Vital Redemption: Converting Distributed Intelligence Units to Fiat
Vital redemption is the process by which enterprises convert accumulated Vital DIU into fiat currency through MeshNativeExchange. The redemption rate is locked at initiation, and funds settle across ACH, SWIFT, SEPA, FedWire, or RTP — fully audited and reconciled.
Vital redemption allows enterprises to convert accumulated Vital (DIU) into fiat currency. Enterprises do not buy Vital — they earn it as their infrastructure consumes mesh compute. When accumulated Vital reaches a threshold, it is redeemed through MeshNativeExchange via the Vital settlement engine.
Redemption Process
Accumulate Vital
Vital accrues automatically as your mesh-native applications consume routing, storage, inference, and privacy enforcement capacity.
Submit Redemption Request
Initiate a redemption through the Enterprise Dashboard or API. The current Vital-to-fiat rate is locked at this moment — protecting you from rate fluctuation during processing.
Compliance Verification
MeshNativeExchange verifies the redemption against KYC/AML records, sanctions lists, and your institution's pre-authorized settlement parameters.
Fiat Invoice Generation
The settlement processor generates a signed, auditable fiat invoice with full line-item provenance — routing, storage, inference, privacy tier, and total Vital consumed.
Bank Rail Settlement
Funds are delivered to your nominated bank account via your selected rail — ACH, SWIFT, SEPA, FedWire, or RTP — and reconciled against your treasury ledger.
Redemption Is Irrevocable
Once a Vital redemption is submitted to the settlement processor, it is irrevocable. The rate is locked at initiation, and the settlement proceeds through the selected banking rail to finality. This mirrors the finality semantics of the underlying payment rails (RTP sub-second, FedWire same-day, ACH 1–2 business days).
