| RWA | Real-world asset — an off-chain asset represented on-chain. Here, income-producing compute. |
| IXD | The BEP-20 token representing fractional ownership of IX RWA assets. |
| NAV | Net Asset Value — the total on-chain value of assets under management. |
| Reserve coverage | A transparency ratio comparing on-chain asset value to capital deployed. Not an oracle-attested proof of reserve. |
| InvestmentManager | Per-asset contract that accepts stablecoin and releases IXD from the asset’s pool. |
| DistributionManager | Per-asset contract that pays revenue to holders via Merkle claims. |
| Merkle claim | A gas-efficient distribution method where holders claim with a cryptographic proof against an on-chain root. |
| Money-path | The end-to-end flow of value; IX RWA requires it to be derived from verified on-chain events. |
| Beacon proxy | An upgradeable-contract pattern letting the implementation change without changing addresses. |
| Auto-reinvest | Compounding distributions back into ownership instead of withdrawing. |
| Phase-2 redeploy | The audited mainnet redeployment where canonical chain, pricing, and share-class model are finalized. |
| Agent Gateway | The hosted, read-only MCP endpoint for AI agents to query protocol data. |
