 #### 3.1. Bootstrapping: Biometric DNA Seeding
 
-- **Biological Source:** The user provides a unique biological sample (hair, nail, plant, etc.).
-- **Sequencing:** An external sequencing device converts the sample into a digital DNA sequence (a string of Quadrits). This sequence becomes the "Genomic Master Key."
-- **Key Generation:** The Genomic Master Key is not a private key. It is a master "seed" powering a hierarchical and deterministic key generation algorithm, capable of producing millions of unique, seemingly unrelated sub-keys.
+The system uses biometric inputs to derive cryptographic keys. A master key derived from biometric input generates multiple independent sub-keys.
 
 #### 3.2. Fund Management: The Entangled Parcel Model (UTXO-DNA)
 
 - **One Parcel, One Key:** Each amount received on the wallet is treated as a distinct "parcel" (similar to a UTXO). Each parcel is locked by a nearly unique sub-key generated by the Genomic Master Key.
-- **Honey Pot Protection:** Compromising a sub-key (e.g., by a malicious smart contract) only grants access to a single parcel. The vast majority of funds remain secure, protected by millions of other uncompromised keys. It is impossible to "drain" the wallet in one go.
+- **Honey Pot Protection:** Compromising a sub-key (e.g., by a malicious smart contract) only grants access to a single parcel. The vast majority of funds remain secure, protected by millions of other uncompromised keys. The architecture is designed so that compromising one sub-key limits exposure to a single partition.
 
 #### 3.3. Secure Communication: The Optical Matrix (Air-Gapped)
 
-- **Physical Isolation:** The wallet has no physical connections (USB, Wi-Fi, etc.). It uses an optical (light-based) protocol to transmit signed transactions.
-- **Payload Encryption:** Data transmitted via light is itself end-to-end encrypted, ensuring double protection.

 ### 2. Motivation
 
-In the face of quantum computing threats, post-quantum cryptography is non-negotiable. Rather than simply adopting a standard PQC algorithm, Valorium X aims to create a system where security is an emergent property of its structure. MQ cryptography, based on the hardness of solving systems of quadratic equations, offers a robust mathematical foundation. By hybridizing this with our Quadrit system, we create a sovereign, performant, and thematically coherent security mechanism—security by design.
