Blockchain Integration

Nawal integrates directly with the BelizeChain runtime, using Substrate pallets for participant identity, staking coordination, and reward settlement.

Identity Pallet

Participation in federated rounds is tied to on-chain identity. The connector verifies accounts before accepting contributions:

from blockchain import IdentityVerifier

verifier = IdentityVerifier(blockchain_rpc="ws://localhost:9944")
result = await verifier.verify_identity(account_id="r1...")

print(result["is_verified"])        # KYC verification state
print(result["reputation_score"])   # 0–100

Identity records expose a display name, verification level, and reputation score used for participant weighting.

Staking Pallet

Validators that contribute AI work stake DALLA, and PoUW scoring (quality, timeliness, honesty) feeds into reward settlement by the staking and consensus pallets.

Mesh Network Coordination

For off-grid deployments, Nawal ships a mesh network client that announces federated rounds over the Mesh pallet:

from blockchain import MeshNetworkClient

mesh = MeshNetworkClient(peer_id="validator-01", listen_port=9090)
await mesh.start()

peers = await mesh.discover_peers()
await mesh.announce_fl_round(
    round_id="round-42",
    dataset_name="district-credit-data",
    target_participants=5,
    deadline=3600,
    min_stake=1000,
    reward_pool=50000,
)
