons Members to support the future of the independent, self-sovereign worker. There are two types of Members in the Commons; Employee and Coalition. - Employee Members are independent workers actively co-employed through the ecosystem - Coalition Members provide new Member referrals, technology and/or services to the Commons - Initially, Employee Memberships are limited to those who are qualified to work in the United States - The Commons anticipates eventual global expansion - All U.S. and international persons, organizations, and DAOs are qualified to be Coalition Members The Commons economic model allows for Stakeholder Capitalism in a collectively owned, for-purpose (and profit) digital employment cooperative, as discussed in the Opolis Off-White Paper. $WORK is designed as a Cooperative Patronage Rewards token used as a means of incentivizing stakeholders to engage in certain patronage activities deemed valuable by the Commons. $WORK tokens are a unit of account to determine the amount of patronage profits a Member is entitled to if/when they are declared by the Commons. Functionally, the Commons offers Employee Members the ability to: - Reap the benefits of group purchasing power for reduced costs on products and services (e.g. group healthcare insurance, technology tools, and shared services) - Share in profits with other stakeholders based on patronage - Become an “owner” in a shared network that protects its Members’ best interests - Participate in the governance of the Commons Members earn $WORK for patronage in the Commons ecosystem via: - Using the Commons for the processing of payroll, employment benefits, and shared services as an Employee Member - Direct referrals of new Employee Members - Staking rewards by staking $WORK - The Commons Trustee, Opolis, Inc., as a team member, contributor, advisor, or shareholder

What Is Newton Protocol (NEWT)? Newton Protocol is the decentralized policy layer that makes onchain compliance verifiable, programmable, and automatic. Builders define how digital assets can move by setting rules that check every transaction for things like sanctions, identity, or risk before it goes through. By turning compliance into code, Newton Protocol replaces manual reviews with real-time, upgradeable enforcement. Financial institutions, stablecoin issuers, RWA platforms, and AI agents can now meet evolving regulatory requirements directly at the point of transaction without giving up transparency, privacy, or decentralization. Builder defined rules, called policies, use both onchain and offchain data to decide whether a transaction should be approved or blocked. A decentralized network of operators, secured through Ethereum restaking and NEWT, evaluates each policy inside Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) and generates proofs to show the checks were done correctly. The results can be verified by anyone through the Newton Explorer. NEWT is the native utility token and is used for: *Fees for compliance compute. *Rewards for network operators and delegated staking. *Governance votes that shape the protocol. Who Are the Founders of Newton Protocol? Newton Protocol is the vision of Magic Labs and its co-founders Sean Li and Jaemin Jin. Magic Labs created the first embedded wallet in the crypto industry, helping 200K+ developers create 50M+ wallets to get onchain with trailblazing customers such as Polymarket, Forbes, Helium, WalletConnect, Mattel, and Naver. The Magic Newton Foundation is responsible for driving adoption, enabling open development and supporting decentralization of the Newton Protocol. Management of the Magic Newton Foundation is led by an independent board of directors. What Makes Newton Protocol Unique? Newton Protocol introduces compliance-as-code, a way to make rules verifiable and enforceable directly onchain. Just as smart contracts made execution programmable and oracles made data composable, Newton Protocol makes compliance itself part of the transaction process. Its policy layer, operator network, and oracle adapters work together to check every transaction against defined rules, producing cryptographic proofs that confirm those checks were done correctly. Builders can write and update policies in familiar languages like Rego, while decentralized operators evaluate them and verify results in real time. Because Newton Protocol is fully composable, any dapp, stablecoin, or AI wallet can integrate its policy client to enforce business or regulatory rules automatically, creating a neutral, decentralized compliance layer that connects institutions, regulators, and autonomous agents through verifiable trust.
