Building the Future of Decentralized Licensing
Version 1.0 August 2025
Issued by CrownThrive, LLC — CHLOM Governance Division
1.0 Introduction
CHLOM™ (Compliance Hybrid Licensing & Ownership Model) is a patentable, AI-powered, blockchain-anchored, machine learning-enhanced protocol designed to automate licensing, override attribution, revenue splits, compliance enforcement, smart treasury operations, and behavioral identity across digital and physical ecosystems.
Currently being piloted through Melanin Magic Suites™ (MM Suites) and set for rollout across the entire CrownThrive™ ecosystem, CHLOM is the foundational architecture for creating the world's first decentralized override and licensing substrate with integrated DeFi features.
This whitepaper introduces builders and developers to the CHLOM Fingerprint ID System, Machine Learning Risk Engines, Tokenized Licensing-as-a-Service (TLaaS), CHLOM Licensing Exchange (LEX), Smart Treasury, and Override Smart Contracts—while laying the groundwork for our future CHLOM-native Substrate chain and CHM/CHLOM tokens.
All development participation is gated through the CrownThrive Incubator. Developers must be licensed to access our CHLOM development framework.
2.0 CHLOM as a Meta-Protocol Framework
CHLOM is not a single application. It is a multi-layered meta-protocol consisting of:
- Compliance Layer — Automates override enforcement, subsidy flows, and governance
- Licensing Layer — Binds roles, permissions, and rights to Fingerprint IDs and licensing NFTs
- Data Layer — Feeds machine learning models for compliance scoring
- Smart Contract Layer — Handles override routing, licensing validations, and DAO voting
- DeFi Layer — Governs Smart Treasury operations and incentivized staking via CHM/CHLOM tokens
- Audit + Oracles Layer — Syncs real-time activity with CHLOM Fingerprint identities and triggers flagging
- CHLOM Substrate Layer (Future) — Custom blockchain that governs all above
CHLOM will become the governing protocol for:
- Franchises
- Creators
- Platforms
- Service providers
- Licensing agencies
- DAO-anchored marketplaces
- Decentralized finance campaigns and stake-driven licensing enforcement
3.0 Licensing Exchange (CHLOM LEX)
The CHLOM Licensing Exchange (LEX) is the live registry of all active Fingerprint IDs and their corresponding licensing metadata. It supports:
- License minting as NFTs
- Revocation, expiration, and tier upgrades
- Attribution of override rights
- Listing of partner and creator licenses for sublicensing
In Phase 2, CHLOM LEX will include decentralized browsing and verification with role-based access permissions and Proof-of-License (PoL) oracle verifications.
4.0 Smart Treasury Engine
CHLOM includes a programmable Smart Treasury that:
- Routes override splits using encoded revenue rules
- Issues subsidies and franchise payouts based on triggers
- Automatically burns or mints tokens (CHM/CHLOM) based on liquidity needs
- Integrates with DeFi staking to offer rewards for compliant actors
All treasury movements are governed by CHM governance proposals and validated by on-chain CHLOM compliance scores.
5.0 DeFi Integration and TLaaS Model
Tokenized Licensing-as-a-Service (TLaaS) allows:
- Fingerprint IDs to function as income-generating assets
- Sub-licensing agreements to be listed, purchased, and enforced on-chain
- Defi staking pools for CHM holders to back override obligations and earn yield from license flows
The CHLOM platform is designed to plug into broader DeFi protocols for:
- LP staking
- License vaults
- Royalty-backed lending
- Subscription NFT insurance
6.0 CHLOM Substrate Chain + Tokens
We are building a CHLOM-native Substrate blockchain to host:
- Native governance for overrides
- NFT licensing exchange (CHLOM LEX)
- CHLOM DLA (Decentralized Licensing Authority)
- Real-time treasury execution
- On-chain smart audits
6.1 Tokens
- CHM Token — Governance, staking, voting, DeFi rewards
- CHLOM Token — Usage-based operational token: licensing fees, override transactions, contributor incentives
Initial minting will occur on Substrate testnet and migrate to a bridged Ethereum/Polkadot-compatible chain.

Public development is permissioned through licensing. All forks, replications, and independent builds are strictly prohibited unless licensed.
10.0 Call to Builders
CHLOM is the evolution of trust. It's time to make compliance scalable, overrides automatic, and licensing unbreakable.
You're not just building software — you're building the backbone of decentralized franchise automation, royalty enforcement, and wealth access.
We invite builders. We protect IP. We build for equity.
