CAD001: Convex Architecture Convex Architecture Documents Draws the line between the on-chain CVM (global consensus, root of trust) and the off-chain Lattice (unbounded CRDT data) while forcing them to share one encoding, one hash function, and one cryptographic identity. That shared substrate is what lets value and data flow between layers without the bridges, wrapping, and trust assumptions that fragment other stacks.
CAD005: CVM Execution Convex Architecture Documents Specifies the deterministic state-transition function State' = f(State, Block) over a Merkle-tree global state, so any peer can re-derive consensus from a single 32-byte root hash. This is what allows fast peer sync and cheap state proofs instead of replaying every block from genesis.
CAD015: Peer Communications Convex Architecture Documents Defines an asynchronous, transport-agnostic message format where every payload is a CAD3 cell and branches can be omitted for deltas — so a huge state can be transmitted as a tiny diff when the receiver already holds the rest. Gossip and lattice sync ride the same efficient wire.
CAD016: Peer Staking Convex Architecture Documents Separates operational peer stake (slashed if the hot key leaks) from delegated stake (slashed only if the controller account is compromised), so coin holders can back good operators without running infrastructure themselves. Cleaner fault model than Ethereum validator staking, where one key loss loses everything.
