6 Design Principles

design-knowledge/wifi-sharing-payment-channels-dp6

DP6 - Tamper-proof transaction history via trusted intermediary

Provide the system with a mutually trusted intermediary requiring a transaction history that records a user's data traffic, resource consumption and incurred costs, in order to ensure that connection data cannot be manipulated or corrupted.

design-knowledge/wifi-sharing-payment-channels-dp7

DP7 - Minimize transaction costs

Provide the system with a module to keep transaction costs to a minimum in order to prevent large numbers of micro-payments.

design-knowledge/wifi-sharing-payment-channels-dp8

DP8 - Fee-free instant payments

Provide the system with a module to forgo transaction costs for the execution of instant payments in order to regulate the duration of the connection.

DP9 - Mutually agreed usage cost

Provide the system with a module to set up the transaction in order to enable host and user to mutually agree on the usage cost.

DP11 - Dynamic trust-score accounting

Provide the system with accounting mechanisms using a dynamic trust-score in order to facilitate cooperative host behavior and ensure high service levels by rewarding hosts for cooperation or high availability.

DP13 - Incremental bandwidth with instant payment

Provide the system with a protocol that incrementally increases provided bandwidth together with instant payment functionalities that transfer outstanding payments immediately to unlock further resources, in order to prevent fraudulent behavior.

An Architecture Using Payment Channel Networks for Blockchain-based Wi-Fi Sharing

The authors derive a comprehensive collection of 14 design principles for workable Wi-Fi sharing networks and propose a reference architecture combining a blockchain (for trust and immutable records) with payment channel networks (for fast, cheap micro-payments), augmenting current approaches with adequate accounting mechanisms.
