Porto Improvement Proposals (PIPs)

PIPs are the design documents for the Porto protocol — Porto Chain, the PRT token, stream accounting, payouts, node operation, and governance — written in an EIP/RFC-style format. See PIP-1 for the full process, PIP types, and status lifecycle.

Start with PIP-2 for the non-technical overview (the problem, the solution, and how the rest of this series fits together) before reading the Standards Track specifications.

Reading order

PIP-1  (process)
  └─ PIP-2  (overview — problem, solution, phased rollout)
       ├─ PIP-3  (PRT token: issuance, redemption, gas/fee model)
       ├─ PIP-4  (streaming + on-chain stream accounting; Beta S3 architecture)
       │    └─ PIP-5  (payout splitter — consumes finalized StreamEvents)
       ├─ PIP-6  (node operator staking — secures PIP-4's V1 attestation model)
       └─ PIP-7  (governance — parameters referenced by PIP-3 through PIP-6)

Numbering ranges

See PIP-1 §Numbering Convention for reserved ranges (Meta, Informational, Token, Stream/Attestation, Node/Staking, Governance) for future proposals.

Status

This series is a working Draft set, compiled from internal product and engineering discussion. Figures, splits, and parameter defaults are subject to revision as the protocol and business model mature — see each PIP's own Status field for its individual state.
